Erica truly makes your wedding day all that you dream it will be. She has an amazing, calming presence that makes you feel like you are the most important person in the room. Her focus on relaxation sets the stage for the wedding day and assures there is zero stress in anyway. Further, she is an expert at what she does and has a focus on clean, natural beauty. She made me and all of my bridesmaids look like elevated versions of ourselves. I had 9 girls, each with different hair/skin, styles and preferences, and each left the room saying how happy they were with how they looked. This is no easy feat!! Above all, she took the time to work with me throughout my entire engagement period to truly get to know me and understand my style. Erica recommended me to new skincare products that will forever be a part of my skincare routine. I am so grateful to have had Erica with me on my wedding day and would recommend her services over and over again!

I booked Erica as my makeup artist for my wedding and she is truly an artist. Not only is she wildly talented at what she does, she is so kind and really listens to what you want. Erica made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself on my wedding day and I could not be more grateful to her. She was so easy to work with and checked in with me throughout the wedding planning process. All my bridesmaids loved her and her 2nd artists work too! I would recommend Erica to anyone wanting a truly customized and tailored makeup look!

I have so many good things to say about Erica that I almost don’t even know where to start. I like wearing makeup but don’t wear much, so I felt really nervous about finding a makeup artist to work with for my wedding. Thankfully, Erica came highly recommended from a friend (who looked gorgeous on her own wedding day!). Erica and I hit it off immediately during our first conversation– she’s so easy to talk to and it was really clear from the beginning that she goes above and beyond to make her brides feel comfortable and special.

Erica is such a talented artist. I didn’t really even know how to articulate the kind of look that I wanted, but Erica asked me a lot of questions and made sure I was comfortable the whole time– it felt really collaborative and is just one more example of how Erica is totally focused on her brides having a great experience. On my wedding day, I truly felt like the best version of myself. She made my skin look absolutely flawless, and I didn’t even feel like I was wearing a lot of makeup! She also does the most amazing lashes. Erica did my makeup for my rehearsal dinner the night before too– we did a completely different fun, summery look which I also loved! I never thought I would be so happy with my makeup, and Erica exceeded all of my expectations on both nights of my wedding weekend. Erica was also amazing with my mom, who never wears makeup and gets really nervous about it. My mom felt completely at ease with Erica and was so happy with how she looked. In addition to me and my mom, Erica did my two sisters’ and my mother-in-law’s makeup on the day of the wedding, and everyone looked stunning.

I also used Erica’s beck and call services so she stayed until after our ceremony, and I am SO glad she was there (and would highly, highly recommend this!). My wedding day was hot, humid, and windy, but Erica kept me and the whole wedding party touched up during photos and before and after the ceremony so everyone looked and felt their best-- and my makeup stayed in place all night, through lots of dancing! Every time I look at our photographs, I’m blown away again by Erica’s skill.

Not only is Erica an incredible artist, she’s also an incredible person. You spend a ton of time on the day of your wedding with your makeup artist, and Erica brings the kind of energy you want around– she is calming, supportive, funny, and kind, and is so fun to be around. My whole family adores her and I feel like I gained a friend as a result! If you are considering working with Erica, do not hesitate– she is truly the best and I feel so lucky to have found her.

As a 2021 bride doing it on the quick, I was hesitant that I would find an artist that fit my needs. Erica was easy to reach through email, and followed up with a call. She begins by discussing YOU. What is your skin regimen, what are you looking for, dress, hair, flowers, location, all the details like you are sharing for the first time with your maid of honor, and you get all the excitement too.

Erica is an artist. She starts with a blank palette and builds, accentuating your face as you express your vision and she interprets. You get access to her leading up to the big day and all her expertise that she holds.

I wanted a natural, effortless look that photographed well and I got exactly that, and more. Not to mention, the pamper session!

Your wedding day is a lot of work for a bride with how to hold the bouquet, walk slowly, smile, head down for the veil, tears, touch ups, and all the fun that comes after. I felt so relaxed and ready to go when the time came!

Erica is talented and thoughtful. I could not imagine my day without her.

Extra: Erica is a lash MASTER

Erica is the most wonderful, attentive, and talented makeup artist by far! I felt so incredibly lucky to work with Erica, she will work with you to make sure she gets your makeup exactly the way you want it. The pre-bridal face massage with the quartz roller, jade roller was amazing, it made me feel so calm, she even provided a touch up kit which had everything you would need, and a sweet note from Erica. Thank you so much, my bridesmaids were in awe of your talent, and I could not have looked more beautiful on my wedding day!!!

I truly don’t have enough words to describe how incredible Erica is- both as a makeup artist but more importantly, as a human. I had a lot of emotions surrounding the whole “getting ready” experience as I lost my mom four years ago and really dreaded the idea of missing her presence so acutely on such a momentous day. I relayed those fears to Erica during our first conversation and when I tell you I felt mothered by her the morning of my wedding, I don’t say that lightly. She was a calming, powerful presence for me. She made me feel beautiful and seen and cared for- and I honestly cannot imagine my day without her.
As a makeup artist you cannot find anyone better. I would bet any worldly possession on that. She is meticulous and gentle: she brings out the natural beauty we uniquely have without overpowering or changing our sense of self. I have never looked nor felt more beautiful than I did on June 25, 2021. Erica brought out the goddess in me and I would get married all over again just to feel as glam as I did.
Erica is a special soul- someone I hope to be connected to for a long while- hiring you was the single best decision I made for my wedding- and it’ll be yours too.

