Elaine is amazing!
Elaine was wonderful to work with. She did such a great job with my bridal hair and makeup, and I was so happy with how everything turned out. It was a very windy day in Key Largo, and somehow my hair stayed looking great all night. Very happy with my experience with Elaine and recommend her to any brides looking for hair and makeup in the Keys! Thank you, Elaine!

Love Elaine!!
Elaine and her team did such a great job with our hair and makeup! Makeup turned out Perfect! And lasted all day and night! Given how humid it was that day and how strongly my hair held my heavy veil.. it held through the night! And my bridesmaids hair and makeup was so pretty too! They worked so efficiently too! Highly recommend her!

Elaine made me feel so beautiful on my day!!
Elaine is so incredibly talented at what she does. I have never felt so beautiful in my life. She had such a fun and outgoing personality and was great to have as all the girls were getting ready! My makeup was incredible! She made my eyes pop and did the perfect glowy and bronzey look! I was so worried about my naturally curly hair getting frizzy and falling out and it did not move! My hair was stunning and exactly how I wanted it! I couldn’t have picked a better hair and makeup stylist! Highly highly recommend her to anyone!!

Definitely recommend
Elaine did my makeup & hair for my wedding at Key Largo Lighthouse on May 29th. She did an amazing job! She also did my bridesmaids hair & makeup and everyone loved it. The makeup she did was perfect for this south Florida heat it did not feel heavy at all but looked amazing! Thank you so much!

Such modern, beautiful makeup and hair!
Our wedding was in the Florida Keys and we are from Minnesota so it was a destination wedding for everyone. The first time I met Elaine was on my wedding day. We never had a pre-hair and makeup trial, but it didn’t matter. She knocked it out of the park! By her responsiveness to all my questions before the wedding and following her Instagram, seeing all of the other beautiful looks she has created on other brides just made me so confident in my choice. She did not disappoint. I feel like I just gave her a vague description of what I wanted and she read my mind completely and executed exactly how I wanted. I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup, my bridesmaids loved their hair and makeup it was wonderful! Highly recommend!!!!!!!

Amazing Hair and Makeup
Elaine took my vague idea of what I wanted to look like on my wedding day and helped me to narrow down what I wanted. Then she executed it perfectly. She is quick, friendly and professional. My makeup and hair were flawless throughout the night.

Talented Vendor!
Elaine was absolutely amazing! Arrived on time and was very professional. She worked very hard to make each of us happy! She literally will do anything you want done and execute what you envision perfectly and quickly! If you are looking for a make up/hair artist the day of your wedding she is worth it! Also her Husband is a photographer for weddings and partners with Elaine! Unfortunately I didn’t know this, but have seen his work! Definitely worth asking her more information about this when you are looking for your vendors! Again, thank you Elaine for making my special day even more special! You are extremely talented!

Elaine made my day so special!
After seeing Elaine’s work on Instagram I knew I had to have her for my wedding makeup and hair! Not only is she the best at beauty, she was so kind, and fun to work with! She brought my vision to life and my hair and makeup was even better than what I imagined! She even offered to take some bridal getting ready photos for me and they are stunning! So if you need a photographer as well I highly recommend her team for that as well! Thank you again Elaine ❤️❤️
