    Wonderful wedding glam team

    Island glow bridal glam team made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! I was nervous about my look leading up to the big day and Michelle consulted with me to help me decide what I wanted and did a beautiful classic Hollywood glam curl and beautiful bridal makeup! She went above and beyond to ensure I loved how I looked that day! They got me, my mom, and our bridesmaids ready for the reception quickly, and are very sweet. I am very happy I found them for my big day.

    Wedding Hair & Makeup

    Michelle & Laikyn were very easy to work with! They were able to travel to the location where the bridal party was staying, and arrived on time to get started on the day of the wedding. They worked quickly but meticulously to get the bridal party looking beautiful, and finished up ahead of schedule which helped ease some of the wedding day timeline stress. I especially loved how my updo turned out. I had never had my hair styled in an updo before, and it was exactly what I wanted!

    Wonderful team

    Island Glow is a wonderful company for hair, makeup and spray tans! They even offer bridal packages which helped a lot! I booked the package that included airbrush makeup/hair for myself and traditional makeup/hair for 5 people and I had 5 bridesmaids, so it worked out perfectly! We added my mom to get her hair and makeup done, too. We had 2 people to do hair/makeup for 7 people and they were punctual, professional and very nice to work with! We all looked fabulous and I couldn't be happier with how we all looked!

    Michelle and her crew were excellent! We had a great experience with them! They travelled to my wedding location and knocked out everything with time left to spare! Couldn’t have asked for a better hair and makeup artist!

    Amazing and absolutely perfect

    I booked Michelle and the team for my wedding on 09/18/2021. I had my bridal spray tan the week of and I couldn’t believe how well the color turned out. Michelle did my makeup the day of and I honestly couldn’t have been any happier with the way it turned out. I was amazed at how well everything stayed on considering how hot it was. When planning everything out I considered just doing everything myself and I am so glad I didn’t. She was even able to do one of my bridesmaids who was having a hard time with her makeup

    Absolutely fabulous!

    From Day 1, Michelle was always quick to respond to inquiries and was so helpful and supportive when we needed to postpone our date almost a year due to the pandemic. When the day of arrived, Laikyn and Madison were so great to work with. Not only did they make my bridal party, mother, MIL, and grandmother feel gorgeous, they were efficient and finished ahead of schedule! Even though it rained all morning and stayed humid the rest of the day, our hair and makeup stayed looking fantastic all day and night! Thanks ladies!

    Bridal Makeup💄

    I have never felt more beautiful than on my wedding day and I am so thankful for Island Glow! They were so sweet, fast and flexible! Michelle really worked with me and also made sure we had a great timeline for my bridal party. I had ALOT of bridesmaids! I also know some of my bridesmaids had spray tans done a few days before and all had great experiences! I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to look and feel their best on their wedding day!

    Look no further!

    If you are like me and need to know you have a wonderful team that will take care of your needs look no further! I received the fastest, nicest, easiest spray tan ever a few days before our wedding! Then on my wedding day they arrived right on time and took amazing care of my mother, sister-in-law and myself. Friends and family have not stopped talking about my hair and make-up! I felt like a thousand bucks!!! I cannot thank this team enough!!!

    Excellent service

    Michelle and her team are pros and will guide you every step of the way. I got a custom spray tan a couple of days before the wedding with Bailee and she did an amazing job! I knew Michelle had a great reputation, but I was blown away with my bridal hair and makeup as well as my entire bridal party! The team spent extra time after they finished my hair and makeup to provide last minute touch ups. Most importantly, they were on time and prepared for a crew of 11 women! I highly recommend this talented and experienced team!

    Amazing Makeup, Beautiful Hair, Great Ideas!

    Michelle and Kayla were our stylists for my wedding and they were the sweetest! Everyone’s makeup looked phenomenal and the hair was beautiful! Michelle and Kayla did an amazing job and went over and beyond what we could have ever expected! I definitely have to say the mothers’ looks were hands down my favorite though! The mothers were not sure what hair style they wanted so Michelle and Kayla gave great ideas that looked amazing on them! Thank you both for everything!

    WOW - incredible team and experience

    The Island Glow Team and experience was AMAZING! Everything from the trial to the teeth whitening and tanning to day of preparation was perfect. The team was very professional and did a wonderful job making everyone's desired styles come to life. They listened to each bridesmaid and delivered beyond expectations - taking to heart requests for a 'natural' look and nailing hair styles based off pictures. We honesty could not have had a better experience. Thank you so much for making our special day so perfect.

    High quality experienced tan service

    I loved the service, professionalism and the people at island glow. I went there with my mom a few weeks before the wedding. The staff was highly knowledgeable. Checked us in on time and guided us through the entire process answering all of our questions and providing recommendations. It was a pleasure working with them and I highly recommend them to anyone else.

    BEST Make-Up Artist!

    Michelle from Island Glow did an OUTSTANDING job not only on my bridal makeup, but my entire bridal party’s as well as my Mom and Mother-in-Law for my July wedding in Washington, D.C.! I knew Michelle would be my forever go-to makeup girl, when she agreed to do my makeup for our sunrise engagement pictures last summer. She arrived at our apartment at 3:30 AM to do my makeup and made sure that I looked amazing for our engagement photos in D.C. She even helped me do my hair! On our wedding day, Michelle arrived early and set-up quickly in our bridal suite, all the while chatting and getting to know everyone who was there. She was incredibly friendly and such a joy to be around! Her positivity and contagious personality made everyone feel at ease and comfortable in her make-up chair. She even let some girls and my Mom bring some of their own make-up to use. Everyone’s makeup lasted ALL DAY and looked flawless in the D.C. summer heat! At the end of the night, my make-up looked just as it had that morning when Michelle did it. I felt like an absolute princess and didn’t want to take my make-up off that night! Michelle is THE BEST wedding make-up artist and she will forever be my go-to makeup and beauty girl!

    Island Glow Bridal Co's reply:

    Emily....I LOVE you to death! You will be the one bride I will truly MISS so much! Seriously, text me when you come to town!! We need to always stay connected! You two make the DREAM WEDDING OF THE YEAR!!! xoxo, Michelle

    Beautiful Job With Crazy Curls and Golden Skin

    Michelle was so kind and gracious! From the moment she first responded to my initial email inquiry I could tell she was so passionate about her work! Since I live in San Francisco and was only in Richmond for one weekend to do a trial before the wedding, she graciously fit me into her busy schedule and helped me (with some caring but honest feedback) plan a hair and makeup look that I absolutely loved!

    As a curly haired gal with a slightly darker complexion, I was worried about how to make my locks look elegant, and making sure the makeup palette fit the summery, natural aesthetic I was going for. But Michelle listened to everything I was looking for, helping me create a beautiful look that maintained my natural curl texture and complemented the floral headpiece I'd already purchased. And I felt the makeup look she crated was absolutely classic. She also did a lovely job with my sister/MOH's super fine curly hair. Both of our make up stayed put throughout the day in 90 degree heat!

    We absolutely loved working with Michelle and completely recommend working with her to make your wedding beauty dreams come true!
