    Loved Personify Bridal

    I first met Arrvada when I was looking for someone to do make up for engagement photos. I loved that she specialized in natural makeup. Then I showed her my dress and asked her thoughts on my hair. When she articulated the exact vision I already had, I knew I had to hire her. Her team was so flexible, easy to work with, accommodating and affordable! Would absolutely use her again for future events.

    Personify Bridal's reply:

    Thank you so much Sara, this means so much to me :) I enjoyed meeting you and sharing some good laughs and conversations.

    Awesome and professional

    So professional. I booked very far in advance, did a trial and from that learned what I didn't like/what didn't work. I had a different artist, Emma, for my engagement photo shoot makeup that i paid for separate from my bridal makeup and she did such an awesome job. Listened to my preferences, looked at my inspiration photos and made me look so beautiful and natural. I was lucky that she also was the artist for my wedding day. She made me and my bridemaids look so beautiful and she made my flower girl feel so special. Highly recommend!

    Make me feel comfortable and beautiful on my special day!

    Arrvada is absolutely wonderful! From start to finish she shared her expertise in beauty and make me feel like a princess! She was funny, genuine, and listened to my wants and needs. She helped me feel less stressed out on the big day! She provided a wonderful touch up kit and I received so many compliments! She enhanced my natural features and my makeup and hair lasted all through the night! She was extremely responsive and truly an expert in her field. I would highly recommend her services and Personify Bridal!

    I felt like a princess!

    I am SO glad I chose personify. I did many makeup trials with others and never felt like "me". I left those trials feeling like maybe I was the problem and just wasn't meant to look the way I imagined on my wedding day. I am so glad I went to one last trial with Personify, they made all my dreams come true!! My wedding makeup was exactly what I dreamed of, I felt so beautiful!!

    Personify Bridal's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Jordan. This means so much to us. We try very hard to make each look we do about our brides. We are so glad we were able to make you feel exactly the way you wanted to on your wedding day. This means the world to us. Thank you!!!!

    Amazing team!

    Arrvada and Aloha were amazing!! I had a few inspiring looks but nothing concrete I wanted to recreate so I have them some freedom by telling them how I wanted to look and trusting them. They didn’t disappoint! I’ve never had my hair or makeup done and I never wear my hair up so was nervous of doing an updo for my wedding. They made me feel beautiful and confident but still look like myself! My makeup and hair held amazing all night, as did all my girls. There was no makeup on anyone’s clothes or dress throughout the whole night despite all the sweat and hugs. Arrvada knew what questions to ask to help guide what products to use and I appreciated that. My sister has super sensitive skin and she worked with her to make sure she wouldn’t react to anything on the day of. They were on time, got us ready exactly in the time they said they would and were flexible when I changed to location of getting ready a week before the wedding. I would certainly book them again!!

    Makeup & hair that lasted forever

    The makeup and hair lasted throughout the day and night and still looked good as when I first got it. Personify Bridal team was amazing with me and my bridesmaids throughout the process and are a fun bunch! They listened throughout and worked with everyone individually.
    Pricing was affordable, which initially was my budget, so it worked out!
    If I was getting married again, I would use this team again, hands down!

    Everything I wished for!

    The Personify Bridal team did such an amazing job with me and my wedding party. Aloha made my hair look exactly as I pictured, and Arrvada’s makeup work made my face more beautiful than I ever imagined. I didn’t even need to touch anything up—my makeup lasted the whole night. They also came to my wedding venue, saving me the stress of an additional trip on my wedding day.

    I’m incredibly pleased and happy that I picked them. I would 100% recommend them to anyone else planning their special day.

    Notes for price below— this was for both hair and makeup for 3 people, plus makeup only for 1 person.

    Loved my hair and makeup!

    I hired Personify Bridal for my bridal hair and makeup as well as my bridesmaids and mother on 9/3/22. MJ and another MU artist did our makeup and Stephenie did our hair. They arrived on time (despite some craziness with parking downtown due to a convention), got everyone done on time, and did a wonderful job. I was extremely happy with my hair and makeup - and it lasted all night long despite the Sacramento heat (and sweat). They also gave me a very sweet bridal box with extras and all my bridesmaids and mom a touch up kit. Everyone was so nice and professional. We have only gotten a few photos back but so far it has turned out great in photos.

    Amazing Experience!

    I hired Personify Bridal for my July 2022 wedding. It was 2 days before my wedding when my previous make up artist cancelled due to COVID. I am so thankful that I hired personify bridal! Arrvada was amazing! Even though we did not have a trial, she knows how to work with clients and make everyone look naturally beautiful on their wedding day. I was nervous about my wedding makeup but I am so happy with her services. My pictures turned out amazing! She even helped smooth my neck and chest area so that it didn't look so red. It looked better than ever! She also helped my bridesmaid with her hair, even though we only purchased makeup. She was kind, helpful, professional, and fun to talk to. I also did not expect so many gifts in the bridal touch up kit. I am so thankful that she unexpectedly worked on her day off to help us out! You will not be disappointed if you are looking for a natural, glowing, bridal look!

