Bri Soffa Makeup Artistry

feel so relaxed. We were so lucky to find her and it was even more phenomenal that she did hair and makeup for the wedding!!! Her skill set is excellent and she was on top of time the entire process. I will definitely be using her for future hair and makeup for events. But I can’t recommend her enough for how amazing she made me look and feel on my wedding day!!

) and I did not like it at all. I either had to go with what I did not like or take a gamble and luckily with a month to go, I was able to lock down Bri on short notice! I had a good feeling after reviewing her work on her website. She has great range, showcasing dramatic looks and very subtle and natural looks, the latter which I was going for. Not only was she very thorough in asking me every step of the way, before and during, what I wanted in my look, she offered very helpful tips and suggestions without totally changing my overall goals. On top of all of this, she is incredibly fun to be around on the day of!! She is super fun and funny and we had a blast. It was so amazing working with her, I highly highly recommend her. Thanks for everything Bri!

l on more mature skin as in my 75 year old mom and her 80 year old friend. Something I feel other brides might value. Also, she has all high end products and is very good with our wedding planner established timeline. Also vital to a successful and stress free wedding. I highly suggest getting a trial too, absolutely essential to managing your own expectations of your look on “the big day”.

y. She is VERY knowledgeable about the products she uses and even recommended some things to my mom and bridesmaids for them to use daily. She is GREAT at what she does and will NAIL your look! I 100% recommend her services!

ri was seriously a breath of fresh air! She listened to my concerns, brought out all my best features, and I never felt so beautiful in my life. All of my bridesmaids (7) were amazed at her work (we are all SO picky) and we danced the night away still looking fresh and gorgeous. Bri is a true artist, fun to work with, and just an all around a great experience. Hire Bri, you won't regret it! If I could give more stars I would!!!

l. My makeup was beautiful and I was really happy with how she listened to me when I told her the amount of makeup she applied at our trial was a bit too much for me. I really don't like makeup or wear much in everyday life so she worked with me to make sure it was a happy medium on the day. I could tell she was a very versatile artist. I felt beautiful on the day of and had several compliments throughout the day : ) It is really really hard to find a good makeup artist so I would go with her for her obvious talent! She's really friendly as well. There were two small things that I didn't love about the experience and I feel that, though I really liked Bri as a person, this is important for brides to know: I live in Sydney, Australia so I was only home for one week before my wedding which meant things were planned meticulously and I was BUSY! I had my trial booked with Bri at 2:00 one day which had been scheduled months beforehand, but I received a text from her about 15 minutes before the trial asking if we could meet at 4 pm that same day instead. That was all, though - no explanation or anything so I wasn't sure if that meant she was coming or just asking in case. My first reaction was that this was completely unprofessional but something important must have come up. I replied telling her I was on a pretty tight schedule and asked for other options. I had no reply for an hour and a half! I was admittedly upset and annoyed that I had wasted nearly 2 hours waiting to hear from her not knowing whether I should rearrange my day or if she would be late still! I had about 1000 other things I could have been doing in that time. Eventually, she called to tell me that her sister had gone into labor and she had to watch her nephew which is totally understandable. I didn't think, however, the communication was handled well at all and would have appreciated a sincere apology for the trouble regardless of the situation she had come up. Had she explained that she needed to reschedule from the very beginning, I would have been able to move on with my day but instead I just had silence. I later found out that her sister didn't have the baby that day so I'm not really sure if she was being completely truthful with me but I'll give the benefit of the doubt as her sister did have the baby later that week. The other thing was, on the day-of I invited all of my bridesmaids and mothers to get ready with me and socialize with me while we all got ready. Instead of getting to talk to them, Bri talked to me the entire time. She did the same with the other bridesmaids so they weren't able to socialize with the rest of the bridal party while they were getting their makeup done. That sounds a little mean since I know she was just being nice, but I would have liked to spend time with my bridesmaids who I see once a year instead of her for the hours leading up to the ceremony! Overall, I'd recommend her but would be very clear from the beginning what your expectations are : )
