I'm Sara-bridal hair & makeup artist with over 20 years of salon and bridal experience. I specialize in soft glam, seamless airbrush makeup, and dreamy long lasting hairstyles. I'm inclusive of all couples, including LGBTQIA+. When you book with me, you're getting more than a glam artist-you're getting a cheerleader, a calming presence, and a new bestie who is in your corner long after the big day. I'm also reasonably obsessed with rescue pets-so if you bring up your pet, just know I'll fully commit to that conversation!

Sara was amazing. She was so easy to work with and helped me feel relaxed and at ease on my big day. After our trial, even though I LOVED how she did my hair for that, I decided almost last minute that I wanted a different vibe and she didn’t flinch! She made my vision come to life and never made me feel bad when I had different ideas. The makeup was natural and beautiful. Highly recommend!!

Audrey and her team were incredible for our wedding! I had a trial about 6 months out from our date, and when it came time, I wanted to make a couple adjustments to my look, and it ended up PERFECT – even better than I thought was possible. I loved my hair and makeup and it lasted all night, which was especially impressive considering I was sweating from dancing so much. For my bridesmaids as well. Audrey also organized a schedule for bridesmaids to help organize the time the morning of and we finished on time! Would definitely recommend.

I had a great experience with Kiss this Makeup for my wedding day glam! Jenna Marie did my hair & makeup and I couldn't have been happier with the results.

Eva and Maria from Hairs 2 the Bride, LTD truly saved the day for us! The night before our wedding, when our original makeup/hair artist had to cancel last minute, Eva and Maria stepped in and worked their magic. Despite their busy schedule, they managed to fit us in and did an exceptional job, making us look absolutely perfect on our special day. Their professionalism and skill were evident throughout the entire process. We were impressed by their attention to detail and how they listened to our preferences, ensuring that we felt comfortable and confident with the final look. Eva and Maria's ability to adapt to unexpected situations like ours is truly commendable. Although the last-minute change was a bit stressful, the seamless way in which Eva and Maria handled everything provided us with a sense of relief and confidence. The only neutral aspect we would mention is that due to the short notice, there wasn't much time for a trial session before the wedding. However, Eva and Maria's expertise and quick grasp of our style preferences made this a minor concern in the end. In the end, we couldn't have asked for a better outcome. Eva and Maria's professionalism, talent, and calm demeanor turned what could have been a crisis into a blessing in disguise. We are incredibly grateful for their amazing work and would highly recommend Hairs 2 the Bride, LTD to any couple looking for top-notch hair and makeup services for their big day.

It took me months to find a MUA for my wedding. When I found Nancy I was so impressed but nervous only because of my past experiences getting make up done. Nancy made me feel so comfortable, and listed and explained everything during my trial. I kept thinking like - everything could go wrong on the wedding day, but at least my makeup was going to look BOMB. Also, my MOH does not wear any make up. I was so worried because she was one of those “only a little of this and that” but Nancy did such an amazing job, my MOH was so happy!

My make up lasted through a whole day/night in Chicago in August (incredibly humid and I'm a sweaty gal), and through every tear I shed.

Ellvia Beauty was a true pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was top-notch - they were always quick to respond to my emails, usually within 24 hours. On the day of, Nikki and Alecia were amazing! They listened to everything we had to say and curated the perfect looks for everyone. The quality of their work was incredible - I've never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day thanks to their skills. My hair and makeup stayed picture-perfect throughout the entire event. I can't recommend Ellvia Beauty enough to any future brides looking for a beauty team that will help you look and feel your absolute best on your special day.

When I first got in contact with Cristal for my October wedding, I instantly knew she was my makeup/hair artist! We instantly became friends, and took the time to get to know me and my wedding vision! She was so fast to respond to any questions I had, as well as being so accommodating. Cristal was willing to go between locations and work with our timeline. We did a trial run, and loved the results along with great recommendations to where I could get the products if I loved them. The hair and makeup for my bridesmaids and I turned out amazing and lasted the whole day! Her artistry and how much she loves her work really shows through. I couldn't have asked for a better hair and makeup stylist to complete my wedding day!
