Where to even begin! Working with Mariel was one of the best decisions I made when it came to my wedding, the moment I had my initial intro call with her I knew she was the one! There was an instant and effortless connection that felt authentic, genuine, fun, and confident. As someone who has a hard time making decisions, this one was easy and that felt so good. We had so much fun on our trial makeup day, I felt really confident about our plan for the big day, and my makeup looked incredible of course. We really took our time and tried different things to make sure I was clear and happy with the final result. When the wedding day came, Mariel & team were prompt, brought the best vibes, and absolutely crushed everyone’s makeup. We were all so happy and had such a fun day. Working with Mariel was honestly a dream; professional, knowledgeable, communicative, a master of her craft, an incredible person, and beyond! Thank you again for everything and so excited to work together again soon🙏🏼♥️✨

Mariel was a true professional, capable, approachable and flexible. She was flexible and understanding when I decided to change my hair style on the day of the wedding. Mariel is meticulous yet flexible; we carefully planned each hair style carefully over weekly phone calls and e-mail. She was always available over phone or text. Most importantly , the price was right for our budget. We got two hair stylist to ensure we were ready on time.

For my wedding, I wanted to feel confident that my skin looked flawless—like I was simply wearing my best, bare skin. That’s why booking Mariel was a no-brainer. She excels at creating naturally radiant, flawless-looking skin. Not only was she doing my makeup, but she was also doing my 80-year-old grandma’s—and let me tell you, ol’ girl looked stunning!

Mariel scheduled a trial session where we could talk through my vision and explore all the possibilities. During that session, I felt so genuinely cared for. She pampered my skin with a thoughtful skincare routine before moving step by step through the look we’d create for the big day. It wasn’t until she placed the veil on my head during the trial that it hit me—my wedding was truly around the corner.

Beyond her talent for enhancing natural beauty and bringing calm, positive energy, Mariel turned out to be a lifesaver. When my wedding photographer canceled the day before the ceremony, she immediately jumped into action, reaching out to her network and finding a replacement who matched my energy perfectly. I will forever be grateful for that.

Thank you, Mari, and your incredible team, for treating my family with so much love and care—and for making sure we all felt beautiful, especially my Granny. I’m so thankful your kindness and presence became part of such a special day.

Mariel was an absolute dream to have on my wedding day. She brought such a calm, fun energy and kept me hyped and excited the whole time. My makeup was exactly what we discussed, timeless, elegant, and truly me. She worked beautifully alongside my hairstylist and felt like a natural part of my getting-ready crew. I even woke up the next morning with my eye makeup still intact! If you want someone who’s talented, reliable, and brings all the good vibes,Mariel is it.

A friend of mine recommended I work with Mariel for my engagement shoot and I am forever thankful that I did! Mariel was very responsive and we even FaceTimed before meeting so she could understand my skin better and what I was envisioning for my makeup. Day of - She was on time and super friendly. I have only done my makeup once before, over 10 yrs ago, and Mariel made me feel so relaxed and at ease. She was so easy to speak to and even gave me tips on how to clean my brushes better since I have acne-prone skin. My makeup looked and felt amazing on me! It was just as we spoke about over FaceTime. I received so many compliments just on my makeup. I am so happy I had this opportunity to work with such a talented artist, and I can't wait to work with her again for my upcoming bridal shower.

My experience with Mariel as a make-up artist was great. She did a lovely job and she was a professional. I was looking for a natural look and she created a beautiful make-up that recreated softness, yet highlighted my eyes and cheekbones. The make-up was not for a wedding but for an occasion almost 10 years ago.
