So great!! Even with a PANDEMIC!

Top Knot was amazing to work with. COVID really put us in a bind but TopKnot always stayed in contact, kept us up to date with the latest rules, and provided such a great service on my big day. I STILL get compliments on how great my hair and makeup was!!

The best!

Nicole and Brittany are absolutely the BEST stylists I've ever worked with (I've been in several weddings before my own). They have fair prices and are so much fun to be with and extremely nice and amenable to any changes you want to make. Everyone in my party looked absolutely gorgeous and LOVED their hair and makeup, which is definitely not always the case. My makeup and hair stayed perfect the entire night and I did a lot of crying and hugging and blowing my nose lol. I can't say enough great things about this Top Knot team--they certainly are TOP KNOTCH!!!!!!!

Fantastic Experience!

Nicole and her team were a pleasure to work with! They were flexible, responsive, on time, and overall did a fantastic job. I didn't give too much guidance on what I wanted, and they were able to ask the right questions and put something together that I loved. My hair and makeup also stayed the entire night (really day and night). I had 7 other people getting hair and makeup, and the team tackled everyone with no problem. I would definitely recommend Top Knot Bridal!

Needed last minute stylist for wedding and they delivered beyond expectations!!

Thru a mix-up, needed a makeup stylist for mother of the bride for a Sunday wedding. Thru a Google search found Top Knot Bridal and they saved the day! With only 2 days notice, Carissa drove 45 minutes to our hotel on Sunday morning, which to this day I'm astounded by. She did such an excellent job and would highly recommend Top Knot Bridal to anyone. Communication w/Top Knot was wonderful, confirmation dates, times, etc. Cannot say enough about how great they were. Thank you again!

Incredible experience working with Nicole

Nicole was so responsive, flexible, and talented. I ended up getting 2 hair trials (one was very last minute) and she was able to accommodate me even a week before my wedding. The morning of the wedding, she gave me the chance to try different things with the front of my hair to make sure I liked the look best. She was also able to find a third hairstylist for the morning of the wedding so that we could start a little later per my request. She is down to earth, easy to work with, and great at what she does. She has a great team as well for makeup. I hit the jackpot.

Highly recommend!

Nicole and Top knot bridal were fantastic! I found Nicole through my usual hair dresser and I could not have been happier with the referral. Nicole was timely, professional and extremely helpful throughout the whole process. I did a trial prior to the wedding and Nicole was able to look at 3-4 of my inspiration photos to come up with the perfect hairstyle for me! I was thrilled that she was able to replicate the style flawlessly on my wedding day as well. Pricing was very reasonable and Nicole was transparent with all pricing information from the start. She was also very flexible day of when half of my bridal party changed the styles they initially wanted. Nicole went a step above and helped develop a schedule for my bridal parties hair/makeup making the day run very smoothly. We had 2 hair stylists day of since I had a larger bridal party and both Nicole and Jess did a wonderful job! I would highly recommend Top Knot Bridal!!!

Entire bridal party LOVED everything!

Nicole and her team were so easy to work with and she's affordable (bonus!). People in my party changed their minds about what they wanted and she was super flexible with changing the numbers. The bridal party, my mom, my husbands mom, and his stepmom all were obsessed with everything Top Knot did. 3 bridesmaids got married this year and all 3 said they wished that this is what their hair and makeup looked like on their own wedding days.
I never ever ever wear makeup and Britt did a great job of listening to what I wanted and making suggestions. My mom didn't even want to wear any makeup, but after the trial she was sold.
It was the hottest day of the year (100 degrees+humidity), so there was a lot of sweat- everyone's hair held through it all and our makeup was flawless until the night was over.
After the wedding I couldn't stop thinking about what a good job Top Knot did, how happy everyone was, and how many compliments all the girls got! I wanted to text Nicole to thank her again but refrained (hahaha), but seriously, book them!! They are incredible!!!

June 2019 wedding

Nicole was awesome to work with! She also offered the most affordable prices I have seen when researching. You can tell Nicole has a true love for what she does and it shows in her work. My bridal hair along with my bridesmaids hair were totally perfect. We all were able to give her rough ideas of what we wanted and she pulled them off seamlessly. I can’t thank her enough for making our day that much more special. I highly recommend using top knot bridal for a smooth and enjoyable experience!!! Thank you Nicole!!
