I am nothing but impressed with Kristin and her artistry! I was recommended to have her as my…read moremakeup artist for my wedding by at least 3 people. All gave raving reviews - from her makeup application to her funny and relaxed demeanor. If you're looking for a makeup artist for a special occasion Kristin is your girl. She traveled almost an hour to do my makeup trial on the Saturday of my shower because she recommended I get my makeup trial for a special occasion as opposed to any old normal day. Brilliant! My mom was VERY skeptical of getting her makeup done on the day of my wedding. However, Kristin gently assured her that it would look very natural and it did. She looked so beautiful! All of my bridesmaids were so pleased with their makeup and so was I. She was very careful to blend the makeup and make it look natural but dramatic enough to show in pictures. It stayed put all night and looked flawless in photoa. Thank you so much Kristin!

I made the best choice EVER by using Kristin for my wedding makeup. It was so much fun to work with…read moreher and my makeup came out amazing! Our trial was fun and relaxing, and she made me feel really comfortable (and even asked if I wanted a glass of wine!) I loved that she made sure to ask what I wanted and checked in with me after the trial with pictures to make sure I was still happy. On the day of my wedding, all my bridesmaids loved her so much that 4 of them booked her for their wedding party makeup! That says it all! She moved quickly and kept to schedule but still was so detail oriented and truly a perfectionist. She didn't do the exact same makeup on everybody, and instead really tailored the colors/style to each girl. She was also just plain fun to be around, and that really matters on such a busy day. Thank you to Kristin for making us all feel so good on each of our wedding days. I can't wait for many more weddings with you there! :)

I found Special Event Beauty on the website Wedding Wire. I trusted Wedding Wire with a lot of my…read morevendors for my wedding. I had been in communication with a few different make up and hair artists and I knew I wanted air brush make up specifically. I was really happy with the conversations I had back-and-forth with Jacki who manages the accounts. She always responded right away with all the information I requested. Their prices are reasonable and their team is excellent. I was able to schedule a hair and make up trial in Braintree about a month and a half prior to my wedding. I was so happy with my results. My make up and hair artist was Noelle. She is absolutely incredible. Jacki gave me Noelle because she said she specializes in braids and I knew I wanted my bridesmaids and I to have braids in our hair on the day. Very bohemian look. She did such an incredible job, please see photos for reference. If you are a bride seeking hair and make up I would definitely recommend this service and highly recommend Noelle! Also the rest of the team who styled my bridesmaids and mothers of the bride and groom. Monet and Cori! You were all incredible. Thank you for making my special day so special!

I did a very last minute hair and makeup trial with Maryanne and Rachel a month before my wedding,…read moreand they were so wonderful about it. I'd originally planned to go with another company, but my trial with them was absolutely terrible and I needed to find someone else, fast. I'd been recommended to call Special Event Beauty, and they got me in the very next afternoon on a Sunday for my trial. I know the ladies had to rush around to make it work, and I can't them them enough for that! Maryanne and Rachel came to The Groton Inn to do the hair and makeup of myself (the bride), my bridesmaids, my mother and soon to be mother-in-law. They showed up promptly, and even worked quickly with the inn to get a few taller chairs in our room to make their jobs easier. Everyone had a wonderful time with both of them, chatting and sharing a lot of laughs. It was the first time a few of them had ever had their hair and makeup done by someone else, and they put them at ease. Everyone loved the end results (including myself, after a bunch of little changes the day of - which they were both so wonderful about and didn't make me feel badly for being so indecisive in the moment) and I loved working with them both - I hope that I get to do it again sometime in the future - you know, for someone else's wedding ;)

She was ready for me right on time and the studio itself is so cute and clean! Taryn herself is really personable and easy to talk to. She recommended I also try the eyebrow tinting, which I did and I love it. She shaped my eyebrows perfectly and had a great way of keeping me relaxed the whole time so it was as painless as possible.

A few minutes later a person came out and said I can come in. I walked in and she asked that I wash my hands in the ladies room - done. Then I walked in and she did a temperature check on me. Then she asked me a few health questions and then I was all set to get my hair done. I have NO problem with going through those steps. This is my first time getting my hair done since this pandemic started. I was wearing a neck gator and they gave me a regular mask so she could do my hair and I could still wear a mask. This was my first time in this salon, it was very clean and neat. Kim did a great job on coloring my hair and a great blow dry! Not everyone does a great job when blow drying my wavy hair - she did!

All three of us were looking good at the end of the night, despite sideways rain and a rowdy dance floor. Another thing I really appreciated about Jared was his presence. He was calm but kind, a good communicator, and very professional. I would recommend him to any bridal party.
