I was so lucky to find Leslie for my destination wedding, who came highly recommended by my wedding…read moreplanner! From my very first meeting with Leslie, I could tell she was experienced and professional, which put me at ease. She is also very kind, and listened to my preferences and what kind of look I was going for. I went to Leslie's house a few days before my wedding for a trial run with my hair and makeup. My mom also wanted a trial run with her makeup, and Leslie did an amazing job with both of us. I told Leslie I wanted a dramatic smoky eye look with fake eyelashes, and she knew exactly what to do. My mom loved her makeup too, because Leslie was able to make her eyes look bigger, which normally squint when she smiles. My mom raves about Leslie's work to this day, that it was the best makeup she has ever had! The day of the wedding, Leslie arrived to the house promptly and ready to go! She was calm and cheerful, and did hair and makeup for myself, my mom, and my 3 bridesmaids with ease. She stayed around while our photographer was taking pictures of me, touching up my lipstick and making sure everything was perfect. She helped me feel relaxed and confident, and even added some last minute orchids to my hair which was the perfect touch! My hair and makeup stayed in place all day and night--it looked great in all the pictures even after sweating on the dance floor! Mahalo Leslie for your amazing work!!! It was a pleasure to work with you and I hope our paths cross again.

If you're looking for a group of makeup artists to make you feel absolutely magical on your big day…read more(and in photos!), Face Art Beauty is it! I can be my biggest critic when it comes to looking in the mirror heh :'), so I am super appreciative of Dhyana's artistry and talent. I chose a soft glam look (in between glam and natural), and I was in awe of how I looked in reality and in photos! Dhyana is not only amazing at her craft, but she also carries a calm presence with her that makes you feel at ease on stressful big days. Jessica and Nori helped take great care of my wedding party, all of whom also looked dashing! Jessica was so friendly that one of my friends (who's a dog fanatic) chatted with her about dogs the whole session and they later followed each other on Instagram! I also chose to have a makeup trial for an engagement photoshoot, which I'm glad I did because I got to see what I liked and didn't like. For example, while I looked fantastic in person, my look in photos turned out differently due to our photographer's filters and editing style. It was helpful and highly recommended! In essence, FAB may be on the pricier side, but if you want to look drop dead gorgeous and not stress on your big day, they're it (and completely worth it)!

But Face Art Beauty completely eased my anxieties. From the start, they were so communicative, and checked in with reminders and tips along the way. I was lucky enough to get an appointment on short notice (two months). On my wedding day, I had the pleasure of having Diana do my hair and makeup at their studio, and she was awesome. She really listened to what I wanted, even when I struggled to explain it technically--and somehow understood my vision perfectly from our chat and my inspiration photos. She walked me through everything, made sure I felt comfortable at every step, and the end result was exactly what I hoped for: soft, natural, and timeless. Even when it rained during our photoshoot, my makeup stayed flawless. I'm grateful for Diana and the entire team for making me feel beautiful and at ease on such an important day.

Where do I begin! I have too many wonderful things to say about Laurena (and Sheri--see the third…read moreparagraph), so I think a little background story is in order, so you can truly get a full picture of how amazing she is and why I 100% recommend that you trust her with all of your bridal hair/makeup needs! My husband and I were married last Friday 10/26/18 (woo hoo!) and several months prior to the wedding, I had booked with a different hair/makeup vendor. I grew up in Hawai'i, but now live in California so I could not plan a hair/makeup trial in advance. Four days before our wedding, I had my hair/makeup trial and the results unfortunately were lackluster. Even my family and friends urged me to cancel services and agreed that I would be better off doing my hair and makeup myself. You can imagine how stressed out I quickly became! Thankfully, this makeup/hair vendor was very gracious and understanding in allowing me to cancel with such short notice however, my next big worry was how would I do my own makeup/hair (I am terrible at this!) and would it be possible to find someone with only FOUR days until the BIG day?! With all the other details of the wedding I still had to do, this was the last thing I wanted to have to worry about... The next day, after several unsuccessful attempts at finding hair/makeup artists available, I drove to Nordstrom at Ala Moana and walked into the makeup section, head down and spirits low, and hoping to find someone to help me find makeup that I could use to do it myself =/ Then I met SHERI who instantly brightened my day with her infectious personality and sincere interest in helping me any way that she could! I told her the situation, showed her pictures of my bridal trial, and not only did she make wonderful recommendations for makeup, she immediately called LAURENA, told her the situation, and provided me Laurena's website/contact information. After leaving Nordstrom, I quickly filled out Laurena's questionnaire on her website (it reviews types of services requested, you can even upload pictures of your desired hair/makeup looks). She responded to my questions within minutes and even requested pictures of my bridal trial so that she knew what to avoid, which I greatly appreciated. She reviewed my questionnaire instantly and to my surprise she was available!!! She literally sent me an invoice and contract that same day! I had to make a few changes to the services (as a few bridesmaids made changes to the type of service they wanted) and she quickly sent over the updated versions within minutes. With Laurena's user friendly website, her quick and friendly responses to my questions, and taking the time to review pictures of what I did and did NOT want, I was reassured instantly that I would be taken care of throughout the booking process and on the BIG DAY! A HUGE weight was lifted off my shoulders because from this moment-- all of my worries just melted away. Friday, our wedding day came in the blink of an eye and Laurena showed up to the estate in Hauula (which is far and she had no problem traveling here!) with to my surprise, SHERI!! They quickly came inside and got to work on our makeup and hair. What I loved about Laurena is that she made professional recommendations on the pictures of possible bridal looks I sent to her (I am clueless when it comes to makeup!). She pointed out that the picture I sent was beautiful but the eye shadow was a bit too simple and she wanted to make sure my makeup was still natural but had that WOW 'I'm a bride!' factor. Without hesitation I said yes to all of the above and the result -STUNNING makeup and hair that I have always pictured having on my wedding day and MORE. This is not an exaggeration, once I have pictures from my friends and photographer I will upload them asap! The way she did my makeup, she brought out my features in the most beautiful way and she curled my hair in a way that had that 'Victoria Secret-esque' voluminous curls I've always wanted. I also wanted the left side of my hair above my ear pinned and detailed with white orchids and she did this exactly how I wanted. Sheri also did an absolutely amazing job on my bridesmaids! They also were so in love with how she did their makeup and hair. Phew! That was long! But a short review would not have done Laurena justice. All in all, she was extremely friendly, professional, attentive, responsive to my questions, and so incredibly talented. I don't wear makeup or do my hair often but wanted to make sure that on my Wedding day everything would be flawless, and I can confidently say that her services exceeded my expectations in every way possible. For all of you brides-to-be out there, book her ASAP! She will take care of you from the moment you book all the way until your big day! Laurena, I wish I had a word to describe how amazing you are. I cannot thank you enough! -Melanie

