    Wedding Makeup

    Carolyn was absolutely fabulous to work with. She did my wedding makeup for me as well as on my matron of honor. She was easy-going, very competent and flexible. She listens well to my requests for changes, additions to my makeup and for my matron of honor also. Appreciated her flexibility as she set up in my first hotel room and we had to relocate to another room after she had set up her kit on the day of the wedding. Needless to say, I was somewhat stressed by the room change but Carolyn took it all in stride so I really appreciated that. I would strongly recommend her for any of your makeup needs! Thanks so much, Carolyn!

    Great Experience!

    So thankful I was able to work with Carolyn! She traveled to me for my trial run and for the wedding, without hesitation. She was on time, ready to start makeup and worked quickly! I had 7 people get their makeup done with enough time before pictures started. Carolyn is so sweet, and makes sure that you like her work before your big day. I couldn't recommend her more, she's great!

    Carolyn Lovely made the morning of the wedding easy!

    Carolyn Lovely made the morning of the wedding easy! It was a pleasure to work with her; she applied makeup to both the bride and mother of the groom, and we were both happy with her artistry. Carolyn is professional, responsive, and offers a good value for her services. We are happy to recommend her and would work with her again.

    Carolyn was great and helped myself and my bridesmaids feel beautiful on my wedding day. She made sure everything was safe and sanitized. She was very accommodating and flexible.

    Awesome!!!!

    Carolyn was able to my make up for my wedding last minute. Even though I found her a week before my wedding, she was able to do a trial run. She took the inspirational pictures I sent and incorporated elements from all of them to give me the perfect look. She really did a great job and made me feel and look like a bride. My fiancé doesn’t like a lot of make up and he loves the look - it looked so natural.

    Beautiful makeup, great service

    Carolyn’s makeup was beautiful, and her service is fantastic. She always responds quickly (much more quickly than any other vendors I’ve communicated with), her pricing is reasonable, and she is accommodating and flexible in her schedule. The makeup came out exactly the way I hoped it would. Can’t recommend her enough!

    Wonderful!

    I was so surprised by the affordability and the quality she provided. Truthfully, I would've paid 2-3x what she charged. She was responsive, listened to my opinions, and exceptionally talented. Highly recommend!

    Fantastic Services

    Carolyn was great! She was so flexible with changing dates and keeping up with regulations. She listened to what I wanted and worked steadily in stages so the makeup wasn't too heavy, but could be built upon if I wanted more. I don't wear makeup often and when I do it's very simple. She was able to tweak what I wanted, match my skin tone perfectly, and make my hubby's jaw drop with both the practice session and my wedding. Even though I asked her to travel, she was more than willing and great with her responses! I'd definitely recommend her to anyone!

    Hired Carolyn Lovely to do makeup for a professional photo shoot and could not have been happier with get professionalism, knowledge and makeup artistry. On time and prepared for anything, very clean and just a joy! She's so upbeat and calm you can't help but feel more relaxed and calm with her on your team for any event.

    She went to the wrong location

    My MOH and I hired Carolyn as our makeup artist for my wedding this past weekend. The trial went great and I was very excited to have her do my makeup. Come the day of the wedding, 15 minutes after she was supposed to arrive, I get a text from her asking to resend the location as she thought she was in the wrong place. I then get a call from my planner saying that Carolyn went to Port Gamble when my wedding was in Monroe. The complete opposite direction. She apologized to my MOH and said that she never got the change of address for the wedding when there never was one. The venue had always been the same, and not only did she get the location from us when my MOH first contacted her, but she also got it from us during the trial, as well as from my planner the couple weeks before the wedding so I am really not sure why she thought there was a location change. She did refund my MOH all her money back so we are thankful for that. Just incredibly disappointed in how this played out as I then had to scramble to figure out a couple hours before the start of our photos, how to get my makeup done when I didn't bring any of my own as I was expecting it to be done by her. She never apologized to me, just to my MOH.

    Lovely Makeup Artistry's reply:

    Hi Sabrina,

    Thank you for the honest feedback. I am genuinely sorry and did everything I could day of to try and get an artist out there for you. I am sorry for not reaching out to you directly to apologize, I just thought that may add more even more stress. I showed up to Port Gamble and started setting up at 11am because that was that was what was in my notes and could not find any other address you or the MOH had sent me. After 15 minutes I realized I may be in the wrong spot and that’s when I reached out to you and the day of coordinator. If memory serves correctly that was the original location when you first contacted me last year and we briefly talked about the location changing at the trial. That was months before the wedding and do not have any record of us talking about a location after that. I again apologize that this happened and will take this as a learning opportunity. Know that I and taking this to heart and am genuinely sorry. I will also be making changes to my business practices to insure that this never happens again. For example, I will no longer be taking appointments or discussing details in person or over the phone without immediate follow up. I will also be implementing mandatory contracts and day before follow ups with no exceptions. I hope you still had amazing wedding in spite of this and genuinely wish you all the best.

    Thank you,

    Carolyn
