I had the best experience working with Lana for my wedding, and I can’t recommend her enough, she’s extremely talented. She created the perfect look for me that lasted all night!!
I also want to mention how perfect the makeup was for my wedding party and my mom. My mom has mature skin and typically doesn’t wear makeup, but Lana worked her magic and made her look stunning! If you want a makeup artist who delivers beautiful results and makes the experience fun, she is your girl!!
Thank you, Lana, for making my day unforgettable! -

I got married in September and had Alana do the makeup for myself and 4 other wedding party members. She was amazing! Being biracial and after a bad experience from my junior prom years ago, I was wary of hiring a makeup artist for myself for my wedding. However, Alana’s portfolio includes clients with all sorts of skin tones that it gave me the (much needed) reassurance to trust her to make me and my bridal party look beautiful! She was easy to communicate and work with throughout the process and gave me some good advice when I had questions. During my bridal trial, it was easy to come up with the moody look I was hoping for without going overly glam. And on the day of, my makeup matched the trial makeup and then some!
I felt like a goddess on my wedding day, and while the dress helped, it was Alana’s makeup that did it the trick! 100/10 recommend! 💕 -

Shunia Sent on 10/07/2022Great at her craft
Alana was great to work with. I wanted a makeup artist who had worked with different skin types and tones. The trial went smoothly and I loved the look. Alana was easy to communicate with and flexible. Greatly appreciate her for traveling to the OBX. For the day of Alana planned to have an assistant, but COVID had other plans. She let me know and the day of we adjusted. Alana took her time with everyone and we all looked absolutely beautiful. The makeup lasted all evening. -

Alana is hands down the most talented make up artist out there. She was absolutely amazing and did my make up FLAWLESSLY for my special day 🥰 it was the best feeling to enjoy my wedding day and not stress over if I would love how my make up turned out because I knew anything she did would be fantastic. Her make up artists that came with her, Tyler and Jen, we’re also amazing!!
All my bridesmaids were so happy with their make up and we truly cannot thank them enough for making us all feel like pretty princesses ♥️
11/10 for Bella Vita Artistry - THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! We love you!! -

Tara Sent on 10/29/2018Amazing artist! Very talented! Would highly recommend!!!
Alana was very professional and efficient! She did myself, my mom and my 4 bridesmaids the day of my wedding and was on time and everyone looked stunning!!!! As soon as I saw her work I booked her as soon as we set the wedding day a year in advance! She really is amazing and so talented, I could go on! I had a trial run before hand and she even gave me a touch up kit for the day of of powder and extra lip stick. Brides are $150 I want to say and it was $80 for each of my bridesmaids. Which is reasonable considering he makeup is waterproof and lasted all day even through us crying and sweating as we were dancing! Check out her pictures or her facebook page and book her for your next up coming weddng, shower, prom or other event. you wont regret it! -

Queen Sent on 04/03/2016Alana has been great to work with. I found her through a friend and she did my makeup for a Christmas Party and I knew she would be great for my big day. I am so excited. 78 more days and I will update my review. -

Wedding makeup
Alana did my makeup on my wedding day as well as the makeup for my bridesmaids and she absolutely crushed it. We had bridesmaids from various backgrounds and she did makeup looks that suited each one beautifully. She also listened to what i preferred for bridal makeup and executed the vision perfectly. I felt so beautiful and the makeup lasted all night. She also kindly stayed an extra hour to do my mom’s makeup who was scheduled in but was late arriving to the venue. 10000/10 would recommend. THANK YOU ALANA!! -

Best bridal makeup!!
Alana did my bridal makeup as well as my bridesmaids! The makeup lasted all night long and looked absolutely perfect in person as well as photos. Alana was able to adapt to all our makeup preferences while making sure we all looked cohesive. The morning of the wedding was a little chaotic, and it meant so much to me to have Alana to vent to. She really helped me calm my nerves. I would highly recommend Alana for all of your makeup needs!! -

Hire Alana!!!!
10/10 would recommend Alana. When my first hired artist could no longer commit to my wedding, Alana came through and I am soooo glad she did. First, lets start with my bridal trial... she did my trial on the day of my bridal shower and I got so many compliments from friends and family. I would definitely suggest doing your trial on a special day, so you look fantastic for all your events. On the day of my wedding she showed up on time, stayed perfectly on schedule with all 4 bridesmaids, mother of the bride, and myself. She had all equipment she could possibly need. Her makeup and gear were thoroughly cleaned between each client. She fit right in with my girls -making the getting ready process so much fun. We all absolutely loved our makeup. Even my mother who does not like makeup at all, loved the way Alana made her mature skin look so glowy and smooth. Do yourself a favor and hire Alana for all events, especially weddings. -

A vibe you NEED!
My husband and I decided to have a 5 year vow renewal wedding this year since we did not have an initial wedding. We booked our venue in VA Beach and I found the most beautiful, kind, and down to earth makeup artist! Alana, the owner of Bella Vita Artistry, is so attentive and knowledgeable about her craft. She responds quick and affordable. My bridesmaids and I enjoyed her on the wedding day because she came in with a positive vibe! Not to mention, she arrived way early and was already set up and ready to go! If we decide to have a 10 year reunion wedding, she is on my list to hire again! I highly recommend!! Thank you so much! -

Jasmine Sent on 10/12/2018Alana was great! She commuted to Keswick Vineyards outside of Charlottesville for our wedding and was timely and professional throughout the day. I have already recommended her to some friends getting married soon.