Sarah and her team were fantastic! We started planning way back in 2019 and had a year of…read morereschedules due to COVID and other unforeseen circumstances, and Sarah was always accommodating with rescheduling the trial date and the wedding date. I'm not particularly experienced with makeup (or hair, for that matter) but when I walked into Sarah's studio for my HMU trial, I was instantly put at ease by her friendly demeanor and professionalism! After showing her a couple of pictures, she instantly 'got' what I was looking for, and even threw in another awesome hairstyle for a photoshoot I had later in the day. The day of, Sarah and her team showed up and were fantastic at responding to everyone's wants (I had HMU for MoB, MoG, and bridesmaids). My hair and makeup was even better than it was during the trial, and afterwards Sarah gave me a little touchup kit in case I needed it throughout the day - which, as it turned out, I didn't! The hair and makeup both lasted all the way to the wee hours of the morning! I can't recommend Sarah and her team enough!

I communicated with the team via phone (but left a voice message) then communicated via texts (which seemed faster and convenient for everyone). I was able to set a makeup and hair trial session 6 days before my big day. I was set up with the amazing Moana! I am a person who does not wear makeup a lot nor has great makeup skills lol. So I will admit, I was nervous. I mean, I had my share of experiences from Sephora and I was not always satisfied. So yes, I was skeptic. BUT...Moana did an amazing job with my hair and makeup trial! I loved it! She is friendly and hilarious. And she was honest with me. I showed her inspiration pictures and she let me know that the pictures I showed her were AI and reminded me that their skin is flawless and that she cannot make it exactly like the picture but she can work with what I have and make it beautiful in my own way. And she asked me questions and opinions on how I wanted to look. And the results of the trial session was amazing. For the rest of the day I walked outside and felt beautiful hehe. The day of, Moana, made me look and feel beautiful. I loved my makeup and my hair!! And my bridesmaids and my mom and mother-in-law were glammed up by the other amazing girls from DMA and omg...they all looked amazing! And they all loved it! And we were ready on time when the limo was to pick us up...okay, maybe a few minutes late. But the driver was not complaining hehe. Thank you girls from DMA that helped me and my girls look beautiful for the big day! Makeup and hair stayed on well too for all of us, especially with the heat and humidity that day. hehe. MAHALO!!!!

Last minute changes. Lack of communication. Surprise fees…read more The week before the wedding was stressful, but I didn't expect to cry the most over Delish. We were looking to book Heather, the owner of the business, and were given 2 options - a standard package to book with the team or the more expensive LUX package to lock down Heather. For the standard package, they said Heather was available, scheduled herself for our wedding, and it's rare that another bride will book LUX package on the same day and cause Heather to move off. So, we felt comfortable to go with the first option thinking they would communicate if anything changes. Nothing changed for almost a year - until the week before the wedding. We were notified that another bride is interested in Heather, but nothing was confirmed so we could still upgrade the package. We were in the middle of work meetings, panicked, and decided that we would! It's the week before the wedding and we would throw money at any stability as we knew nothing about the other artist. We took out our credit card and our heart sank when we saw "Ok so we just got booked for a LUX from the other bride for this day". They didn't tell us this was a race!? We were given only 34 minutes to decide!? We thought they'd at least have the courtesy to wait for the initial client to make decisions. Sure it's not *illegal* but it's definitely unkind for Delish to pit 2 brides against each other the week before the wedding. Our wedding coordinator suggested to Heather that she should call us. We heard nothing, waited, and only got text messages 2 days later that they would make it up to us by doing the trial at our hotel instead of their studio. Then, they charged us $30 for parking tickets, which we would not have agreed to if we knew about it. We also requested to see the artist's portfolio to get over the feeling that I was going with a fallback option. It took 4 days for Heather to say "Sorry, completely forgot to send those over". 2-4 days is not a long time in a non-wedding settings, but keep in mind that this was 1 week before the wedding. That was 4 days of me crying convinced I was not going to look my best at my wedding. We considered not tipping with all the stress they put us through but we decided that the makeup artist is not a part of the admin team, so we still did. In the end, the artist was nice but the tears and nightmare they put us through was not worth it.
