Natalia was the makeup artist for my 2023 wedding. Words can’t describe how amazing she is and the great job she did! From the trial to the day of she was a breeze to work with. All 7 of my bridesmaids looked flawless and she even did my mom who is very hard to please and my mom said she felt the prettiest she’s looked since her wedding day. Makeup didn’t budge all day and I received so many compliments. Will book her again if I ever need makeup done for sure!

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.

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.

the suite seat

  • 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 incredibly helpful during my wedding and planning process and she was respectful, responded in a timely fashion and was able to help manage my expectations. She was an absolute pro and I would book her for any hair needs in a heart beat! She was punctual, professional, and an absolute gem to work with. Every member of my wedding party left her chair feeling gorgeous!! 10/10 would recommend!!!

Henna by Heather

  • Team of 6
  • Serves Brainerd, MN 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.

Kate and team made our wedding morning so incredible. They were fun and easy to work with. And SO good at what they do. I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup from guests and strangers alike; including a sweet girl shouting out her car window that I was the most beautiful bride she’d ever seen️ I made zero adjustments throughout the entire loooong day that even included a dress change and a whole lot of sweaty dancing. 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!!
