Amazing ! She works magic

I met Michelle through falco’s Catering. From the moment we met she was friendly professional and you could tell she knew what she was doing. She did a trial for myself and my one bridesmaid who needed to add extensions. We looked amazing. I hired her for the wedding day she did my hair and make up as well as all my bridesmaids and the mother of the bride and groom.She worked her magic and made it such a special day because we all felt and looked beautiful. Her friendliness professionalism jokes and everything made such a difference in our day. I would highly recommend her for any event. Couldn’t ask for anyone better.

Extremely talented! Highly recommend!

Michele is an absolutely fantastic hair and makeup artist! She did my hair and makeup for my recent wedding, as well as several of my bridesmaids. Michele has such a talent for beauty and a great eye for detail. I felt like a beautiful princess on my wedding day, thanks to Michele. My bridesmaids were in tears over how beautiful my hair and makeup looked. Michele has a great personality that puts a smile on your face. She is so fun to be around! Michele also has assistants that work for her, so everyone has plenty of time to get ready for the wedding. I highly recommend using Michele for wedding or other events!

Great experience

Michele worked with me for a year and a half before my wedding. She did an amazing job on my engagement pictures hair and makeup. She did an even more an amazing job on my wedding. She had everything planned out so the timing worked out great. She did me and my other 5 bridesmaids and two mothers smoothly and made them all look amazing. She even did a trial run of my hair and makeup the day before to make sure everything was in order. She did an amazing job and everyone looked their best .

Michele was AMAZING!!!! She did both myself and my 6 bridesmaids the morning of my wedding. I spent about a year working with her to get my coloring perfect fro my big day. About two days before my wedding I changed my hairstyle from an updo to long curls and she was able to go with the flow and gave me the most glamorous natural look for my wedding! She was so much fun to work with and did an amazing job, everyone was raving about my hair and make-up for weeks after my wedding!!! Thanks Michele!!

Michele and her team did a great job the day of my wedding! Everyone's hair and make up looked absolutely amazing. Michele is so knowledgeable about all things bridal glam. She did hair and makeup for my flower girls, bridesmaids, and mother/mother of the groom. Everyone looked BEAUTIFUL and GLAMOROUS. I've never felt so beautiful as I did on my wedding day. Michele is absolutely great, I'm so glad I chose her for my wedding.

Michele Falco is the BEST. I conducted 2 trials with her (because I couldn't decide) and she was great at providing me with ideas that would look good with my hair color and length. On the day of she arrived early and created a schedule of events for hair and make up (we had 12 people total getting hair and make up done so this made the process seamless). Even when things got a little hectic with the photographers coming and other family members popping by, Michele and her team kept everyone calm and got everything completed on time. She also has the best personality and got everyone laughing and having fun the whole day. I got married on a humid August day and everyone's hair and airbrush makeup stayed completely intact the entire day starting at 8 am to midnight and beyond. If you want to look beautiful and have fun getting ready for your wedding, bridal by Michele is the way to go!

I can't say enough about Michele! She holds true to her mission statement. I looked like myself but only more beautiful. I honestly don't wear a lot of make up on a day to day basis and don't know much about it but Michele made me look so natural and enhanced my natural beauty. My hair was amazing and she made all my bridesmaids look just as beautiful! They all told me how much they loved how Michele did their hair and make up. She was so much fun during my special day and made me feel relaxed and excited. Thank you so much Michele! You are the best!

We recently had our daughters fabulous wedding and rehearsal dinner ( both catered by the exceptional team at Falco's Catering) at our home. Our daughter called Michele and asked for tattoo cover, hair and make up for both events. Not only is Michele an amazing talent, but extremely professional, punctual, has a loving heart and is fun to be with! I have never seen tattoos covered before (and our daughter is a perfectionist) Michele was patient, precise and encouraging during the whole process. Our daughter looked absolutely flawless! It was absolutely natural looking! The coverage lasted for days!!! It was perfect and beautiful and our daughter felt beautiful too. Michele did an amazing job with her hair and make up too! Our daughter said that she felt "the most beautiful in every way" ( and that's coming from a perfectionist!) We couldn't have been happier with Michele's services . Thank you Michele for making our daughter's special day even more special!

