Bridal Make Up Bliss

LaVonne was absolutely divine! She was three of the things I love: professional, prompt and precise! LaVonne applied natural, long lasting looks that felt natural to wear to myself and my bridal party. She made the environment comfortable and was conversational which helped with wedding nerves. My bridal party and I received many compliments and felt absolutely beautiful! I will recommend her to everyone I know and will definitely rebook in the future! Thank you LaVonne!

Flawless Glam & an Even Better Experience

I took a chance booking MakeupLove By LaVonne for my out-of-state engagement shoot, based solely on her reviews and work samples—and I was not disappointed 😍 I felt absolutely beautiful walking away from her chair. She was incredibly kind and easy to talk to; it genuinely felt like reconnecting with an old friend. If my wedding weren’t so far away, she would 100% be my bridal party MUA. A true 10/10—loved her and her work. She nailed the perfect level of glam for a sunny, outdoor photoshoot + it lasted ALL DAY.

Very professional and personable.

I’ve had my make up done twice, years apart, for two different weddings as a bridesmaid. She made me feel very comfortable both times and did a very natural but glamorous face beat. I got lots of compliments about how good the make up was.

The Makeup Artist I’d Pick Over and Over Again

I can’t say enough wonderful things about LaVonne! From my trial to the final touch-ups, she made me feel completely at ease. Her attention to detail is unmatched, and from the start I knew she wanted everything to be perfect for us. She’s not only incredibly professional and experienced, but also so personable and easy to chat with — it felt like having a friend do your makeup.

LaVonne handled my large bridal party flawlessly, keeping everything on schedule and making each person look and feel amazing. She was also easy to coordinate with, which made planning stress-free and enjoyable.

The industry is saturated with MUA's, LaVonne brought my vision to life, her pricing was very fair and her skills are beyond incredible. I’m so grateful I found her and would recommend her to any bride without hesitation!

Stunningly Perfect! ✨

Lavonne is truly spectacular! To start off, she was perfectly professional out of the gate, with great communication skills and clarity with cost, timing, and expectations. Then on the day she went above and beyond expectations. Everyone in our party looked incredible, thoroughly enjoyed working with her, and her skilled use of top of the line products allowed everyone to look flawless all night long! (Not just bridesmaids, but mothers and grandmothers alike!) And as the bride, my expression in the mirror says it all! I wear makeup everyday, so I asked her for a little more today to make it special. Needless to say, her work took my breath away! We will treasure these photographs forever, with endless thanks to incredible work. Love you, MakeupLove!

7/12/2025 Bridesmaid

I had the pleasure of being pampered by Lavonne as a bridesmaid for a wedding on 7/12/2025. Lavonne was prepared and professional, and ensured that all of her clients that day were fully satisfied with their glam. Lavonne glammed bridesmaids, mothers, and grandmothers- with all different complexions and needs- with ease. The glam lasted through the summer heat of the day, and through dancing all night. Beyond her artistry, Lavonne brought good energy through her entire service. THANK YOU LAVONNE!!

My dream wedding came true

LaVonne exceeded my expectations for my wedding. Originally, I only had 2 bridesmaids, my mother and myself being serviced but ended up with 2 additional people wanting to get their makeup up. LaVonne was able to accommodate them at the last minute and get everyone finished ahead of schedule. She was on time, professional and personable. I have very oily skin and she was able to recommend products for me to use prior to my wedding day to help with oil control. She also made sure my makeup was set in a way that I didn’t need to reapply, blot or wipe a thing. It was truly perfection and I can’t thank her enough. On your wedding day, you do not want your makeup to be the wrong color or simply too much. I didn’t have that worry as she got it just right and I couldn’t help but admire how she made me still look like myself but yet beautiful. I would highly recommend her for any event you may have.

Beyond Words!

I don’t think I can express enough how amazing LaVonne is! She made me look like the best in between of the inspiration photos I gave her and myself. So easy to work with and so kind! I cannot thank you enough for everything. You did not only to make me look and feel as beautiful as possible, but also my friends and family as well! Thank you!!!

“Bridal Beauty at Its Best – Lavonne Is the One to Book”

Lavonne is truly a magician with makeup! She made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself on my wedding day. From the trial to the big day, she was professional, kind, and incredibly talented. She took the time to understand the look I wanted and executed it flawlessly—natural, radiant, and long-lasting (even through all the happy tears and dancing!).

Not only did she do an amazing job on my makeup, but she also made my bridesmaids and mom look stunning. Everyone felt confident and comfortable, and the photos turned out gorgeous thanks to her skill. I did not pay for an extended touch up hours but I also didn’t need it either. As the hours went on the make up lasted through tumult sweat and tears. The lasts pictures posted was after a few drinks and dancing about 7 -8 hours later.

Lavonne was punctual, calm, and such a joy to have around during the getting-ready process. I can't recommend her enough—if you're lucky enough to book her, you're in the best hands!

Amazing, Amazing, flawless makeup!

LaVonne was very professional and friendly. I had a trial with her, and she made me feel very comfortable. I had some little adjustments for the day of my wedding and she executed perfectly!! She did my mom’s makeup as well and was very patient and kind to her. She was on time. Got everything done in a timely manner. Made the start of my wedding day so easy and stress free. I looked and felt amazing on my day!!! I highly recommend booking with her ☺️ I will definitely be using her again for any future make up needs.
