Society 11:11 and Manpreet were so easy to work with, and made sure I was comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day! I have curly hair, and was very concerned about finding a stylist who was confident working with texture. From my first meeting with the Society 11:11 team, I was at ease. Manpreet worked with me during my trial to make sure I had exactly the look that I wanted, and that I felt comfortable giving feedback about any changes I wanted to make. On my wedding day, she worked with me, as well as my sister, mom, and mother-in-law. She made us all feel great, while still looking like ourselves. I loved her ability to elevate our features in both makeup and hair styling, especially as a group of people who do not wear a lot of makeup day-to-day. I loved working with Manpreet and would recommend her and the whole team at Society 11:11! Photo courtesy of https://vnessphotography.com/

Awarded Best of Zola
I had such an amazing wedding day with Cheryl as my makeup and hair stylist. She took a lot of care and detail to make sure my look was exactly what I wanted. Even going as far as to determine when I should wash my hair so my curls would stay in longest. My make up is as exactly what I wanted and we got there because she takes time to listen to what you want for your look. I don’t normally do a full glam look, I keep it natural in my day to day routine, but she translated that to a beautiful wedding day look. She even did touch ups for me between the ceremony and the reception. We got married in the summer and I was very hot and sweaty at the peak of the heat and she was even able to refresh my hair after it fell out from my sweat. TMI but it’s the realness of getting married in the summer in the south. The pictures speak for themselves how amazing I looked and felt. Thanks for helping make my special day so incredible.

I am so glad I worked with BFF for my wedding hair and makeup! Communication was reliable throughout the booking process. My trial with Kris and Brenda was fun and really constructive- they were so responsive to my feedback and we got both hair and makeup to the perfect spot with a couple of tweaks. They also followed up with me to see how the hair and makeup held up for the rest of that day to ensure we would be in good shape on the wedding day. They did a beautiful job on my wedding day and it made hair and makeup completely stress free. They also did an amazing job on my mom, MIL, and bridesmaids and I got nothing but amazing feedback from my bridesmaids that they were the best hair and makeup artists they'd ever worked with (I'm 31 so we've all been in a solid number of weddings by now). If you're looking for the very cheapest option out there BFF may not be a fit, but I can say the outcome and process were worth every single penny.

I cannot say enough amazing things about our hair and makeup team from our wedding! I did a trial with Aida a few months beforehand and what she did on my wedding day was event BETTER than the trial! Everyone looked amazing, and she and her team were so helpful and adaptable to what everyone needed. They made us all feel and look beautiful. They used high quality products, they gave us all beautiful false lashes, and they gave us all little Touch up kits. When we did the trial Aida gave me excellent advice for how to take care of my skin. My dry skin is very tricky so when I still had issues by wedding day she whipped out all her amazing products and worked her magic to help make a better canvas for the makeup. She also worked MAGIC on short hair. We were all in awe of what she could do with our two party members who didn’t have much hair to work with. And they worked their magic on multiple skin tones from pale to Latina to black. Everything lasted all night through humidity and a breeze. zero complaints! Cannot recommend Senema beauty enough!

Kelsea and Alena made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. Kelsea chatted with me via Zoom to get an idea of what the day was going to be like and the look I was going for. I did a trial at Kelsea's studio in Virginia and I got to hang out with her adorable pup while she brought my vision to life and asked me lots of helpful questions. She then took feedback from the trial so that Alena, who was my artist on my wedding day, could execute a perfected version of the trial look. My hair isn't the easiest to work with because it's very straight and fine, but Alena got it to hold its waves all night without it feeling gross and weighed down by product. She also accentuated the purple highlights I got done shortly before the wedding to match my flowers flawlessly so that the purple showed through without being overpowering. She checked in every step of the way while doing my makeup and made sure I was good with the shades that she picked. I don't usually wear a lot of makeup so I was worried about not feeling like myself, but Kelsea and Alena achieved the perfect balance between looking glamorous, but still natural. I didn't have a bridal party, but Alena did my mom's hair and makeup as well and she looked beautiful. Cannot recommend Artistry by Kelsea enough!

Claudia was very responsive throughout the process before the wedding and clearly communicated with me as far as pricing, scheduling, advice before the day of, and timelines for getting ready. I had a late morning wedding and needed to have services for 4 of us and she came through like a champ and was able to get us looking perfect for the rest of the day. 3 of us are in our 40’s and my stepmom is in her 60’s and Claudia was able to do 4 completely different looks on us, none of which looked caked on or heavy. I really appreciated that she was able to work with different skin types and facial features, making all of us feel beautiful. I did do two makeup trials due to being indecisive on what I wanted for my final look. I knew I didn’t want it too bridal with the focus on my eyes and by working through my vision with Claudia I ended up with an amazing final product the day of my wedding. The first trial also included a hair trial that I was happy with but due to a scheduling conflict we ended up having our hair done by Artistry by Kelsea.

I loved working with Caleigh for my wedding. She was very responsive via text, and so kind and friendly. She did a beautiful job on everyone's hair and even came to the church to help add flowers to the bridesmaid's hair and put my veil in. She worked with me to find extensions that worked for my hair and overall just did a wonderful job on everything. Highly recommend!!

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!!

Thank you for considering me to be part of your big day! With 14+ years of experience, I’ve seen (and tamed) it all. If you need someone to keep your hair flawless through happy tears, epic dance moves, and maybe one too many champagne toasts—I’m your girl. I travel far and wide to make sure brides look like royalty. Think of me as your fairy hair godmother—except with a curling iron instead of a wand, making sure you’re stunning well past the afterparty. My goal? To make you feel confident, radiant, and 100% you. Let’s make some magic (and great hair)!

ItsJessHair_ was a true pleasure to work with for my wedding day. From the very first interaction, their communication was professional, quick, and detailed, putting my mind at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was absolutely beautiful, and they were incredibly cost effective and efficient, managing to style a large party of 13 people all by themselves to perfection. I felt absolutely stunning, and all of my bridesmaids looked gorgeous as well. I would book ItsJessHair_ again in a heartbeat if I could - they truly helped make my special day even more wonderful.
