Great hair and makeup experience!

I’m so glad I booked WPI for my bridal and wedding party hair and makeup! Before booking with WPI, I was so confused on how to go about booking hair and makeup artists for our wedding. From the start, Mariah was easy to communicate with and clear about the minimums for booking, which helped ease any anxiety I had previously.

Laura and Kathleen were assigned to do my bridal hair and makeup, respectively. They are both such a joy to work with and listened very intently on what I wanted. I loved the way my hair and makeup came out on the day-of and was thrilled that it lasted literally all day, through tears, big hugs, and lots of smiles. Laura and Kathleen also did my maid of honor, mom, mother-in-law, and flower girl’s hair and makeup, and I loved how they worked with them to get the look they each wanted. My mother-in-law in particular doesn’t wear makeup and Laura nailed a very natural look just for her.

I also added hair and makeup for my bridesmaids a bit last minute and Mariah worked with me to find two additional artisans for the wedding day. Although I didn’t get my hair and makeup done by Katie and Daphne, I appreciated them dropping their Saturday plans to come join us. I may be biased, but I think all of my girls turned out beautiful!

Definitely recommend!

War Paint International made the whole hair and makeup process enjoyable! Lori was super easy to communicate with, and the team was very personable and fun to work with. At the trial, they were open to feedback and walked us through options that would work best for our look and comfort. It made us super comfortable right away that they have done many other queer weddings, so we appreciated that!

Awesome experience!

I had the best experience with my wedding hair and makeup team! From the trial run to the final touch-ups on the big day, they were kind, professional, and incredibly talented. They listened closely to what I wanted and made any tweaks that I asked for- even last minute hair changes. My hair stayed perfect all night, and my makeup looked flawless in every photo. I really enjoyed Paulina and Tia's work. Highly recommend!

Excellent Company!

This company was amazing! Very understanding and flexible. I had Kathleen for hair, and I swear she’s a wizard. Then I had Taylor for makeup, and she worked wonders with my vision, which was a little off the normal bridal makeup. Absolutely pleased with these women 😊.

Best Wedding Makeup!

WarPaint International was phenomenal! We had over 20 hair and makeup services completed on the wedding day, and their team handled it all with professionalism, speed, and such a fun, warm attitude. The quality was amazing, and everyone felt beautiful. Their process was streamlined and efficient, which made the morning run smoothly. Couldn’t have asked for a better beauty team!

Amazing Experience! WPI makes it easy!

WPI was amazing and highly recommended for my wedding. When looking for HMU, so many places are separate and then you have to worry about making sure everyone gets their hair and make up finished in time. WPI schedules and plans HMU based on how many people are in your wedding to make sure there are no problems. Amanda did my HMU as the bride and she was amazing! I plan to use her in the future for any other events that I have that I may need HMU for. I would absolutely have gone with WPI for my hair and makeup over and over again.

Went Above and Beyond

WPI Beauty was amazing on my wedding day. Not only did they make me and my loved ones look and feel beautiful, but they were incredibly flexible to the unexpected hurdles. Our makeup artist, Alma, was so attentive to my needs and helped me with touch-ups after the ceremony - because there were a lot of happy tears! Our hairstylists, Keely and Kathleen, also went above and beyond. Keely took on an unexpected task of helping me into my headpiece for the ceremony. Kathleen also helped with an unexpected task of fixing up the groom's hair after the ceremony, which got a bit undone when he changed from ceremony attire to reception attire. Overall, not only did these ladies do an incredible job, but they made us all feel taken care of and special on such an important day.

Best Hair & Makeup Team!

We hired WPI for my makeup for our engagement photos in September and for hair and makeup for our wedding (including a trial in February) on 4/25/25 at Edward Anne Estate. Amanda was the artist I worked with and I can’t say enough great things about her! Working with her for our engagement photos and my wedding HMU trial, she took the time to ask detailed questions and fully understand what I wanted/the look I was going for. She was great at communicating and providing a safe space for me to give feedback on what I liked/didn’t like, took detailed notes and photos, and made sure I loved the final result. On the day of my wedding, she was such a calming presence and helped me through the roller coaster of emotions you have as you’re getting ready for your wedding. She made me feel comfortable, listened to feedback, and made sure I was completely happy with my final look. We just got our photos back and I am obsessed with how my hair and makeup turned out and how it lasted all day! I can’t recommend Amanda enough for her skills but also her as a person! The rest of the team did an amazing job the day of, my bridesmaids and mothers all looked beautiful, they were on time, and professional, and made the morning run smoothly! WPI was great to work with from start to finish and I would highly recommend them to any future brides!

Everything you need for wedding day beauty and ease!

WarPaint is the way to go for all things beauty with your wedding! I really did not know where to start with hair and makeup for my wedding, but Jessica was so wonderful and kind and made me feel at ease. She is so incredibly easy to work with, and would send out reminders when it was time to lock in bridesmaids, or get final payments. She coordinated everything so it went smoothly from the trial to the day. Paulina was my stylist, and she was the sweetest addition to our getting ready time! It was incredibly special to see how kind she was to my mother, and made her feel so beautiful on my day. She was very professional, and made us all feel perfect. Thank you Jessica, Paulina and the WPI team!!! We love you!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