    Incredible Service

    MJ the makeup artist and Sara the hairdresser were so person-centered, efficient, kind, and masters of their trade. They made myself and my bridesmaids look like the best versions of ourselves, were so attentive, and helped me navigate my nerves.

    Wonderful artists that accentuate your beauty!!

    Arrvada & her team at Personify Beauty did an amazing job with beautifying myself & my 10 ladies for my wedding day last month! Arrvada was extremely responsive to any questions or concerns that I had throughout the entire planning process. One of the biggest concerns I had when I first was researching for hair & makeup artists was finding a company that could take care of my number of ladies within a certain timeframe. Arrvada assured me immediately that her team would be able to accommodate that need, which was a huge relief! Also a great perk budget-wise, if you book within a certain amount of time prior to your event you can get a nice discount! Otherwise they have very reasonable & affordable prices for their services.
    Personify Beauty has quality artists who listened to each and every vision of hair styles & makeup looks then turned those ideas into reality. Shoutout to Whitney for helping my-indecisive-self try out multiple hair styles at my trial to then doing something immensely different for my wedding day. She absolutely nailed the look & she talked me through each step of the way. Also shoutout to MJ for creating a perfect sultry yet glamorous makeup look. I couldn't be more grateful for these two wonderful ladies for making me feel like a princess on my wedding day!!

    Amazing Wedding Experience

    The Personify Bridal team is amazing. From the first time I contacted Arrvada just to get information, to the day of my wedding, everything was professional and personal. I loved being able to meet with Arrvada for my trial a few months prior to my big day. She incorporated what I wanted with her expertise and created the perfect look! She answered all questions I had and always responded quickly. The whole team that worked with my family for the wedding was also amazing. All of the work that was done was fantasic and everyone felt so beautiful! I highly recommend Personify Bridal to anyone looking for a personalized experience with the highest quality!

    Personify Bridal was the Right Choice

    Personify Bridal was the right choice for me and my girls! Our hair and makeup were perfect for the ceremony and lasted well into the next day. The day-of was seemless, with both Tosh (our Make-up Artist) and Stephenie (our Hair Stylist) arrived early despite hitting unexpected traffic and ready to make us beautiful! I appreciated all of their suggestions - much needed for someone like myself who rarely wears makeup. In addition - scheduling and communication with Arrvada was easy, professional, and quick to respond. Would definately recommend to anyone looking for hair and makeup!

    Thank you so much! I’m so happy we could make your day of run smooth! We loved being there for you.

    Personify Bride

    I am so thankful for choosing this vendor to help me look wonderful on my wedding day! I was stressing so much dyring that time cause my make up artist cancelled on me less a week before my wedding and I was crushed. Personofiy Bride has great reviews about their ability to accomodate last minute request. My prayers were answerd when they accomodated my request to book for a make up trial ( which i never even had nor scheduled successfully with my ohter vendor) a few days before the big day! Aloha - my make up and hair artist, was the sweetest, funniest and most creative person ever! She pacified all anxieties i has for the upcoming big day. On the day itself, she made adjustments to our style guide and surprised me with a hair do that i loved loved so much! I felt so. Beautiful that day and Aloha and Ranjit (i hope i got the name right) finished up additional 5 ladies in my party on time! Everyone was awed and happy with their work! Aloha is the most wonderful person you woild meet, and i highly recommend this vendor if you are looking for great people with realllt good talents.

    Wonderful service by wonderful people

    I found Arrvada and crew on Instagram and had to reach out to her. As a 36 year old bride I wanted to look like me, just the best version of me. I was coming from cross country for my wedding so Arrvada was able to accommodate my trial 5 months prior to my wedding. Communication was amazing and worked with my 3 hour time difference. When there was a staffing change prior to my wedding Arrvada offered me a free makeup trial to work with her instead of the original makeup artist which just shows her level of professionalism. Personify Bridal did my whole bridal party and both moms. They showed up
    On time and got right to work. All the girls were thrilled with the way they looked and it was all so affordable I was able to treat all the girls. Arrvada and crew were a blast to get ready with on my wedding day. I’m so glad I found them!

It was the best experience i could have ever wished for and i will be forever grateful to the team for making me feel so beautiful for my special day.

    Stop Looking! This is perfection!

