Amazing Bridal Makeup Experience with Genna!

I had the pleasure of working with Genna for my bridal makeup, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! From the moment we started, she was incredibly sweet and attentive, really taking the time to listen to exactly what I wanted. The final look was even better than I had imagined—my makeup was flawless, stayed in place all night, and I received countless compliments throughout the event. Whether you're looking for a natural look or something more dramatic, like I went for with full glam, Genna can do it all. She uses high-quality products that not only made my skin look beautiful but also gave me insights into products I now use in my daily routine. What I really appreciated was that she cares about both the final look and your skin, which made me feel extra confident and cared for. I highly recommend Genna to anyone looking for top-tier makeup artistry. She’s talented, professional, and truly passionate about her craft. If you want makeup that stays perfect all day and night, she’s your go-to!

Luxurious Expert Perfection

I have never felt as beautiful and confident as I did on my wedding day and I owe it all the Genna and Alisher. I could not recommend this entire experience enough. Each of my girls left raving over how much they loved getting ready with Genna, Alisher, and Braeden. It was so comfortable like we had been friends for years. I had a large wedding party and a tight timeline, but Genna, Alisher, and Braeden took care of us with the utmost care. They were punctual, efficient, and produced stunning work that kept compliments coming throughout the entire day. They listened to and respected the requests and feedback of each of my girls. I have been in wedding parties where all of the bridesmaids get the same standardized hair and make up services that tend to feel rushed, but our experience with Genna, Alisher, and Braeden was so far from that. Everyone received individualized care and were treated like they were the most important person of the day. Whether you knew exactly how you wanted things done or had no idea where to start, they were there to guide and support you with their expertise. They executed it all perfectly.

Genna is the Very Best!

I had the most amazing experience with Genna! I reached out to her in a panic a few weeks before my wedding because my other makeup artist bailed on me. Genna responded right away and was thankfully available on my date! I live out of state so I was not able to have a makeup trial, but I had the upmost confidence in Genna and let me tell you… my makeup turned out so incredible and the photos look amazing!

Also, it was so great spending my morning with Genna! She is so fun, sweet, and personable. A bride’s hair and makeup artist are such important parts of the day not only because of the services, but because they become a key part of the memories made that day. Genna is so fun and it was like hanging out with a good friend all morning.

The other makeup artist cancelling on me was a blessing. Also my wedding was in November so I got lucky that Genna was available, but don’t wait!! Secure your date with her!!

So happy with my wedding glam!

I found Genna on The Knot and I am so happy I found her. She made me feel comfortable from day one and listened to my ideas about what I was looking for. My make up turned out exactly how I wanted and I received nothing but compliments on it. It stayed on all day and even stayed on through many joyous tears! I highly recommend Genna Ellis Bridal Beauty. Genna is amazing and you will love the way you look!

Have never felt so gorgeous or comfortable!

100000/10!!! I have never felt more stunning or comfortable with a MUA. Genna is not only incredibly talented at her skills, but is also SO fun and nice. Getting my makeup done made me feel so special for our wedding, and we laughed and chit chatted the entire time; it felt like my best friend was doing my makeup 🥹 everything about my experience with her was amazing!! Even down to the little minis to keep me looking pretty all day and night. Even with 100 degree weather in Apple Hill, my face stayed on all day and evening!

Beautiful, flawless makeup for a special day

Genna did my daughter's make up for a formal event. She has a calm and friendly manner that put my daughter at ease immediately. Genna listened carefully as my daughter explained the look she was hoping for and the "finished product" was exactly what she described. Throughout the makeup application process Genna carefully selected the right products to use and checked in with my daughter to see if she felt comfortable and satisfied along the way. Genna's talent in makeup application was obvious and far exceeded other makeup artists we have worked with in the past. My daughter's makeup was flawless. We will certainly ask Genna to work with us again for future family events.

Sweet, kind, lovely and super professional!!

Genna goes above and beyond!! You can really tell she wants to make sure your vision comes true! Even when you are unsure on the direction you are going in, or if what you wanted originally didn’t work out! She literally held my hand throughout this process and made sure I felt extra special on such an important day!! 100% recommend and will be using her for future events.

Amazing Experience, flawless results!

Me and my 7 bridesmaids were so happy with Genna’s work. She managed to give us all exactly what we wanted, while making sure the looks were still cohesive. I can’t stress enough how stunning everyone looked in photos! I also found that the makeup lasted so much longer than I was expected - through all the dancing and cheek kisses! I touched up once with some powder and lipstick from the touch up kit she gave me, and I was good to go. I would definitely recommend hiring Genna.

Wonderful Experience on a Very Special Day

Genna did the makeup for my maid of honor, my mother-in-law and myself on my big day. Genna was really fun and a calming influence, which I really needed. I really enjoyed having Genna do my makeup. Genna also did a trial makeup session prior to my wedding which I strongly recommend! Thanks Genna for making me look so beautiful in person and in our photos!
