About Brides by Jackie Fanara

Brides by Jackie Fanara

Jackie Fanara, Owner

I help brides create a look that captures their personal style and makes them feel like the most polished version of themselves. Because there's nothing more beautiful than a confident bride smiling from ear to ear just before they say, "I do."

I have more than fifteen years of experience in fashion, editorial, celebrity, and commercial work that has been featured in publications like Vogue, Vanity Fair, New York Magazine, People, V Magazine, and The Cut. Bringing that expertise to bridal work has not just allowed me to further refine and strengthen my skills—it's given me the opportunity to bring an elevated, A-list experience to my brides.

Perfect Hair Perfect Day

Working with Jackie was exactly what I needed for our wedding day. Her communication style was direct, funny, and calming - exactly what a nervous bride needs! The quality of her work was exacting, excellent, and absolute perfection. Jackie was always available for touch-ups and discreetly in the background making sure my hair looked flawless for every photo, even when I was on the dance floor all night. She also was able to understand my style and knew that I wanted a lived in look that was natural and not overdone and she delivered on every note. I can't recommend Brides by Jackie Fanara enough - Jackie truly helped make our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be. My photos are what I remember most and the hair is absolute perfection.
Look no further- Jackie is the BEST!

Last month I got married at The Sanctuary on Roosevelt Island, and I had the pleasure of working with Jackie. She was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish- it felt like hanging out with an old friend! She is so incredible at making her clients feel comfortable, listened to, and pampered. She went completely above and beyond- when the bridal party was finishing photos outside and it started pouring, she got SOAKED while shielding my bridesmaids and making sure everyone was able to get safely from the park to the vehicles to inside the venue. She literally used herself as a shield and then proceeded to to help everyone get touch ups while they dried off- by the time the ceremony had started, no one would have had an idea that everyone had been rained on. By the end of the day, she was everyone’s best friend. She was an angel that day and I am so thankful she was my artist. If you’re looking for an incredibly talented artist who will charm you with her positive attitude and incredible sense of humor- Jackie is your gal.
Natural hair & makeup that lasts and pops!

Jackie is talented, knowledgeable and easy to work with. She is an expert when it comes to achieving a natural hair and makeup style that looks effortless and lasts through all kinds of weather. Jackie is organized and communicative. Most of all, she is a breath of fresh air to calm the nerves and have a little fun during a generally stressful time. If you want to look amazing, feel confident and leave nothing to chance, work with Jackie!
