Mary was the perfect choice for mine and my bridesmaid's makeup for my wedding! She was very responsive to all of my questions and I felt very confident following my makeup trial with her prior to the wedding day. Everyone loved our makeup the day of and Mary finished all 8 of our looks in plenty of time. We all highly recommend MaryMouabeauty for your wedding makeup needs!

STUDIO x SARAH 

5.0

  • Starts at $440
  • Serves Elgin, MN
  • Offer

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.

Had some difficulty with communication in the beginning since I was in Utah planning a wedding for Minnesota, but Sarah was always willing to answer my questions and provide the additional clarity I needed to calm my nerves as well as ensure I was understanding all services provided. The contract could use a little work since that’s where most of my confusion stemmed from, but not a deal breaker. Sarah was personable and fun for our trials and actual day of application, all my bridesmaids enjoyed their looks and how easy it was to ask for personal tweaks to our looks. Highly recommend!

Betsey McKenzie founded Luminous Beauty in 2015 to provide expert and inclusive beauty services for everyone. She has been a part of the the beauty industry for over a decade and continues to work to stay at the top of her fields. Her greatest joy is helping others discover their own beauty.

Betsey at Luminous Beauty did an incredible job on my makeup on my wedding day. She even beat me to the church and was ready and waiting for me! I felt like my best self and was in love with the look she gave me. It was a nearly 90 degree day in July in a church with no air conditioning and my makeup never dripped or moved. I even hopped on a plane that night to Florida (so moist!) And my makeup still looked great, I kept getting compliments! If you want to look amazing and feel amazing you HAVE to hire Luminous Beauty for your special day (or really any day you want to look extra fabulous!). You won't regret it!

Ashley Larae MUA

  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Elgin, MN for additional fees

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 

5.0

  • Serves Elgin, 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 is the absolute best of the best!! From my very first email with her until the day of the wedding, she was nothing but kind, punctual, professional, and everything in between. Not to mention, she did an incredible job on not only my hair, but on all 5 of my bridesmaids as well. Everyone's hair looked amazing, and stayed that way all night! I would recommend Kristy over and over again!

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!

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!!
