I had an amazing experience with The Stylist Abroad! Ashley, the owner, was absolutely fantastic and was incredibly communicative for the entire process. She answered every single question right away, and gave so much insight! For the trial and on the day of my wedding, my girls and I worked with Kim (hair) and Jenna (makeup), and they were both amazing. So kind, so friendly, and clearly knowledgeable! I was deciding between two hairstyles, and Kim was happy to try both in my trial. I had a couple things I wanted to change with my makeup, and Jenna was more than happy to accommodate! I was incredibly pleased with both looks on my wedding day, and everyone looked incredible!! I was definitely very blessed with the weather on wedding day, so that also helps, but hair and makeup stayed in place fabulously! The cherry on top is that everyone was just so sweet and easy to talk to!! Made the start of the day so pleasant and relaxed, and it seems like all my girls had a great time, too! Would absolutely recommend!!

We had the pleasure of working with Maria and Natalie for our wedding weekend. They both did a fabulous job at makeup and hair and were more than capable of delivery beautiful looks and services for me (the bride) and all six of my bridesmaids, plus my mother-in-law! They were on time, thorough, and kind with everyone and were so communicative in making sure everyone felt 100% beautiful and satisfied.

I reached out to Aida because I had a photoshoot coming up and wanted my makeup done. She was able to accommodate the day and location. She was running a little late but made sure to communicate that with me and was able to get me done by the time I needed. I love the look!

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.

If I could give more stars I would! Kristin was such a treat to work with. Not only does she do an AMAZING job with makeup, she is honestly such a sweet person. She made the day even more special and I was honored to have her a part of it. She was kind and sweet and open to ideas. Everyone in my family loved her. Makeup wise, she is awesome! My makeup stayed on all day! We got married in Luray Caverns and took photos by the willow trees, it was hot but the makeup stayed on and still looked amazing. If you need a makeup artist for your big day, Kristin is your girl! Thanks so much for being a part of my day!

I cannot thank Kara and the BFF team enough for their help with my wedding day. I had two trials with another company that left me so worried about my day of look. Just three weeks before the wedding I decided I needed to go in a different direction. I called Kara up in a panic hoping she would be able to help with my short notice wedding on a holiday weekend. Kara was so communicative and helpful during this time. She listened closely to my previous experiences and my beauty vision. She reached out to her team and was able to find two amazing artists who would be available to help. They scheduled a trial for the next week and the trial was perfect! I was again so excited for my big day knowing I was in the right hands. Kris gave me amazing waves that lasted through the heat and humidity of the entire day and night. Priscilla gave me a soft makeup look with the most comfortable lashes I have ever worn. Together they created my dream glam and I could not be more grateful. If you are considering hiring the BFF team for your wedding you will not regret it. They are knowledgeable, communicative, and truly care about their clients. They will be able to give you your dream glam look too. Thank you Kara, Kris and Priscilla

I found Eunice and thankfully, someone on her team was available. They were so reasonably priced, so responsive, did an amazing trial and short notice, and then day of she even fit in someone extra.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsea and Alena made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. Kelsea chatted with me via Zoom to get an idea of what the day was going to be like and the look I was going for. I did a trial at Kelsea's studio in Virginia and I got to hang out with her adorable pup while she brought my vision to life and asked me lots of helpful questions. She then took feedback from the trial so that Alena, who was my artist on my wedding day, could execute a perfected version of the trial look. My hair isn't the easiest to work with because it's very straight and fine, but Alena got it to hold its waves all night without it feeling gross and weighed down by product. She also accentuated the purple highlights I got done shortly before the wedding to match my flowers flawlessly so that the purple showed through without being overpowering. She checked in every step of the way while doing my makeup and made sure I was good with the shades that she picked. I don't usually wear a lot of makeup so I was worried about not feeling like myself, but Kelsea and Alena achieved the perfect balance between looking glamorous, but still natural. I didn't have a bridal party, but Alena did my mom's hair and makeup as well and she looked beautiful. Cannot recommend Artistry by Kelsea enough!

As for my makeup, my skin has never looked so flawless! All night everyone commented on my makeup, saying it was pristine. It lasted all through the night.

I wanted a nice natural looking glow for my wedding day—nothing too dark or “fake” looking. Blaire chose the perfect color for my skin and it made me feel so confident and beautiful on my wedding day! When I booked the appointment, she sent me pre-treatment care to follow so that I would have the most even tan. During the spray tan, I felt so comfortable in front of her and she walked me through every step of the way. At the end, she applied delicious scented powder to keep my tan even and reviewed the post-care instructions with me. The next day, she checked in with me to make sure everything was perfect—which it was. I couldn’t have been more pleased with my tan. I’ve had spray tans in the past that had a funny smell too and this spray tan did not. It also didn’t rub off/transfer into my wedding dress which was something I was worried may happen. 10/10 would recommend a spray tan from Blaire for your big day!

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!!

As a musical theatre performer, I loved makeup – the cakey, heavy stage looks, not as much. Then, at my own wedding, I found myself in a similar predicament: heavily made up to the point of not looking entirely like myself. I dedicated myself to honing my passion for natural makeup artistry for beauty, bridal, film and TV, perfecting my craft and learning from industry experts. My work has been featured in respected platforms such as Washington Family Magazine, the Emmy Awards, and DCW50 (DC's CW Network). Now, I create timeless, skin-forward makeup looks that put my clients’ natural beauty center stage.

