Elegant, Natural Makeup
Magnolia Artistry Makeup did an incredible job with my makeup for my wedding day. I was able to work with Chelsea, who was professional and kind from the moment I met her at my trial. She worked with me to come up with schedule so that she could accommodate my crew and even arrived early. She exceeded my expectations and was able to match the natural, but elegant look I wanted. She also did the makeup for my mother, MIL, and bridesmaids, and they were all absolutely stunning. The makeup lasted all day and looked amazing, but natural, in photos. I felt like by the end of the morning of my wedding I had a friend! I would highly recommend Chelsea and her team to brides looking for a highly professional and friendly team who take great pride in their work and do an exceptional job.

Highly recommend!
The team at magnolia artistry is amazingly talented and they’re all so nice! The pricing is great and they’re super flexible with payments (I did each bridesmaid pay for their own makeup day of) I know some places require a certain amount of services and to pay up front but they don’t they made it so much easier on me.

Magnolia Artistry is truly amazing
Choosing Magnolia Artistry for my wedding day was one of the best decisions I made. Chelsea did a phenomenal job on my bridal makeup as well as for our moms. She listened to exactly what we wanted in each of our looks, and we absolutely loved the partial lash application for a more subtle look.
The team is quick to respond, communicative, professional, flexible, and so sweet. Chelsea is super patient, fun to talk to, kind, and gave great advice on skincare products and a routine that really work. I cannot thank this incredibly talented team enough! 10/10 recommend - you will feel stunning and be so happy you worked with Magnolia Artistry!

Couldn't have asked for better women to work with on my wedding day!
From the moment I started emailing Magnolia Artistry I knew I picked the right company to work with. We had a trial for the hair and make up for myself, and my daughter who was the flower girl. They took just as much time and effort with her look as they did with mine. My bridal party loved their hair and makeup, especially the airbrush makeup. I was worried my daughter's hair wouldn't stay up all night, because she doesn't sit still. I was assured that they would take care of that, and they 100% came through!! I have and will continue to recommend them to everyone.