    First of all - I'm a pretty picky person. Second of all - I don't want to have to "worry" about a vendor. Personify Bridal is perfection. I was instantly blown away during my trial run when Arrvada asked me probably no less than 30 questions about me, myself and my day. And I remember sitting in the chair thinking - this woman is brilliant. All the things you don't think about. "What is your current makeup style" "How do you envision your wedding" "Do you sweat and it beads on top of your lip" - every single question she asked had a purpose, and it was brilliant. I should say that my girls are also picky. :) And they couldn't stop raving about the professionalism and their experience with Arrvada and team. They were prompt - kept calling out time - and ran like an insanely well-oiled machine. Our makeup did not budge, smudge, run..... through MANY tears. And the icing on the cake was that I felt beautiful, still myself, just a more beautiful version :) Arrvada - I'm going to need some lessons - seriously.

    HIRE THIS TEAM!

    Oh Lord, you’re making me cry. I’ve never been more humbled or honored by someone. Thank you so so much! I loved every moment we got to spend with you and your ladies. I can’t wait to see you again!

    BEST EVER ! Friendly & Responsive

    Arrvada and Aloha were the best while they were getting our (my sister & I) make up & hair ready. I absolutely loved the way my sisters and I hair and make up came out, and I trusted the pictures and everyone’s review on this business!

    If you’re looking for a make up artist for your event, Personify Bridal is definitely the business to hire.

    Arrvada stays in connection with you leading to the day. They definitely made a great start to my wedding day and made all my other vendors questionable lol. The price I paid for both me and my sister included our make up and hair & it was a very reasonable price.

    Make up stayed on all day from 8am - 11pm ! It was amazingggg. Arrvada knows what she’s doing forsure ! Aloha is super friendly & knows how to keep conversation going. We had a super early start (6am), and her energy was so positive and sweet. My hair looked amazing as well and she really made it look like the pictures I sent without extensions.

    Price below includes my tip for them

    Best. Ever.

    Words cannot describe how absolutely beautiful these ladies made me feel! I had Aloha style my hair and Arrvada did my makeup. I was absolutely speechless with the results and felt like a true princess. These girls are not only talented but they are so much fun!! They kept me laughing and smiling the whole time we were glamming up. Could not have been more happy. Everything went perfect, from trial run to day of. They really take the time to listen and understand your vision and make sure you are comfortable with everything. My hair and makeup lasted throughout the entire night. These ladies are amazing!! Thank you!!

    Personify Bridal's reply:

    100% recommend!

    Arrvada and her team did an amazing job! I scheduled a hair and makeup trial a few months before my wedding, and they were very professional and attentive to what I wanted done. On the day of the wedding, Personify Bridal did hair and makeup for a total of 7 people (myself, my bridal party, and my mom), and everything turned out beautiful! They were prompt, efficient, and very friendly, which made the whole getting ready process all the more enjoyable. They were even able to accommodate my bridesman's male contouring and hairstyling! The hair and makeup lasted through the entire wedding ceremony and reception. Throughout the whole process, Arrvada was very responsive via email or text. Would recommend for anyone's hair and makeup needs!

    Hi Diana, thank you so much for your kind words. We enjoyed spending the day with you and being a part of your special moment. Thank you so much for sharing that with us. And your mother was adorable :)

    Everything was perfect!

    Arrvada and her team at Personify Bridal did hair and makeup for my May 2021 wedding at Park Winters. The team was super punctual, arriving early to get set up and getting all 5 of us done within 3 hours. Everyone was very happy with both hair and makeup. Even in the 100+ degree heat, everything stayed perfect for the entire night! They had even left a touch-up kit that didn’t even get used. In addition to their great work, it was super fun to get ready with them. Such delightful personalities - it was like getting ready with old friends. Thank you, Arrvada and team!

    Our Fairy Godmothers!

    Arrvada and the Personify Bridal team were a DREAM! 10s across the board! Arrvada was incredibly kind and charismatic and truly listened to everything we could want. My wife and I were unsure of how to describe the exact look we wanted but Arrvada put it into words and practice and made everything magical! Aloha made us feel gorgeous and elegant and did AMAZING work when we were unsure of what we could do. Her and her team were able to accommodate our large bridal party sizes without making us feel guilty and made all of us comfortable and relaxed before the wedding. Thank all of you again!!

    Beautiful Hair and Make-up!

    Aarvada is an amazing hair and make-up artist! After rescheduling due to COVID/ quarantine, this was the 3rd time I was making up for our original wedding date. Aarvada communicates so well, and we had a blast getting my hair and make-up down for my wedding! We had a tiny back yard wedding, and she was gracious enough to come over to our house. She was on time, professional, fun, and did an amazing job on my hair and make-up! I'm going to definitely hire Aarvada again for any of my professional hair and make-up needs!!!

    Personify Bridal's reply:

    Thank you so much for all the kind words Annie. I had such a great time being there for you. You made me feel very welcome and very safe. You and your husband were so gracious and fun! Can't wait to see you again!

    WOW! Incredible Bridal Look!

    WOW! I cannot say enough great things about this vendor. They did a fantastic job on the hair and makeup, and gave me a better bridal look than I could have imagined!