Michele is a pro! Calm, cool, collected, and all about making the bride and her girls happy and confident on the big day. From the trial to the wedding morning, I knew I was in good hands. I am lucky she's local so I can continue to use Michele to make me look and feel gorgeous.

Michele was absolutely fabulous! She did my hair and make up for my beach wedding, as well as spray tan too! Her products are top of the line and I did not have to worry about sweating my make up off for one minute, it all lasted perfectly throughout the night and I never left the dance floor. Michele even looked into my hairstyle after our first trial to find the best way to do it and made it even better than the first time she did it, which I originally love and thought was perfect. She is incredibly talented and truly cares about what she does. Even as a person who doesn't wear that much make up she made me feel like perfection and even satisfied my husband's request for a very natural look. She is the absolute best!

This is the second family wedding Michele has done hair and make up for and just like the first one we were blown away by her work. She was very easy to schedule with and did a trial run where she took her time so that we could find the perfect look for my big day. Her prices were also very reasonable. My hair stayed in the entire night and the air brush make up looked flawless in all of my pictures. Michele even went out of her way to come to my venue to make sure that everything was perfect right before the ceremony.

Michele was amazing!! Her work and pictures speak to how great she is at what she does, but also she is absolutely a pleasure to work with!! Michele did my hair, all my bridesmaids and 2 flower girls- everyone's hair came out stunning!! I got married on long beach island and was worried about my hair frizzing from being by the water, so I had arranged with Michele to follow us out to the reception venue (which was 45 mins away) so she could touch up our hair. She was a lifesaver and fixed EVERYONE'S hair!! She took my veil out and complexly redid my hair. I just loved how she made sure we all looked perfect all day long!! She literally worked from 5am to 7pm, and remained energetic, friendly and did an awesome job!! Truly a pleasure, I highly recommend using Bridal by Michele!!

Michele is the best!!! She did such a great job with my short hair for my wedding. I loved my makeup as well. She also has a great personality and showed that she cared by putting in the time and effort to create the look that I wanted. She is extremely talented and I highly recommend her to all brides!

My bridesmaids and I had a wonderful experience working with Michele and her partner. I have a LOT of hair, and Michele was able to pull something elegant and beautiful together without having a trial first. She was easygoing and fun to work with on the day of, and put my mind at ease with any timing concerns. She was also super patient with me leading up to the day, as I’m not the fastest to respond to e-mails! I’m so happy we worked with her and got such an outstanding finished product all around. Everyone looked gorgeous and I couldn’t be happier.

If you want to look and feel stunning on your wedding day, you need to book Michele ASAP. I had 7 people in my bridal party, as well as the mother of the groom and my mother that needed hair and makeup. Everyone looked fabulous, and we received so many compliments! The airbrush makeup stated on all night, which was a huge relief since it was 84 degrees and my ceremony and reception were outside. In addition to the wedding day and trial, Michele has colored and cut my hair since January, went with me and some of my bridesmaids to buy extensions, and texted me/emailed me back right away with any questions. She was so much fun, and I told her that she was stuck with me for the rest of our lives because my hair has never looked so fabulous. Thank you for doing such an incredible job!!

I am so glad I booked Michele for my wedding! She is very honest, professional and does an amazing job! She did my makeup and hair, and was also nice enough to help me get into my dress. ?? Definitely look into booking her for your big day and you won't be disappointed!

Michele did the hair and makeup for me for my friend's wedding and I honestly think that she is the best hair and makeup artist I've ever had!! Her makeup is natural and simply beautiful! She knows exactly what she is doing and I received so many compliments about my hair style from people at the wedding. Michele is so bubbly and professional and I'm so glad I chose her. Worth flying in from Sydney Australia!!

