Amazing hair and makeup team!

Jessica and her team were absolutely amazing! They did hair and makeup for me, my 7 bridesmaids, and the mothers of the groom and bride. Jessica was extremely responsive through the entire process and had an excellent attention to detail. She was hands-down the most responsive vendor we had. The whole process went so smoothly and I knew I had nothing to worry about.

I asked Jessica for an “old Hollywood glam” look and she nailed it! Many of our guests used that exact phrase when they complimented my hair and makeup throughout the night. Her team also did a great job with the rest of the party, who all had different hair textures, skin tones, and requests for what they wanted. I have zero hesitation in recommending Jessica and her team!

Jessica and Crew were AMAZING!

Jessica and her staff were amazing right from the get go. All of my bridesmaids were not only ranting and raving about their hair and makeup, but about the fun time they had with each hair/makeup artist. Jessica is reasonably priced, super professional, and also VERY responsive and on the ball. She was always available via email when I had questions or concerns. She also would email me with reminders and timelines so I wasn't missing anything. I was not from the area where she was located so she was also very flexible with me when it came time for my trial (her studio is also SO CUTE!). She made my visions of how I wanted to look on my wedding day come true. If you are looking for a great experience then don't hesitate to book Jessica.

The most talented!

Jessica was incredible every step of the process. She was always extremely thorough and responsive. She tailored everyone's makeup to be exactly how each person wanted it - and beyond exceeded expectations. She was a true joy to have while we all got ready for the big day - she is lovely to be around. She is so talented. She is prompt and reliable. My makeup lasted the whole night and so many people commented on how well done it was. I could not recommend someone more highly than Jessica!
