    Nancy - 11.2.19

    Shelly is an amazing makeup artist and a true professional. Both of my daughters used her for their weddings. From the first wedding to the second, she made the entire wedding party look stunning. She dealt with different skin types to a bridesmaid that rarely wore makeup. In the end, we all looked beautiful. Plus, she’s extremely kind hearted and quite fun to have around while you’re getting ready. Shelly goes above and beyond and even provides a lot of advice on cosmetics that I still use today. Do not hesitate to book her or you will truly lose out on a skilled artist and an extremely nice person that truly cares about your special day.

    Shelly did an amazing job. She made my girls and I look gorgeous. I was blown away by wonderful job she did. One of my bridesmaids doesn't ever wear makeup, but Shelly made her comfortable and she looked beautiful. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing makeup artist.

    NEO ladies - do not wait to book Shelly for your make up. She was AMAZING. She not only did my look for the day, but my bridesmaids and MOB and MOG. She was so much fun to work with and we all LOVED how we looked. Plus, after finishing before 11 in the AM, we all still looked amazing at MIDNIGHT.

    Book her. You won't regret it.

    I cannot say enough great things about Shelly. My makeup was AMAZING and stayed on throughout the entire night's sweat and tears. I had 7 girls total getting their makeup done and a few girls that were planning to do their own. After seeing Shelly's work on the first few ladies, the girls who initially wanted to do their own makeup ended up begging to add on last minute! Shelly was very welcoming with these requests and squeezed them in as fast as possible before the limo arrived. She worked for 5 hours straight and wouldn't take a break until everyone looked flawless! She was wonderful, and would highly recommend her for any event and any style.

    Shelly was extremely professional and wonderful to work with. My bridesmaids are still raving about their make up from my wedding day. She was very knowledgeable during the trial run and everything was flawless on my wedding day and I couldn't be happier! I would highly recommend Shelly for your next event!

    Shelly was amazing! She is a complete professional and does an impeccable job. For events I usually wear a more dramatic look; however, for my wedding I wanted to highlight a more natural look. Shelly not only created an amazing look for me, but also for my Mom and the rest of my bridal party. She used unbelievable products, resulting in a long-lasting, flawless look. I can't tell you how many compliments we received. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!

    You will not regret booking Shelly Theiling for your wedding day. From the very beginning she was professional, friendly and responded quickly to all my emails and questions. From our practice round(09/08/12) to the wedding day(10/27/12) she made me feel so comfortable. Shelly, also did the makeup for my bridesmaids who all had very different skin complexions and skin colors and that did not faze her at all. She made us all feel and look so beautiful! She is truly a talented women with a kind heart. No matter if it is for a wedding or big event, no matter if you have fair complexion or a darker complexion, Shelly is who you should book as your makeup artist. You will not regret it!!!!

    Shelly was amazing!!! She was very organized and on top of everything, she responded almost immediately to all of my questions and was very easty to work with. I had five people get their make-up done and she made all of us look stunning!! She really made each one of us look beautiful but different so we all didn't look cloned. She was a pleasure to work with and had a great personality!! I have recommeneded her to anyone who is getting married that I know. One of the best decisions I made for my wedding was having Shelly do our make-up!!

    Shelly literally saved the day! My make-up artist cancelled 8 days before my wedding. This was doubly hard as I live in LA and my wedding was in Ohio! Shelly made herself available at the last moment, drove 50 minutes to get to my wedding site, did beautiful make-up on my bridesmaids and me, and was super kind and professional. I am grateful to her! I would recommend her to anyone that needs professional make-up without reservation! And again, she did a fantastic job! We all looked amazing!

    Shelly came to my house before my daughter's wedding and did a wonderful job. It was a pleasure to work with her, and she gave lots of advice on cosmetics that I will continue to use in the future.

    Shelly did an awesome job for my Daughter's wedding in June. She took the time with each girl including myself, the mother of the bride, to listen to what eash of us would like but also add constructive ideas. Her relaxed persona helped everyone's anxiety throughout the morning. It was a pleasure to work with her and I think the highest compliment for her were the beautiful comments from friendly and friends. I wish I could keep her in my pocket and have her do my makeup on a daily basis. She made me feel amazing....

    Shelly was AMAZING on our wedding day. She traveled over an hour to come down to Akron, OH to do our makeup and was a wonderful person to be around. Not only is she a talented artist, but a great person as well. I highly reccomend Shelly. She is prompt, kind, and provides a great makeup service for weddings. My makeup looked exactly as I wanted! Kudos to Shelly :)

    Shelly does amazing work. Not only is she flexible and easy to work with, but she helps everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. In the days leading up to my wedding, Shelly willingly met me at a local MAC store for my trial wedding makeup and patiently tried different ideas and looks until we came up with a great combination that would look best on me. I was thankful that Shelly traveled to a downtown Cleveland hotel for me and set up her makeup in a suite where my bridesmaids and I got ready in on wedding day. Shelly did my wedding makeup, as well as all of my bridesmaids? makeup. Although we were pressed for time, Shelly figured out a way to manage her time to make each girl look amazing and feel beautiful. What I loved about the way Shelly did our makeup was that everyone?s makeup was different and unique, making each girl look her best. It seemed like Shelly really paid attention to each girl, and wanted to enhance their best features. Shelly is a true artist and has a passion for what she does. I cannot thank Shelly enough for making us all look gorgeous and creating such a fun memory for us all to look back on! I only wish I had more events to go to, so that I could have Shelly do my makeup more often. But, when I do, Shelly will definitely be the first person I call!

    They did an amazing job with my hair and makeup for my engagement photos. Unfortunately she was already booked to do my hair and makeup for the wedding. Karen did a wonderful job as well. I would highly recommend them.

    Shelly was referred to me by a makeup artist who cancelled on me 4 days before my wedding. She swooped right in and saved the day, to say the least. Shelly was flexible with her schedule and was able to even fit in a trial with so few days left before my wedding day. She listened to my ideas on the look I wanted and used her expertise and skill to make me look like a glamorous version of my natural self. I couldn't have been happier during the trial or on the wedding day itself. I felt beautiful and comfortable in my own skin and I owe it partially to Shelly. Shelly is dependable, skillful and fun to work with!

    Shelly was wonderful! She did my makeup for my wedding day and did an even more beautiful job than she did on my trial run! Everyone told me I looked like a model that day and I felt like a model! Would definitely recommend Shelly for your wedding (or any special event) makeup!