Michele was a gift to me on my wedding day. I had a morning ceremony (11am) to be followed by cocktail hour and reception. My fiancé and I had decided to take all our wedding pictures beforehand so that our intimate bridal party could enjoy the full cocktail hour with family and friends. Due to this decision, I had to be at the venue by 6am for hair and make up. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Michele was already there with her equipment in tow :0) She assured me on the make up choices and indeed they look incredible on camera. The airbrush makeup lasted for hours AFTER the wedding was over. She made my mother (who is in her 70's) look flawless and allowed her to feel like a queen for a day since she rarely does it for herself. My hair lasted throughout the entire time of the wedding and Michele even offered to stay after the ceremony (before cocktail) to gently remove my cathedral veil and add some finishing touches to my hair for the rest of the evening. She stayed free of charge and gave me and my bridal crew free lipsticks so we could touch up throughout the rest of the celebration. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to have an amazing experience at their wedding and who wants to feel at ease on a wonderful day! :0)

Words cannot describe how wonderful it was working with Michele for my wedding hair and makeup. Michele has an amazing personality and is such a pleasure to be around that it was a no brainer for me to use her for my wedding. She was always available via phone or email when I had questions or needed to get in touch with her. And her work is absolutely amazing! I went to her salon in Long Branch for my trial and was just blown away by how amazing I looked when she was done with me. On my wedding day, she showed up right on time and was more than prepared with anything she could possibly need. Her and her assistant (who was also amazing and did a phenomenal job) set up in our hotel room and got right to work and were super efficient and on schedule. Michele even helped me lace and fix my dress when I was getting ready. I could not have asked for a better person to have worked with for my special day! I would highly recommend Michele for your wedding beauty needs...you won't regret your decision!!

Michele was absolutely wonderful! Her energy and personality make her a joy to work with. Also her pricing is great when compared to others, especially based on her quality of service. She was incredible flexible and adaptable to our bridal parties needs. Her air brush makeup is flawless and leaves you feeling beautiful but not overdone. She also did an incredible job with everyone's hair, especially mine. My hair doesn't hold a curl at all but Michele got it to curl and it was wonderful that day! I would recommend her for anyone's big day!!

P.S. We love Michele so much that we are using her services for our cousin's Bat Mitzvah!!

Michele is fantastic! She was able to pull off amazing hair and makeup for my entire bridal party and mother in law. 5 girls with airbrush makeup and 7 total for hair. She made perfect time for every girl and did not make any of us feel rushed or flustered. She ensured final touch ups and every girl was stunning! My sister/maid of honor had a bad bruise on her leg and she offered to cover it up at no charge. She was so pleasant and enjoyable to work with. Arrived right on time (travelled to Weehawken, NJ). And was done exactly when she said she would be. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!!

Michele is awesome! From the moment we first chatted on the phone, her energy was infectious and I knew she was going to make the morning of our wedding awesome! I loved what she did at the hair/makeup trial and she perfectly executed it exactly the same the morning of the wedding. I couldn't believe how efficient she was and she definitely knows how to get things done on time and looking incredible. 2 of my bridesmaids have rosacea and the one is kinda severe, she made them look more gorgeous than we could have ever imagined. Trust me, I read hundreds of reviews for dozens of salons and private artists. I just had a feeling when i first spoke to her that she was going to be the right fit. She even rode over to the venue seperately because she wanted to get some more pictures and make sure that we didn't need any touch ups. Her personality is what sold me and her artistry was the icing on the cake. She is awesome and we HIGHLY recommend her.

I had Michele do my hair on my wedding day and it looked amazing! We took photos in the park and the wind did not take out my curls at all! She was also very friendly and went out of her way to make sure all 10 of my bridesmaids were happy! I found out about Michele through my makeup artist Dakota Evans and am so glad she introduced me to her! I would definitely recommend her in the future!

If you want show stopping make up and hair on your day - HIRE MICHELLE

She is super talented, and made my hair and airbrush makeup look better than I could have imagined.

She came right to the hotel on time, and made sure to connect with everyone there - no one felt left out

When it came time to take care of business Michelle did my hair and my bridal parties hair with grace and ease

It looked like we stepped out of a high price salon, but had the personalized service that is Bridal by Michele

Thank you and I will tell everyone how wonderful you are.

