About Joyful Brides

Joyful Brides

Owner/ Lead Stylist

With over 20 years in the beauty industry I am blessed to still love what I do! I am versatile in executing pretty much any hairstyle that is shown to me. I have great attention to detail, patience, and a very calming demeanor that brides love to have on their big day. My fabulous team of artists are all experienced and established in the bridal industry. We are LGBTQ Friendly and keep up with the latest trends! Upon booking you will be provided a custom timeline for the day of your wedding so you don’t have to stress about a thing! We hope you can become one of our next “Joyful Brides”!

What makes us different is we strive to make every single bride look like themselves, but elevated. Many of my makeup artists have perfected the “no makeup makeup look” for all those natural brides out there. With over hundreds of weddings under our belt, we have the professional experience you can rely on. We are efficient in our timing, yet we can execute many different hair styles, textures, soft glam and full glam looks.

    Amazing, kind and affordable

    Kimberly was great to work with from the get go with flexible trials and even offered complimentary other trials when I hadn’t found the style I absolutely loved for my shoulder length hair. She worked well with all of my bridesmaids’ (white, mixed, and Filipino) hair textures and they held all day/night. She even did my mom’s hair last minute. She’s affordable, reliable, does beautiful hair that she makes sure you.

    March 2026 wedding

    We had a wonderful experience with Kim. She did an amazing job and truly exceeded our expectations. From the start, she was attentive to our needs and really took the time to listen to what we wanted. Her professionalism stood out throughout the entire process, and she made us feel comfortable and confident in her work. The results were beautiful, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and the quality of her work. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and professional hair stylist!

    Best decision Ever!

    Kim's expertise in wedding hair was fantastic. She did an amazing job with my hair! We did several different trials and I was being incredibly indecisive. Kim was so patient with me and was able to perfectly capture my vision. She met all my beauty needs and my bridesmaids as well. I felt like to city chic goddess when the whole look was complete. If you are looking hair that lasts all day, book with Kim!

    November 2025 Bride

    Kim was the paragon of professionalism. She brought a sense of calm confidence from the minute she walked in on my wedding morning. She did an outstanding job on my low-bun updo, and easily made some changes that I requested from our hair trial to give me the bridal look of my dreams, but I was even more impressed with the updo she pulled off for my mom. My mom has 2-3 inch long, very fine hair and Kim created an elegant, regal updo that was absolutely stunning. I could not recommend her more!
