erience. We had 2 brides and he couldn’t have been more inclusive to us. He was on time, got us done quickly, and was very kind to everyone involved. Highly recommend.
Rick was awesome to work with- I had 11 girls who all got airbrush makeup, and he got every girl through in such a timely manner and looking gorgeous. My makeup was still beautiful...
the next day and stayed put through lots of laughing and a decent amount of crying! On top of that, he is a delight to be around and kept me laughing and calm when I was having several emotional moments (he was also patient when we had to pause for tears and champagne sips during makeup application). Would highly recommend. Thanks rick!
