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/

I lived my whole life, thinking that make up is not for me because every time I got it professionally done, I felt completely disappointed. This is UNTIL I worked with Alina. She did the most beautiful make up for me without changing my unique features or making me look like someone else. I was so happy! Honestly, if I could, I’d be coming to Alina for make up every week. She is a true professional but also, the kindest person. You can tell just how much she cares to see you walking away feeling your most beautiful self. Do not hesitate to book if you want a MUA who actually listens to you and wants to highlight everything that is special about you, instead of doing the same thing for every client.

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!

The shadow choices were bright, bold, and so flattering—I honestly didn’t recognize myself in the best possible way when I looked in the mirror. It was like seeing the most glamorous version of me!

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!

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)!

Had our wedding down by The Cape stunning views great food great times but when I saw my wife walk down the aisle I couldn’t contain myself. Her hair and make up was just PERFECT! Jess did the brides hair and all of the brides maids and everyone came down that aisle looking stunning no one more stunning then my wife, 10/10 would recommend
