I used One Salon & Bridal for my wedding day hair and make up for me and 15 others! Everybody at One Salon & Bridal was extremely helpful and communicative!! From day 1, I felt like I was in good hands for my wedding hair and make up. The team was willing to make things work - however I needed them to work! For example, we didn't know at first if we would get ready at the salon or my venue but I was able to talk things out with Michelle and we came up with an action plan to get everybody ready in time! I was able to have a few of our close family members get hair and make up done with us, because the salon had all hands on deck for my wedding day! It was great working with everybody and I am so thankful for how easy they made this process! My hair and make up held up ALL night long and I felt so beautiful!! Thank you all :)

At Kiss This Makeup, we believe in the transformative power of beauty. Whether you’re preparing for your wedding day or a special occasion, our goal is to enhance your natural beauty and create a look that reflects your unique style and personality. From timeless classics to modern trends, our talented and passionate beauticians are here to bring your vision to life. We offer makeup artistry, hair styling, and beauty assistance with a specialized team for all special events covering South & Central Florida, Dallas, along with Chicago and surrounding suburbs.

Kiss This Makeup did a WONDERFUL job with my wedding hair and makeup, as well as hair and makeup for my wedding party. I have very fine, straight hair that has a difficult time holding a curl, but Jenna Marie was so open-minded and willing to work with me on finding solutions that would work well for me. My hair help up for the entire wedding (including through Hurricane Helene!!) and was so beautiful. I was unsure what I was looking for as my hairstyle, but Jenna helped me narrow down my options and advised based on my face shape, dress, and overall vibe of the wedding. My makeup was so beautiful, and didn't irritate my sensitive skin at all and left me with no breakouts! It lasted the entire day and looks beautiful in my photographs. Jenna and Nicole also did the hair and makeup of my wedding party, and everyone was in love with their looks, and looked great the whole day. KTM was very flexible when I last minute had a family member ask if they could get their makeup done, and the team was able to adjust the schedule to accommodate her. Additionally, we have many LGBTQ members of our wedding party, and KTM was nothing but lovely and welcoming to all. They really went above and beyond, and I have never felt so beautiful in my whole life. I will never forget how special and stunning KTM made me feel for the entire getting-ready process, and how well-organized they were, which left me feeling no stress about how the getting-ready part of the day would go, and also feeling confident that everyone would look great throughout the entire event. I would highly recommend Kiss This Makeup to anyone who is looking for the best service and stunning results for their wedding or any event. Much love!!

Alexis was absolutely amazing!! She was our hair and makeup artist for my wedding this Saturday and when I say she KILLED it!! Aside from her AMAZING hair and makeup skills… We had a few bumps in the road so my mom and I weren’t able to make it to the venue until after my scheduled time for both hair and makeup. As you can imagine, I was definitely panicking about our ceremony starting in less than two hours from the time of my arrival. When I finally made it, I felt SO much better as I realized that Alexis made sure that all of my bridesmaids were on track as far as hair and makeup while I was gone. She completed my hair and makeup beautifully with time to spare for my mom’s hair and makeup. She even managed to squeeze in another makeup service for one of my guests. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone that I know who may be needing a hair or makeup service. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and she is so SO sweet!! I could not thank her enough for everything she helped with the morning of our wedding

Erin and her girls were amazing from the moment I first reached out. Erin was always quick to respond and was super helpful with the entire planning process. Before my trial, Erin had looked up my social media so she already knew my vibe (simple and elegant). I showed her a few pictures and she had great ideas for the hairstyle. She helped me find the perfect hairpiece that made me confident I didn't want a veil. A few weeks before our wedding, we realized we were going to have a time crunch and within a few hours (late on a Monday evening), Erin added two girls to help so we wouldn't be stressed for time. Cassie did all of our hair and my make up. She was fast, efficient and very down to earth. Micaela helped with pre curls and she already seemed like she was a pro. Kylie did makeup for my bridesmaids and they all looked gorgeous. I cannot say enough great things about Erin & her crew. You won't regret booking with them.

It took me months to find a MUA for my wedding. When I found Nancy I was so impressed but nervous only because of my past experiences getting make up done. Nancy made me feel so comfortable, and listed and explained everything during my trial. I kept thinking like - everything could go wrong on the wedding day, but at least my makeup was going to look BOMB. Also, my MOH does not wear any make up. I was so worried because she was one of those “only a little of this and that” but Nancy did such an amazing job, my MOH was so happy! Looking back at my pictures, I love every single one of them, thanks to Nancy! I can not recommend her enough!
