Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment Zayra arrived, she was incredibly sweet, calming, and so in tune with every detail of what I had envisioned for my look. I was definitely feeling some nerves that morning, especially since our wedding was an intimate elopement and it was just the two of us, but she created such a peaceful, supportive energy that made it easy for me to relax and really enjoy the moment. She took such thoughtful care with every step, checking in, listening closely, and adjusting anything until it felt just right. The final result was everything I had hoped for: timeless, effortless, and totally me. I’m so grateful to have had her by my side on such a special day.

I've been a HMUA for a little over 14 years, worked in the big city (LA) and now back in my hometown raising our 2 littles doing what I love most! I've worked all over the industry! I'm a licensed esthetician and really have found my happy place here with all my beautiful brides! I still love working on sets, all sorts of events but there's just something about being there for someone on their big day that never gets old. I've been a bride myself and can attest to the overwhelming mix of emotions that come with planning such an important day. SO I'm here to ease a bit of that for you as your day of artist! xoxo Amanda

Awarded Best of Zola
I am so glad that we had Amanda as a part of our wedding day. Amanda was very responsive as soon as we first starting discussing on Zola. I was so glad she was willing to brainstorm and discuss with me on my vision; I especially appreciated that she did not shy away from styling my naturally curly hair. I did a bridal hair and makeup trial with Amanda and already loved the results. However, she went above and beyond in taking our notes from the trial to make the final look on our wedding day even more elevated! I also loved her touch-up kit and really thoughtful education on how to maintain the look throughout the night. Amanda and her team also did the hair and makeup for my family in the bridal suite. I have heard nothing but amazing feedback about their knowledge, work, and professionalism. The personalization to every individual to make them feel their best was appreciated by everyone. I would 100% recommend working with Amanda!

She was so flexible and creative, even my MOL who was not going to get her hair done decided to after seeing what Kelsey could accomplish! My hair is extremely fine and prone to knotting, so I was nervous to do a half up/half down with extensions but Kelsey's technique and products kept my curls afloat and tangle-free through countless hugs, dancing, and a convertible ride home. She brought amazing vibes to the morning, keeping everyone in good spirits. Thank you for everything Kelsey!

Makeup artistry is a passion for me. I love being a part of such a special day! With years of experience, I love working with my clients to create their desired look that will leave them feeling beautiful and confident. I am an on location MUA which means I go to you! I believe all brides should feel pampered and worry free on their big day!

I am a minimal makeup girly but when my wedding day was coming up, I wasn't sure whether I should go the DIY route (as was most of my wedding), until a friend recommended Santana. Makeup by Santana was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding day! From the very beginning, Santana's communication was clear, consistent, and she was open to my ideas, while also helping me narrow down and paint the picture of the look I was going for. Santana asked thoughtful questions during our trial makeup and then again on wedding day about the looks we had discussed prior, but was she was also assertive in guiding me towards the perfect beauty look (i.e., making minor changes such as lashes and asking if I was still okay with a certain look, color, etc.). On the day of, Santana made me feel incredibly comfortable and relaxed, which allowed her to work her magic and create a flawless makeup application that lasted all night long. The quality of Santana's work was truly exceptional and worth every penny - I've never felt more glamorous! I would highly recommend Makeup by Santana to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and communicative beauty team to be part of their special day.

I truly could not have been happier with my wedding makeup, working with Annaliza and the MakeYourselfUp team was one of the best decisions I made for my big day.

On the wedding day, she arrived early, calm, and fully prepared, which made the entire experience feel so seamless and stress-free.

Awarded Best of Zola
If I could give Kim Baker Beauty more than 5 stars, I would!! My wife and I got married in Saratoga, California a couple of weeks ago and we couldn't have been more thrilled with Kim, Lupe, and Steven. We got hair and makeup for ourselves and our bridesmaids, junior bridesmaids, and even a little kid makeup for our flower girls. Our priorities were to feel present on our wedding day and to feel like ourselves, just a little more polished. We don't wear makeup on a day to day basis, and so we didn't want fake lashes or extensions. Kim worked with us to help us achieve our vision for our hair and makeup and encouraged us to give her extensive notes about what we didn't like at our preview (SO hard to do as a people pleaser, but Kim created a safe space where we were able to do so). My wife Ali thought she wanted a glowy look, but ended up going completely non-glowy on wedding day and LOVED it. She struggles to have her hair hold a curl for more than an hour, and Kim did such a good job her hair was still wavy the morning after the wedding after sleeping on it all night! I found out at our preview how particular I am about having my makeup done, and Kim let me do my eyeliner and eyebrows myself on our wedding day. It was the perfect balance of feeling pampered by Kim but still feeling in control of the things I am very picky about! Both of us have very sensitive scalps, and Kim made sure each and every pin felt comfortable and wasn't pinching. It made a HUGE difference in our stamina throughout our long crazy wedding to not have the added sensory nightmare of pins buried in our heads. Full disclosure, Kim is a dear friend of mine. But she and her team also hit it off with the rest of our bridal party! They're in selfies taken while getting ready, and they even got our shy junior bridesmaids chatting and laughing. We are so grateful for how they made our wedding morning feel organized, calm, and fun! If you're not sure whether to book Kim Baker Beauty, take it from me - there's none better.

Hi there, I’m Lauren! I am a Bay Area makeup artist that has been in the beauty industry for 5+ years. My signature makeup style is "soft glam" which is suitable for any anyone between natural to glam brides. Working with me as your wedding makeup artist would not only include the makeup application itself but also around the clock email/ text communication from the very beginning of the booking process to the wedding day. My main priority is to ensure you have a smooth booking process with me and a stress-free wedding morning.

Lauren was fantastic, she was very communicative and accommodating. She worked with my mom & MIL to get their desired look for the wedding and made me feel beautiful. My makeup lasted all night and I got a ton of compliments. Lauren also brought another artist to accommodate my large party and she was fantastic as well.

Gracie Glam & Beauty provided excellent service for my wedding day. From the start, Gracie was prompt in her communication, friendly, and took the time to really understand the vision each of my bridesmaids and I had for our hair and makeup. She and her assistant Laura made the glam process so fun and relaxing - we all felt so special and beautiful. Gracie listened closely to our individual preferences and consistently checked in to ensure we were thrilled with the results. The quality of their work was outstanding, and I'm so grateful to have had Gracie and Laura there to help us look and feel our absolute best on my wedding day.
