    Great experience working with Jacqueline Gellner

    Jackie did an excellent job with my makeup. She quickly figured out what I was looking for, and worked closely with me to make adjustments. She was also super responsive, punctual, professional, and kind as I navigated the planning process. Working with Jackie is easy and fun, even during a pandemic!

    Jackie is an extremely talented and professional MUA with the sweetest demeanor. Not only did she understand my vision for the look I was going for, but along the way would ask for my feedback to make sure we were still on the same page. She was very cooperative in working with my schedule (I booked my appt. with her very last min.) and was very easy to work with. I'm Asian with very oily skin, so her knowledge on working with my facial features and skin tone was also very much appreciated. She was simply a delight to work with and I would absolutely want her to beautify me again. I received countless compliments on my makeup during the entire wedding thanks to her! I would highly recommend her to my friends and family without hesitation!

    Awesome!!!!

    Jacqueline was wonderful from the beginning. The entire process of figuring out what look I wanted was very thorough and detailed. She arrived on time the day of and was very professional, kind, and easy-going. She made me and my bridesmaids look amazing! Her experience with diverse clients really came in handy for me and my bridal party, as I was specifically searching for a makeup artist experienced with east Asian eyes. I highly recommend hiring Jacqueline as your makeup artist!

    Wedding make up!

    Jackie is amazing! We chatted about the look I was going for- natural and elegant- and she nailed it! I don’t wear make up and wanted to feel like myself but more appropriate for a wedding occasion and she made me feel like a queen. She was super on time- worked so well with my hair dresser at the same time fussing over my head and making me into a queen bee for the day. Thank you for everything, you are my go- to make up specialist from now on! :) xo 😘

    Book Jacqueline now... seriously!!

    Jacqueline is absolutely amazing from initial contact to your big day and even after.

    She was referred to me by my sister who is very picky so I immediately had high expectations. When I first reached out to Jacqueline she asked me to fill out a pretty detailed questionnaire which was impressive in itself. I could tell from the questions how important it was that she get to know me and my style before we even meet in person.

    For my wedding trial it was evident Jacqueline took the time to review every detail and asked me clarifying questions. On top of that, she is so sweet. You'll instantly feel that she is a friend and just wants you to feel beautiful and confident. After the trail she asks for feedback and listens--- she listens people!!

    On my wedding day she was right on time with a huge smile on her face. Having positivity around you is so important and she was a ray of sunshine.

    EVERY ONE was glowing. I am telling you.. every single person left the chair a new woman with a huge smile on their face feeling like a star! One of my best friends was doing her own makeup because she has some bad experiences with make up artists. After she saw a few of the girls go she pulled me into the bathroom and said "Holy sh*t... Lisa... she is amazing. Can she do mine??" She immediately starting taking OFF all the makeup she put on and got into Jacqueline's chair lol! She looked stunning!!

    When Jacqueline was done with my makeup I don't think I stopped smiling.. all night. Seriously. I felt absolutely beautiful and my confidence allowed me to enjoy every single second.

    Book Jacqueline now, or refer the Bride to Jacqueline. You will be the rockstar of the group- I promise!

    Jacqueline-- thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you for being you and thank you for making me look and feel amazing.

    Jacqueline Gellner Makeup Artist's reply:

    Thank you again, so much, Lisa! You and your bridal party were so stunning and such a pleasure to spend the day with. Wishing you all the very best!

    Book Jackie Now!!

    Jackie was one of the best decisions that I made for my wedding! As soon as I saw her Instagram/portfolio, I knew I wanted to book her. I reached out to make initial contact and she was super friendly, responsive and informative. She asked me to fill out a detailed questionnaire before we met so that she could get to know me. I met Jackie in person for my make up trial shortly after and she was AMAZING! Jackie clearly reviewed my answers to the questionnaire and paid attention to my requests. She did such a good job recreating the look that I wanted and listened when I gave feedback on some minor details that I wanted to adjust. Not only was she super talented but her sweet personality was what completely sold me. I immediately booked her after I left the trial. I knew I had made the right decision and didn’t even meet with any additional make up artists. Jackie contacted me about a month out from my wedding to start going over logistics and helped me create a make up timeline for my bridesmaids and I. She was patient and answered all my questions and was flexible when I requested last minute changes. I knew I was in good hands! On the day of our wedding, Jackie was on time (she even beat me to the hotel), organized and prepared. She was so positive and such great energy to be around which helped me calm my nerves. She kept me on track and we finished ahead of schedule and had plenty of time for touch ups. She was also a huge hit with my bridesmaids. Jackie completely delivered and gave me my DREAM MAKE UP LOOK for my wedding! It was everything I wanted and then some. I honestly felt like the most beautiful bride and got so many compliments. The bonus to this entire experience this was that I walked away with a new friend! Jackie – I can’t thank you enough for everything!

