Not only are Jordan and Sam extremely talented, they are also kind and accommodating people. It was so nice sitting and chatting with both of them for my trial and on my wedding day. When I sat down in Jordan’s chair to get my makeup done, it felt like catching up with an old friend. If I didn’t live on the other side of Michigan, I would DEFINITELY want to be friends with them. They truly are nice, talented people and I am so happy I booked them. They were definitely my favorite vendor to have and work with for our wedding.

On the day of, the quality of their work was great and the looks lasted beautifully throughout the entire event. They were also flexible in meeting us at our hotel to provide the services, which was incredibly convenient. We were able to treat our mothers to a hair and makeup moment and our bridal party loved the results and not having to worry about their looks for the day. Everyone felt beautiful and confident. While the final looks were still stunning, we felt they didn't fully understand our vision - the bridal hair trial didn't fully translate, and the bridal makeup ended up more neutral than the requested pinky/peach tones with less dramatic eye makeup than planned. Overall though, it was a great value and we were happy with how everything turned out.
