Sara Elizabeth Artistry

  • Serves Cottondale, AL

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 was so precise and paid attention to the smallest details. She found the perfect shades to flatter my skin tone, along with the entire bridal party. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to her! My bridesmaids even said they have never felt more beautiful in their own skin. Sara is so fun to be around. Not only was her work a 10/10, but her personality is a 10/10 as well. She kept conversations going, she joked around with everyone, and she had such a presence with the bridal party. I will always be thankful for her on my big day. It wouldn't have been as amazing without her!

Rita Lorraine Makeup

  • Starts at $325
  • Serves Cottondale, AL for additional fees

Not long ago, I was studying to be an opera singer. Yup! Quite the career change, I know. Truthfully, I have loved makeup since I was 12 years old, when I saw my cousin get her makeup done for her wedding. From that point on, I knew that one day I wanted to make women feel as beautiful as she felt. The moment I do the "final reveal" is what I LIVE for ❤️ The moment when you feel absolutely beautiful; the moment that it all becomes real- you're getting married!

Lorraine did my makeup for my wedding in October 2022 and she was awesome. She gave me a free trial to make sure we were a match for each other, and she nailed my bridal shoot makeup AND my wedding day makeup. Felt BEAUTIFUL!!!

Henna by Heather

  • Team of 6
  • Serves Cottondale, 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.

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. As of January 2023, I am bringing my bridal styling to Alabama and I hope to set a new standard for bridal hair in Auburn/Opelika and Lake Martin areas.

I'm a professional makeup artist with 9 years and counting of experience!

I specialize in bridal makeup, but also do a lot of work for photographers, formal dances, and other special events!

I was so excited when I learned that Olivia with OO Artistry was available for my wedding date. She’s a pleasure to work with and always quick to respond to messages. She’s very talented! We did a makeup trial run the month before the wedding. The day of the wedding, she did an AMAZING job on my makeup and my bridesmaids’ makeup. I absolutely LOVED mine. I highly recommend OO Artistry!
