    Highly recommend!

    Monica was such a pleasure to work with!! I hired Monica for bridal makeup for myself and my bridesmaids. She was super flexible and easy to work with and was able to arrange an assistant so all 7 of us could have our makeup done in a few hours. Monica and her assistant were a great addition to our getting ready party. Friendly, funny and down to earth. Most importantly, everyone looked beautiful and loved their makeup!

    Flawless and Lasted ALL DAY

    Monica made both my mother and MIL feel comfortable, confident and beautiful as two people who aren’t used to full-face makeup. As for myself, I love the natural look Monica gave me that looked effortless and perfect for our intimate 10AM backyard ceremony and lasted all the way through dinner and into the evening - all on a hot July day in Florida!

    Excellent Bridal Party Makeup and Hair Experience

    Monica is a genius. She and Ansley did the hair and makeup for my wedding and it couldn't have been a better experience. Monica is incredibly responsive, which made planning and trial runs ahead of the wedding truly seamless. She's also just so talented. All of the women in my group wanted to look natural but improved in a way I thought only a filter could deliver. However, old and young, Monica nailed exactly what everyone requested. I feel so lucky to have found her and her team. They were a big part of making my perfect wedding a reality.

    Monica is Amazing!

    Monica is an amazing talent and so incredibly sweet an amazing to work with. She is super responsive, and my mom and I had the best time hanging out with her and getting to know her during the trial. Everyone in our wedding party was thrilled with their makeup- her products are premium, which is apparent as soon as she opens her makeup case.
    Our hairdresser got Covid and had to cancel the day before our wedding- the hairdresser's secretary said she was looking for a replacement, but we were in a panic. My mom called Monica to see if she knew anyone, and she was already coordinating with the salon that cancelled and reaching out to her contacts in to help find a replacement. Everything worked out for the best, but I was so touched that she was on our team and did that for us. Monica is a great addition to any bridal suite getting-ready time and did looks for my wedding that ranged from natural to fuller coverage depending on what people asked for- she even generously gave us small containers of products to reapply throughout the day. I highly recommend Monica!

    Really great experience

    Monica did my makeup (and my mom's) for my wedding and it was amazing. She was also really friendly and made me feel really comfortable through the whole process. Scheduling with her was really easy too. On the day of she came to my mom's house to do our makeup. I would definitely recommend her to others!!!

    Best make-up artist ever!

    Monica was amazing to work with! She did my makeup for my wedding, and I had gone to see her for a trial 4 months before the big day. The day-of looked EXACTLY like my finished look from my trial. Really amazing! I got so many compliments, and am so happy I got the chance to work with such a lovely and talented make-up artist. If you are looking for someone that's flexible, and does a fantastic job with a natural look (but can glam it up if you want), this is your woman!

    Cumberland Island Makeup Genius!

    We had a destination elopement on an island only accessible by boat in the hot, muggy southern climate-all the right ingredients for makeup to go badly wrong. Monica was incredible through it all. I still looked like me when she was done with my makeup; but at the same time, my face never looked better (and it lasted ALL day outside in the woods!). She was sweet and relaxed and even helped me find other vendors that I needed. I highly, highly recommend her!

    Phenomenal Service!

    Monica did an absolutely stunning job with my wedding make-up! I wanted a classic, pin-up look and Monica was able to deliver exactly that - she was able to make me look and feel elegant for the occasion while still feeling like myself. And what's more is she was incredibly personable and so great to work with! She really put me at ease with both her personality and her knowledge of make-up application. Any questions I had, she was there to answer, address, and tweak anything that was needed to accommodate the look that I wanted. It was a true joy having her to work with on the most important day of my life!

    Perfect Bridal Makeup

    Monica did an amazing job for the makeup for myself (bride), my 5 bridesmaids, and mothers of bride and groom. She was quick to communicate throughout the whole planning process and was flexible as my schedule changed. She arrived promptly on the wedding morning to our private location to get ready at. She made everyone look stunning, and all with a smile (under the safety of a mask, that is!) I was extra impressed with her application of fake lashes- they felt and looked so natural. I would recommend her to any bride in the area!

    Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

    Monica was just perfect! She did beautiful, natural makeup that looked great and special, and yet I still looked like myself. And I didn’t have to think about a thing. She did beautiful, natural makeup that was exactly what I was shopping for, and she was insanely responsive to boot!

