Dayna DeFazio Hair and Makeup Artistry

y experience. She was me and my party's personal stylist for the entire day. Dayna was extremely professional and discreet while staying on location with me. She made sure every detail remained perfect, and they did! I felt so special- like a celebrity!! My best friend booked Dayna and her team for her wedding last year, and I knew I would do the same. I highly recommend considering Dayna's full day package if you envision a truly memorable experience. Thank you!!!

gh the expansive photo sessions we did with not only wedding party but a second one with over 100 of our extended family on a windy rooftop! She helped keep everything (me, namely!) calm, organized, and enjoyable, and every single person she styled looked amazing. We planned our wedding in short order and I did not have a lot of ideas of what we wanted, who wanted to be styled, where, etc.  She was flexible, helpful and reassuring throughout the planning and booking process.   We started with a preview session where we talked through different options and styles and tried something a bit different from my usual look.  After trying it out, I decided it wasn’t exactly what I wanted, but she took my input, we discussed it further, and together we came up with the perfect style for the wedding day that felt completely “me.” On the day of the wedding, she did hair for five people and managed to keep everything on time without anyone feeling rushed.  My hairstyle held up incredibly well through hours of photos, movement, and very windy but beautiful weather, and it still looked polished by the end of the night. She stayed with us for several hours during the pre‑ceremony photo session, constantly checking and fine‑tuning our hair to make sure every shot looked perfect.  She didn’t just focus on hair, either—she helped adjust accessories, including fixing earrings that kept getting caught on a tulle scarf, and generally jumped in wherever needed to keep things looking good and organized. It was such a luxury to have a great “personal assistant” for the day! My sisters came in not really knowing what they wanted, and she gave them great recommendations.  She created a very different look than usual for one of them that suited her perfectly, and both of my sisters, plus my two nieces, looked terrific—everyone felt confident and looked incredible in person and in photos. Beyond her technical skill, her calm presence, attention to detail, and willingness to help with anything made her feel like part of the team rather than just a vendor.  I wholeheartedly recommend her!

d! Dayna and team communicated clearly throughout booking, trial, and wedding day. Dayna and makeup artist Kat came to my home for my trial, took feedback well during the trial and on the day of the wedding, and made my vision for my wedding day come to life. I felt like myself, but elevated, and my hair and makeup lasted all night with minimal touchups. The rest of my party also looked amazing the day of. I would work with Dayna and team again for any future needs!

nd so sweet. They all made me and my party feel so comfortable. Dayna even provided grooming for my dad, and he loved it!

ups during pictures and throughout the evening. It was amazing to have a personal stylist for such an important day.

tive of her and all her efforts in making my day so perfect!

Dayna also went above and beyond to make sure that every detail was fully covered before Wedding Day. On the day of the wedding, Dayna and her team arrived early and they did not hold us up in the least bit. They listened to all the ladies and made sure everyone was happy and touched up before they started pictures. You will not regret choosing them!

e welcomes feedback and is a perfectionist. I am so happy that I was able to book hair and makeup with Dayna - I felt very comfortable with her and I was beyond pleased with the incredible results! She is great at improvising and was able to do the impossible with my hairstyle! I received many compliments on my look, and my photos turned out great! I highly recommend her and would love to work with her again, given the chance. Thank you so much, Dayna!!

flexibility and willingness to accommodate a party of 4. She also stepped in last minute after my hairstylist got sick, and she got me right in the month before my wedding for a trial. While we didn't get the style right on the first go, she was super receptive to feedback and willing to try a few different ways of doing things. I had my heart really set on the style I had done with my first hair stylist, which I could tell wasn't her normal style, but she was willing to adjust as needed to get it right. On the day of the wedding, she did all four of us by herself, rotating us skillfully. Everyone - each with different hair textures and lengths - looked great. My hair is very wavy, frizzy, and thick and she managed to make my curls look sleek and frizz-free (though with the amount of hairspray she used, she did recommend I stay away from open flame :)).

me feel comfortable and beautiful. I highly recommend booking her for makeup services!

promptly. My hair/makeup looked wonderful throughout the festivities. I would recommend her services to anyone.

t and kind with them. Dayna stays up to date with the hair and makeup industry and is always working to better herself. She is the best of the best!

esonate with/feel really confident in. I felt very relieved upon booking with Dayna. She has a wide-range of experience and she and makeup artist Jennifer are so talented! They were organized, professional, and kind and supportive throughout the entire process. They helped me find hair extensions at the last minute (I had no experience with them before) and I am SO glad we added them to the look. I also felt like they really prioritized all of my opinions and preferences. They provided services for me, 2 moms, and 3 bridesmaids. Everything went very smoothly and timing was perfect on the wedding day. I truly thought my bridal party looked stunning. I wore a long, nearly floor-length ribbon in my hair and was pleasantly surprised that it stayed in all night and was comfortable! You will definitely not regret booking :)

keup. And I looked great at the event thanks to her. She was so friendly and easy to work with. She was also very responsive to my messages so I was able to find some time that worked for me before the event. I strongly recommend her for men's grooming.

y loved working with Dayna, she is such an artist and has a great attention to detail. Thank you Dayna!

14) has extremely curly hair that has caused her a lot of distress. The joy was evident in her face at the result of the style Dayna provided for her. Both girls had age appropriate hair and makeup and looked amazing! Despite an unfortunate bee situation that we tried to control...the day was flawless! My hair and makeup were exquisite! I can't wait to have her do my makeup again for some event! Thank you, thank you, thank you Dayna!

uge favor & stop you here. Dayna exceeded any & every expectation I had for my wedding day & 6 months later I am still swirling in gratitude over her! I am a dancer, so I have had my hair & makeup done professionally many times & I have never had an artist do such amazing work. I wanted a very "natural & bright" look for my summer wedding & that is exactly what Dayna did. She enhanced my natural features and really gave the flawless skin look. She blended the makeup so beautifully AND IT STAYED ALL NIGHT!!!! Not only was the makeup so beautiful but the hair was exactly what I had described and stayed put all night (and trust me, ya girl was out there dancing;) I receive so many compliments (to this day) of my hair & makeup from my wedding and it is all thanks to Dayna. - Dayna, thank you for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. Your kindness & bright spirit set such a special tone the entire morning of us all getting ready - you are an amazing human & I feel so lucky to have had the privilege of having my hair & makeup done by you!

ommend her!

t to truly make you feel and look beautiful! An absolute pleasure to work with!

erstand my vision and made sure every detail was perfect. Her team was incredibly professional and friendly. I highly recommend Dayna and her team for all of your wedding needs!

onal, and accommodating! I asked for a few changes from my trial hair/makeup and the outcome was even better than I had imagined! My wedding party and I looked and felt so beautiful thanks to these wonderful ladies <3 Prior to wedding day, Dayna was very responsive and helped to put together a timeline of the morning to ensure we had ample time to finish everyone’s hair/makeup! Thank you for helping to make this day so special & memorable!

ned for my hair while she added her own suggestions to help pull it together. Dayna makes sure you are happy with how everything turned out and is willing to keep trying to make sure you love how you look!