    incredibly happy!

    I cannot say enough great things about Jackie! She was an absolute pleasure to work with. Professional yet extremely friendly and super easy to talk to. From her initial questionnaire to the trial to the day of - she was very responsive when/if I had any questions/thoughts. Jackie was able to pick up quickly the look I was envisioning for myself and my bridal party. Up to the week of - she made sure to touch base and confirm when needed which for a bride is wonderful and super helpful! On the day of; she came prepared and arrived on time! My bridal party and I received so many compliments on our make up!! I highly recommend Jackie! I look forward to using her services again in the future for any special events.

    Do not hesitate to reach out to Jacqueline for ANY makeup needs! She is truly a gem - a sweetheart with a great personality, she makes you feel comfortable from the very first moment. She is accommodating in every way imaginable and really listens to what you want with your makeup. My under eye area was a huge concern for me and she not only listened, but took extra care and did an AMAZING job.

    A few times I teared up during my makeup (my cousin rolled up and I had tears of joy, and another time was just stressed!) and she was the kindest person, showing immense patience and letting me have my time before restarting (and re-doing!!) my makeup.

    I cannot recommend Jacqueline enough. There are no more words I can say except THANK YOU for making me look and feel like a princess on my wedding day(s)!

    Everything I could ever ask for

    I have no words to express how I felt on my wedding day, and a huge part of it I owe to Jackie. She not only MASTERED the look I wanted, but she personally created a look that made me feel so incredibly natural yet giving me the "glow up" I wanted. I had to fight back tears once I saw the makeup so that I wouldn't ruin all her efforts, hehe. Highly recommended, and so much love for you Jackie!

    Jacqueline was the third makeup trial I did for my wedding, and the third time really was the charm. As someone who wears makeup everyday, I wanted something really special for my wedding day. I was definitely not going for the “no-makeup makeup” look. And Jacqueline really delivered, giving me the dramatic look I was going for without being too over the top. If drama isn’t your thing when it comes to makeup, then you’ve got something in common with everyone in my bridal party, and Jacqueline made them all feel beautiful in the level of makeup they were comfortable with.

    Jacqueline Gellner Makeup Artist's reply:

    Kristin, thank you so much for the lovely review! You were such a dream to work with! I LOVED that you love makeup and weren't afraid to take your look beyond the every day--you looked STUNNING! I had so much fun working with you and your bridal party and wish you and Anand the very best! xoxoxo

    Working with Jacqueline was absolutely wonderful! She is so easy to work with and very open to whatever you are looking for. I was pretty nervous about getting my makeup done professionally because I have extremely sensitive skin and have a lot of acne. I was worried that no matter how much make up I pile on I will not be able to cover it but I was totally wrong! Jacqueline is extremely talented and I LOVED my makeup. I felt like such a princess on my wedding day. I got so many compliments on my make up and till this day people come up to me and tell me how good my make up looked! She can do anything from beautifully natural look to the dramatic look. She also has a very calming personality. Even if you're stressed with everything going on during the big day, all of those worries are put on pause when you're in her presence! I would recommend Jacqueline to anyone! I will definitely be going back to Jacqueline for any future events where I need my make up done <3

    Jackie was magnificent. She did my bridal makeup and then 8 bridesmaids. Everyone looked beautiful. She put together a very helpful schedule for the day. She was talkative and fun. Jackie became part of the wedding party.