    Monica Hayes Makeup is amazing

    I found Monica on a vendor list from my wedding coordinator. I contacted Monica back in May of this year to do a trial run for our engagement pictures at Driftwood Beach, Georgia. She was very quick to respond and came right to my condo at Villas By The Sea Resort. She uses quality airbrush makeup as well as primers, eye shadow, lipstick, etc. Right after the trial run I knew instantly that I wanted her to do my makeup for our wedding this month (09/19/2020). Monica was super helpful and responsive before, during and after our big day. She always stayed on top of things and made sure I had everything I wanted for our big day. She did my makeup and 4 of my bridesmaids makeup the day of our wedding. She took everything I asked her to do and created the exact look I wanted for my big day. She asked each bridesmaid as well what they wanted and made them look as beautiful as myself. Monica is very patient and kind. I absolutely recommend using her for trial run makeup, wedding makeup and all other makeup services she has to offer. She was fantastic and made me feel honestly the most beautiful I’ve ever felt with makeup on. Monica, again, thank you so much again for everything. 😊

    So happy with my wedding makeup!

    Monica made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! She listened to what I wanted and created a classic, natural look. I was amazed at how my makeup stayed in place all day through the Florida heat and still looked great at the end of the night! She has great energy and it was nice to have her around while the bridesmaids were getting ready too. Thank you, Monica!

    Monica is amazing!

    Monica was truly a joy to work with! I earned my makeup to feel natural and she took my dreams and made them a reality! She was definitely my favorite vendor as she was so much fun and easy to work with! I will recommend her to everyone and can’t wait to work with her again!

    Monica is great!

    I really loved my makeup Monica did for my wedding it was natural just the way I wanted it. After our trial we went over some things I wanted to change and on my wedding day everything was perfect. Would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a makeup artist for your wedding or special event.

    Wanting a classic, natural look?

    Want a natural look with a classic finish? Monica is your girl. We had the joy of working with Monica for our wedding. She did the makeup for our girls ranging in ages from 11-26 for our wedding and she did my bridal make-up as well. She did a flawless job and made everyone feel so comfortable with her down to earth ways. She was a delight to communicate with through the planning process (I live out of town), was prompt, conscientious, prepared, and ultimately-really fun. I was nervous about having make-up done for my wedding because I really wanted to “look like me”, but a more “finished” version-next level, yet natural. Monica gets this! It’s her look too! You will not be disappointed with Monica’s services.

    Fantastic!

    Monica was fantastic! She was so professional and talented. She made me feel at ease during a usual stressful time of wedding planning. She really brought out my best features and the makeup stayed put through sweat, wind, and humidity! I would definitely recommend Monica to anyone wanting to look their best on a special day.

    Great experience!!

    Monica Hayes came highly recommended by my best friend's sister who used her for her wedding day makeup. I, too used Monica's services for my wedding day and she did a fantastic job! She was prompt, always on time, listened to my concerns and answered my questions and made me feel beautiful on my wedding day.

    Bridal Makeup

    Monica and her assistant were wonderful to work with for my wedding day! They showed up early to allow plenty of time for set-up and got right to work on the moms. Monica listened to each client, getting their likes and dislikes for color and style, and asked for input from myself (the bride) an other wedding party members. Monica personally did my makeup and made me look STUNNING! I seriously loved my wedding makeup and would suggest Monica to anyone.

    I loved monica. She was so professional and accommodating. She was easy to work with and made me feel very special. Wedding planning isn't always easy but you really appreciate the people who make it as easy as possible. Thank you monica.

    Monica is a joy to work with!

    It was definitely hard planning for the wedding from so far away, but Monica put me at ease and was a breeze to work with throughout! It was a pleasure to have her with us day-of - I was a bundle of nerves, but she had a very chill energy, which helped tremendously.

    I really appreciated that she took my rather vague directions and guidelines, and made me look truly stunning! I don’t wear make-up very often, and I was worried about feeling like I had make-up caked on - which is how I usually feel when I wear it. With what Monica did, though, I didn’t feel like I was wearing make-up at all; I felt very comfortable, and beautiful.

    I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out, and she even finished up with all of us ahead of schedule - which allowed me to get some amazing bridal portraits with my photographer that I otherwise might not have gotten.

    will 100% make you look fab on your big day! 😉

    Monica did my mother and I’s makeup for my wedding. We are both very natural and never wear makeup, so we were a tad scared going in. She really took time during our trial to listen to what we wanted and made both of us look perfect! She was perfectly on time and kept on schedule and fulfilled all of our hopes. Would 100% recommend her for wedding makeup or any occasion! She made me feel and look like a movie star!
