    Amazing, amazing hair and makeup!

    I had Gianna do my hair/makeup for my wedding as well as the hair and makeup for my mom, sister, and mother in law. Everyone looked beautiful and was very happy with how their hair and makeup turned out. The team as a whole was very easy to work with, responsive to emails, knowledgeable about hair and makeup, and really fun to talk to during the process. I highly recommend their services!

    A dream of a beauty team!


    I honestly don’t have enough room on this page to truly express my gratitude to Gianna and her wonderfully talented team.. As soon as I met Gianna I knew she would be who I could trust on my wedding day and she definitely did not let me down. I am the type of bride who does her makeup and enjoys doing it so I needed someone who knew their stuff!!! I wanted to go with a more dramatic effect for an evening wedding and Gianna went above and beyond what I even thought was possible… Every time we met we had such a genuinely great time. She also matched me for my hair extensions which were so perfect that my usual hair girl praised her. Gianna completely made me feel at ease; she is a beautiful soul who truly loves what she does..making her clients feel their most beautiful and it shows!!!!!!

    Gianna and her beauty team had myself and 10 other women looking amazing and ready to go by the time our photographer arrived who couldn’t believe it!!! They were punctual, took their time, and just wowed every single one of us (and our guests)!! Our makeup lasted all day (and we took pictures outside on a hot June day for a few hours). Gianna introduced me to Michele who was my hair stylist for the wedding day. Michele is so sweet and kind hearted… she effortlessly styled me exactly the way I had envisioned. I can’t say enough how perfect everything was and how much she truly cared that I was happy. She was so patient and kind when dealing with my MIL who is forever unhappy with her hair. Thank you Michele! The team Gianna & Michele brought with them Deidre & Erica were also so talented and just fit in perfectly with all of us; We chit chatted the whole morning away and had so much fun! My girls were ecstatic with their looks and said so all day to me. Sometimes, I’ll admit…myself and others will go and tweak our make up or hair after it’s done professionally …. With Gianna, Michele and their teams there is none of this., not even a thought. They bring perfection.


    Having Gianna and her team there on my wedding day & knowing I was in her hands allowed me to feel as a bride should on her wedding day.. I got to sit back, enjoy the getting ready process, and see all my girls & myself feeling our most beautiful. Thank you always!!!!!

    Perfect even with unexpected sickness

    Before I booked my hair/makeup I decided to do a trial to make sure I’d like the results and I’m glad I did! I went in thinking I knew what I wanted, but after Tina and Gianna worked their magic I found that I needed to make some tweaks and they helped me get to where I wanted to be. Gianna unfortunately ended up coming down with a virus the day before my wedding but Deidre was able to step in and be there to do my makeup on the day. I was so thrilled with the end results for myself, all of the bridesmaids and the moms. My only suggestion to future brides is to consider getting more than one person to do hair and makeup depending on your timing! I waited a bit too long and only had one hair stylist and two makeup artists. Even though Tina handled it wonderfully, I wish we could have relaxed a bit more in the morning before getting started.

    Gianna Giacona Hair and Make up Artistry's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words Carly!!! 💕 Deidre was thrilled to be a part of your special day and said it was a pleasure to work for you, your family and your bridesmaids ! Thank you for your suggestions as well:) Please send us pictures! We would LOVE to display on our website and submit to the magazines. Hope you are enjoying being a newlywed and we hope to see you agin in the future! XOXO- Gianna & Team

    Beautiful airbrush makeup!

    Gianna was so helpful in helping me choose my wedding day makeup. She even let me come in multiple times when I decided to change things up last minute. She was very patient and knowledgeable with the wedding day makeup for me and my girls. Thank you so much Gianna! I will definitely recommend you to my friends :)

    Amazing! Highly recommend!

    I can't even begin to put into words how amazing Gianna and team were on my wedding day. My makeup looked incredible and my bridesmaids looked stunning as well. They made everyone feel extremely comfortable and their patience, talent and passion for what they does is evident. I could not have been happier! Thank you so much for making my day that much more special!

    Such an amazing team!!!