    Vanessa, thank you SO MUCH for the sweet, sweet words! I'm so happy I could be a part of your big day! We had so much fun! You are beautiful and I'm wishing you and your hubby the very best!!! xoxo - Jackie

    Stop looking now and just book Jacqueline!! She is a superb makeup artist and also an incredible woman! She will make you and your bridal party look phenomenal but will also be a calm, reassuring presence on your wedding day. Jacqueline is very professional and very good at what she does. I was drawn to her because she can do extremely glam looks as well as more natural ones (and everything in between) - she's sure to please everyone in your bridal party. She can also work with a broad range of face types -- and just makes everyone look amazing! My bridesmaids were blown away by how great they looked and we all kept getting compliments all night! I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day and Jacqueline was a major part of that :) Thank you so very much Jacqueline, you're the best!

    Jacqueline recently did the makeup for my entire bridal party and me for my wedding. She was able to get 8 girls done with time to spare.

    Jacqueline is awesome and an extremely talented makeup artist. She did my makeup for my Sangeet, Wedding ceremony, and reception. She really listens to what you want and offers suggestions on how to best complement whatever you are wearing. She is very familiar with South Asian weddings and does an amazing job. The trial is also really helpful because you can test out some different things and decide what you want for the actual wedding. She is very responsive, professional, and friendly. I highly recommend her to any bride!

    Jackie did my bridesmaids and I's make-up for my wedding 8/20/16 and she is simply one amazing MUA! She listened to everything I wanted and/or recommended what I should do. Jackie made me look so beautiful on my special day and I couldn't have asked for a better MUA! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone who is looking for a MUA for any event! Jackie is truly gifted at what she does.

    Where do I begin!?? Not only did Jacqueline have another wedding (with a 9+ bridal party) to do on the morning of my wedding but she arrived RIGHT on time and ready to go for my wedding! She was professional and kept me calm the entire time- which is crucial on the big day! During the pretrial, Jacqueline listens and crafted the exact look that I wanted! During the wedding, I trusted her (and did not even look in the mirror until she was done!) and when she was done, the results were of course PERFECT! ! I have never felt more beautiful and it was all because of Jacqueline's flawless talent! You are in good hands, especially on the biggest day of your life, with Jacqueline!

    Jacqueline Gellner Makeup Artist's reply:

    Thank you, Aqsa, for being the absolute perfect canvas, best client, friend and for trusting me on your big day! All the love and the best!!!! <3 <3 <3

    When I was looking for a makeup artist for my wedding, I was very critical about what I wanted (as any bride would be). Jackie went above and beyond to ensure I got exactly what I wanted. her skill, professionalism and punctuality were incomparable to any other artist I have come across! If you want to look absolutely flawless on your big day, I would 100% recommend her business

    Where do I even begin? Jacqueline is both an amazing makeup artist and person! I found her on Instagram while doing research about makeup artists in the area.. I instantly fell in love. I didn't have much time to do a trial because I booked her pretty close to my wedding date but she definitely did not disappoint. Jacqueline is very efficient and worked so well to make my look so perfect! I got SO many compliments from people who usually don't even like me makeup! I am forever grateful to have worked with such an awesome person on my big day!! Thank you so much Jacqueline my experience with you was more than perfect!

    I cannot begin to say enough great things about Jackie! I had a large bridal party, 12 in total, and every single person LOVED their makeup - which is hard to do. She made everyone feel extra beautiful which reflected in all my pictures, and everyone's makeup lasted the entire day/night! I highly recommend her to any bride!

    Jacqueline Gellner is hands down one the best, if not the best makeup artist in the DMV. She's incredibly talented-I have never felt as beautiful as I felt on my wedding day and that is because she did an amazing job with my makeup (I wish I could underline amazing). She took my vision and delivered exactly what I wanted; she blew me away with her artistry. All of my bridesmaids, my husband's groomsladies,and our mothers were very happy with how beautiful their makeup looked and we all received tons of compliments all day. Jackie did such a great job on my makeup that it stayed put for hours, through the heat and endless dancing. At the end of the night, after 12 hrs or so, I still had beautiful make up on. Thank you Jackie (and your assistant) for going above and beyond for me and my wedding party. You are truly talented and I am so glad AW introduced us!!
