Laura Sent on 05/06/2024Best Make up/Hair Team Ever!
This was the best experience for not just myself but the whole team! I was exhausted from making all the wedding decor up to the last day before the wedding and Elizabeth made me look like a million dollars. Shout out to Caitlin and Alicia who also made my bridal team look stunning! Elizabeth from the beginning was very sweet and helpful and felt like family because she cares about your wants and needs for the wedding. They executed everything perfectly. They truly are the best at what they do and I would highly recommend this company! -

Elizabeth has been in our events circle for some time. A friend of a friend of a friend type situation. I knew after being on my friend Sarah’s wedding that she was the one for me. I didn’t even do a wedding make up trial because I knew she could handle whatever it was I needed for my special day. Not only did everyone look GORGEOUS but she was flexible, understanding of hiccups, and wears many hats the day of. For my friends wedding her company did both my hair and makeup which was AMAZING. On my own wedding day Elizabeth did my makeup and I felt beautiful, like myself and completely calm. This was one vendor I absolutely... -

Saira Sent on 09/17/2019Amazing wedding makeup and hair
Elizabeth is amazing! Can’t speak highly enough about her and her work. We got married on the hottest day of the summer and my make up did not melt off and it looked unreal. She was very flexible with last minute schedule changes. I’ve been in so many weddings and she is the best person I have ever worked with and very reasonably priced. Will recommend her always and use her for any future needs.

I had met Elizabeth and seen her work back in 2014 for my now Sister-in-laws wedding, it was so amazing that when I got engaged, she was the first vendor I contacted. Right from the start, Elizabeth was responsive, professional and friendly. Setting up a trial was incredibly easy and finalizing last minute details was quick and painless. I had a huge bridal party with around 13 attendants that needed hair/makeup services and this was no problem for Elizabeth or her team. They came in, set right up and jumped in. We had three little ones running around and Elizabeth didn't miss a beat. One of the best things about her and her team was the fact that they... -

Jennifer Sent on 11/19/2017They were great with all my girls and I for my wedding day. Both very personable and made the day easy and fun. Elizabeth and her assistant are so talented and I would highly recommend them for hair and make up to anyone. -

User2418519 Sent on 11/06/2015I hired Elizabeth for hair styling for my wedding this past August. She was absolutely wonderful. I had 2 trials with her, and both times she gave me exactly what I asked for. We found the perfect updo at my second trial! Elizabeth is extremely responsive to e-mails, very friendly, and just super easy to work with during the planning process. She also works very quickly! She did my hair as well as hair for all my bridesmaids, and we were all done well ahead of schedule (which according to my wedding coordinator is extremely rare since hair/makeup usually takes longer than anticipated)! Our updo's also lasted all night long! I highly recommend Elizabeth for any wedding or special event! -

Danielle Sent on 05/23/2015Elizabeth is WONDERFUL to work with. She is patient and willing to give you great ideas for hair and makeup. She does a beautiful job and I would use her again in a heart beat. She is so professional, prompt and excited to help you celebrate your big day. She takes her time and ensures her work is flawless. -

Katie Sent on 09/22/2014Elizabeth and Allison were awesome! I had a full plate ready for her, with myself, 7 bridesmaids, and 2 moms all needing to get ready for my June 27 wedding. Elizabeth remained calm the whole time, and everyone was finished well before the time frame ended. All the girls looked absolutely gorgeous. She redid one makeup and Allison redid 2 hairsyles so my girls would be happy, and they took all suggestions and moved quickly. I felt so beautiful, and they were so fun! I even changed my hairstyle the day off, and she didn't even blink an eye! Elizabeth is definitely the best out there! -

Shannon Sent on 02/13/2014Elizabeth was my favorite vendor! She did the hair and makeup for my wedding on 1-18-14. She was easy to communicate with, had reasonable prices and provided quality service. My hair and make up was better than I could have imagined. My mother and bridesmaids looked fabulous. If you are looking for someone who will go above and beyond then The Updo Guru is for you! -

Corinne Sent on 09/24/2013Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! I have known Elizabeth for awhile but have never had any type of service done from her before but i knew for me and my girls on my wedding day she had to do our hair and makeup! I could not believe how amazing my hair and makeup came out i still ( 2 months later ) have people tell me how amazing every ones hair came out. She is also so organized easy to talk to and unbelievably sweet. I am so happy she shared my special day with me!!!! -

