I had such a wonderful experience working with Jodi from Simply Stunning Bridal for my wedding hair and makeup! From the very beginning, she was incredibly friendly, professional, and easy to communicate with. Her prices were very reasonable, especially considering the high quality of her work. What really stood out to me was her flexibility and willingness to try different styles during the trial to make sure we landed on the perfect look. She was patient, open to feedback, and truly listened to what I wanted. I left the trial feeling confident and excited for the big day—and she absolutely delivered! On the wedding day, Jodi was calm, organized, and a lovely presence to have around. She made me feel beautiful, and everything held up perfectly through the entire day. I can't recommend her enough to any bride looking for a talented and easygoing artist to bring their vision to life! Photo Credit-Taylor Washburn Photography

You deserve to feel like the most beautiful version of yourself on your wedding day. The Bridal Beauty Team offers luxury, on-location hair and makeup services designed to be calm, personalized, and truly unforgettable. With award-winning artistry, years of experience, and a genuine love for celebrating every unique story, our team creates timeless looks that feel effortless, radiant, and completely you. From your first getting-ready moments to your walk down the aisle, we’re honored to be part of it all.

Working with The Bridal Beauty Team was nothing short of extraordinary. I booked with them somewhat far out from my wedding, but my call with Kate, the owner, as a consultation was a match right off the bat. She got to know me as a human not just a bride, and took great care in my vision for my day. Gina, whom I sincerely apologized to for all of my questions and emails (lol) was SO incredibly kind and patient and made any updates to our contract or services any time I asked! Now, onto the artists: I had my trial with Jeannette, who made me feel so beautiful and comfortable, I knew we were a good match! I felt confident with her as lead artist! On the day of, Jeannette, Myriam, Jenna, Lorena and Rene all exceeded any and all expectations. There were a total of 30 (I think) services being performed and I have never seen such a “well oiled machine” of hair and makeup before. They took time and care for each service but also moved so quickly that they were finished early. We didn’t have to start at 6am with that many people, which honestly, was a huge concern. Everyone felt and looked STUNNING and I truly could not stop staring at myself after my hair and makeup were finished. Haven’t gotten all of our professional photos back, so including what I can! Including a before photo, an after selfie, an iPhone photo at the end of the night & one of my professional photos from afar so you can see how glowy and dewy she made me look!

Kristen did hair for my August wedding and she did a great job! I had a few inspiration photos and we tried quite a few things during my trial before I picked what I wanted. She was so patient and experienced, the whole process was really great. She worked with straight hair, curly hair, and extensions with ease. My hair doesn’t hold curl well so she pinned it for a while after curling it on the day of and it held much longer than I expected! I would absolutely recommend her to any future brides.

I grew up with a mom and sister who took vanity very seriously. I began my career in event makeup in my hometown, Shelby, Ohio. I was recruited by MAC Cosmetics and was thoroughly trained in color theory and cosmetic chemistry. Soon after, I was trained by nurse injectors to identify proportionate face shapes, learning how to attain them with makeup. My career has evolved through editorial, bridal, and executive styling in Chicago, Michigan, Ohio, and New York. Now available on site internationally, I am fortunate to show everyone their Ray of Beauty.

10/10, 5 stars isn't enough! He did my bridal makeup and my entire bridal party, and we all looked absolutely stunning. Our makeup lasted all day, photographed beautifully, and was exactly what we envisioned. Not only is he incredibly talented, but he's also professional, kind, and such a calming presence on a busy and stressful wedding morning. I received endless compliments on my makeup and felt so confident on my wedding day. If you're considering booking him, DO IT—you will not be disappointed!

I planned my wedding out of state and she even gave me some wedding planning recommendations that were not hair and makeup related!

I booked the Gold package and she gave me products at my trial that made my hair so soft and ready for the big day. On the morning of the wedding, my half-up half-down style came out exactly how I pictured it, and it held through some crazy wind without getting too frizzy or falling apart. Haley was also a joy to have around while she worked on my hair, my sister's, and my mom's—we had great conversations the whole time. She worked efficiently despite starting a bit late (my fault since she wasn't sure where to go at the venue) and still had time to spare after doing all of our hair! She really brought my vision to life and made sure we all looked beautiful. I would absolutely book her again!

From Bridal to Bachelorette, from Photo Shoots to Parties -- we cover all areas of Makeup! In addition to providing modern, top-of-the-line makeup service, The Makeup Loft also offers Special event hairstyling, Cosmetic Color Consultation, and Makeup Lessons covering all spectrums of beautification.

I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day, and that is all thanks to the Makeup Loft!  From the beginning, before I even signed the contract, the ladies at the Makeup Loft were a joy to work with. Allie was a wonderful coordinator - she answered all my questions and communicated promptly.  My trial was so much fun and I felt like I was truly heard. On my wedding day the 4 stylists - Taylor (MUA), Ryleigh (MUA), Chaney (Hair Stylist), and Mikayla (Hair Stylist) were right on time, set up very quickly, and were ready to go. The kept everyone on schedule and were out the door at the correct time. Logistics aside - everyone looked STUNNING. Like truly the most gorgeous version of themselves. What I love about Makeup Loft is they don't try to transform you; they truly bring out the beauty you already have. There were many selfies taken. The hair was similarly magical. It didn't matter if the girls had the thickest curly hair or the finest straight hair everyone's vision became a reality. I have to shout out my personal stylists who I could not possibly say enough positive things about. Chaney must have special powers because I don't know how she managed to get my hair to look like it did. I have always had fine curly hair, and she somehow got it to look like the pictures below in about an hour. I got so many compliments all night (and yes, it stayed exactly like that all night). And Taylor. Taylor is not only an amazing MUA but she is also an amazing person to have with you on your wedding day. My make-up was perfect. I was glowing and I have never felt more beautiful. She took my trial look and elevated it x1000. The make-up lasted all night through multiple hours of dancing. Taylor also went above and beyond to help with my mom who has dementia. She made sure she looked beautiful and was taken care of all morning. The compassion and care she showed me and her on this day really means and says so much about her, the rest of the team (who were also amazing with her), and the Makeup Loft in general. If you want to look like the best version of yourself, feel like a princess, and be treated like family I cannot recommend Makeup Loft enough!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Giulia was absolutely wonderful to work with from the moment we first got in touch! Her attention to detail throughout the entire process leading up to my wedding day was incredible — from skincare routine guides to detailed questionnaires, she puts 110% into making sure your makeup is your exact vision. Giulia is also just a lovely person to be around; she’s kind and personable with everyone she tends to. I would highly recommend Giulia Grace Beauty for the best bridal makeup experience!
