I was a nervous wreck on my wedding day. Julie chatted with me and made me feel comfortable. She did the make-up for 5 people in my wedding party, in addition to myself, all in one day! I loved my hair and make-up, and she walked me through it every step of the way, really listening to my wants. She even helped with covering up an uneven tan on my back. I still use the make-up she gave me from that day even one year later. Thank you Julie!

Raven Reed | Luxury Bridal Beauty 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Merced, CA

My work can be described as elevated, intentional, and polished. Whether I am working with a bride who prefers to look more like their natural selves or a bride who is a sucker for full glam, I strive to create a luxurious experience for my clientele on their wedding day. Customizing your look with even the most subtle details can prove to be so impactful in enhancing your beauty. I can’t take all of the credit though! Your beauty inspires me— And at the core of it all, your own beautiful face is the roadmap to creating the most elevated version of yourself.

I stumbled upon Raven's Instagram during wedding planning and noticed how all of her clients looked radiant, delighted, and uniquely made up to suit each person's face. I had had a very disappointing trial run with someone else, but with no prior experience, I didn't know if that was just how professional makeup was going to feel regardless; I didn't feel like I looked like myself, and that's certainly not how I wanted to feel or look like on my special day. Once I reached out to Raven, I could tell by her warm and compassionate correspondence that this person was going to do her utmost to understand my needs/wishes. We did a trial at my home and I was immediately put at ease by her professionalism and the warmth she expressed in her emails was exactly how she was in person as well. She never judged me on my personal skincare or makeup routine and offered great insights and tips for my everyday life and in preparation for my wedding day. On my wedding day, she arrived with an assistant promptly (probably early, even!) and seeing their friendly faces eased so many of my jitters. They did my mother-in-law's makeup and hair, and I could tell by her ear-to-ear smile that she was so happy with the results. Raven's assistant even managed to put her short bob-length hair into an elegant french twist-like updo, which she never would have thought possible. Raven, once again, did her magic on my face, with even more attention to detail than the trial, and our chat during the session made me forget from time to time that I was supposed to be nervous! No surprise, I was so happy with how my makeup looked – I felt like me, but fancier and photo-ready. On top of everything, they also spruced up my husband and tidied him up before the main event as well. They mostly touched up his skin and helped him with his hair and beard, but most of all, I know he appreciated their calming and warm demeanor when he was nervous too. Do not hesitate to book Raven for your event! She's truly a wonderful person and an amazing makeup artist. She will stop at nothing to make you feel like the beautiful person you are.

Hi there, I’m Lauren! I am a Bay Area makeup artist that has been in the beauty industry for 5+ years. My signature makeup style is "soft glam" which is suitable for any anyone between natural to glam brides. Working with me as your wedding makeup artist would not only include the makeup application itself but also around the clock email/ text communication from the very beginning of the booking process to the wedding day. My main priority is to ensure you have a smooth booking process with me and a stress-free wedding morning.

I wanted to get Glam-Up for my best friend's birthday. Lauren responded super quickly after I submitted the request on her Instagram. I don't usually wear makeup and I didn't know exactly what I wanted so we discussed what type of makeup style and products that would look best and be the most compatible with my skin, hair, and outfit. She is very easy and so much fun to talk with and is very knowledgeable. She listened to what I roughly wanted and offered her advice in a considerate manner. On the day of the appointment, she was on time and kept to the schedule. She was incredibly professional, efficient, and accommodating. Everyone LOVED the result. I was OBSESSED with the look that she created. I got endless compliments on my look and people were constantly asking who the artist was. I highly recommend Lauren for any special occasions or if you just want to feel good! She definitely has a way to hype you up and make you feel gorgeous inside AND out!

Beauty stems from the inside and that’s where we start with our babes. We want our couples to feel like an elevated version of themselves. We are all about complimenting the mood and aesthetic of your wedding weekend while coming up with a custom look that brings it all together. With the mama wolf, Ash having over a decade of editorial and fashion experience, our work is more fashion-forward than “bridal”. Highlighting natural beauty above all. Because we work so closely with our photographers, we know how to help you feel photo ready while still feeling “approachable”. We are stoked to be considered for your beauty needs!

I hired Love Wolves Co for my hair and make up and had the best experience with them! Karen was my stylist and she did such an amazing job both for my engagement shoot and wedding day! As someone who never wears more than some mascara, she really allowed me to still feel natural and like myself while highlighting my features and ensuring my make up would photograph well. In fact, she did such a great job with make up for me and my bridesmaids that my step-mom (who typically hates getting her make up done) added that service day of! Knowing that my fine hair doesn’t hold well, I had Karen stay for a touch up right before my ceremony and couldn’t recommend that enough! Everyone loved working with her!

I loved working with Jasmine for my wedding hair and makeup! From start to finish, she was super professional, incredibly responsive, and a clear communicator. Her makeup looks are beautiful and I chose to go with her signature soft glam with curled hair pinned back on one side. She did a fantastic job during the trial and the day of. After the trial, Jasmine was great at asking for my feedback and incorporating it into the final look for my wedding day. She's also mindful of tailoring her approach to your specific needs to help her work last longer. Make sure to tell her about your skin type and any specific concerns, like curls falling out of your hair easily, or oily eyelids for myself which might have affected the longevity of one eye's eyeshadow. Aside from that and a couple other minor touch ups needed throughout the day (grateful for her touch up kit!), the rest of my hair and makeup stayed all night long on my wedding day. I loved my look and thought it was even better than the trial! Even though she isn't a professional hairstylist, Jasmine really nailed it with my hair. It stayed flawless all day and night, despite the dress changes and jewelry adjustments throughout the day and I received multiple compliments on my hair! She's also easy going and nice to talk to - I really enjoyed the time spent chatting with her while getting ready in the morning. It was a great, peaceful way to start the busy day. Jasmine also helped do 2 of my bridesmaid's hair and did a beautiful job. One of them said that she has a really hard time getting curls to hold, but her hairstyle lasted all night long. I'm so grateful for Jasmine's help and would recommend her to any bride looking for a talented and personable HMUA!