Elizabeth Sent on 05/07/2013It was a pleasure to work with Elizabeth right from the start; from the trial run right up until the wedding day - she was awesome!
Elizabeth and Allison were simply AMAZING the day of my wedding!! From the moment they arrived at my parents home to begin our pampering (at the crack of dawn lol) all of the ladies had a blast! Everyone's hair and makeup looked absolutely stunning; all of the girls were extremely happy.
My hair and makeup stayed in place ALL DAY and NIGHT and I received so many compliments from my guests. I would absolutely recommend Elizabeth. I am happy to say that she will be doing the wedding's for two... -

Jade Sent on 12/12/2012Liz was the best! She was quick to respond to my emails and answered any/all questions I had. She made me feel at ease and relaxed while getting ready with my ladies. She made me look like a million bucks and all of my girls looked like rock stars! She gave me the look I envisioned for my wedding and then some! I love looking at my pics! I recommended her to my good friend who is getting married next year (I'm also a bridesmaid). I can't wait to have my hair and makeup done again! -

Highly recommend!
Liz was amazing! I did my hair and makeup trial with her in August, and she just did my hair and makeup for my wedding this past weekend. I absolutely love how I looked both times.
She did a great job of looking at my inspo photos and adapting the application to my face. I felt like myself - just a much more glam version. Everyone was complimenting me on how beautiful the hair and makeup looked at the wedding. I really felt so amazing and confident.
And despite a rainy wedding day, my makeup lasted from 9:30 am to 2:30 am, all through the ceremony, reception and after party. My lashes stayed put, and no creasing... -

Hire Elizabeth ASAP!!
Elizabeth was recommended by my cousin. She responded quickly to my emails and invited me into her home for a makeup trial. Elizabeth used a variety of makeup brands including airbrush. I explained to her that I would be tanner come the wedding day and she used a darker foundation to show me what it would look like. The trial was perfect! I explained that I wanted my eyebrows to look more natural and she did just that. The day of the wedding she arrived early and worked for hours by herself on 10 women! She hardly took a break! She was friendly and made our "getting ready" portion of the day so fun. I don't know how this... -

Feeling: Flawless & Beautiful!
I first found Liz as she did my hair and makeup for another wedding that I was a bridesmaid in. I fell in love with her work and how she made me look and feel! I do not wear heavy makeup on a daily basis, and Liz takes all that into consideration when doing your makeup. She gives each client the look that they will feel most comfortable and beautiful wearing all day long! The airbrush makeup that they use is so light, looks flawless in pictures, and lasted all day and into the night! Liz is very flexible with traveling and creating a “hair and makeup schedule” for the wedding day! Liz and her assistant made my wedding... -

Wow!! What a wonderful experience I had with Elizabeth! I had originally booked her to do my makeup (and my bridal party's make up) for my wedding. She was extremely organized, efficient, and incredibly sweet from day one. She was very responsive to all my make up questions and made me feel very relaxed and excited about the entire process.
About 2 months out from my wedding, the hair stylist I had booked had cancelled on me. I emailed Elizabeth right away hoping she knew someone that could fill in on makeup, and if she could work on hair instead. Within minutes, Elizabeth responded and assured me that she could take care of both services and not... -

Valerie Sent on 08/22/2018Elizabeth is amazing! We were lucky enough to have her do hair and make-up for myself (the bride) and 3 bridesmaids. She was friendly, professional, and a pleasure to work with. She made our special day less stressful by giving us a detailed timeline and making us feel comfortable at our make-up trial. We knew we were in good hands from day 1! We highly recommend Elizabeth for any of your hair and make-up needs! She is top-notch!

Krystle Sent on 05/14/2018I used the Updo Guru for my wedding on May 5, 2018. Such a great decision! Liz and her assistant arrived to our hotel suite at 6AM and too care of myself, my daughter, bridal party, mother, mother and sister in law. We all got makeup done. Some also got eyelashes and updos. I normally don't wear makeup and she knew exactly what to do to make me feel comfortable and beautiful. Our makeup and hair stayed perfect for the entire day. They were professional and gave excellent service. Highly recommend them for anyone looking to get hair and makeup done!

Arianna Sent on 03/02/2018INCREDIBLE!! I have got to say, she was reasonably priced for such a talented artist!! Elizabeth is also the sweetest thing on two feet. She did my Bridal Shower hair & makeup as well as my Wedding day hair. I first learned of her when my sister was getting married two years ago and I knew I had to have her be apart of my look for my special day. My hair for my wedding was EXACTLY what I was hoping for and looked even BETTER than the picture I used as inspiration. She was in charge of doing my entire wedding party and they all looked fabulous. All of my girls (and myself) agreed she will be used for future events!! Thanks, Liz! xoxo
