e. All of my bridesmaids felt beautiful, pampered, and so well taken care of.
Throughout the planning process, she was amazingly flexible. I ended up adding several people to my original quote — we had 11 people receive makeup services in total — and she had no problem adjusting. She even brought an additional artist to make sure our timeline stayed on track, and it worked out perfectly. Everyone looked stunning, and we received so many compliments on the makeup. My Maid of Honor loved her makeup so much she even hired Rachel to do her own makeup and her mom's makeup for another wedding right after mine!
I’m so grateful she was part of my day. I’d highly recommend Rachel to any bride looking for someone talented, professional, and genuinely wonderful to work with.

oked with her until the wedding day! At our wedding, we had 6 girls getting their makeup done and Rachel worked diligently to make sure we stayed on track with our timeline. All of the girls were SO happy with their makeup! My bridal makeup looked as good as it did when she first did it, at the very end of the night! We are so happy that we booked with Rachel and highly recommend her!!

ngs natural for some and providing drama to others. Rachel was very accommodating when scheduling my trial and made things so easy to adjust if needed. I didn't feel cakey and the makeup lasted the entire day. She even provided little goodie bags to me and my girls so we could touch up throughout the day if needed. Those small touches, great conversation and genuine care for what we wanted made me feel so comfortable and glad to have worked with her. Love love loved my makeup and experience with her! Plus her pricing was absolutely INCREDIBLE!

pletely nailed the natural glam I asked for. I showed her a few inspiration photos and she brought my vision to life perfectly. It was soft, elegant, and still looked like me. She also had my bridesmaids looking stunning! Rachel is not only talented but also affordable, professional, and so easy to work with. I can’t recommend her enough!

ady for pictures. She was flexible when schedules got crazy, and did I mention how reasonable her prices are?! I can’t say enough about Rachel and how many compliments I not only got on everyone’s makeup, but how KIND and easy to be around she was on a day that can quickly become stressful. Rachel is skilled to achieved any style of makeup you or your party want—everything from natural looks to full glam. My makeup lasted all day and looked incredible in all of my photos. She even sent me and my party on their way with a touch up kit with sample sizes of lip and eye colors to touch ourselves up as the day progressed. I cannot recommend Rachel enough for her wedding day makeup services!!!!
