Super flexible, super fun to work with, highly recommend!
Marlise was an absolute pleasure to work with!
She was extremely patient and responsive throughout the entire process, and I was so grateful for how flexible she was. From the start, Marlise understood and respected my vision, and didn’t try to push me to do anything I wasn’t comfortable with.
She was honest about the pricing, the timing, and a realistic timeline for events.
I went in for a trial and had such a fun time! I went with one of my bridesmaids and we had so much fun chatting, listening to music, and picking my make-up and hair style! Marlise had asked me ahead of time for some hair styles and make-up ideas I was interested in trying in order to make the most of our session. In addition, she gave me directions for face and hair for the trial, wardrobe (wearing something with a similar neckline to my wedding dress), and bringing any accessories I was interested in. I wanted a natural look as I don’t typically wear make-up, and Marlise was able to create a beautiful natural, romantic look that I loved immediately. Then she nailed my hair-do on the first try! She had allocated enough time for 3 hair dos, but after the second one we knew the first one was it! After the trial I knew I wanted to book her for my wedding.
I had a tight timeline for my wedding because I couldn’t be at the venue before 9am and our ceremony was at 3pm, and Marlise brought in extra help and they all made myself, mom, and 4 bridesmaids look amazing in that short amount of time. They all arrived on time, looked great, introduced themselves to my ladies, and we had so much fun with them! The worked very efficiently, quickly, and finished with time to spare. Because of the time crunch, prior to the wedding Marlise asked me to send pictures of the hair styles that my ladies wanted, and that helped make things go more quickly day-of. My mom is the same and doesn’t wear make-up, and she kept commenting on how she loved her make-up.
She also worked really well with a hair piece I wanted to incorporate into my hair, and was super quick and smart when day-of it didn't work. She also dropped everything to help get my veil on which resulted in some fun pictures.
I am so happy with how my make-up looked and how my special ladies looked, and will absolutely have Marlise do my hair and make-up again.
Thanks Marlise!
