I could not have asked for a better wedding hair and makeup experience than I got with AW Artistry. Antonette and her team are true professionals; they were able to get my look, and all my bridesmaids' looks, exactly right. They were attentive and efficient. I had 11 people getting hair and makeup done; not only did Antonette and her team develop a highly detailed and efficient timeline, but they managed to stick to the timeline while still accommodating everyone's wishes. They truly listened to what every woman wanted and executed the looks flawlessly. They were friendly and accommodating. I have never felt more beautiful than I did when Antonette did my hair and makeup for my wedding day—I just wish she could do it every day! The makeup lasted until all day and all night (including breaking it down on the dance floor for hours). I would recommend AW Artistry to anyone looking for exceptional hair and makeup artists. They made sure me and all of my girls felt beautiful and confident.
Note: I don't have the photos from my photographer yet, but I tried to attach photos that showcased my makeup and my hair, as well as the hair and makeup of my bridal party.

other family members. They were fantastic and I would reccomend them to everyone I know!! Every single one of us felt incredibly beautiful and had an amazing time getting ready with them the morning of the wedding. They made the whole planning process so easy and a beautiful space to have the trial in as well. They do a fantastic job of highlighting each persons beauty while making sure everyone still looks like themselves. They were great to work with and I hope to use them for other events in the future!

ndividual vision.
They were amazing at listening to what each person wanted and then enhancing it with their own artistic eye and creativity. They were always willing to make small tweaks or touch-ups, and were just as great with the girls who had no idea what they wanted. Everyone felt comfortable, heard, and beautiful.
They were also extremely organized leading up to the wedding, with clear schedules and communication that made the morning run so smoothly. I had been a bridesmaid in several weddings where they were the vendor, but as the bride, knowing we were in such talented hands took so much stress off the day. They were even incredibly accommodating in allowing me a second trial to make sure every detail felt perfect.
Beyond their talent, the entire team is kind, fun, and brings such great energy to the wedding morning. We would recommend them over and over again!

my Hair and Makeup vendor was what I was most concerned about. I wanted to make sure the price was within my budget without sacrificing the outcome of the glam. Antonette and her team could not have been better. I was lucky that I knew of quite a few girls that had used Antonette’s team for their weddings prior and was blown away at how good the HMU was every single time. At my trial, I fell even more in love with Antonette and Theresa with the magic they worked. Not only are they magicians at hair and makeup, they were also able to help me figure out a weird patch of skin issues I had on my back that I was able to get cleared up before the wedding day. Antonette, Theresa, Samm, Amanda, Keziah, and Melissa were the absolute dream team. They made each one of us from bride to bridesmaids, MOB/MOG, and flower girls feel so beautiful. It’s rare to find a glam team that is able to do 16 hair services and 14 makeup services and have every single one be perfect. Truly magicians. They are the exact type of hype girls that you want to get you excited for your day of as well. Could not recommend this team any more.

I will never stop recommending them to all my friends and family. My sister in law also booked her wedding with them!

I would highly recommend Antonette White & her team!

For our wedding, we had a large bridal party of 10 bridesmaids, plus the mother of the groom, mother of the bride, and myself (bride). Antonette and her team were MAGIC and somehow had us ahead of schedule - anyone who’s been in a wedding knows you’re usually more likely to fall behind! Everyone loved their makeup looks and stayed looking fresh and beautiful all night long, even after dancing for hours. I couldn’t be happier with the service and final outcome from Antonette and her team. Thank you so much!

lutely loved working with Samm, Theresa, and Sierra. They are so talented, kind, accommodating, and laid back. I really enjoyed getting my trial done with them ahead of time so I knew what to expect on wedding day. They took their time to make sure I loved everything before leaving and even allowed my mom to do a trial with me (for an extra fee). Some of my bridesmaids were nervous about having full make up done and after they talked to the artists and saw everyone else’s done, they decided to go full glam because of how natural it still looked. Everyone looked so good!! The best part was that all of our makeup stayed on all night even after all of our dancing, sweating, and rainy day. I can’t recommend them enough!!!

to book, and Antonette was so professional, knowledgable, and knew exactly what I was asking for. She is also very fun and outgoing to work with, and I knew her and her team would be a great fit! The team did an amazing job and SLAYED our makeup and hair. My bridesmaids, the moms, and grandmas, ONLY had great things to say. They felt this was the best makeup they have ever had for a wedding; no need to change or tweak anything. The team knew exactly what they wanted for hair and makeup, and everyone looked stunning! Makeup and hair lasted all day and night! I cannot recommend Antonette and her team enough—if you want to look gorgeous in person and in photos, have hair and makeup that lasts forever, get all the compliments in the world, and all for a reasonable price, AW Artistry is the team for the job!!
