    May River Made Up Team is the Best of the Best

    Amanda and her team are the best of the best! They are definitely the team you want on your big day. I loved my hair and make-up and my bridal party loved their's too. Amanda and Sarah made getting ready so fun and relaxing.

    In addition to hair and makeup, Amanda came to where I was staying to give me and a few others in the wedding a spray tan. All the products Amanda and her team used were top of the line.

    Amanda is so easy to work with and listens to how you want to look on your special day. She's also an awesome resource! I was from out of town and I asked her for recommendations on a number of different things -- all of them were fabulous!

    I can't say enough good things about May River Made Up! They truly helped me feel extra special on my wedding day.

    Last minute life saver!

    Amanda with May River Made Up did an amazing job with my make up! I don't wear much in general and she did exactly what I asked and more! I found Amanda last minute and she rolled out the red carpet for me and came to my house to do my make up before my wedding. She answered all my questions and was super friendly! Her skills are delicate with the air brush and especially with eyelash extenders! I recommend 100% every time!

    Wedding Makeup

    Amanda is amazing! She did my makeup for my wedding day and my rehearsal. She made me look stunning and kept me calm through the entire experience! She is extremely professional and knowledgeable and I received so many compliments because Amanda made me look FLAWLESS! I couldn’t have imagined going with any other makeup artist other than her. She knew exactly what I was aiming for and that is what I got. I would recommend Amanda without hesitation. She is a highly skilled makeup artist and makes you feel truly special!

    Perfect hair + makeup for me and my bridesmaids

    They were kind, fun and flexible. The makeup and hair turned out perfect for everyone and everyone looked amazing including me (the bride)!

    If you're looking to feel and look like a princess, look no further

    When I met Amanda for the first time, I immediately knew she was the stylist and makeup artist for me. Her sense of humor, kindness, flexibility, and expertise are unmatched. I have very dry, sensitive skin and am also very fair complected. Amanda worked with me to find the best makeup for my skin, and she gave me her phone number in case I had any questions. She was there every step of way! On the day of the wedding, when Amanda entered the room, talk about zen vibes with a spark of humor! All of my bridesmaids loved her, and she made me feel like the most beautiful person in the world. When I saw myself in the mirror that day, I almost cried. Amanda and her team were incredible, and if I could have her by my side doing my hair and makeup everyday, I would. If you're looking for someone to make you feel and look your best, look no further. Amanda and her team are incredible.

    Wonderful HMU team!!

    Charea, Macy, and Becky with May River Made Up did an absolutely incredible job for me, my bridesmaids, my mom and my husband's mom!! I have seriously never felt so stunningly beautiful in my entire life! They were also so kind, easygoing, open to all of our requests, and our hair and makeup looked perfect all night thanks to them. I was coming from out of town and they were able to schedule a last-minute trial for me, which I greatly appreciated! Thank you ladies for being a dream HMU team!

    Perfect! Just what I needed.

    Amanda came to my villa and spray tanned me and it was soo simple and convenient. She was extremely kind and professional- plus very reasonably priced as well. I highly recommend her to anyone that is in need of a spray tan. My color looks amazing and very natural. Totally worth the money!!!

    Destination Bride

    Amanda was great to work with. I came in to Hilton Head Island from out of town, so I was unable to have a trial. I was very nervous but Amanda reassured me throughout the process and I am very happy with how it turned out! My makeup lasted the whole day. I had a hiccup with my hair: she brought someone with her who did my hair and I wasn’t happy with the first style she did - I think a trial would have avoided those issues. But she was very quick and willing to fix my hair to a style that was closer to what I wanted and I am very pleased with how it turned out! Thank you Amanda for making me feel beautiful for my wedding!

My bridesmaids, mother of the bride and groom, and flower girls looked and felt stunning. My hair and make up looked perfect and held up the entire night. I highly recommend using May River Made Up, you won’t regret it!!

    Professional, friendly service with beautiful results

    My experience with Amanda was amazing! She was warm, friendly and went above and beyond to achieve my "best" bridal look! I met with her a few days prior to my wedding day which made it much easier on the actual day! I think the cost ranged from $150-200.00 depending on the services (make-up, hair, attaching veil, etc). Regardless, she was definitely worth it!

    These women are incredible!

    The women at May River Made Up are absolutely amazing! They did my hair and makeup exactly as I pictured it for my wedding. I was ecstatic! They’re also super friendly and easy to talk to. My mother, sister, and sister-in-law were also very happy with their hair and makeup. If you’re looking for some glam for your big day - these are your ladies!

    Combs Wedding 03/01/2020

    Amanda and Amanda were the perfect team!! They not only gave us the exact look that we wanted but also pointed us in the right direction on what's trendy. Our moms looked absolutely stunning. Everyone's makeup looked smooth, natural, and they lasted throughout the day an night. We never looked better!! For hair, just WOW! She can recreate any photo you show her. Still don't know how she does it. Thank you both so much for making our special day even more special! We felt so glamorous... Now if you two could just come over everyday ;).

    MayRiver Makeup

    Amanda with MayRiver Makeup was great. I had a large bridal party and we had cancelations and girls that wanted to do their hair and makeup last minute. Obviously, this is not ideal but Amanda was able to accommodate and keep us on schedule. All of my girls looked so amazing and felt incredible. Amanda was able to provide them with confidence and bring out their true beauty! Thanks so much!!

    Bridal Trial

    I’m getting married in Beaufort, SC in October and had my hair and makeup trial with Amanda and Sarah in early April. They came to the inn I was at but also offered a local meeting place, still private, if I needed it. As someone who loves makeup, Amanda’s selection is very high quality and she was able to take a few pictures I had combined with my description and give me a look that I really enjoyed. I think I would tweak a few things and I feel very confident that she’ll pull off the perfect look come the big day. Sarah was super nice and I think we figured out what will work and look best come the big day. I put my hair through some trials throughout the day and it didn’t budge but also didn’t feel stiff. I may change my hair wishes but Sarah did a couple styles on me and she’s very talented. Both ladies and so easy to work with and laid back while being professional. I highly recommend.
