There’s a first time for everything. I’m proud to say this was my first ever blowout for a bride and DAYYYUUUMMM IT ATE!!

Honestly, that’s all I came to say.
It’s okay to be new to something.
It’s okay to say yes when you’re unsure (if you know you can get there/deliver despite needing to learn to fill in the gap!).
It’s okay to share your journey with others 🫶🏻

👆🏻All that? Oh yeah, that’s just me writing to myself. Reminding myself that my journey is not linear, and that being new to something does not make me inferior when I’m the kind of girl to lock in

If you’re on my lil corner of the internet, chances are, that’s you too babes, so go ahead! This was def your sign to do it scared!!!

A blowout to start your wedding morning is actually the definition of “treating yourself” 😌

Then letting me style your hair in the most timeless, sleek half up, half down is absolutely iconic….I mean you saw E’s sneak peek images. STUNNING!

Making you feel comfortable and confident is my ONLY priority on your wedding day. Periodttttt.

If there’s something YOU want to do—whether it’s brows, layering your mascara, curling your lashes, or lining your own lips—I’m here for you babe!

The ultimate goal, regardless of how we get there, is for you to feel like the most confident, hotttttest version of yourself!! Far be it from me to take it personal if you’d like to do a step in your own makeup routine….in fact, I LOVE when I get brides who are makeup girlies and know what they want 🫶🏻🫶🏻

If that sounds like you, let’s chat!!

Bride who work with me get glam 3x. It’s just as much for me as it is for them.

The very best hair and makeup only comes from seeing your skin, from feeling your hair texture, and from knowing how both of those react to different products and layering.

We all understand that no two people are the same. It takes time, attention to detail, and and truly caring about the bride’s final look to execute wedding day hair and makeup that will last all night.

For me, that means I need multiple opportunities to ensure your wedding day look will be absolutely perfect. I truly have no idea how artists show up raw do***ng it, having never had a preview with the bride. The amount of anxious energy I would feel!! 😵‍💫😳

Plus I’ve never had a bride complain that all these services are included in her Bridal Experience! 😌

The skincare makes the makeup. Period.

How you care for your skin leading up to wedding day is THE indicator for how beautiful (and long lasting) your makeup will be on your wedding day!

I’ll definitely provide my signature skincare before every swiping any makeup on your face, but truly, the work you do before sitting in my chair will go well and beyond anything I can do for you in one session!

My brides get recommendations for when to see their derms and/or estheticians and what services to get / avoid leading up to wedding day!

DM me if you want my recs 🫶🏻🫶🏻

Alright friends, buckle in for a new era of sharing content and stepping out of my comfort zone of just posting videos of my bride’s final look 😬

I was feeling stuck in a bit of the ‘sea of sameness’ so here’s to a season of spaghetti throwing until I find what feels good for me, good for future brides looking at my work, and good for all of the amazing people currently following along this business journey with me 🫶🏻

First up in the spaghetti tossing is a voice over!