Michele did my hair and makeup along with my whole entire bridal party! Our wedding was in Atlantic City and Michele was flexible and traveled there without any concerns or worry. She was professional and always responsive to all of many questions. She is truly and artist and I am so very thankful that she was with me making me beautiful on our special day! To this day, there have been so many girls asking me for Michele's number so she can make them beautiful on their wedding day too. I would recommend her to anyone! She is the best!!!

With all the decisions to make leading up to my wedding day, Michele made it easy for me to decide on hair and make-up. Michele's extremely talented, has the best personality and is a true professional. She not only made my bridesmaids and I look beautiful, she made us laugh and we had so much fun with her! She contributed to my unforgettable wedding day and I can't thank her enough! You will not regret for a second having Michele do your hair and make-up on your wedding day!

OMG Michele is absolutely amazing at everything that she does and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her!!! She was great to work with and she was so sweet, patient, helpful and had great ideas. From the first time I met her at a bridal event, I knew she was the one. I did 2 trials with her for hair & airbrush makeup and loved everything that we did and I definitely recommend doing a trial before your big day. I also highly recommend the airbrush makeup. It's amazing and so light-weight. It literally stayed on all day and didn't come off at all throughout the night; we got married outside and took pictures at the beach and it still stayed on which was awesome. She came to our hotel to do our hair & makeup. She showed up on time, actually a bit earlier which was great!! She came with another wonderful girl as well. My girls brought pictures of their hair and makeup ideas and Michele and her assistant made all the pictures come to life!! All my girls LOVED their hair and makeup and said it was exactly what they wanted, even better!!!! Both my hair & makeup came out perfect. I absolutely loved both and received so many compliments on both. I don't wear a lot of makeup ever and Michele literally made me look and feel myself, but just more beautiful for my wedding day!! I was so happy! It was wonderful working with Michele for my special day. I could go on forever about Michele and her work! I highly recommend her! Also, compared to a lot of hair/makeup people that I researched, she was the most reasonable. Michele is amazing and she will literally make you look like yourself, just more beautiful on your wedding day!!! Thanks Michele.

Michele has been an absolute professional and is incredibly talented when it comes to hair and makeup. Although I cannot speak for her performance on the day of the wedding yet (our wedding is June 14, 2014), I can say that she has been a pleasure to work with and I am very happy with my choice to book Bridal by Michele for my wedding day. I recently had my hair and makeup trial, and Michele created a beautiful up do that perfectly compliments my veil and gown. She also went above and beyond and before the trial, met me at a store in Red Bank to help me find a beautiful comb to help complete my look. The hair and makeup trial went great and I look forward to the next few months of working with Michele.

Michele is amazing. She made us all look amazing the day of the wedding. She was fun and professional, which made the morning stress free. She is the best! Absolutely loved my hair and makeup.

We booked Michele for hair and makeup for about 10 people on June 7, 2013. Michele and her assistants did an outstanding job! Everyone in the bridal party looked great and we were all completed with time to spare. She even gave us all lip glosses to take with us so we could do a touch-up later. Michele is a true pro! She was also very accommodating with schedule changes for that many people and she was a pleasure to work with!!

Michele did my hair and make up for my wedding and I loved the way it came out. She knows how to make you look beautiful and natural!!! She knows how important it is to look like ourself on your wedding only more beautiful. My bridesmaids hair and make up looked incredible. Michele even came to my ceremony to help take my veil on and off and touch up my hair. She is extremely progressional and hardworking!

I really wanted my hair and makeup to look perfect for my wedding. I searched on the internet to find pictures of possible hairstyles to show Michele when she came to my home for my trial. I showed her my pictures that I narrowed down to my 2 favorite styles. I asked her which one she thought would look the best, and to my surprise, she enthusiastically responded, "Let's try them both!" She never rushed and spent so much time with me, and it was only the trial! She also made a suggestion to put flowers in the bridesmaids' hair, which she purchased and brought to us for the wedding day. At the end of the trial, I told her which one I preferred, and she said that if I changed my mind on my wedding day, it would not be a problem, which made me feel at ease.