    Getting married during the pandemic and CA fires left a lot of uncertainty around our wedding day. Personify Bridal was very understanding of all the changes and did whatever they could to make our day as easy as possible.

    Thank you again! I would absolutely recommend this company without thinking twice.

    Great experience

    I hired Personify for my bridal hair and makeup. They also did hair and makeup for my maid of honor and my pre-teen flower girl, and makeup for mother of the bride. It was a last minute booking and they were able to accommodate my schedule and even arrange a trial run within a short window. The whole team was so friendly and accommodating. The hair and makeup was great, the communication, everything. I highly recommend this great group of gals.

    Personify Bridal did such an amazing job! They really cared about me, the bride, and how I looked and made me feel like a queen. They listened and checked-in on me with my hair and makeup. Also, the girls were so personable and enjoyable to be around too! It is like you are hanging out with your friends. I would highly recommend using them. They are amazing at what they do.

    Flawless makeup + hair during covid!

    We were getting married during covid, and I am so happy I went with Arrvada + team. Everyone wore masks and assured me of the ways they sanitized their kits. I didn't end up liking the initial hairstyle and Stephanie was so sweet to redo it in a way I loved. Tosh did an amazing job! I jumped into the pool in my wedding dress and my makeup looked flawless when I got out of the pool! I'm very budget conscious. Personify Bridal struck the right balance between being professional and trustworthy (Arrvada sent over a contract, which protects both parties) and reasonable pricing.

    Thank you so much Tiffany! It was such a pleasure being a part of your special day. Thank you so much for choosing Personify Bridal

    Gorgeous Yet Still Me!

    Personify Bridal were the perfect fit for my wedding day. They were flexible when I added one more bridesmaid 2 months before and when we could't do a trial run because I live full time in another country. They also were willing to come earlier so that me and the 4 girls would be done by the correct time. (We were even done early!) They were professional but also really fun to be around while we were all getting ready! The reason I hired Personify Bridal was because they specialised in natural looks and that is exactly what was delivered. They enhanced my look and made me feel gorgeous yet still like myself. I couldn't have asked for a better group. (They were so good, even some of my bridesmaid wanted their information because they did such a stellar job with every single one of us!)

    Personify Bridal's reply:

    Thank you so much! It means so much that we were able to make you feel gorgeous and most importantly to still be able to see you. It was our greatest pleasure being able to be there for you, to share in this special moment. Thank you SO MUCH for allowing Personify Bridal to be there for you.

    Thanks for sending Whitney,

    I booked less than 2 weeks ahead and it was just for me. I was nervous about the appointment. But no worries. Whitney showed up at my hotel about 10 minutes early. Awesomely friendly and very attentive to what I wanted. She totally understood what I wanted and she did a great job. At 105 the heat was crazy and as much as i sweat the hair and makeup held up until the end of the night. Thank you Whitney. I will definitily call you again.

    Arrvada was amazing to work with for my wedding day. I appreciated that she listened to what I wanted and when I didn't know what I wanted, asked all the right questions to get me there. And the results were beautiful! She was also incredibly accommodating when I wanted to add makeup for my mom as well. She made us both feel so stunning.

    Great hair and makeup and emotional support

    Arvada made me feel really comfortable from the beginning. She listened to what I had in mind, and offered some ideas, but never did things her way without complete consent. This went for both my trial run and day of. On the day of, she made sure she was a bit early, and simply stayed in the lobby of my venue until I was ready. Getting normal bridal jitters, she helped calm me down. I changed my mind on how I wanted my eyeliner done, and she had no problem going with the flow. I have really oily skin, but was never shiny and my makup stayed in place all night! She even even gave me pointers on how to take care of my skin and hair weeks before the wedding. She didn't just make me feel like I was getting my makeup and hair done. She made me feel like she was a friend who really wanted to be there for me. Thank you Arvada!

    Wonderful!

    I hired Personify Bridal to do the hair and makeup for my bridal party for my June 10 wedding. I was very impressed with the team's timeliness, courtesy, and overall professionalism. I did not have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding. Prior to the wedding day, I communicated with Arrvada who was very organized and responsive to all my questions (for example, she solicited input on the styles my bridesmaids and relatives were looking for). She was flexible with changes as well. At the end of the day, everyone looked amazing and I would highly recommend Personify Bridal to future brides and their wedding party.

    Arrvada and Tash were amazing throughout the process. Arrvada was very communicative, and was able to do a "virtual trial" with me, asking tons of great questions in order to find out what we were looking for. Everyone was SUPER happy with their hair and makeup, and we also had a great time with them the morning of the wedding. I decided to switch what I wanted last minute and Arrvada was very flexible and was able to work with me to get exactly what I wanted. They also had someone not show up that day, but they were still able to get us all done in time. My hair and makeup looked perfect all night and I have ZERO regrets about working with them. Thank you so much!!