From the very beginning of our correspondence, I knew there was something special about Erica. When I initially reached out to her, I was at a point where I was unsure whether I even wanted to have my makeup done professionally for my wedding (this was on the heels of a disastrous wedding makeup trial with a different vendor where I left looking like a gloppy artificial version of myself and was a bit freaked). As soon as I spoke with Erica over the phone though, I could tell she was going to be different. She was confident (and rightfully so), not only in her considerable expertise, but also in her ability to understand and channel exactly what her clients are envisioning. And boy did she do that!!!! When I tell you I was BLOWN AWAY after my makeup trial with her, that is not an understatement. She did more than just channel what I envisioned, she improved upon it. Drastically. My skin looked flawless but still like *my skin* and my lashes were the perfect amount of "extra" without looking over the top (Erica is the Michelangelo of fake lashes -- trust). It was exactly what I wanted, but better! On top of all that, I have rosacea-prone, reactive skin, and Erica was conscious of making sure each and every product she used was gentle and non-irritating. Fast forward to my wedding: getting my makeup done was one of the most relaxing parts of the morning and the perfect way to set the tone, thanks to Erica's indulgent skin prep routine and overall demeanor (she's the kind of person you want to keep hanging out with after your wedding is over, if you know what I mean). My makeup also lasted the whole night, despite the raging humidity. Long story short, I could go on and on about Erica because Erica goes above and beyond in her work. That's just the kind of person, and artist, that she is. Hiring her will be one of the best wedding-related decisions you make. I guarantee it.

Erica Martell is INCREDIBLE! She was a dream to work with for so many reasons. Not only is she an insanely talented make-up artist, but she is also extremely professional, knowledgeable, funny, calming, responsive & truly cares about each of her brides and goes above & beyond for them. Being a lover of make-up that simply enhances your natural beauty, it was important to me to find the perfect make-up artist and I did. Throughout the entire wedding planning time (which was 2 and a half years for me because we postponed due to COVID), Erica would check in with me and set up times to talk about my vision for how I wanted to look & feel on my wedding, as well as my skin care routine. She even set up a facetime for us to solely discuss skin care, which was SO helpful! She provided product recommendations & spent time explaining to me what I should do to make sure I had the best skin for my wedding day. I used every piece of advice she gave me (& bought every single product she showed me-oops!) and my skin was flawless & glowing on my wedding day. From our trial and conversations she was able to create the bridal look of my dreams. She took so much care and time creating my bridal look that I truly felt (and looked!) like a celebrity. She made me not only look but also feel beautiful. She exudes positivity and makes you feel so comfortable. Starting the day with her was the best energy to go into my wedding with. On top of the beautiful quality of her work, her make up was SO durable and long lasting. During my first conversation with Erica, I had asked if she had any recommendations for hair stylists. She recommended the most amazing hair stylist and what was even better was that they are close friends & love working alongside each other. They created such a happy, welcoming, amazing vibe for all of us getting ready that morning! Together, they pampered me with a back, shoulder, neck, head, arm, hand, and face massage, which was absolutely heavenly! Erica was also so flexible throughout the entire process, even when I had to add extra people to the make-up service last minute. Since I had 13 people who needed services, Erica brought a second make-up artist to help, who was also amazing! It is evident that Erica only brings the best to help her. Every single person in my bridal party LOVED their make-up and said it was the best make-up they have ever had. They also RAVED about how Erica made each of them feel so special & beautiful. Erica’s calming, kind, and positive demeanor, on top of her incredible talent, make her highly qualified and I cannot express how highly I recommend her! She is truly the best of the best!

I am SO thankful I chose Erica for my wedding day beauty services. She provided such a professional, personalized touch to my wedding day and I could not be more thankful. She enhanced all of our best features and rather than making us look like different people, we looked like the best versions of ourselves. She goes above and beyond to make sure her brides are happy, relaxed, and ready for the day. LOVED working with her and would definitely recommend her 10/10 times!

I hired Erica for my originally scheduled 2020 wedding which was postponed to July 2021. Throughout the two year process, Erica kept in touch and we often emailed about skin tips and product recommendations. When I finally met her in person for my trial a month before the wedding, I felt like she had been a friend for years. On the day of my wedding, she was an absolute calming force and made me and my entire bridal party look and feel stunning. I hired Erica to stay on through my first look until the ceremony and she not only touched up my makeup, she helped with falling pieces of hair or holding something for someone. She took the most glorious pics and even took pics of the ceremony from the second floor of the venue and sent to me later on that night. Erica not only made me feel so beautiful , she herself radiates an inner beauty and calm. I feel like I have a friend for life in Erica!