On my wedding day, she arrived on time and said, "I'm yours and will stay as long as you need me." I will say that I was incredibly nervous that morning, but her outgoing personality quickly took my mind off of my nerves. She did hair and makeup for me as well as my 3 bridesmaids. After she was done, I could not get over at how perfect it came out! I was so pleased! I had some blemishes on my face that she was able to hide - people commented at my wedding on how flawless my skin looked. I had an outdoor ceremony in 90 degree weather, and my hair and makeup looked that same as when she first did it by the end of the night! I was so impressed at how dedicated she was in getting to really know what look I wanted and offered suggestions as well. If you're looking for that "WOW" factor on your wedding day, Michele will definitely provided it!!!!

Michele was hands down over accomodating for my bridal party, my mom and mother in law, as well as myself. My day went off without a hitch thanks to Michele and her assistant. To be in Atlantic City so early in the morning ready to go was a big help and sign of her professionalism. Not only did Michele make my wedding day perfect for all, but she made herself available for me before my shower which worked perfectly as a trial for the "big day". No matter what I write about her work, nothing can be put in to words to describe her enthusiasm and true joy to be doing what she does... Thanks Michele!!!

Michele is FABULOUS!!! I cannot rave enough about her! I highly recommend her! She is amazingly talented in both hair styling and cosmetic artistry. In addition, she is personable, sweet, humorous, fun-loving, patient, and kind. Michele is “designed” to being a wedding stylist! (Pun intended :). She is perfectly punctual (if not early), calm, prepared, organized, focused, creative, and flexible.

On my wedding day, she transformed, my mom, several of my bridesmaids, and me into princesses! I showed her pictures in several bridal magazines of what I was hoping for re: hair and makeup; she skillfully (and seemingly effortlessly) made them come to life! To tell you the truth, I think I looked better than the magazine photos!

One of the reasons I chose Michele was that SHE drove to MY location [about 1.5 hours north] so I wouldn't need to leave my family and friends to drive to a salon 30 minutes away the morning of my wedding. I can't emphasize how comforting it was to have HER come to US! I was so nervous that morning, and this alleviated so much pressure. It was like we were having a little party in the "bridal suite" with all of us preparing together. (During our “hair trial” in advance with Michele, my mom and I were able to get to know Michele, chat, laugh, and share experiences. Then, on the morning of the wedding, Michele went straight to work … You could see the wheels turning in her mind as she concentrated intently on bringing forth the “beauty within us” … with some help from her curling iron, hair pins, airbrush machine, and other cosmetic supplies, of course :).

One of my bridesmaids wanted to add a hairpiece to help her hair seem fuller in the back (she had purchased the hairpiece ahead of time to have it ready for Michele). Michele seamlessly incorporated it into her design, and everyone raved about my bridesmaid's hair! In fact, my bridesmaid had a professional event the very next morning after the wedding at which she was going to speak, so she "kept" her hair until then. She told me that everyone complimented her on her gorgeous hair all day!

On my wedding day, I was even more nervous than I thought I would be . . . increasingly anxious about everything being “just right” as the ceremony approached (I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so it’s not surprising that I would be this way.) Michele STAYED until the ceremony started to be sure that I was alright (in case I broke into emotional tears [with this being the culmination of months of preparation & anticipation], she could touch-up my makeup. :). She was reassuring, understanding, patient, and kind. I was so very grateful for this.

I would absolutely recommend Michele, and I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again!

I don't think that I could have looked more amazing. A few of my bridesmaids, my mother and myself had hair and makeup done. Michele was wonderful. I had contacted her about a month before my wedding looking for help. I had a bad experience and was iffy about finding someone. I knew from when I first spoke to Michele on the phone, that she was different. We clicked right away. The trial went smooth and I looked wonderful. She came to my house the day of and beautified us and every one she did looked stunning. I made sure to get a pic of the two of us. A wonderful person, excellent service and beautiful pricing. I couldn't have asked for anything better. Thank you so much Michele.