    I was looking for low-key, natural wedding makeup that would match my low-key, wedding style. Arrvada at Personify Bridal delivered and then some! During our trial she worked with my vague ideas and the fact that I know nothing about makeup or hair to put together a look that I loved! On the day of my wedding Arrvada and her team arrived early and didn't scorn me for being late and did a fantastic job working with my bridal party and family as we got organized on a hectic day. They finished up within the suggested timeline, even with our lateness and disorganization, and we all looked fabulous! I can't recommend Personify Bridal strongly enough! (Pics are from the trial, since I was too disorganized on wedding day to get any!)

    Arvada and her team were absolutely wonderful. She did an amazing job for me, my girls and my mom (who is extremely picky with her makeup!!) She was so personal and professional and made everything run smoothly, everything from the beginning with our trial, to the day of. Additionally, the updo and makeup lasted the ENTIRE day, full of dancing, jumping around, tears of joy, everything! The price was very reasonable, especially for the quality of service she provides. Thank you Arvada!

    Arvada and her team did an incredible job! The Bride had no real idea of what she wanted going in and she worked with her to come up with a look that was simply stunning! She and her bridesmaids looked beautiful, and they even took care of the wedding coordinator! They were professional, on time and very flexible with who was getting what done on the day of. She took the time to talk with the bride and really get to know her, so that her make-up and hair reflected who she was rather than just doing something “pretty”. The prices were reasonable and completely in-line for the area. If you hire her to do your hair and make-up for your wedding, you will NOT be disappointed!!

    Words cannot describe how awesome Alli Rose is!!! Not only did she take me for bridal hair and makeup with only 9 days notice before my wedding, but she made me look absolutely stunning on my wedding day! I have never felt more beautiful in my life! She made sure I was comfortable during the makeup trial and that I always felt like myself when applying makeup. She was very flexible with what I wanted and brought ideas when I wasn’t sure. Although my original stylist cancelled on me so close to my wedding, it was the best thing that could have happened to me! My hair and makeup lasted all day during an outdoor wedding and reception. It was an amazing feeling to look as beautiful as I felt on the inside on my wedding day.

    Arvada is the absolute BEST. Not only did my and my bridesmaids hair/makeup look amazing, but her and her team were able to fit in a bunch of people that decided on the day of that they too wanted hair or makeup done. We were all ready in plenty of time for pictures. She made sure we had all gotten something to eat and stayed hydrated. She just did lots of little things to go the "extra step" to make sure everything was perfect. And to top it all off, Arvada is just an all over amazing person! She's professional yet fun. And she stole my heart when she told me how she volunteered at animal shelters. <3 Amazing lady and team. Thank you all!

    Arrvada was amazing! She fit me in at the very last minute when my previous lady had an emergency and cancelled 1 week away from my wedding. She squeezed me in for a trial and was available for my wedding day. She was so thorough during my trial (she took notes of everything) and did my makeup exactly as I wanted. She was very professional and very easy to work with. My makeup looked beautiful. You can tell she has a lot of experience in this business. On my wedding day arrived early to my wedding location and I just sat back and enjoyed her doing my makeup flawlessly. I would use her again for another event or recommend her in a heartbeat.

    I found this vendor through my internet search. Arrvada was amazing. Everyone said I looked beautiful on my wedding day. She's very friendly and outgoing. I wish I could have her do my makeup everyday! The trial run was affordable and it made me feel confident that I'll look great on my wedding day. Arrvada was done in no time and I looked and felt beautiful on my big day.

    I met with Arrvada for my trial run before my Bridal Shower. She was super nice and did me up all up- hair and makeup. I arrived at my Shower and had tons of compliments. However I am a tomboy and was uncomfortable the entire time. It just wasn't me! I went home, left on some of the makeup and redid it how I usually do my makeup. I sent her a lengthy email, with pictures of her makeup, vs what I felt comfortable in. I was very nervous sending it because I didn't want to tell a professional what to do! She promptly responded, saying that she was happy hearing what I thought, asked questions, and pretty much put me at ease. That I wouldn't feel like a mask, that I would feel like myself, only enhanced on my wedding day.
    On the day of, she arrived on time with a back up girl to do the other girl's hair. They were so much fun! We were playing music and joking as they did all our hair and Arrvada did my makeup. Arrvada included me in the entire process of the makeup. She explained why she was or wasn't doing certain things, she asked my opinion, and even used my own foundation, bronzer and eyeshadow. When she was finished I felt so comfortable, I couldn't feel the makeup at all, I felt so pretty and like myself.

    I am so happy with the work that Arrvada did, and would definitely recommend her for Bridal Hair and Makeup. Thank you, Arrvada!

