Awarded Best of Zola
Beauty & Bridal Philly was an absolute delight to work with for my wedding day. From the very first interaction, the team was responsive, flexible, and incredibly kind. As a woman of color with a multiethnic bridal party, I was worried about finding a makeup team that would be well-versed in things like color theory and able to make us look and feel beautiful. But the artists at Beauty & Bridal Philly exceeded my expectations - Martha in particular made sure I looked absolutely stunning, and her Tess, and Tiffani made the entire bridal party looked flawless. The quality of their work is truly professional and long-lasting - our makeup was on for over 12 hours and it still looked great by the end of the night!. I couldn't have asked for a better beauty team to help make our special day perfect.

I was attending a formal wedding in DC & needed an updo. I googled online and through Senema Beauty I was put in touch w Aida. We worked out the details via text. She came to my hotel & did my hair in about 40 minutes! It was the same price as if I had travelled to a DC salon!!! Totally worth it!! Took away a lot of stress & 2 Uber rides! It looked absolutely AMAZING!! It stayed up for over 8 hours & never lost its shape or styling in the back. Even with the 98 degree DC heat, my tendril curls that framed my face stayed curled with the finishing spray that she used. Aida is very talented and should be used for any event where you need a stunning updo! She was a true joy to work with! I wish she lived in ATL!

Rita and her team did a great job with the hair and makeup for my wedding in November 2024. She was very responsive during the booking process, everything was very clear and seamless. The trial went well and she made sure that I liked how everything looked. Everything on the day of the wedding looked as expected based on the trial. I hardly ever wear makeup and asked for a more natural look and it turned out perfect! I also have fine hair and was worried about having volume, but Rita was able to make my hair look thicker than it is. Both the hair and makeup lasted all night and still looked good after being done around 12pm. We had 6 people getting services and everything was done on time by Rita and her assistant, she provided a schedule so that I was able to let people know when they could arrive. I would recommend Rita to anyone looking for wedding hair and makeup services, she was a pleasure to work with. Thank you!

I had originally booked both Hair and Makeup with Cloud & Rea Studio but due to a scheduling conflict Kelsea ended up stepping in the day of the wedding to help me and my bridal party with all our different hair looks. She was great to work with and pulled together 4 very different hair styles while dealing with different hair textures and lengths. We were able to clearly communicate our vision and she brought it to life with skill and professionalism. She also did a stellar job at the end of our getting ready session when my matron of honor still needed to get her hair done and we were running behind to get picked up. Kelsea was able to get her hair done in a fraction of the time she normally would have and it looked amazing all day. We had a late morning wedding with a late afternoon reception and everything held up for all 4 of us through the ceremony, pictures, and dancing. I would highly recommend Kelsea if you’re in the DC area.

Hi everyone my name is Caleigh Era. I've always had a passion for doing bridal hair. I went to cosmetology school right after high school. I graduated from Graham Webb Academy in 2012. I absolutely love doing bridal hair and I can't wait to work with you on your special day.

Caleigh is absolutely amazing. She is so kind and stunning at her work. I found her on instagram and saw her work and instantly knew i wanted her for my wedding. I made everyone in my wedding party have there hair done because of how amazing she is . My hair trail was fantastic because she does it on the day uou try your dress on so that you can get a visual, which is so smart! I love her and would hire her again and again

From the moment I booked Sarah for my wedding day, I knew I was in capable hands—but she still managed to exceed every expectation. Her professionalism, artistry, and calming presence made my bridal makeup experience perfect. Her communication is thorough and punctual. I was looking for a glam makeup look that enhanced my natural beauty without looking harsh and Sarah delivered exactly that. She listened attentively to my vision, offered thoughtful suggestions, and created a flawless look that made me feel radiant and confident. The makeup lasted beautifully throughout the day and late through the night. Even through tears, I had perfect application. I received endless compliments from guests. Sarah arrived early, prepared, and ready to make the day as stress-free as possible. Her positive energy was contagious, and she made everyone in my bridal party feel like the best version of themselves. She was able to do makeup for my mother, sisters and cousin in addition to my own. If you're searching for a makeup artist who combines skill with heart, I wholeheartedly recommend Sarah Khan. She helped make my wedding day even more special, and I will cherish the memories—and the photos—forever.

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!
