I found Gretchen through her excellent reviews online, and she did hair and make-up for my wedding in Portland last month. I cannot say enough good things about Gretchen, and Urbaca Salon! Getting ready at the beautiful salon the morning of my wedding was so the most relaxing part of the day. Gretchen was sweet, supportive and fun, and did an incredible job with my hair and make-up. We did a trial run the week before (I am not local so my timeline was pretty limited). I brought in a few photos from Pinterest to give her an idea of the style I was after, and Gretchen did a beautiful job of creating the look I was after. On the wedding day it came out even more amazing, and I couldn't have been happier. It is so important to feel confident on your wedding day, and even better to get pampered by someone as talented and kind as Gretchen. I highly recommend her, and the prices were very reasonable compared to others in the area.

LOVED working w/ Caitlyn and Gretchen for my wedding! My mom and I did a trial months in advance, since I live out of state, and then had various follow up calls thereafter. We loved our trial and locked in the wedding day appt immediately. We opted to have them travel to our hotel to do all of the wedding party's makeup and bride +mother's of the bride/groom hair and makeup. They were so nice, open to ideas and visions of the party, created a relaxed environment and did an phenomenal job on all of us. I even changed how I wanted my hair days before and Caitlyn was more than open to doing whatever I wanted with my hair.

They have full or mini make-ups (eyes and lips primarily) which was a nice option for my wedding party and saved a lot of time, and cost, for the wedding party. I opted for the full makeup

the ONLY downside is that initially we would call through the front desk to confirm times, costs, number of people and how to schedule, etc and it took often days-week and/or multiple calls back to get your answer. One of the ladies and i exchanged phone numbers which made it much easier to communicate what was needed for our out-of-salon appointments. I just made sure not to abuse it!!

GREAT Price esp for what I had seen out there and couldn't have asked for better people to work with. Make is easy on yourself and pay the extra $100 for them to travel to you so you don't have to stress about it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
