Danielle Sent on 06/18/2025Bridal Makeup was amazing!
Denise was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was professional, punctual and responsive to all my questions/emails. During the makeup trial, she was detail oriented and accommodating to all of my preferences as far as the kind of look I was going for (which was kind of a throwback glam look). It was obvious that she's very knowledgeable about her craft and takes pride in her work. I was very happy with my bridal makeup on my wedding day. It looked great and it lasted all night. I would highly recommend her. -

I cannot recommend Denise enough! 5 stars is too little for her. From my trial to my wedding day Denise was an absolute gem. Denise made me feel like a queen from the moment I met her. Denise listened to my concerns and flawlessly executed the exact vision I was going for. I received so many compliments on my makeup and everyone was stunned at how natural yet glamorous she made me look. I cannot thank Denise enough for everything she did for me. -

Denise was amazing! She was super helpful during both my trial and the day of the wedding! She is very professional and explained each step of the process which made me feel super comfortable since wearing makeup is not an everyday trait for me. I recommend Denise for any and all of your professional makeup needs! -

Jennifer Sent on 07/14/2024A Dream to work with!
Denise was a dream to work with! She was so detail oriented from my trial to the day-of wedding make up for my mom and I! She was so helpful in creating the look I was going for an took her time to make me feel comfortable and understand what I liked and was comfortable with. She also took time with my mom the day-of to get her look right and cater towards her tastes as well. It even rained on our day and my makeup held up amazing all night even with the humidity and dancing. -

Courtney Sent on 09/25/2023Never felt so beautiful
I hired Denise for my wedding a week ago. I literally never felt so beautiful in my life . Every bridesmaid said the exact same thing . I also can’t even count the amount of comments I still get when people look at photos . She did an absolutely fantastic job and was the sweetest person ever . I booked her for my original wedding date but we ended up having to change the date for personal reasons . She was so flexible and wonderful to work with . I strongly suggest and recommend her for your wedding ! -

I was a 64 year old bride getting married for the first time this past December.Denise made me feel and look like a princess. Denise was very punctual and very professional. I wish I could have her do my makeup everyday. Loved her. -

Katherine Sent on 10/03/2019An incredible woman and talented makeup artist!
Denise was an absolute pleasure to work with. On top of her being so responsive from the first email I sent requesting pricing through the day of my wedding, she was also so professional, punctual, talented - and of course, so sweet. I had reached out to other make up artists prior to Denise who were priced higher, didn't want to work with such a big group, or were difficult in general. Denise was a breath of fresh air - my trial run at her home was so comfortable and easy. She communicated with me in the days leading up to the wedding, and on the day of, she was so good at keeping everything on schedule, which alleviated any extra stress from me. She is so so talented and did such a wonderful job making my whole party look beautiful! As if it couldn't get any better, my makeup was perfect from start to finish. Coming from a girl with oily skin who can sweat it out while dancing, this was so unusual. I didn't touch up my makeup once! I could not recommend a better person to be a makeup artist for your big day! -

Kelly Sent on 09/08/2019Absolutely the best!
I recently got married in August and used Denise to do my make up for the big day! I reached out to Denise a year before my wedding. She was very responsive and answered all of my questions right away. I met with Denise for a trial shortly after. She has a makeup studio room in her house for trials. I felt like a movie star as she did my make up! Denise asked many questions on how I normally wear my makeup and made sure she knew exactly the look I wanted. I wanted a natural look that made my green eyes pop. Denise did just that! Anytime I sent Denise an email after that, she was very quick to respond and thorough. She is extremely professional and her experience shines through her completed work. She made sure I felt comfortable and made the whole process completely stress free! She even reached out to me a week before the wedding to clarify all the details once again. On my big day, Denise did the make up for my bridesmaids and my mom as well. Everyone looked STUNNING! The whole night (and still now) we got comments on how beautiful our makeup looked. Many guests (and even my bridesmaids) raved about how our makeup was the most beautiful and natural they had seen! It was natural, yet highlighted all of our assets. I would recommend Denise for anyone looking for a professional, organized, and extremely talented make up artist for their wedding or any special occasion. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her!

