Amber and Sarah from Smudge did our hair and makeup for my wedding and did an amazing job! All of my bridesmaids loved their hair and makeup for the day. We all felt so beautiful, which is so important for such a special day! I would absolutely recommend Smudge to anyone that is looking for hair and makeup artists!
