You see your own scalp on screen and leave with an honest plan for the weeks before your wedding, at no charge and no obligation. From there: hair preparation programs, premium Brazilian hair extensions installed four to six weeks out, and hair and makeup for you and your party on the day.

“I always have such a great experience at this salon! Everyone is so welcoming and I always feel very well taken care of. They have incredible products and treatments. I used to struggle with a lot of scalp irritation and allergies, and they created a series of scalp treatments for me. After several sessions, my scalp is now completely healthy, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! On top of that, their blowouts are amazing. My hair always looks beautiful, and I leave the salon feeling confident, refreshed, and truly cared for. I highly recommend them, especially if you’re looking for a salon that not only makes your hair look beautiful but also genuinely cares about the health of your hair and scalp.”

Beauty stems from the inside and that’s where we start with our babes. We want our couples to feel like an elevated version of themselves.

“I hired Love Wolves Co for my hair and make up and had the best experience with them! Karen was my stylist and she did such an amazing job both for my engagement shoot and wedding day! As someone who never wears more than some mascara, she really allowed me to still feel natural and like myself while highlighting my features and ensuring my make up would photograph well. In fact, she did such a great job with make up for me and my bridesmaids that my step-mom (who typically hates getting her make up done) added that service day of! Knowing that my fine hair doesn’t hold well, I had Karen stay for a touch up right before my ceremony and couldn’t recommend that enough! Everyone loved working with her!”

“We’ve had the honor of working with Ari Haynes with Velvet and Venus Beauty for over 3 years & she’s taken care of dozens of our brides (and their loved ones!). She’s always showed up, did a splendid job, left everyone in awe, and gave it all - even when shorter timelines were at play. She isn’t just an amazing hair and makeup artist… this is someone who will literally roll out of bed at 3 a.m. for a sunrise elopement and still have the energy to hype up a bride like it’s 2 p.m. Not impressed yet? Okay, how about this: she once climbed a mountain in Norway — hair kit in tow — just to keep two brides getting married that day looking flawless on a five-hour journey from mountaintop vows all the way down to a beachside celebration on the other side. Oh, and because that wasn’t enough… she’s also hopped into a helicopter (yep, after saying “just in case, love you babe” to her guy) to do touch-ups in windy weather by a remote alpine lake. Like… who does that?! And when there’s no emergency beauty need? Don’t worry — Ari’s probably pulling together a last-minute charcuterie or finding another way to make someone’s day easier, because that’s just who she is. Always present, always giving 100%, always showing up for her brides. Ari has been part of countless EZ Elopements experiences over the years, and her commitment, energy, and love for what she does have made a lasting impression on countless couples over the years. Although EZ Elopements and Ari are now pursuing different paths professionally, I can say with full confidence that she remains an incredibly talented and dedicated artist. I’ll always be grateful for the incredible work and energy she brought to our shared journey. Thank you Ari, you truly are one of a kind.”

“I was a nervous wreck on my wedding day. Julie chatted with me and made me feel comfortable. She did the make-up for 5 people in my wedding party, in addition to myself, all in one day! I loved my hair and make-up, and she walked me through it every step of the way, really listening to my wants. She even helped with covering up an uneven tan on my back. I still use the make-up she gave me from that day even one year later. Thank you Julie!”

An East Bay Makeup Artist with over 10+ years in the industry. My valuable experience in the makeup industry was gained at Sephora, where I have been trained by brand educators from Make Up Forever, Urban Decay, NARS, DryBar, Dior, KENDO brands, and many more. My experience has not only been limited in retail stores, but I have spent time in theatrical makeup and was able to gain valuable experience and nomination for my work. I have decided to focus on bridal makeup as it puts my skills to the test on a special day for you!
