Working with Smudge made the process of planning and executing hair and makeup for my wedding incredibly easy. Coordinating with only one vendor for both hair and makeup made everything so efficient. We had one timeline for the whole bridal party and it all went so smoothly. We had a pretty tight schedule for my wedding morning and we ended up finishing early because Amber and Megan were so organized.

They did an amazing job on everyone's hair and makeup. My bridal party said they perfectly acheived the looks they asked for and they were so fun to chat with. One of my bridesmaids works in the beauty industry and was blown away by their expertise and artistry. She was especially impressed by Amber's selection of products, noting that she had great lipstick options for every complexion and style preference.

Overall, I couldn't be happier with the services we received. Everyone looked gorgeous and the hair/makeup lasted all day. Most importantly, they helped make my wedding morning relaxed and efficient. I very highly recommend Smudge to anyone planning a wedding.

If I could give Amber and her team more than five stars, I absolutely would! From the very beginning, Amber was so kind, organized, and easy to work with. On our wedding day, she and her team brought such a calm, positive, and fun energy that made the entire morning feel relaxed and enjoyable. Getting ready with my bridesmaids and family was one of my favorite parts of the day, and they played a huge role in making it so special. My hair and makeup were everything I had envisioned. I felt beautiful, confident, and completely like myself. Best of all, everything lasted flawlessly from the morning until the very end of the night. My bridesmaids, our moms, and everyone else looked absolutely stunning, and each person felt listened to and cared for throughout the process. Not only is Amber incredibly talented, but she and her team are true professionals. They stayed on schedule, paid attention to every detail, and made everyone feel comfortable and beautiful. Their passion for what they do truly shines through.

I am so grateful that I chose Amber and her team for our wedding day, and I would recommend them to any bride without hesitation. Thank you for helping make one of the most important days of our lives even more memorable!

Amber and Kristy were absolutely amazing for my wedding day! Amber did makeup and Kristy did hair for me, 7 bridesmaids, and my mom, and everyone looked beautiful. They both paid close attention to every detail and made sure each person’s look matched exactly what they wanted.

Not only was their work incredible, but they were also organized, professional, and stayed right on schedule throughout the entire morning. Despite having a large group, everything ran smoothly and stress-free. Everyone was so happy with their hair and makeup, and the styles lasted all day and night.

I highly recommend Smudge to any bride looking for a talented, reliable, and detail-oriented beauty team!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Smudge Makeup, especially Megan (hair stylist) and Amber (makeup artist and business owner). They truly helped me feel like the best version of myself on my wedding day!

From the first day I spoke with Amber about my big day, she made me feel good about the services her team would provide me with. She was very transparent with pricing, and even has a spot on the website for brides to upload inspiration photos for wedding looks. It was easy to schedule a trial with her, and both Amber and Megan made it clear that they wanted me to feel good and wanted me to share any and all feedback about what I liked and didn’t like about the test run. This all made me feel at ease in the weeks leading up to the wedding.

From the moment we started, they made me feel comfortable and confident. Megan worked her magic on my hair, creating a beautiful updo that was both elegant and natural. Despite the windy weather at Branford House, my hair stayed in place all day and night and I didn’t have to worry about it once! Amber’s makeup artistry was just as impressive. She created the perfect glowy, natural look I had hoped for. Even when I got a little teary-eyed during the ceremony, my makeup stayed flawless.

Amber and Megan also worked with my bridesmaids and my mom, and everyone looked stunning. It was such a special experience knowing that everyone was so well taken care of, and we all felt beautiful.

If you’re looking for a team that can make your wedding day even more memorable, I highly recommend Smudge Makeup. They made me feel amazing, and the results were beyond my expectations. Thank you again for making me feel like the best version of myself on such an important day!

Smudge makeup came highly recommended from a few other brides I talked to, and they did not disappoint! From the makeup trial, to the day of Amber and team were great to work with and our hair and makeup came out exactly how we wanted it. They were a pleasure to have in the bridal suite and after using them, I agree with the other brides I was talking to and If would highly recommend!

Working with Amber was amazing. She was extremely responsive and helped organize an efficient timeline for the day of. Her team also included a hair stylist and they were both so great to work with. My bridal party (moms included) and myself all felt so beautiful and photo ready all through the day and night. I had zero concerns about anything falling out of place

Amber was so easy to coordinate with during the scheduling process. The hair and makeup artists were LOVELY, they were professional and personable. The artists were so talented and were really listened to what we wanted. The whole day ran so smoothly! I would absolutely recommend Smudge!

Smudge makeup was a joy to work with! They were so flexible to accommodate changing timelines, and they provided a preset schedule for my bridesmaids, so I didn't have to figure it out myself. My whole bridal party loved their hair and makeup! Everyone looked amazing and felt beautiful. I would definitely recommend!

Amber and Kristy did an amazing job with hair and makeup for my May 2025 wedding in Mystic. I also had hair/makeup done for my rehearsal dinner with them, which I would highly recommend to fully relax and enjoy the night before. Amber and Kristy arrived to our home on time the morning of the wedding and were finished with plenty of time before the official festivities began. I'm so happy that I went with Smudge for hair and makeup and I couldn't recommend them enough!

I hired Amber and her team for hair and makeup for 9 women including myself. They went above and beyond with their attention to detail and professionalism. Not only did they arrive early, but they kept to their schedule to a tee. We ended up finishing everyone’s hair and makeup with plenty of time for touch ups. They are truly so talented and would recommend to any future brides
