The Absolute Best MUA: Monica!
Monica is the BEST— a sweet and skilled gem of a human being who is a master of her craft. I reached out to Monica without too much advance notice prior to the date of my wedding, but I was in luck that she was able to accommodate my wedding date! From the first point-of-contact all the way through to putting finishing touches on the big day, Monica has been so friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Her communication and organization are stellar, and it’s easy to tell she’s the PRO, as she has her process locked down, streamlined, and seamless. Each set of brushes or tools used was always clean and fresh! Her setup was neat and tidy and had each of my bridespeople and myself feeling like VIP celebrities while in her makeup chair. Her schedule was immaculate and kept us all feeling relaxed and on-time, and her mindfulness was ever present, as she’d always ask whoever was in the chair about their skin type/concerns.
She maintained everyone’s natural charm while also creating such polished, beautiful looks for everyone. She effortlessly understood my inspiration and vision during our trial and gave me the wedding day glam sesh of my dreams. On top of it all, she provided thoughtful touchup kits with sweet notes to my bridal party.
If you’re looking for the best make-up artistry experience, look no further than Monica! She’ll have you feeling like a million bucks, all while being an upbeat, smiling presence during the getting ready hours.
A+ and 10/10 recommend Monica for any of your makeup needs.

Wedding Day Bride
I have never had my makeup professionally done but Monica has set the bar! As soon as we connected she was so accommodating to help me at every step. I wanted a natural bridal look that would be captured well in photos. She asked me to send examples of the look I was going for. When I had my make up trial, Monica took her time to curate a timeless bridal look. Not only that, she made me feel so comfortable like I have known her forever. After the trial she kept me on track by organizing a detailed wedding day timeline for my bridesmaids and mother. All the preparation really helped decrease my stress. Of every vendor/business I worked with during my wedding planning, Monica was the best at reaching out to me and the fastest to respond in all communications. She also seamlessly managed communications with my wedding planner.
On the big day, Monica was at the hotel before the first bridesmaid and got straight to work. She did not skip a beat or break a sweat. Monica gave each of my girls the runway ready look. They were stunning! As the bride, I got the special spa treatment prep. Monica’s personality is so fun and loving. She had all my girls laughing. I felt so blessed to have Monica there as she helped us create some special memories.
Monica perfected my bridal look and was able to execute exactly what I envisioned. She made me look and feel like a beautiful bride on my wedding day.
Thank you so much!

The best of the best!
Monica was referred to me by my best friend because she did her makeup for her wedding. I had a bad previous experience with another makeup artist and Monica was so nice and helpful to get my confidence back up for my wedding. She did a trial at my house and was so flexible and listened to what I really wanted. She was in constant communication with me in the days leading up and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. On the day of my wedding, she was so sweet with my bridesmaids and my family, she fit right in. She’s your hype girl, your best friend and will be there for you every step of the way. She really brought out the best in all of us with our makeup and she’s just perfect.Monica was referred to me by my best friend because she did her makeup for her wedding.

Pure Talent and Kindness!
Monica did such an amazing job doing the makeup for my wedding. She personalized her makeup techniques for the desires and features of each girl. None of my bridesmaids or I generally wear a lot of makeup. Monica made sure everyone looked gorgeous and just like themselves (but a party elevated version!). The makeup looked natural and lasted all night!
You end up spending a significant portion of your most special wedding day getting ready. So it is incredibly important that the people you spend it with help to make your day joyous, fun, and special. Monica brought all those things to the morning makeup session. She was kind, bubbly, professional, and joyous. She made me feel so special! She helped plan out the schedule for the morning to make sure that all the girls were ready in time for photos. She did a great job of cleaning brushes and making sure she didn’t cross contaminate products or brushes between girls.
I once heard that on your wedding day you should feel like a bride, feel beautiful, and feel like yourself. Monica made sure I felt all those things. ❤️ I would 11/10 recommend Monica for any of your makeup needs.Monica did such an amazing job doing the makeup for my wedding.

Monica is a stellar makeup artist
Monica is such an amazing makeup artist! She asked about my skin type and what type of makeup I wear. I hardly wear makeup as it tends to irritate my eyes and skin. She kept everything clean with new tools for every girl. She has the most amazing and friendliest personality. She kept all of the girls on schedule and we were ready for my sister’s big day on time. I received so many compliments. The makeup lasted all through the wedding and did not cause any irritation or discomfort. The bride, bridesmaids, mother of bride, flower girl and aunts of the groom looked stunning 🤩 I highly recommend Monica ❤️Monica is such an amazing makeup artist!

Girl with the Glam!
Monica was the makeup artist match made in heaven. Not only was her energy positive and infectious. She was punctual, accommodating, and was able to execute the vision I had in mind for my special day. She was a true professional and communication leading up to the makeup application and was consistent. She also showed up to the location for touch ups! I would recommend her to anyone for an any special event!Monica was the makeup artist match made in heaven. Not only was her energy positive and infectious.

100% recommended
Monica is amazing! I 100% recommend her services, she made me feel so comfortable and I absolutely love that she respected my "wishes" on what I wanted that day. I find it hard to set boundaries, especially in areas where I don't know that much (make-up being one of them) but she was so gracious and made me look like me but way prettier, which is what I wanted.
The products she used were great too and stayed on my face all day. You'll be lucky if she gets to be part of your special day.Monica is amazing!

Amazing Makeup Artist
It's hard to trust someone on your big day to do your makeup but monica is patient, kind and willing to work with you to get exactly what you want. I felt so beautiful the whole day and she really went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with my look. She also just has a great way of calming you down before you walk down the aisle which helped my nerves so much. I couldn't reccomend her enough!It's hard to trust someone on your big day to do your makeup but monica is patient, kind and willing to work with you to get exactly what you want.
