Could not have had such a spectacular wedding without Dana and Jen. They were efficient, professional, and knew just what we needed every step of the way. I was able to enjoy the day without thinking about one thing except having fun. Worth every cent and more !

Couldn't have done it without her

Dana, was awesome. We hired her for my daughter's wedding. She always answered her her phone whenever I called in a panic. She responded right away to texts and emails. She took our plans and made them so much better. She has all the right connections and pulled things together very quickly. As the mother of the bride, I was able to sit back and enjoy and that meant the world to me. The peace of mind that she gave me and my daughter is priceless. I hope she is available for my other daughter's wedding....whenever that happens :)

Made my wedding day as stress free as possible. We couldn’t have done it without Dana!

Hiring happy hour events was the single greatest decision we made about our wedding. Dana made the process so easy that I always felt like I was forgetting to do something. The wedding day itself was absolutely seamless. Not a single thing went wrong and everything flowed according to plan. This was solely because of happy hour events. Thank you for making our wedding day as great as it was!

Dana was an absolute joy to work with. Not only did she ensure the big day was flawless she also made my life as the bride easy and less stressful as the planning unfolded in rapid fire. She has access to the most incredible vendors in noblewood florals and Brooke our fabulous model make up artist and hair stylist extraordinaire and the worlds best dj messy Marv!! Thanks again Dana.

Get ready for next year we have decided to repeat the event each anniversary from here on out

Dana did my makeup and all my girls makeup and literally went above and beyond to make everyone feel so beautiful. I was feel super defeated after my adult acne flared up the week before my wedding and she literally made my face look absolutely FLAWLESS! She is an angel to work with and by herself was able to do myself, my mom, MIL and 8 bridesmaids in just a few short hours!!! Her knowledge goes so far above just making you look great, she knows this industry INSIDE AND OUT!! If you can get the chance to book her DO IT!! She is INCREDIBLE!! THANK YOU DANA!!!!

A true professional

Our wedding went as smoothly as possible and Dana was a major reason why. We leaned on her experience and connections beforehand and the day-of, and she knew exactly the right strings to pull at the right time.

Dana was amazing! First impressions mean a lot, she was prompt in responding to me with prices and details. When we spoke on the phone she was very informative as well.
She was able to travel to my venue and was flexible with which area I wanted her to work in. She was able to have make up done on all of my five bridesmaids and myself in a timely manner. Nothing was rushed.
I wish I could use her products every day! She used airbrush make up that went on fast, looked natural, was light weight and did not wipe off onto my grooms tan tux. I joked with my bridesmaids the morning after telling them I felt like Mulan: the make up stayed on when I wanted it to but when it was time to wipe it off my face with a make up remover wipe, it came off as it did when Mulan used her sleeve in the Disney movie. (Disney fans will appreciate that comparison.)
She had multiple options for false lashes to choose from (which were included in her rate.)
I really wanted to have a blue color that resembled a beachy look with some tans. She was able to create this look effortlessly. I had complements throughout the night. My groom was happy too ;)
I would highly recommend Dana!
Outstanding work!
