My partner and I had a fantastic experience with Pre-Dame Beauty! The hair and makeup trials were a highlight for Hilarie. She worked with Michael and Amy and it was so fun and helpful to meet them in advance to spend time refining her looks. She was quite indecisive, particularly about her hairstyle, and Michael and Stefanie were so patient and she ended up loving her final look!

On the day of our wedding, Michael, Amy, and Ayumi were amazing. They were punctual and made setting up the space stress-free. They were also super accommodating of everyone’s styling needs. Everyone looked and felt beautiful! I wanted a light touch and they listened and delivered exactly what I asked for, taking my concerns into account. Hilarie's makeup was glam but natural and hair was shiny and gorgeous...just how she wanted. And both hair and makeup stayed looking fresh all night!

Also - we love that they give everyone a lip gloss for touch ups! It’s such a nice touch.

Look no further, hire Pre-Dame! I discovered Pre-Dame when I was on the hunt for clean/natural wedding hair & makeup artists - after having my hair & makeup done as a bridesmaid many times where I did not feel like myself, it was extremely important to me to partner with artists for my wedding day that would make me feel like an elevated version of myself. I was impressed from the moment I connected with Stefanie (the owner), and continued to be impressed by the level of communication throughout the planning process - she does an incredible job taking the time to understand your vision, your skincare needs, your haircare routine, etc. to ensure the best experience possible.

I worked with Allie (makeup) and Michael (hair) for my wedding weekend, and I can't sing their praises enough. They knocked it out of the park and I have never felt more beautiful, while also feeling like myself. My mother and mother-in-law also were blown away by their talent, as were my bridesmaids. Besides being incredibly talented, they are genuinely wonderful people. When it came to picking hair + makeup artists, my planner noted that these are the people you start your wedding day with and are literally in your face, so you want to make sure you like their energy. Allie and Michael brought such a warm and calming presence, I cannot imagine having partnered with anyone else!

I truly can't thank Allie, Michael, and Stefanie enough for how they made me feel during my wedding weekend, but especially on my wedding day; every bride deserves to feel their best, and working with Pre-Dame is guaranteed to do that!

Hiring Predame Beauty for my wedding in April 2024 was the best decision! Stefanie and her team did such an amazing job creating the exact more natural and understated (but still elevated) look for my wedding. They understood exactly what I wanted from the get-go (they just "get it"), and I felt my absolute best on my wedding day. I couldn't have a asked for more! Stefanie and her team also did a beautiful job for my family and bridal party's hair and makeup, and as a bonus, they were so much fun and such a calming presence to have with us that day!

I could go on and and on and on singing praises about the Pre-Dame team. I worked with Stefanie, Allie, and Sofie. From the day of my trail, right to the moment I walked down the aisle, the women that I worked with made me feel beautiful, special, and cared for. The day wouldn't have been the same without them.

Sofie did hair for me and my girls. We all have different textures, lengths, and styles, but she made all of us shine. Her talent is crazy and all our styles lasted through a muggy August day. She tamed my extremely thick and unruly hair into the curls, and then updo, of my dreams!! Sofie stayed with me for the entire day and I REALLY did not want to let her go. Her calming presence and willingness to jump in and help whenever needed, while also making sure I didn't starve and that everyone's hair stayed on point, was life saving. Weddings are stressful, but Sofie really made me feel like I had someone in my corner. She is truly an angel!

Allie absolutely crushed it with all the girls' makeup. We are all so different, but everyone looked so crazy beautiful while still looking cohesive and, most importantly, like themselves. Allie was so gracious with everyone, collaborating with them to create the perfect look. My mom, in particular, was so nervous to have her makeup done for the firs time, but Allie eased her fears and made her look GLOWING. She couldn't have been happier, and that meant the world to me. I LOVED my trial look, but somehow with just a few tweaks, Allie made my day-of look even BETTER. She helped make me feel so beautiful and confident, which is huge when you're in front of a camera all day! Allie's sweet and lovely energy really helped cultivate that girlhood magic for a morning with my best friends that I'll remember forever.

Stefanie is a superhero. Her energy during my trail and throughout the planning process was unmatched! It's so abundantly clear how much she loves her job, and how passionate she about helping execute your vision, while being there to lend her expertise and a guiding hand if needed. One of my favorite experiences in my whole planning process was brainstorming the two looks we did for my wedding day. When I was overwhelmed with planning everything myself, Stefanie stepped in with the PERFECT day-of beauty schedule. Really, she went above and beyond and I am so grateful.

I think the length of this review speaks for itself lol (sorry!), but I would go with Pre-Dame again and again and again. I can't recommend them enough!

I cannot recommend Pre-Dame enough!

I had the honor of being their first international destination wedding but I wouldn't have known this if Stefanie hadn't told me. They handled the whole process so seamlessly and professionally and made me feel so at ease during all of the planning - even in the face of a possible impending hurricane (!), I got nothing but calmness + support from the Pre-Dame team.

