Sara Elizabeth Artistry

Birmingham, AL
  • Starts at $200

Hi, I’m Sara, owner and lead artist of Sara Elizabeth Artistry. My love for makeup started with my own insecurities growing up, but it quickly became an incredible way for me to help others feel beautiful and confident. Though I first pursued nursing, I realized my true passion was in working with women. For over three years, I’ve had the joy of working with brides from all walks of life. I LOVE seeing the smiles and ecstatic reactions when you look in the mirror! I’m all about making your wedding day stress-free, FUN and run on time. When I’m not working, I’m a proud mom who loves traveling with my son and spending time with my cats!

Sara is the BEST!! I am so happy she was a part of my special day! She is a breath of fresh air and definitely added positive vibes to the hectic wedding morning. Sara and her team did my bridal parties makeup including MOB, MOG, and of course myself. Everyone absolutely loved their hair and makeup! My make up lasted ALL NIGHT. I was dancing and sweating, my makeup was all intact. There was no breakage or separation on my foundation. She’s super talented and you definitely would be missing out if you don’t book her for your special events. Absolutely gorgeous work. I highly recommend her to everyone!

I booked Hazel for my wedding hair and makeup along with a few bridesmaids/family and I cannot say enough good things! From the first time meeting her at the trial, she put me at ease, listened to my wants and don’t wants , and completely nailed the vision I had with little inspo pictures to go from in terms of my makeup. I was very particular about my eyebrows and she worked her magic and they never looked better ! Hazel was such a good sport during a hectic wedding morning. I was told by other hairstylist the look I wanted for my hair couldn’t be done due to the heaviness and surplus of hair I have , but she KILLED IT !!!! She is kind, funny and so very talented! 20/10!

I had an amazing experience with The Stylist Abroad! Ashley, the owner, was absolutely fantastic and was incredibly communicative for the entire process. She answered every single question right away, and gave so much insight! For the trial and on the day of my wedding, my girls and I worked with Kim (hair) and Jenna (makeup), and they were both amazing. So kind, so friendly, and clearly knowledgeable! I was deciding between two hairstyles, and Kim was happy to try both in my trial. I had a couple things I wanted to change with my makeup, and Jenna was more than happy to accommodate! I was incredibly pleased with both looks on my wedding day, and everyone looked incredible!! I was definitely very blessed with the weather on wedding day, so that also helps, but hair and makeup stayed in place fabulously! The cherry on top is that everyone was just so sweet and easy to talk to!! Made the start of the day so pleasant and relaxed, and it seems like all my girls had a great time, too! Would absolutely recommend!!

Makeup by Nicole was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding!

Henna by Heather

  • Team of 6
  • Serves Birmingham, AL for additional fees

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.

On the average day you'll find me with my hands in someones hair. I have a passion for making people feel like the best versions of themselves. Ive been doing hair for 12 years and have owned my salon, Copper for 10 of those. In 2020, I stepped out of working for a larger bridal company and launched Copper Bridal. Since opening, we have provided bridal services for over 85 brides in the Cincinnati Area.