    Arrvada was wonderful! I hired her and her team for both hair and makeup for myself, my six bridesmaids, and my mother and MIL. Everyone was very happy with the way their makeup and hair turned out and our pictures were lovely! Arrvada originally was not going to be able to provide service, personally, on the day of my wedding and connected me with a great makeup artist. In the end, she was able to make the wedding day and I was able to do a hair trial with her for the extensions I planned to use. She gave great advice, was very flexible and had a great attitude. Having her and her team with us the morning of my wedding relieved a LOT of my stress and helped make everything run smoothly. They showed up on time and ready to go and we were able to get everyone done with only a little bit of overlap when the photographers arrived. I would recommend her and her team to anyone!

    They were flexible with me when I needed to change the date of my trial-run last minute. They were by far the most affordable company I could find, and I was really pleased with the outcome. I gave some feedback after my trial-run, and I was impressed that on the day of my wedding she was prepared and ready to go with these changes. The fact that they also have a team if your bridal party is getting makeup done too is outstanding, it saved so much time, which is crucial on an already long day.

    I first met Arrvada at my hair and make-up trial. She was very patient and took her time explaining what she recommended for me based on photos I had brought with me.

    The day of the wedding, she and her team arrived on time and well equipped to handle our group of seven. Despite a few members of the wedding party arriving late, everyone’s hair and make-up were finished on time and Arrvada stayed until I got into my dress in case I needed any touch ups.

    I would highly recommend VIP CAT. In all, the team was very professional and the wedding party came out looking great!

    Arrvada and her team are amazing!!! I highly recommend her to any bride looking for someone talented yet affordable. She was very flexible and accommodated my indecisiveness. I changed my look several times and Arrvada was very patient with me. The day of my wedding, Arrvada and her team showed up on time and were ready to work their magic on us! They listened to what each one us liked and disliked and in the end everyone loved their look. They were real knowledgeable in today's makeup/hair trends and used quality products. Our makeup and hair lasted all day as promised by Arrvada and her team and photographed well. Arrvada was great and I recommend her to everyone!

    Great Great Great! I looked beautiful on my day and so did my bridesmaids. Arvada was professional and ON TIME. Like I could set my watch to her promptness! She was flexible and worked with me on what I like and wanted for my day. What I loved, that no other artist really did, is that she sat with me and documented all sorts of information about my everyday makeup, what I like and don't like, what I'd be open to, and really got a sense of who I was. The fact that she nailed it on the head after that is not surprising! She even participated in a little research the maid of honor was conducting on the make up industry!!!! I and my bridesmaids are black with differing skin tones amongst us and she did a great job bringing out our natural beauty!

    So glad I worked with her!

    Arrvada and her team did my hair and makeup for my wedding as well my bridesmaids and my Mothers's hair. Arrvada really listened to how I wanted my hair and makeup while making very helpful suggestions. I looked so gorgeous on my wedding day and I owe it to her for doing such an Amazing job! My hair was perfect! My makeup perfect! My fake eyelashes didn't come off until the next night I showered. My Bridesmaids hair was done just the way I wanted and they looked so beautiful too! My Mothers's hair turned out great and she loved it. I highly recommend Arrvada for wedding day hair and makeup or any special occasion. She is great! You will not be disappointed!

    My wedding was almost a year ago now, and looking back on my pictures and video, I never felt more beautiful in my life then I did on that day.That was for two reasons, I was marrying the love of my life, and I had never felt so confident with the way I looked. I have never been a person to look in the mirror and be happy with my reflection unfortunately. However on that day, I took a look in the mirror after she was done and I was in awe. She made me feel gorgeous. I was excited for the first time to have people stare at me as I walked down the aisle. Not only did I feel that way but my bridesmaids felt that way. Anyone can do your hair and make up, but it takes an artist and someone who truly listens to what you are envisioning to create a look to make you feel the most beautiful you have ever felt. I couldn't have asked for more. I would highly recommend.

    Personify Bridal's reply:

    Hi Christina, I am so humbled that you felt so happy after V.I.P.-CAT Bride did your hair and makeup. It was a pleasure to be there for you and thank you so much for your kind words.

    Arrvada and her staff were so friendly, talented, and efficient on the day of my wedding. They easily helped me, my four bridesmaids, and my mom achieve the hair and makeup looks we all wanted. They made the experience fun and stress-free and a wonderful part of the day to remember. At the trial before the wedding, Arrvada listened to all of my ideas and helped me incorporate them in the most effective way. She is incredibly knowledgeable about what she does and I would highly recommend her services to anyone!

    She did a great job!! Everyone loved my makeup and hair. She was their on time and did everything she said she would. She even brought a foldable table and chairs. Since where I was getting ready was a vacant home with little furniture. I'm so glad I decided to choose. And her assistant did a great job on my moms hair and makeup. Her prices were great too!!! I'm so glad I choosed her.