Michele is a BLAST to work with. From my trial until the day of my wedding, she was so much fun to be around. A lot of the make-up artists and hairdressers I spoke to were so stuck-up, but Michele was just a ball of fun always. She is incredibly well-priced for the work that she does. She came the morning of my bachelorette party to do my hair and make-up trial. I don't ever wear make up and was incredibly impressed by how natural my make up looked. Plus, Michele includes airbrushing in her costs, while most make-up artists charge extra for that service. I liked my hair at the trial, gave her some feedback, and she ended up recommending that I get hair extensions. I had never considered that, but to get the hairstyle that I wanted, I decided to look at extensions. She took me to Gregg's in Linden a few weeks before my wedding, helped me find extensions in my price range and that matched my hair color, and then set the extensions so they were ready to go the day of. She was prompt the day of the wedding, and although I was so nervous we would be late, she worked quickly and expertly to make sure me, my three bridesmaids, and my mom were out the door on time to meet the photographer. She even did my husband's hair the morning of! I liked my hair at the trial, but I LOVED it the day of the wedding. I'm glad she did my hair before my make-up, because it made me teary when I saw my hairstyle with the extensions (I used to have VERY long hair, chopped it off to donate, and was so happy I had the extensions to complete my desired look). She could tell my mom was nervous about putting my veil in at the venue, so she came with us to Mayfair Farms (which she was not contracted to do) to put finishing touches on my hair and to set the veil. Michele is wonderful, will go above and beyond for her clients, and her prices and personality are remarkable. I loved working with Michele and highly recommend her.

My hair and makeup looked fantastic!!!! Both held up over the course of a long day and night with tears, hugging, kissing, dancing and every other emotion one has on their wedding day. My mother and sister looked gorgeous and for my mother, who doesn't wear a lot of makeup, she did an excellent job of finding the balance between a finished/polished look without being 'made up'. Michele does airbrush makeup and hair which is the reason I chose to work with her. Like many hairstylists, what you ask for is not always what you get but I will say she was very nice about taking feedback to improve from the trial to the actual day. My biggest criticism is that she ran severely over our allotted time for hair which made me late for the start of photos. With every minute accounted for in a wedding day, it added some stress that we were so off our schedule. One of the reasons we were off is that she decided to sit down and eat lunch in the middle of my appointment! Since we didn't plan on a lunch break for her (she never asked for this), it really put us off schedule. That said, we were able to make up the time and I was extremely pleased with the quality of work she did.

Disappointed bride

It’s been a year and the more I think about it the more I think I should write about it, just to let future brides know my experience and hope it doesn’t happen to them on the best day of their lives. I hired bridal by michele for my wedding day. I met with her about 2-3 times before my wedding day and those times she was very nice and reassured me that everything was going to be on a schedule with my bridesmaids hair and makeup along with my flower girl and both my mother and mother in law. The morning of my wedding we were allowed to get ready at the venue and we got there at 730am to start getting myself and the other girls ready. It was 3pm and time for my first look pictures and Michele had only completed myself and my maid of honor. The girl she hired to do the bridesmaids hair left at 1 and left before the rest of the girls were completed. Both mothers started to become stressed out because the wedding started at 5. Michele didn’t help the situation when she snapped at both my mother and mother in law and told them to “relax!” They’ll be done in time. Which of course got them upset and made them even more emotional on an already emotional day. In the middle of the craziness she made my flower girl cry by being too rough on her hair. Like i said Michele was nice and helpful when we planned out my wedding day but when the day actually came around she didn’t follow the schedule she made and didn't hire enough girls to help her with everyone else’s make up and hair. My bridesmaids ended up helping each other do their own hair and makeup so they could be ready for the group pictures before the wedding started. I’m posting this because the more I think about my beautiful day, she is the only thing that didn’t work out on my wedding day and easily became the only thing i regret on that day. If I could go back and change anything on that day I wouldn’t of hired her.