Julia Sent on 06/14/2019Absolutely amazing!
Denise did such an amazing job! As a bride, you always want to look like a star on your wedding day. And she made me look amazing! She had everything to achieve the perfect look. My daughters had light makeup done and my sister and bridesmaid as well and we all looked stunning. She is very professional yet down to earth and fun. Definitely book with her! -

Kerri Sent on 12/17/2018The most amazing experience I have ever had
I used Denise for my wedding last year and just used her again for a wedding I was in on Saturday! I wish she could do my make up every day I wake up. I still have my lashes on and eye make up literally looks like it was just done, yup 3 days, I haven’t washed my face because I still look that incredible. I’ll never use anyone else, she is amazing! -

Alyson Sent on 12/08/2018Wonderful!
Denise was a pleasure to work with. She is incredibly talented and patient. I originally met Denise when I was a bridesmaid in my cousins wedding and loved how my makeup looked then so I immediately contacted her when I got engaged. I am picky and had very picky bridesmaids as well but Denise was patient and made everyone look and feel beautiful. All of my girls loved working with her. She is very sweet and professional. She answered all of my annoying emails throughout the year. Makeup never lasts on me but it lasted me until the next morning. I can not say enough about Denise. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to look and feel fabulous for any occasion. -

Breanne Sent on 12/05/2018Amazing!
Denise was absolutely WONDERFUL and was such a pleasure to work with. She did my makeup and my bridesmaids makeup for my wedding in November and she not only came early to set up but kept everyone on schedule and did such an amazing job. I was so worried that my makeup wasn't going to stay on all day (my ceremony and reception were hours apart) and I was even considering paying her to come to the venue for a touch up but there was no need! The makeup lasted all day and night!! I would deff recommend Denise! -
![Lacey]()
Lacey Sent on 09/18/2017I absolutely LOVE Denise! I fell in love with her from the moment I met her. She's so sweet and was literally a dream to work with. She was so accommodating and arrived early in the morning to fit with my time schedule and ran right on time with everyone's makeup. She made me and my bridesmaids (as well as my Aunt and Sister) feel absolutely gorgeous and everyone loved chatting with her. I would definitely look no further than Denise, you won't find a better makeup artist! -

![Katie]()
Katie Sent on 09/28/2014Wow!! I have so many good things to say about Denise. I feel so lucky that I was able to book her for my recent wedding at the Oyster Point Hotel in Red Bank, NJ. Denise traveled to the hotel where we got ready and did the makeup for myself, my mom and members of my wedding party. Everyone looked stunning!
She was one of the most professional, sweet and organized vendors that I worked with during the wedding planning process. She spent time in my makeup trial to explain the techniques and products and to help me craft a perfect look for my wedding day. I went with the airbrush makeup and absolutely loved the results!
She was flexible leading up to the wedding day as we adjusted times, schedules, and services for the wedding party. On the day of, she arrived early and did such a great job with everyone. She was amazing at adapting to their styles and personalities.
One of my bridesmaids never wears makeup and Denise worked hard to make her feel comfortable and still like herself with such beautiful makeup! Another bridesmaid had a photo of a model and Denise captured that look and made it even more beautiful.
She was also a rock for me the day of the wedding and helped to calm my last minute beauty jitters. She listened to me and made sure that I felt comfortable and confident before I walked out. I would highly recommend her to other brides! -
![Lynda]()
Lynda Sent on 11/19/2013Denise was awesome. She managed to do 7 girls by herself and we all came out looking fantastic. She is so easy to work with. She asks you questions before starting your makeup application to see what style you like and to find out if you are allergic to anything. She was there on time and was very progressional. I am so happy she was available for my day. The make up lasted all day and through the night. I would highly recommend Denise to anyone. -

Denise really takes her time and gives you exactly what you want. Thank you so much for making my day even more special! -

Zagana Sent on 04/04/2011I was recommended to Denise by a good friend who used her for her own wedding several years ago. I am so happy I called Denise to schedule my trial and later on for my wedding. She was so easy to talk to, get in contact with, and was also reasonably priced. I would recommend her to everyone who is in need of a makeup artist for their 'big day!'