She traveled to san Francisco for my wedding that was nice too with her team. thank you so much for all your hard work my wedding was perfect and everything looked awesome!! :)

    I am very happy with the service we received. She was very helpful with tips of what to do leading up to the wedding, and kept the mood light and fun while she was there. My wedding was outside, and my makeup lasted through heat, tears, and lot of cake in my face ;)

    I love this company. The hair and makeup team I had on my wedding day was super fun and friendly, and they arrived right at the appointed time to our pre-wedding location. Communication was wonderful!! I had had a dry run weeks before, and I gave some feedback about that.... the VIP-CAT people totally listened and made all the adjustments I asked for, rather than pushing a certain way of doing things (or copping an attitude, or whatever). Our whole wedding party was listened to and things were modified accordingly, on the fly. And, perhaps most importantly, we were all finished within the allotted time!! We all loved our looks and received many, many compliments throughout the day. The photos look great too -- our looks were enhanced, not overdone, which is exactly what I wanted. Thank you VIP-CAT!

    I was lucky enough to meet Arvada and her team when my girlfriend got married in June of 2011. I was impressed by her teams work and the way they added to the fun of the day without being intrusive. When it was my turn to walk down the aisle, VIP-CAT was a no brainer. Being that I was getting married in Tahoe, I was a bit concerned they wouldn’t be able to make the trek… But they did and I am so thankful.

    The team arrived on time and ready to work! With a total of 13 people to beautify, Arvada brought a large enough team to accommodate our group. She effectively managed faces and hair being done by her dynamic team so no stylist/artist sat with an empty chair. Her team really listened to what everyone wanted and in an instance where something needed to be adjusted or fixed; they were extremely gracious and willing to do so. They work with great products and the extensive lashes to choose from add a nice touch to the package.

    To sum things up… during a time that can be stressful, VIP-CAT will make the hair and make-up portion of your day stress free, seamless and fun. Thank you Arvada and team for all you did to make our day beautiful!

    Arrvada and her team were awesome. They were on time and had fun with my whole wedding party. When I started to get nervous, she calmed me down. I received so many compliments about my hair and makeup. She listened to what I wanted and I looked better than I could have imagined. The most important thing is it lasted all day! I would highly recommend VIP-Cat Bridal

    I loved Jennifer and her team from image provocateur! They did such an amazing job on all my bridesmaids and other special guests! All the women walked away looking BEAUTIFUl and were so happy with what the team had done to them. Jennifer and her team knew how to make each woman feel comfortable and give them exactly what they wanted, they never went over the top and were always professional! I also must commend them for having patience for my group of girls there were about 20 of us getting beautified by them and they were always so tentative and friendly.

    I highly recommend them for any bride to be! You surly wont be disappointed! so hurry book your date NOW!

    Edith was wonderful!!! She did the hair and makeup for both myself (the bride) and both of my bridesmaids. She was incredibly prompt and professional at all times. The night before the wedding she sent a text message just to let me know she would see us all in the morning and that it was going to be a wonderful day. Things such as that little message let me know that Edith truly cared about me and my day. Edith arrived at the ceremony location on time and we all looked amazing when she was finished. I could not have picked another hair and make up artist who would have made us all look more beautiful, been more kind and helpful, or helped to put my semi-stressed out mind at more ease.

    I heard of Image Provocateur through the internet. I wasn't sure what to expect, but they had good reviews. I went to my trial run and was extremely pleased by the professionalism, the courtesy and the skill I recieved. The salon is a cute little place, little brick building from the outside, high class boutique on the inside. The staff was friendly, very professional and they were fabulous with my hair and makeup. I immediately booked the moment we were done and I think it was the best decision I could have made. The day of my wedding arrived and they showed up, a team of black dressed stylists and made me and my bridal party look like divas! If you haven't chosen your makeup yet, I urge you to hire these guys, they will make you look so amazing!

    Arrvada and her team were absolutely amazing and made every girl in my multicultural bridal party look flawless! They were all super professional but really fun and personable. I'm so happy I chose her for my wedding hair and make up, she even make sure I ate that afternoon and even had one of my bridesmaids get me food. :) Arrvada's prices were by far the most cost friendly compared to the majority of other hair and make up artist in the area.

    Arrvada did an incredible job with my make up and hair. She was very attentive and listened to what I wanted. I had a large bridal party and she brought four other artists/hair stylists. Everyone was efficient and we were ready with time to spare. My only gripe was that one of her assistants was not as competent as the others (i.e. her make up application looked cakey).

    Image Provocateur provided hair and make-up for myself, 5 bridesmaids, and 2 mothers. The stylists arrived on time and ready to get started. They did a fantastic job and everyone was extremely pleased with the results. The make-up with stood my outdoor ceremony in 101 degree weather! My only complaint was they changed the time of my appointment the day before the wedding (from 10 a.m to 8 a.m.) I understand they had multiple weddings that day but it did cause a bit of frantic last minute planning.

    A great team!

    Personify bridal was really great to work with! They were mostly understanding about how I wanted my makeup done that day and walked me through why my ideas weren't going to be the best for photos but indulged me anyways. Both hair and makeup were lovely to work with!

