This is long overdue but needed to write a review about what a wonderful job Brandi did for my makeup! I don’t like wearing a lot of makeup normally, but she was able to help find ...
a good balance to make the day feel a bit more special. She also knew how to apply makeup that would last through heat and humidity and was affordable (major pluses)! I loved that I was able to have a test run before the day and she had all her questions answered then, because once the big day began, it was completely stress-free. She was also so professional in her timing and knew exactly how long she needed for the bridal party. It was wonderful to work with her and would recommend her, which is why I needed to write a review!

Brandi was an amazing hair stylist for my wedding! I booked her about a year out and had my trial 11 months ahead of time. She was very responsive to my trial and listened to my f...
eedback. On the wedding day she arrived promptly and ready to go. Mine and my girls hairs turned out fantastic and held up for ~10 hours, well into the night. She was very communicative throughout the months leading up to the event, as well as on the day-of. Her prices were reasonable as well, 10/10 would recommend

went on to meet again for wedding trials and on the big day she did not disappoint. Both makeup and hair were flawless all night and I loved her so much that I now drive an hour and a half out of my way to be a regular customer at her salon as well!

was looking at...she was instrumental in helping me pick the right size and shape for the style we were going for. She showed up right on time on the wedding day with everything she needed. She also made time to do one of the groom’s family members hair after I was all done. I would highly recommend Brandi. She’s good at what she does, easy to relate to, and very professional. Thanks Brandi...from the Couch family!!!

Brandi was recommended to me by our day-of coordinators and I’m so glad I decided to work with her. I was late to our trial and she was still very kind and patient, dedicating more...
than two hours to talking through all the details of the natural look I envisioned for my wedding day. We tried different lipstick colors and tested false eyelashes, which was a first to me, and she made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. When it came to hair, I was blown away by how beautifully she designed what I’d envisioned, which is no small feat because my hair is fine and thin. My wedding day was no different—Brandi arrived right on time, took excellent care of me, and made sure I looked and felt beautiful. She also did hair for my sister and two little nieces, and she was very patient with the girls, talking them through fun options for their makeup (pink glitter eyeshadow!) and hairstyles that were doable for their ages. I brushed their hair, otherwise she took care of everything for them. My hair and makeup stayed flawless all night, even with all the dancing I did, and the look was beautiful in all of our wedding photos! If it’s important to you to have a worry-free, natural look, I highly recommend working with Brandi!
Brandi was a great choice from the moment I met her. She's organized and everything from the trial to the timeline was well thought out and executed. We ran over on time with one p...

i played around with a few styles and took my mom's thoughts and opinions into consideration to come up with a style she was happy with. She did the same for me as well!
Brandi did an excellent job with my hair and makeup. She also did the bridesmaid's hair and with their varying hair types, she nailed all 3 perfect.

ed. She helped me feel like my most beautiful self on my wedding day. My bridesmaids felt special getting their hair done and my mom felt beautiful and confident with her hair and makeup on my big day as well. Brandi was easy to work with, on time, and even helped my bridesmaids with some last minute false lash add-ons the day of our wedding. She's attentive and listened to what each of us envisioned for our services and made sure that we were happy with the results.
Brandi and Lina did hair/makeup for seven women (including myself) at my wedding, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park. I even slightly switched up the look I was going f...

rdo 2 months before the wedding and Brandi did an excellent job. Even though I didn't get to see the hairstyle on me, I absolutely loved how it turned out. Also, my makeup made me really like the wedding pictures. Brandi showed up early at the venue and made it a stress free event. We all had so much fun. Thanks so much!
