Elaine did my makeup & hair for my wedding at Key Largo Lighthouse on May 29th. She did an amazing job! She also did my bridesmaids hair & makeup and everyone loved it. The makeup she did was perfect for this south Florida heat it did not feel heavy at all but looked amazing!

Amazing Hair and Makeup
Elaine took my vague idea of what I wanted to look like on my wedding day and helped me to narrow down what I wanted. Then she executed it perfectly. She is quick, friendly and professional. My makeup and hair were flawless throughout the night.Elaine took my vague idea of what I wanted to look like on my wedding day and helped me to narrow down what I wanted.

Such modern, beautiful makeup and hair!
Our wedding was in the Florida Keys and we are from Minnesota so it was a destination wedding for everyone. The first time I met Elaine was on my wedding day. We never had a pre-hair and makeup trial, but it didn’t matter. She knocked it out of the park! By her responsiveness to all my questions before the wedding and following her Instagram, seeing all of the other beautiful looks she has created on other brides just made me so confident in my choice. She did not disappoint. I feel like I just gave her a vague description of what I wanted and she read my mind completely and executed exactly how I wanted. I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup, my bridesmaids loved their hair and makeup it was wonderful! Highly recommend!!!!!!!Our wedding was in the Florida Keys and we are from Minnesota so it was a destination wedding for everyone. The first time I met Elaine was on my wedding day.

Talented Vendor!
Elaine was absolutely amazing! Arrived on time and was very professional. She worked very hard to make each of us happy! She literally will do anything you want done and execute what you envision perfectly and quickly! If you are looking for a make up/hair artist the day of your wedding she is worth it! Also her Husband is a photographer for weddings and partners with Elaine! Unfortunately I didn’t know this, but have seen his work! Definitely worth asking her more information about this when you are looking for your vendors! Again, thank you Elaine for making my special day even more special!

Elaine made my day so special!
After seeing Elaine’s work on Instagram I knew I had to have her for my wedding makeup and hair! Not only is she the best at beauty, she was so kind, and fun to work with! She brought my vision to life and my hair and makeup was even better than what I imagined! She even offered to take some bridal getting ready photos for me and they are stunning! So if you need a photographer as well I highly recommend her team for that as well!

Fantastic experience working with Island Brides!
Elaine is a fabulous makeup artist and hair stylist! She is so talented and so easy to work with! She did all the hair for the bridal party and hair and makeup for me and I couldn't have been happier! The makeup was beautiful and natural looking, but held up all night during my outdoor Key Largo wedding! She is also extremely lovely to have in the room on such a stressful day. She is so sweet and put everyone at ease the minute they sat in the chair. I HIGHLY recommend Elaine for any special event!Elaine is a fabulous makeup artist and hair stylist!

Amazing experience! So talented
I loved Elaine! She is so personable. I have very distinct features and she was able to bring the beauty out of these. I have had my makeup done many times and have never been so happy! She complimented my natural beauty but brought in some glam as well. Highly recommend!I loved Elaine! She is so personable.

Elaine was simply AMAZING!
If your eloping or trying to find a makeup and hair artist down in the Florida keys- look no further- stop your search- BOOK HER! I planned my wedding in 3 months and am a huge makeup guru. I was quite hesitant to book someone and not do my own makeup. Elaine blew it out of the park. I’ve never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day and my bridesmaids raved about her all night long! Another plus was that my makeup lasted ALL NIGHT- in 90 degree heat and humidity. Elaine was simply amazing and more than I could of asked for!If your eloping or trying to find a makeup and hair artist down in the Florida keys- look no further- stop your search- BOOK HER!

Hair and Makeup Artist for August Wedding
Elaine is a fantastic hair and makeup artist! She made me feel beautiful and was able to bring my vision to life. She offered advice to ensure the look I wanted came out perfectly. She was a joy to work with and so responsive to all my questions. I would recommend Elaine to anyone needing hair and makeup done for any event, and will be using her in the future for future events.Elaine is a fantastic hair and makeup artist!

Absolutely breathtaking hair and makeup done by Elaine
Elaine did my hair and makeup along with all of my bridesmaids makeup. She transformed all of us into absolutely gorgeous women individually highlighting all of our beauty. I was so shocked at how beautiful I was that day and I'm so happy that we chose Elaine to do our hair and makeup. She is kind, professional, and extremely talented. Everything was perfect. I was so pleased with the result that I didn't even want to take my hair down her makeup off for the whole week lol. The hair and makeup will easily last all night into the next day. If I had to do it all over again I would pick Elaine over and over again. She does incredible work and transformations making you feel like the most important is special person in the world on your day.
Elaine also took quite a few professional photos of the bridal party.
I give her 10 out of 10. As for bridal numbers, we had 5 hairs and 7 total makeup services performed.Elaine did my hair and makeup along with all of my bridesmaids makeup.

Elaine is the most genuine person she is beautiful inside and out! Her dedication to her art is seen across every aspect of her business. She loves each and every one of her brides individually and is a self-made woman! I couldn't have been happier to book her for my wedding last month. She is extremely responsive, kind, and a true artist! She is the real deal in the Florida Keys!Elaine is the most genuine person she is beautiful inside and out!

Best decision you'll make!
If you're so lucky to have found Elaine, stop your hair and makeup search, and hire her now. It will be the best decision you ever make for your wedding. I had a horrific experience with another girl before finding Elaine last minute, and I am sooooo grateful I did—the differences were night and day! Not only is Elaine talented and an expert in hair and makeup, but she also has honest pricing: a truly unique find. At the trial, Elaine asked me what I wanted at every step to ensure we stayed on the same page and the end result was magical. At the wedding I felt so calm and comfortable having Elaine there by my side and everyone, including the moms, were all smiles. We finished on time too, which is so important! Their makeup was exactly what they wanted and their hair was perfect...our makeup lasted the whole night, there was not a bobby pin in sight, our hair stayed perfectly in placed and my hair even stayed curly and in place the ENTIRE night!!!!! I've heard stories about the curls falling, or hair styles coming out but not with Elaine. Not one of the 8 women in my bridal party had any issues throughout the night and they felt beautiful—exactly as they should. Elaine was by far the best decision I made for my wedding and she'll be your best decision too. Hire her. You won't regret it.If you're so lucky to have found Elaine, stop your hair and makeup search, and hire her now. It will be the best decision you ever make for your wedding.

Hello Gorgeous Locks
Elaine was perfection during the hair trial and even more so on the wedding day. We made minor adjustments from the hair trial and she knocked it out of the park. The bridal party and other family members were set in rapid time and then all finished ready to go with no rush for the first look and other photos. Her creativity on each girl's hair can be seen including my own!Elaine was perfection during the hair trial and even more so on the wedding day.

BEST decision I made while planning
Elaine was magical with my makeup on my wedding day. Not only did she go above and beyond to be there that day and kept things going smooth, she knew EXACTLY how to make me look beautiful and fresh for my beach wedding. She was like having a calm friend getting ready with you, only a friend who can look at your face and instantly know how to make you look like a goddess. I looked (and felt!) amazing all day and night and it was perfect. 10/10 absolutely recommendedElaine was magical with my makeup on my wedding day.