    I don't think I will be able to do Gianna and her team justice with this review. Finding the right people for hair and make-up is a daunting task and you really want to find the team that will listen to you and make you the best version of yourself on your wedding day. Gianna and her team were just that and more. They were very responsive when we were finalizing the details, which was a tremendous help as I was an out-of-town bride. For the day of the wedding, my friends and family had the VERY best time getting ready!! They were wonderful and really made the day that much more special. My hair and makeup was exactly like I wanted. My bridal party had very different tastes in make-up and hair and They listened to each request kindly and executed their looks effortlessly. I really can't thank Gianna and her team enough - I felt beautiful all day long! Highly recommend!

    100 stars!!

    I cannot rate Gianna and her team highly enough! They made me feel absolutely beautiful and like a princess on my wedding day. They are a dedicated team of professionals who make sure even the smallest details are taken care of to make a person feel and look her absolute best. They were in touch with me through every step leading up to my big day, and were super easy to communicate with and work with. I look forward to using them for future events. Wish I could rate them with 100+ stars!

    Best day ever!

    I absolutely loved my hair and makeup for my wedding! Not only mine, but all 11 of the girls in my wedding who also had their hair and makeup done. Everyone looked stunning. Leading up to the wedding, Eliza, her assistant, was very responsive and so sweet. I highly recommend using Gianna and her team!

    I couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding day thanks to Gianna and team! Erin was my makeup artist and not only was she extremely talented she was so sweet and respectful to my entire bridal party as wel! She listened to all of my concerns and needs and rocked everything! I changed a couple of things from my trial and without any hesitation she nailed it. You are amazing!! Jojo was my hair stylist and I couldn't be any happier! She is so talenented and perfected every picture my bridal party showed her!! They are both so professional, kind, and skilled. I had the pleasure of meeting Gianna and her assistant at my trial and they are sweethearts as well! Thank you all for making this whole experience stress free! I recommended them to everyone!!! I can't wait to show you all of my professional photos! I will be using you guys for any future events!!!

    I had Erin H. do the makeup for my entire wedding party and I can not say enough great things about her!!!! She gave me her cell number at my trial and answered any questions I text her within 2 minutes!! Even when I was trying to get in touch with the company, if I did not get a response quick enough -- I just reached out to Erin who was always prompt. I LOVED my makeup, and my bridesmaids said it was the best makeup they have ever had done for a wedding. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Erin for makeup. :)

    I am so thankful that I found Gianna Giacona for my special day. The artists were so professional and really fulfilled my vision. I wanted a natural look and my skin looked flawless in photographs. They were able to accommodate 10 bridesmaids and both the Mother of the Bride and Mother of the Groom. My artists spent so much time on me and touched be up before they left to make sure that I was 100% satisfied. I liked their system of paying prior to the event so I had no worries about money the day of. Both hair and makeup were so versatile that everyone from my mom to my younger cousin was happy. I have been in numerous weddings and would definitely say it IS Worth every penny. The reviews don't lie and I would not change a single thing about my wedding look.

    Erin and Danielle did the hair and makeup for me and my bridal party this past month. They both did an AMAZING job and everyone was very happy with the way their hair and makeup came out. It's usually hard to please a big group of girls, but Erin and Danielle are so amazing at what they do and succeeded in making everyone look natural and gorgeous! They were a pleasure to work with all along, and were so professional and efficient on the wedding day. It was really important to me to look my best and feel beautiful on my wedding day, and Erin and Danielle were able to do exactly that for me. I would 100% recommend them for wedding hair and makeup...you will not be disappointed! Thank you to Gianna, Erin, Danielle, and Eliza for making every step of the way a breeze!!!!

    I cannot say enough about how amazing and wonderful Gianna's team was on my wedding day. Danielle (hair) and Erin (make up) made every single one of my bridesmaids, my mother, and myself look and feel our very best. They both arrived earlier than they needed to and were able to get all 10 of us done in a timely manner. Everyone looked so beautiful and the hair/make up lasted all night long. We were all getting complimented the whole entire day. Even the bridesmaids, who have all been in a ton of weddings, said that this was the best they ever looked for a wedding! I cannot thank Gianna, Erin, and Danielle enough. Gianna and her team are highly professional and very easy to communicate with. I 100% recommend them for anyone and everyone!! I hope I can use them again soon!