I had a trial run with her and she asked for feedback; did the hairstyle last long, did I want to make any changes. I appreciated that she really wanted to make sure I was happy. On the day of the wedding, she was patient with me and all my bridesmaids. Each of asking for different styles. She also ensured that my hair stayed different from everyone else’s.

My beauty journey started when I was about 4 years old.That’s when I helped myself to my mother’s lipsticks—which weren’t easy to come by in those days! I decided that day -and all days- should be Halloween, and I painted my face accordingly. As I grew, my love affair with makeup intensified. When I was a teenager, I would wear heavy, smoky eye makeup. I’ve grown out of that stage, having come to appreciate natural beauty. It’s natural beauty that I focus on now. But don’t get me wrong! I still love a wide palate of colors and working on creative photoshoots, pictorial projects, and editorial pieces.

We had a great experience with Elena and her team! We did the silver package and my best friends, mom, and I were all thrilled with the end product and experience overall. We were not a make up and hair savvy group and she easily took us through the process and went with the vibe each girl asked for. She really listened to us when we asked for a more natural look and I couldn’t have felt more beautiful on my wedding day.

I discovered Tiffany's work through Louder with Powder's Instagram, and I was immediately impressed by her natural and elegant makeup and hair styles. It was exactly what I envisioned for my wedding day! During my makeup trial months before the wedding, Tiffany was fantastic. She's down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and genuinely interested in making you feel and look your best. Her skincare recommendations were spot-on and budget-friendly, which was a lifesaver! On the wedding day itself, Tiffany not only made me look amazing but also helped ease my nerves with her warm conversation and laughter with me and my family. If you're looking to feel beautiful, natural, and stunning on your special day, I highly recommend Tiffany—promise, you won’t regret it!

With over 8 years experience & training under some of the top makeup artists in the country, I’m confident working on all skin types & tones! Creating customized looks for everyone. My favorite part of what I do is making YOU feel special:)

I cannot say enough wonderful things about SammiiglamVT! Sammantha did my makeup for my wedding in October of 2024, as well as for the mother of the bride and mother of the groom, and she absolutely nailed it. From the very beginning, Sammantha was incredibly professional and responsive in her communications, making the planning process stress-free. On the big day, she was prompt, friendly, and brought such a calming energy that we all appreciated. One thing that stood out was her attention to detail. We had done our originial trial in April, but I had a spray tan just two days prior to the wedding, and she expertly adjusted the colors for my wedding day to ensure everything was perfectly matched with my new skin tone. She walked me through every step of what she was doing, which made me feel completely at ease and confident in her work. She even had a few recommendations, that I quickly took her up on based on her years of experience. The results were stunning—our makeup looked flawless and lasted all day, through tears, photos, and dancing. She has an incredible ability to enhance natural beauty while making you feel glamorous and confident. If you’re looking for a professional, talented, and personable makeup artist, I highly recommend SammiiglamVT. She truly made my wedding day extra special! photos by Eaton Photo

Hello Gorgeous! Mia Mo is a 14 year professional cosmetologist and salon suite owner with 2 Southern California locations (Woodland Hills and Newport Beach) as well as Scottsdale Arizona.

I came across Mia when I was searching for a hairstylist for myself and my wedding party. Upon reaching out to her, the response time was really quick and she was extremely friendly, patient and thorough with all the answers to my questions. I was able to complete a trial with her and get to know her and that was really great too. She works quickly, very light handed and is so kind in person. She even gives hair growth tips and tricks and has an online shop. I used some of her hair serum for my hair and my hair has grown a few inches. All in all, I am so pleased I was able to cross paths with Mia and now will use her as my regular hairstylist.

I can't recommend Julie and Sarah from Emily Lynn & Co. highly enough! They made me and the bridal party feel like our most gorgeous selves, while still feeling comfortable and never overdone. We all got so many compliments on our hair and makeup and look great in the photos too. Julie did an amazing job working with my natural curls to make my hair feel special but still like me. Plus, they helped us all with the morning jitters and set up in my parents' home so efficiently. I'm so glad I booked them and would do so again in a heartbeat!

  • Serves Merced, CA for additional fees

There is nothing more satisfying than to make a client feel their very best on their special day. Im a dental hygienist during the week but on the weekends Im passionate about getting brides and their families and friends look their very best. I specialize in airbrush makeup, I personally feel that it’s best for special days because it’s long lasting and doesn’t rub off on your clothes or on others. As for hair, I enjoy creating romantic, intricate styles and I pride myself in being able to recreate anything you show me. Everyone is beautiful, sometimes we just need a little magic to make our beauty shine.

I had the pleasure of working with Lety and her team for my daughter's Quince. Lety was a pleasure to work with and really listened to what my daughter wanted. I would definitely use Lety again in the future for our other events!
