I cannot recommend Candice and the team of women at Society 11:11 enough! She did my makeup for my wedding, along with my MOA and my mom, and every single one of us was blown away by her talent. My mom even loved her makeup so much she didn’t want to remove it! Candice truly is the best at what she does, using top-tier products to create flawless looks. Before my wedding shower, I was dealing with stress-related skin irritation and redness, and Candice worked her magic to make my skin look flawless. Her recommendations were spot-on and showed her expertise. I utilized both hair and makeup services and everyone LOVED their look-thank you to the ladies who were apart of the hair team! I am now a client for life! I will continuously book with Candice because her work is unmatched. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making me feel beautiful on such an important day!

Jasmine Lynn Makeup

  • Team of 1
  • Starts at $450
  • Serves Ashland, VA

I’m Jasmine, A Richmond, Virginia based makeup artist dedicated to enhancing the natural beauty of those I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and those I’ve yet to meet. What began as a love for makeup through creativity and self-expression has grown into a meaningful career centered around connection and helping others feel like the best versions of themselves.

I had the pleasure of having Jasmine do my bridal makeup and the makeup for my bridal party. Immediately from our consultation and trial at Melt, Jasmine was welcoming and calm, yet also driven and confident in her skills. She took the time to know what exactly I was and was not looking for. She took note of things I was particular about (filling in my eyebrows) and ensured they were exactly how I wanted before moving on. She even fielded my never ending questions about skin care since she is so knowledgeable! On my wedding day, Jasmine was promptly on time and a calm presence that helped keep me at ease. Jasmine was happy to make any changes throughout the makeup application process with no issue (I was difficult and changed my lip color 3 times). My entire bridal party still continues to rave about Jasmine’s work and claim it was the best professional makeup they’ve had. We all felt like enhanced versions of ourselves—it was exactly what we were looking for. The small kit of to-go and touch up items that Jasmine provided each of us ensured our makeup looked perfect the entire night. I would highly recommend Jasmine for any and all bridal/formal makeup services! Melt is lucky to have her.

Manpreet from Glam By MK was an absolute dream to work with! She created four stunning looks for me over our wedding weekend, and each one was beautiful, unique, and perfectly matched to the outfit and occasion. I don’t usually wear much makeup, and my only request was to keep everything looking natural and true to me—and she completely nailed it. The makeup enhanced my features without ever feeling heavy or overdone. Even my friends who are makeup pros couldn’t stop complimenting her work! Her hairstyling was just as amazing—each look was different, elegant, and enhanced with the perfect accessories. She also did hair for my mom and sister, and I loved how all their styles turned out. Her assistant did a fantastic job with their makeup too! Manpreet was professional, calm, and so easy to work with throughout. I’m so glad I had her as my artist for such an important weekend—highly recommend her to any bride!

Renee Doorly 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Ashland, VA

I am a freelance hair and makeup artist offering on-site bridal hairstyling and makeup. My artistic approach stems from my time studying painting at VCU Arts. I’ve learned so much in my 6 years doing bridal styling and have loved every minute. From in-person and online workshops to learn from other artists in my community, I am always picking up new techniques and finding new inspiration. My style is natural but elevated. I love texture and romance.

Renee was such a blessing for our wedding! I wanted to do big, voluminous Hollywood waves and she knocked it out of the park! She took the time to make sure she really understood what I wanted, and when I asked to make some tweaks after the first trial she went above and beyond to make sure I was 100% happy! She absolutely killed it on our wedding day, from updos to curls, everyone looked amazing and lasted all day. People are still telling me how amazing my hair looked. On top of it all She’s such a sweet gentle person that everyone was so comfortable with. 10/10 recommended!

Bridal beauty is my passion—and it all starts with great skin. With over 6 years of experience and more than 200 weddings under my belt, I’ve had the honor of making brides look and feel their most beautiful. My love for makeup naturally led me into esthetics, where I discovered a deep appreciation for the science behind radiant skin. Now, I offer full-service beauty, from personalized skincare treatments to flawless makeup, lashes, brows, full-body waxing, and spray tans—helping you glow from the inside out.

Ashton Michelle Makeup and Esthetics was an absolute joy to work with! Their communication style was positive, upbeat, and crystal clear. The quality of their work was excellent - they have a great understanding of combination skin and provided a clean, flawless application. I did a styled shoot with Ellynne Bridal and Ashton did amazing work touching me up throughout the shoot, making me look and feel stunning. I felt so pretty and confident thanks to their skilled artistry. I highly recommend Ashton Michelle Makeup and Esthetics!

Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

Kristin is AMAZING!!!! She is THE BEST hair & make up artist in the industry. Not only have I had the pleasure of working with her for the last decade in the wedding industry and referred her to many of my brides, she also did my hair & make up for my own wedding and engagement shoot! Not to mention.. nine other of my bridesmaids! She is a true artist and really cares about her clients. She intentionally gets know their style and what they want to embody on their wedding day to make them feel the most beautiful! I highly recommend Kristin for your wedding! She is such a genuinely amazing person and an extremely talented hair and make up artist!

We had an excellent experience with Wendy and her stylists Emily and Jinay. My trial with Wendy and Jinay was super comfortable and they gave me confidence in my choices. I'm not someone who does my hair and makeup so I was nervous going into the trial, but they made me feel at ease and confident with my hair and makeup. On the wedding day, Wendy, Jinay and Emily were friendly, professional, and easy to work with. They did a great job with my bridal party which included several bridesmaids, my mom, and my 3 yo niece. Everyone (even the little one) felt comfortable and happy with the hair and makeup process! I felt happy throughout the whole wedding day and reception with my hair and makeup. I would wholeheartedly recommend Wendy and her team to anyone getting married!

I feel so incredibly lucky to have gotten to work with Tai for my March 2025 wedding. I had never gotten my makeup professionally done before, and honestly had some nerves going into the process. I knew from pictures that I felt like Tai’s style fit what I was envisioning, and in the first minutes of meeting Tai, I knew I was in good hands. She is such a kind and bubbly person, the trial felt like catching up with an old friend. Seeing myself in the mirror both on the trial and on the wedding day, I felt truly beautiful and confident. I felt like me, but elevated. On top of that, she also helped to cover a scar that I got on my back from an unexpected procedure a month prior to my wedding. I felt so insecure about it, and she was able to cover it with ease. As for the look itself, it lasted all night, through happy tears and a hot dance floor. One of the best wedding vendors out there, would definitely work with her again!!

I felt so safe in her chair because I knew that she was incredible. When she emailed me that my wedding date was still open, I booked as soon as I could. Her work truly speaks for itself. Along with myself, she did two of my bridesmaids hair- one with brides and one without extensions (both are shown in the pictures). I couldn’t recommend Serena more.
