Society 11:11 Hair & Makeup was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding day. Their communication was professional and timely throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly AMAZING - Brittany and her team are incredibly talented, professional, and knowledgeable. I was nervous about wearing a lot of makeup, but Brittany listened to everything I wanted and didn't want, and used her expertise to create a flawless look that made me feel so beautiful and confident.

Cheryl is truly so amazing! From our first message I saw how responsive she was and how much she truly cared about making my day special. I changed my timeline, amount of people, and extensions or not and she was accommodating for everything. On the actual day I changed up some things from my trial and she was able to easily execute the change. My MIL never wears makeup and Cheryl was able to do a completely natural look on her.

Alina was absolutely wonderful MUA and made me feel beautiful but still like myself. We ended up doing two make up trials because I changed what I was asking for and I was so happy I did. My makeup lasted all night, didn't move a bit, and looked amazing in person and in pictures. I also loved how Svetlana did my hair! I asked for my hair down but pinned back with soft curls and it lasted through a full day of very warm temperatures and held my long veil in no problem. 10/10 to both of these ladies could not recommend enough!!

Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

Kristin made my wedding dreams come true! I absolutely loved my hair and makeup; they were perfect and lasted all night long.

Rita and her team did a great job with the hair and makeup for my wedding in November 2024. She was very responsive during the booking process, everything was very clear and seamless. The trial went well and she made sure that I liked how everything looked. Everything on the day of the wedding looked as expected based on the trial. I hardly ever wear makeup and asked for a more natural look and it turned out perfect! I also have fine hair and was worried about having volume, but Rita was able to make my hair look thicker than it is. Both the hair and makeup lasted all night and still looked good after being done around 12pm. We had 6 people getting services and everything was done on time by Rita and her assistant, she provided a schedule so that I was able to let people know when they could arrive. I would recommend Rita to anyone looking for wedding hair and makeup services, she was a pleasure to work with. Thank you!

You WANT to book this ray of sunshine! Joie is so good at what she does. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her as both a bride and a bridesmaid, and I have loved the end result both times. Joie brings such a positive vibe to the day, and truly pampers her brides. I did two makeup previews before the wedding day, and being able to tweak things to get it just right meant Joie nailed it on the wedding day and I looked exactly how I wanted to. My makeup stayed put ALL DAY, through tears and all, and the lip touch up kit came in clutch. She and her colleague even got a *flat tire* on the way to do our makeup, and she did not let that derail the morning! She was prepared to do anything to get there. She provides such high value service and really provides a whole experience that you will be glad to have for your biggest moments. Fan for life!

I had originally booked both Hair and Makeup with Cloud & Rea Studio but due to a scheduling conflict Kelsea ended up stepping in the day of the wedding to help me and my bridal party with all our different hair looks. She was great to work with and pulled together 4 very different hair styles while dealing with different hair textures and lengths. We were able to clearly communicate our vision and she brought it to life with skill and professionalism. She also did a stellar job at the end of our getting ready session when my matron of honor still needed to get her hair done and we were running behind to get picked up. Kelsea was able to get her hair done in a fraction of the time she normally would have and it looked amazing all day. We had a late morning wedding with a late afternoon reception and everything held up for all 4 of us through the ceremony, pictures, and dancing. I would highly recommend Kelsea if you’re in the DC area.

Thank you for considering me to be part of your big day! With 14+ years of experience, I’ve seen (and tamed) it all. If you need someone to keep your hair flawless through happy tears, epic dance moves, and maybe one too many champagne toasts—I’m your girl. I travel far and wide to make sure brides look like royalty. Think of me as your fairy hair godmother—except with a curling iron instead of a wand, making sure you’re stunning well past the afterparty. My goal? To make you feel confident, radiant, and 100% you. Let’s make some magic (and great hair)!

My wife and I struggled to find somebody with not only an amazing set of skills and talent but also somebody with a fabulous personality but once we connected with Jessica, we knew we found a perfect match. She was able to create magic with my very fine but long hair and also styled my wife whose hair is very short perfectly.

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!