    Danielle (hair) and Erin (makeup) are absolutely amazing! Everything about my hair and makeup was flawless. I could not have felt more beautiful walking down the aisle. I'm not someone who normally wears a lot of makeup, but Erin made everything look very natural. They are both amazing. Words aren't enough to say how highly I recommend this Gianna's hair/makeup studio. Thank you for making me feel beautiful on my big day!

    My bridesmaids and I were SO happy with Erin and Danielle. They did an amazing job and made everyone look beautiful!! We could not be more pleased with the results. The hair and makeup lasted all afternoon and all night long. It was amazing because we had a hot and sunny day, yet the makeup and hair remained perfect and in place throughout the whole wedding. I was able to completely relax and enjoy the day because I was in such good hands. Thank you so so much!

    Gianna, her entire staff and team were simply amazing. There are not enough words to express how wonderful and professional they all are. Erin did my bridal makeup and 9 other bridesmaids as well. She is fantastic! She came early and stayed until she knew each and every girl was happy! Not to mention we stayed perfectly on time! She did an excellent job and I have never before felt so truly beautiful. She did such an amazing job, I felt gorgeous and just beamed with how wonderful I felt. The makeup lasted all day and night without looking smudged or faded, and I received so many compliments. She listened to how I and the other girls wanted our makeup done and she made any and all adjustments along the way. Throughout the entire wedding planning process Eliza was always prompt in responding to any emails or questions and always kept in contact and provided any help leading up to the big day. I would highly recommend hiring Gianna, Erin and her entire team if you want a stress-free and flawless start to your wedding day. Not only will you feel beautiful but this team is so talented you will not have to stress or worry about the final outcome because it will be stunning and perfect. I can’t speak highly enough, I wish I had another big event so I could hire Erin again! Thank you for everything!!!

    Thank you so much Gianna and team for making me and my bridal party look absolutely flawless! Erin was my makeup artist and I could not have been any happier with her work. Not only is she an extremely talented artist, but she is so sweet and down to earth as well. I knew at the trial that I was in great hands! Danielle was my hair stylist and she was not only amazing at styling all of our hair, but she was professional, funny, and knew exactly what to say to keep me calm! I couldn't have picked a better team of girls and I would recommend them to anybody. Not only was it flawless in person, but we received some photos back and they look absolutely amazing!! Thank you girls for making my wedding day unforgettable, I am so greatful for all that you guys did for me on such an important day in my life!

    Gianna and her team of stylist did an amazing job. The hair and makeup was beautifully done and looked gorgeous. Both Erin (makeup) Danielle(Hair) were professional and a pleasure to work with. They arrived on time and make sure we were on schedule throughout the day. Gianna and her team made me feel like the most beautiful bride. Danielle did an amazing job with my hair. It was everything that I wanted and much more. Erin did a flawless and natural look and was able to capture my vision. You will not regret having Gianna and her team on your wedding day. Highly Recommended :)

    I Absolutely loved my hair and makeup for my wedding!! Not only was I in love with mine, my bridesmaids were too! Erin was my Makeup artist and she did EXACTLY what I wanted( I am extremely picky) It was completely flawless and she was awesome to work with! She doesn't rush and she is a perfectionist so everything was PERFECT! Danielle was my hair stylist and she was GREAT as well! I was amazed on how much hair she made it look like i had! ( I have super fine hair). Leading up to my wedding they were so accommodating and helpful! They worked around my crazy work schedule. I would recommend them to anyone! 2 of my friends already booked them. Couldn't have picked a more perfect team!

Highly recommended!!!! You guys rock!

    Everything was a breeze in working with your business. Communication was easy and all my questions were answered promptly; it was one less headache in the whole wedding planning process!

    Erin is very talented and I was so receptive to all of my wants and needs. She arrived early; she was set-up and ready to go before scheduled time. She seamlessly fit into the relaxed atmosphere I desired during what could be a stressful time. We all enjoyed having her present during our time getting ready in the bridal suite. My girls were thrilled with their finished looks. Erin gave me the flawless look I was hoping for and made me feel extra beautiful. My make-up stayed right in place through all my tears and sweat!

    The experience & results were better than I expected.
    Thank you so much!
