Highly Recommend!!!!

Erica was amazing! She was professional, on time, and a whole vibe for my bridal party and I. I wanted to change up my eye makeup from my bridal trial and Erica made it happen!! My makeup came out amazing! I’m not a big makeup wearer so I was nervous going into this, but it looked very natural and I was super comfortable! If you want to look amazing on your big day or for any occasion, BOOK ERICA! I promise you will not be disappointed! I’ll be booking her for all my makeup needs going forward! Thank you again Erica!

Amazing!!!

I can’t say enough good things about Erica! From the very beginning, she was so professional, quick to respond, and made the whole booking process so easy. She asked me so many great questions leading up to the wedding to make sure my makeup was exactly what I envisioned, and it truly was perfect for my special day.

On the day of, Erica was wonderful to work with. She did my bridal makeup, along with my mom, maid of honor, and one of my bridesmaids. She listened to all of our requests and gave us exactly what we wanted. My mom and most of my bridesmaids aren’t big makeup wearers, and Erica gave them the most natural but beautiful looks that they felt so comfortable in—and the compliments never stopped all night long!

She also brought a second makeup artist for my other three bridesmaids, and she was just as amazing. Everyone looked absolutely stunning, and we all felt so confident walking into the day.

I am so grateful to Erica and her team for helping us all feel so beautiful. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t imagine my wedding day without her!

Amazing!

Erica was everything and more. We didn't have time to do a Bridal Preview, but I was able to send her pics of myself and inspo and the type of look I was going for on the big day. She executed to perfection! Loved the documentation throughout and she sent me all the footage which was super special. What a gifted person, can't wait to use your services again in the future!

Made my Wedding Day

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Erica as my wedding makeup artist. From the very first interaction, she demonstrated an unmatched level of professionalism. Erica was always quick to respond to my messages and made me feel completely at ease, which was so important given how much coordination goes into planning a wedding. She was attentive not only to my needs but also to everyone in my bridal party, making sure each person felt confident and cared for.

One of the most special moments involved my mom. Erica did such an incredible job with her makeup that my mom didn’t even want to remove it at the end of the night! Seeing my mom glow with happiness meant the world to me, and Erica played a huge role in creating that memory.

As a bride, there are always unexpected little changes or tweaks you need, and Erica handled every adjustment I requested without hesitation or complaint. She was calm, patient, and so sweet throughout the entire process. What stood out the most was her dedication—Erica stayed later than expected on my wedding day just to ensure I was comfortable. She even went above and beyond by holding a fan during my bridal photos to keep me cool and comfortable. That extra care made me feel like more than just a client; I felt genuinely supported and cherished on one of the most important days of my life.

Not only is Erica incredibly talented, but she also has the kindest spirit. Her warmth and kindness made me feel truly beautiful from the inside out. If you’re looking for a makeup artist who will exceed your expectations in every way, Erica is your person. I am so grateful for the part she played in making my wedding day unforgettable, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any bride in need of an artist who’s both highly skilled and an absolute joy to work with.

Perfectly Done

Erica was absolutely amazing. She was there every step of the way, especially when the tears hit. My makeup, absolutely gorgeous. She was on time and ready to get me and my ladies glammed up. We switched it up a little with a second look, and she nailed it. I would highly recommend her.

Erica Manson is absolutely wonderful.

From beginning to end the process was smooth. She is personable, professional and creates a great atmosphere for any client seeking a bridal look for their special day. The looked she created for me was flawless, as well as the looks my bridesmaids had were beautiful. Not to mention it lasted all day without caking up and wasn’t hard to remove. There was never a time I doubted her abilities and I appreciate her for enhancing my look and pushing me to try something new.

Wedding Make-up

Erica's service was outstanding. I booked her for my wedding day and she did not disappoint. She offers a trial that allows you to few your look before the big day so it is personalized to you. Erica was also very professional and very prepared and very flexible with any changes I had.