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW! Kiley absolutely blew me away with the look she was able to achieve for my wedding. As a no-makeup girlie, I was quite nervous to wear any on the big day and not feel like myself. Her consultation process is extensive because her attention to detail on every wish you want is spot-on. I told her I wanted a bit of pop of color possibly on my lips but overall just wanted to enhance my beauty with soft pink tones. I highly, highly recommend doing the trial session first because it helped us realize what colors looked good on me and how much makeup I actually wanted on. She is an expert at applying individual fake lashes which 1) helped me not bleed mascara down my face when I cried and 2) looked stunning without looking unnatural! After the trial, I emailed her some of my thoughts and she executed my vision perfectly on the actual day. She also made my mother and maid of honor look absolutely gorgeous; we all felt so confident and beautiful all day long! Most of all, she was just such a sweet presence the day-of and the whole planning process. I am so incredibly appreciative of Kiley's artistic gift and cannot recommend her enough!!!

She had a colleague take care of makeup for me and my bridesmaids since my hair was so extravagant, but her colleague did a great job, too. The bright picture is shortly after they finished, and the night picture is many hours later and the makeup held wonderfully with no touch ups. I also got so many compliments on the hair!

Hi, I'm Holly, owner of Adorn Salon, opened Adorn Salon when I was 22, in 2017 and I never looked back. I have been a licensed Cosmetologist since 2014, I started as a receptionist and assistant which crucial in understanding the ins and outs of owning my own salon. Over the years I have practiced my trade for countless hours and have been blessed enough to receive multiple accolades and have been published In multiple magazines in Virginia. My passion lies in dimensional color, Bridal Styling, and educating my clients on their specific hair needs. 

I could not say enough positive things about Adorn Salon for wedding hair and makeup. They transformed me into a blonde barbie doll and I had guests saying weeks after the wedding that they were amazed out how my hair stayed so curled and my makeup stayed on so perfectly the entire night. I had a trial and completely changed my hair for the wedding day and Holly was super flexible with the change and did not mind. I had 12 bridesmaids who all had different hair colors/types and skin tones and they transformed every single one of them and they all looked incredible and were very happy with the final outcome. I will posts more photos once I get them from my photographer! Highly recommend and I can't wait to use them for haircuts/dyes in the future.

PLEASE DIRECT ALL INQUIRIES TO MY WEBSITE Born & raised an "Air Force Brat," Christine has lived in various places from California to Germany. From a young age she knew she wanted to work in the beauty industry & followed her dreams by receiving her cosmetology license & attending the master class at the prestigious Make Up For Ever Academy in NYC. Working with brides has brought Christine so much joy, being involved in such an important part of someone’s life long memories is more than just makeup. Wedding days pass in the blink of an eye but the way you felt, and the photos you hang on your walls, will last a life time.

LOOK NO FURTHER, CHRISTINE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! I feel so lucky to have found Christine for my wedding makeup because she was everything I was looking for and more! I did a makeup trial with someone else that went terribly and was scrambling to find a new makeup artist less than two months before my wedding. I am truly so grateful I found Christine. Her talent speaks for itself, just check out her Instagram page (https://www.instagram.com/christinecouturecormier/). I had my first video consultation with Christine the day after I found her, and we discussed what went wrong with the first person and what I was hoping to achieve for my wedding day look. Not only was it clear that she knew what I was looking for, but she also had amazing ideas about the entire makeup experience on my wedding day that I hadn’t even thought of. Your makeup artist is SO important because you’ll have these photos forever and they’re the first vendor you interact with so they help set the mood for the day. Christine was an incredible presence the whole time she was there. She and the second makeup artist Lindsey made me and my entire bridal party look and feel amazing! Christine made incredible content with me and my bridal party and she was also there for my first look. She was the perfect calming presence I needed for the most exciting but stressful moment of the day. She helped fluff my dress and took photos and videos I was able to have immediately after the first look. You want to feel confident that your makeup artist is going to make you look and feel amazing, and I promise you can trust Christine with that! My guests were raving about my makeup! I felt done up and more special than my everyday makeup, but I still felt and looked like myself. Also the makeup lasted all night long! She is worth every single penny!! If you pick Christine to be your makeup artist you will not regret it!

A luxury beauty experience for the modern woman! My beauty philosophy is simple, "When you look good you feel good. When you feel good you do better".I started Nina Renee beauty because I believe that we all deserve to have the celebrity-style beauty experience of our dreams. As a high-end makeup artist servicing some of Washington DC's most prestigious residents for over eight years, I always found it hard to find my "Glam team".

I am so glad that I chose Nina Renee Beauty for my wedding day. From the very beginning, Nina had so many ideas and was willing to answer all of my super specific questions. I am an admirer of makeup and hair, with little experience lol. I really just shared my vision with Nina and she let me know what I needed! They completely over delivered on quality of work and customer service!! I also highly recommend their hair extension rental. So easy and the extensions really amplified my hairstyle. By the way! My bridesmaids all felt that this was their favorite hair and makeup experience!

Quanisha always loved makeup, and as a child, to hone her skills her mother would allow her to practice on her during her evening naps. However, after graduating from makeup school with a makeup artistry certificate, she was disappointed to see makeup looks created without the personalization of the client's character and personal style. So, in 2018, attended Gwynnis Mosby Makeup Training center located in Tucker, GA soon after, Quanisha began her makeup artistry freelancing business called Quanisha Moody Makeup Artistry.

Quanisha’s skills are unmatched, I was the Maid of Honor for our wedding party and she went above and beyond for our big day. The bride, myself, and our mother received exactly what we each asked for; from simple light makeup to full glam. Quanisha and her husband were so kind and funny; she came very well prepared with printouts of our inspiration photos and asking us simple questions throughout the process to assure we received our desired looks! I couldn’t recommend Quanisha more for weddings or any other events you are considering a professional makeup artist for. Thank you again!!!