Onto the event/services: AMY (MU) AND SOPHIE (H) ARE ABSOLUTE ROCKSTARS. I love them both so much, let me count the ways:
-They did a fantastic job on my hair and make-up for both my welcome dinner event and my ceremony/reception. We're talking 3 different hair styles and make-up that looked flawless even after a lot of sweaty dancing in humid weather :D
-They took all of my feedback seriously/made adjustments if I asked but also had their own vision so I felt like I could mostly just let them do their thing.
-They also did an amazing job on H+MU for my family. They fit in really well with our entire group and everyone loved chatting with them.
-They were incredibly kind, calm, and collected throughout all of the chaos - drivers who were late, schedule changes, last minute additions to the list of folks getting services. Nothing phased them.
-They went above and beyond to make my experience as stress-free and joyful as possible. They seemed genuinely happy/excited about all of the events and they always went the extra mile. I didn't have a traditional bridal party and I felt like Amy and Sophie stepped in to take care of me on the day - from checking that I had everything I needed before I left for the ceremony to fixing anything that looked remotely out of place (hair, make-up, veil, dress) to keeping me company (and out of the rain!) before I walked down the aisle. They stayed close (in a good way!) for touch-ups and they stayed late to give me a superb second look which I loved.

I really consider them an integral part of my wedding experience. They were more like good friends with exceptional skills than folks who were just there to do a job. If it's any indication: my photographer included a photo of me, Amy, and Sophie in the "family portraits" section of my wedding photos :D

THANK YOU SO MUCH AMY, SOPHIE, AND STEFANIE!

Stefanie and Ayumi were wonderful to work with! They made me feel like myself, but even better! I couldn't have asked for a better hair and makeup team, and everything turned out amazing!

Stefanie and the whole Pre-Dame team are absolutely amazing to work with. Stef and Sophie made me look and feel so beautiful for my entire wedding weekend. They offered their expertise and suggestions, and mixed that with what each individual person wanted so that everyone felt and looked amazing. The whole team was punctual, professional, supportive, sooo nice and so fun. I am not someone who wears makeup or does my hair often, and Stef and Sophie made me feel so comfortable and take care of. They created 3 different looks for me, were available the entire day for touch ups, and even stayed until after our cocktail hour to change my hair look for the reception and touch up my makeup. I truly felt like I was hanging out with my best friends while they did our hair and makeup, which is so important on your wedding day. I can't recommend Pre-Dame Beauty enough for any event or wedding that you want to look like your most beautiful self for. There is no better choice, from the hair and makeup trial, to the wedding day, they are the absolute best around!!

Booking Pre-Dame for my wedding was hands down the best decision I made throughout wedding planning!!! Having been scarred from bad HMU experiences where I didn't feel like myself, I was searching for a team who would deliver truly natural hair and makeup to make me feel like a slightly enhanced and glowier version of myself :) Pre-dame delivered just that. Allie and Michael were both incredibly talented and made me feel so at ease on my big day. Having them stay for touch-ups was a great decision - it was 90 and humid on our wedding day and Allie + Michael followed us around during photos for touch ups to make sure I was looking my best throughout photos and into the ceremony! I don't know what I would have done without them. Stefanie was also SUCH a pleasure to work with - she felt like a friend and offered really great advice throughout the process. Do yourself a favor and book Pre-Dame!!!

I cannot recommend Predame Beauty enough for wedding day hair and makeup!

From beginning to end, my experience was amazing. Stefanie, the owner, was super communicative, clear on costs, and quick to get me quotes. My trial day was a blast; they followed my inspiration and worked with me to prep and plan my look perfectly.

On the day of the wedding, Allie, my makeup artist, and Sophie, my hair artist, (the same girls who covered my trial) arrived on time and efficiently got through everyone while staying on schedule and executing their looks flawlessly. Allie did a fantastic job with makeup that was light and enhanced my natural beauty without changing my appearance. Sophie managed to keep everyone's hair perfect despite the heat and humidity, giving me an amazing hairstyle down and up for my second look!

Stefanie made the overall planning effortless by building a perfect schedule to ensure everyone was covered and accounted for. Allie worked her magic on guests of all ages and skin textures, making everyone's makeup flawless and leaving them glowing. Sophie’s skill in keeping hair intact under challenging conditions was truly impressive as well!

Allie and Sophie were super sweet and a pleasure to work with, even following me around for photos to ensure I stayed looking great all day long. I would recommend Predame Beauty to everyone and anyone for their special day!

Stefanie, the owner, is so wonderful and works hard to make sure you feel your absolute best on your wedding day! She is truly a dream to have on your wedding team! The artists at Pre-Dame are all INCREDIBLY TALENTED and kind—Each and every one! Sandy, Ava, Allie, and Sophie did hair & makeup for the moms, my bridal party, and me on my wedding day. Everyone felt absolutely beautiful and truly looked so stunning! We were all obsessed! One thing I didn’t want to stress about on my wedding day was how I looked, and the Pre-Dame team made it so I didn’t have to worry at all. Sandy & Ava stayed with me until after my ceremony (Day of Beauty service) and it was SO WORTH IT to have them stay! I was crying so much throughout my ceremony that I actually had snot come out of my nose in front of everyone, haha! Sandy somehow made my makeup look flawless through it all (HOW?!) and Ava made sure my bangs and hair were doing their thing and touched it up beautifully when it needed a refresh! They also were just so fun to hang out with! I seriously can’t say enough wonderful things about this team. I love Pre-Dame so much—Thank you!!!