    My hair began to come out before the reception which was disappointing. Everything else was so wonderful, all the girls who came to help did an amazing job making my gorgeous bridesmaids flawless. They helped make the day not stressful...and even shared some of the videos and photos that they took during the morning.

    Personify Bridal's reply:

    Thank you so much Ariana for your honest review. I am so sorry that your hair did not last like it should have the whole day and I appreciate you sharing that with me so that we can make sure it doesn't happen again.

    Also, how could we not share those videos with that little cutie pie working the camera!!!!

    Image Provocateur was awesome! I chose them for my wedding day (for me and the girls). Jen transformed my face into something out of a magazine, (not a car magazine) which I don't see often because my job requires little to no makeup. I had a little freak out about my hair, which Jen assured me I wasn't being "that bride". But once I just let her know what my vision was, Jen made it happen with my hair too and she didn't make me feel guilty for being a bit picky. After all, it was my wedding day. I knew if I didn't just communicate with her that I'd regret it. She listened to my requests and took control, and I loved the result! Jen and her crew also made my girls look SO awesome and hot! I will use them again in the future, maybe even just for fun on a girls day out! Jen and her crew were so professional, came to my location, and brought all the tools they needed, and more. They came in, conquered, and set us off into the night. If you aren't sure, do a trial run with one of the artists and see what you think. I was convinced at my trial run and totally pleased on wedding day!

    Arrvada and team were fantastic. I had 4 bridesmaids, myself and 2 moms getting hair & make-up. Arrvada and her team came right to where we were staying and quickly got to work on everyone. We started at 10 AM and we were done by 2 PM. The bridesmaids and moms were happy with their hair & make-up. As the bride, I too was happy with my hair. It stayed up all night long, even though I was getting down on the dance floor. My make-up was perfect - it was done exactly how I wanted, to make me look natural. Arrvada had taken notes from our trial run and made sure that she met my expectations. She was always available to answer questions. Her and her team took time to make sure that each of us were happy with how things turned out or to tweak slightly as needed to get things perfect. Thank you Arrvada for enhancing my beauty on my wedding day.

    I had my trial with Amiee and I loved the final look, everything was perfect from the contour to the shaping of my eyebrows. However, the day of the wedding, I did not have the same feeling when the makeup was all completed. My eyebrows were filled in but not shaped like before and my face was not contoured the same. We were running short on time so I do not have it removed and redone. She was great and very professional but I was disappointed in the way the final look came out, especially my eyebrows and that is the first thing I noticed in all the pictures.

    Great experience. Arrvada (owner) was great! She brought a great team, but one team member seemed to be high strung and didn't leave a good taste with some of my girls. Overall, great service! I would recommend to know what you want when you request service and while getting your service, and stick to your guns.

    Was unhappy of how I was talked to and didn't like the aggressive nature of the artist. I felt like she didn't listen well to what I wanted and was rude.

    This vendor gets a mixed review because I worked with them twice. The first time I worked with them, my photographer booked for me for a pre-wedding shoot. They do both hair and makeup. The artist was late, but I think there was a miscommunication. My photographs turned out beautiful and I really enjoyed my experience.

    I decided to book this vendor for my wedding day based on my prior experience. It was difficult to get a hold of the people so I both left a voicemail and emailed them. A girl called and booked with her for a appointment at my parents' house.

    The same girl called me back two days later (eventhough I sent the email/called on the same morning/afternoon) and hardly remembered talking to me before even though we had discussed my prior shoot during the first conversation. I booked during the first conversation for 12:30pm, but after jogging her memory, she asked if she could reschedule me for 1:30pm instead. No big deal.

    I was also a bit disappointed because they charge $175 for bridal hair & makeup, $75 for a trial run, and advertise a $25 discount if you book on the trial run day. I was hoping since the same stylist did my hair & makeup before I would get the discount, but that didn't happen. $175 is A LOT of money for me.

    About a week after booking, the girl called me back and left a message asking if she could move my appointment to 9:30am because she has a bigger party that would like to be done at 1:30pm. I thought this was incredibly unprofessional. I truly believe that no matter how much a client spends (i.e. bride only or w/ 8 bridesmaids), they should be treated with the same courtesy. I called back and said I did not wish to keep my appointment. The gal and I played phone tag a few times with her leaving messages apologizing, offering alternative times, and even offering another stylist. I only went with this company because I like the girl that did my hair the first time. I eventually just gave up calling her back since we couldn't connect and had never reached an agreement.

    Two days before my wedding (over a month since last contact) someone called to confirm I would come to the salon at 9:30am for my appointment. Weird. I called back and left a message... of course a message...

    The work is really beautiful, so if money is no object, you have a large party, and you're patient then I'd recommend this vendor. My photographer loves them so I guess that's good advertising.
