Awarded Best of Zola
Ascendance Productions LLC was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Jackie, the lead makeup artist, was a true professional who responded quickly to all of our inquiries and kept us organized throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, Jackie demonstrated her passion for her craft and the quality of her work - my makeup looked flawless and natural, and I received compliments on it all evening. We even had some extra time remaining, and Jackie was able to spend additional time ensuring I looked my absolute best. The second artist who came to help with the bridesmaids' hair was also very kind and professional, though she did seem a bit rushed at times. Some of the bridesmaids hair did not stay and required some extra hairspray and re-curling before the ceremony. Overall, Ascendance Productions LLC was a tremendous value and I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for top-notch beauty services for their special day.

STUDIO x SARAH

  • Starts at $440
  • Serves Brainerd, MN

Since the beginning, hair and make-up has been my passion as well as being “upside down.” It has been on my mind and a fiber of my being since four years old. I was cartwheeling into hair and makeup for friends and family. Just an active, outdoorsy gal that loves to enhance all beauty.

Sarah did an amazing job on my hair and makeup for my wedding! During my trial we were able to talk about what I was looking for and she really took my thoughts and examples into consideration. She also had great suggestions on how to make my hair look more full which looked amazing. Sarah is very kind and anyone would be lucky to have her as their stylist.

Glow with Dej 

5.0

  • Team of 4
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Brainerd, MN

Hello, my name is Dejanira and I am a Twin Cities makeup artist. Something that separates me from the rest is that my style is very natural and radiant. When people think of natural they think light coverage but that is not the case. I provide the coverage you want but the finished look will not appear to be layers upon layers. What you and others will see is healthy glowing look, it will feel as if you are barely wearing anything at all. My goal is to have you look in the mirror and notice that it still looks like you but with a little extra glam.

I have to say if you want natural looks and beautiful hair to match, this place is the best all in one. My skin never looked better and it was everything I could have ever wanted. I highly recommend them for whatever you may need, especially for your wedding.

MAKEUP ARTIST ONLY Hello! My name is Ashley. I am a professional Minneapolis makeup artist with over eight years of experience. I worked for MAC cosmetics for almost 4 years and that is where I grew as a professional makeup artist. After working for MAC, soaking up all the trainings, learning from the best of the best and doing makeup on many clients, I knew I had what it took to venture off and start my own business. So, I did it afraid: In 2018 I started my own freelance makeup business-Ashley Larae MUA LLC. I couldn’t have done it without my faith in God.

Ashley did my makeup for my maternity/boudoir shoot. I gave her freedom to do whatever she wanted on me as I love makeup. She absolutely nailed the look and made me feel so flawless and beautiful. Ashley is so personable and really pays attention to detail while doing your makeup. I could not recommend her more and can’t wait for another excuse to get my makeup done by her. Thank you Ashley!

the suite seat 

5.0

  • Serves Brainerd, MN for additional fees

One of my favorite parts of working with brides is putting to rest all of their fears about why they might not be able to have the style they’re envisioning to complete their look. Hair too fine, not long enough, won’t hold a curl… I’ve heard it all. And I love the look on my bride’s face when we work together to make her “impossible” vision come to life. I consider it a high honor to style a bride for a day in which she’ll be memorialized in photos for all time. When you’re in the suite seat, i promise you’ll love what you see in those photos. Enough about me. Let’s talk about your hair!

Kristy was the best!! She had a great setup to do my trial in downtown St Paul. She is so easy to connect with. She does a great job collaborating with you on what the final hairstyle should look like. She also helped me coordinate the final timeline with my makeup artist which was a huge help. On the day of the wedding, Kristy was prompt, professional, yet super fun and made the morning relaxing, yet productive! She kept us all on track with our timeline and made sure we went to the wedding all looking fabulous!! I’d highly recommend Kristy to any bride!

Awarded Best of Zola
WarPaint International was the beauty team for my wedding day and what a well oiled machine they are! We had 13 people getting hair and makeup services, which could have easily become chaos, but because of the personalized schedule they created for us, the communication before, during, and after the booking process, and the ample amount of artisans they were able to provide everything went off without a hitch. When arriving at my venue the team was already there set up and ready to go! We definitely felt like royalty walking into our own personal glam team. Wendy did my hair and spent extra time perfecting my retro glam waves, making sure I was 100% happy with my look. Mia, Mariah, & Keely helped with the bridal party and everyone looked so beautiful and classy! If there were any adjustments to be made, these ladies got right to work without complaint to make sure everybody was satisfied with their services. You can tell this team is passionate about their work and have a lot of experience in wedding beauty. My recommendation would be to book well in advance so you don't lose your chance to work with them!

The entire atmosphere was fun and relaxed which is really underrated for your wedding morning. I would absolutely recommend the to anyone looking for HMU for wedding!!
