    A Fairytale Day with Fairytale make up and hair!

    I had an absolutely fantastic time with Alicia and Frances for my big wedding day! I had them help with 3 bridesmaids hair and make up, 1 SIL make up and hair for a flower girl. They were amazing and truly made everyone shine on my big day. They were punctual and also flexible with my constantly triple checking the scheduling! HA! I also would recommend doing the trial run! I had a trial run with hair and make up and it helped me figure out I actually wanted more make up than I had realized. I couldn't have asked for a more professional and supportive team on the day of!

    Never felt more beautiful!

    Fairytale Hair and Makeup made me feel like the most beautiful bride ever! I never knew I could look like such a princess. My husband is still talking about how lovely I looked when he first saw me. It BLEW HIS MIND! Tara was amazing, responsive, helpful, calm, and honestly so great to have by my side. She made sure I looked absolutely perfect. I had an initial trail and completely changed my final look the day of the wedding. She took it in stride and knocked it out of the park. Thank you Tara and the entire Fairytale team for making my wedding dreams come true.
