Noelle is awesome! She clearly cares a lot about her business / customer service, and was very quick and generous in correcting a couple of minor hiccups that came up during our hair/makeup trial process. She was a pleasure to work with and I loved how my bridal hair/makeup came out! My friends were happy with the other hair and makeup artists who she worked with on the day as well.

Kara (MU) and Erin (Hair) did such an amazing job even with me being a bride and changing my mind a few times with the look. they took care of me and my 7 women so perfectly the day of the wedding, were on time, and I would recommend them to anyone in the south haven area.

I recently had the pleasure of getting new-to-me services at Alder: my wedding hair (Kristen) and makeup (Anne). Two of my bridesmaids and also my mom (she was with Kayleigh) had their hair and/or makeup here. For my makeup trial, I had no clear idea what I wanted. The trial was fine, but afterwards I realized I didn’t love it and Anne was very gracious about letting me do another trial, and made me feel 0 guilt about it, and as the person who is forever convinced that I’m a burden, I am so, so grateful for that. Second trial went great and I loved the look. Felt very much like myself but better! For hair, I had a particular look in mind, and the trial went amazing and was everything I wanted! My actual wedding day was on a weekday and my party was small, so our hair and makeup were done at Alder (they will go on site if you have a minimum number of people) which was a relief to me because my venue’s getting ready area was not well lit, and Alder’s decor is always on point. We had some hiccups about appointment time (I forgot to factor in the fact that my venue was an hour away from the studio and my bridesmaids scheduled independently) but Kristen, Anne, and the Alder team were accommodating and again, didn’t make me feel like a burden even though I 100% should have scheduled all the appointments at the same time to avoid that problem in the first place. I’m not perfect! They even let us bring in breakfast while getting ready and it was just an all around good time. I felt like a princess, and my bridesmaids and mom looked so gorgeous!.

Aubrey and Christina were absolutely wonderful for me and my bridesmaids. I did a bridal hair and makeup trial as well as hair and makeup on the day. A few bridesmaids got their hair and/or makeup done. We were looking for someone who could do a more natural look as me and my girls are not everyday makeup-wearers so we wanted someone who could make us comfortable in wedding makeup. After a bridal trial with a bit of a heavy bridal makeup look, Aubrey was able to completely pivot and change my look based on feedback from the trial. I could not have been more happy with my makeup or hair on the day of! She was able to do a unique look for each of the girls that was in tune with their own features and style. Both women were very fun and peppy, making getting ready such a great experience. They both had wonderful attitudes and really listened to what we wanted. I would definitely recommend them!

I am incredibly passionate about what I do as a Makeup Artist. Making Women feel beautiful is truly my purpose and my passion! It will always be all about your transformation for me. Let me be the one to get you ready and enhance your look just because or for a special event!

Samantha was so great to work with from the second I reached out to her. I was unsure about hiring a makeup artist at first because I am extremely particular, and quite frankly wasn’t in my wedding budget. But after seeing pictures of her work, I was shocked at how flawless she her clients look. I was hooked and had to try. But upon deciding, she was very patient with all my questions, concerns, and my most favorite thing was she was not the slightest bit pushy when I told her I wanted to think about it. Her professionalism and patience was superb and her talent is perfection through and through! She listened to exactly what I wanted, I even spoke up about a slightly different look and she was very receptive and didn’t try to sway me otherwise. And I was very pleased with the outcome! She takes her time which I believe is important, and I had several compliments on my makeup for both my engagement photos and wedding day. I plan on booking her for a few upcoming events next year, and looking forward to working with her again! Do yourself the favor and schedule a consultation with her! I promise you will not be disappointed!
