I cannot speak highly enough of Shannon (hair) and Maggie (makeup). I was going through chemo when I got engaged and lost my hair. I came to Shannon saying I wasn’t really sure what all would be possible or not for my big day given the circumstances. I kept her up to date on how my hair was growing and the length and she assured me she would have me picture-ready for the day. They were such supports for me before even meeting. At my hair trial, Shannon took her time talking through my vision with extensions of my own. Because I hadn’t seen my hair down/long in so long, I opted for a 2nd trial to try out a new look. I cannot stress enough how much the 2nd trial was not a reflection of Shannon’s work, rather me being an indecisive bride! I had my makeup trial on my bridal shower day and it was the perfect start to the day- Maggie is a ray of calm sunshine. Being pampered by her is truly a treat! I had never looked so beautiful by the time she was done and I couldn’t wait for the wedding day look. Both Shannon and Maggie arrived promptly on my wedding day and ready to get started. They quickly and efficiently worked through my bridal party, glamming each one up seemingly better than the next- I don’t know how they did it, everyone was flawless. Their calm presence kept me at ease and they made such natural conversation with every person they worked on. My own hair was the hair of my dreams and what I had always pictured when getting married. When it came time for me to see my makeup, it was hard not to cry. It was perfection. Maggie had taken all of my minor tweaks and changes and elevated them so I looked my absolute best. I didn’t look like a former cancer patient..I looked like me, a bride, on her wedding day which is all that I had prayed for. I cannot recommend this team enough- they are so talented at what they do and bring such a calming presence to the day. Also, our hair held up so well even with pictures outside in the snow- our curls didn’t fall and I made my husband come into the hotel bathroom with me to marvel at how my makeup hadn’t budged before I washed it off at the end of the night. We love you Shannon and Maggie!
