Beyond expectation

11/10 rating for Valerie. She did makeup for myself and mother. I truly loved the look she was able do for both of us. Makeup didn’t budge throughout the (very long) day. On top of it all, she was such a pleasure to spend time getting ready with on the big day. Any bride would be lucky to have Valerie be a part of their team.

Makeup that Enhances Natural Beauty

From the time I booked a makeup trial to the day of my actual wedding, Valerie was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was very attentive to my specific requests on how I wanted my makeup applied and asked for my input at various stages to ensure the end result was exactly how I envisioned it to be. Her application looked very even, clean and enhanced my best features. In addition, her fees are more than reasonable and she even included some touch up makeup and blotting paper to help me look my best on my wedding day. She is also very friendly and a good conversationalist, making the entire process of having a stranger do your makeup feel less uncomfortable. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a stunning makeup application that compliments their natural beauty!

What a breeze!

Valerie was awesome to work with, she is extremely talented and loves doing what she does. She did four of our faces and we looked flawless. At the end of my make up she even gave me a kit to ensure I stayed looking fresh all night. She uses really good products too so none of our faces broke out!
I highly recommend Valerie!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Lovely Makeup!

Right from booking my wedding date to the actual wedding day itself, Valerie and her partner were absolutely amazing and made sure everyone felt comfortable. They followed direction so well with what myself and my bridal party wanted. Makeup looked wonderful. Valerie also has very affordable pricing. Will definitely contact Valerie in the future if makeup is needed.

You need to hire Valerie!

Valerie is incredibly talented with both hair and make up services! She came to our house for hair and make up for the bride and maid of honour, as well as hair for another wedding guest. She was able to perfectly re-create a hairstyle based on a photo provided!
Valerie is such a lovely person, inside and out, we enjoyed getting to know her during our trial session and on the wedding day. We will certainly look to hire her again!
You won't regret your decision to reach out to Valerie for hair and make up services!!

Amazing hair/makeup :)

Valerie was great to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone! On my wedding day, she brought an assistant who did makeup for my mom and sister, while Valerie did hair for all three of us plus my makeup. They both did a great job on everything and my hair and makeup lasted throughout the entire night. Valerie was very prompt, professional and flexible with last minute location changes. Her prices were very reasonable and in fact lower than many other hair and makeup artists without sacrificing amazing quality.

Disappointed

I would like to first mention that I had a VERY large bridal party, and Valerie and her partner who came were so flexible and accommodating throughout the entire morning.
As the bride, I wanted an up do so that I wouldn't have to worry about pushing hair out of my face throughout the day. However, my up do was extremely loose and my veil came out literally right after we were announced husband and wife, and I didn't get to wear my veil in most of my pictures. I felt bobby pins poking out of my hair and brushing up against the back of my neck the entire day from ceremony until we went home at 2am after the reception. It was a very irritating feeling throughout the day.
A few of my bridesmaids were constantly pushing my curls back up because it was coming apart. Good thing some of my bridesmaids had a stash of bobby pins and they attempted to fix it as much as they could before we walked into the reception.
The service was really great, and Valerie was extremely kind and sweet the entire morning! However I was very disappointed with my hair. I was CONSTANTLY worrying that it would show in all my pictures and my bridesmaids were constantly trying to fix it throughout the day to ease my stress. Every chance I had, I would push my hair back up because I could literally feel it getting looser and looser. It was just an added worry/stress that I didn't need on my most special day :( A few of my bridesmaids were also not very happy with the way their hair turned out. For a bunch of them, it was their first time ever being a bridesmaid and they felt they needed to fix their hair before we left for the ceremony.

Once again, service, communication, and the fact that Valerie was super duper accommodating was great. However, I was just not happy about my hair at all.

Everything I wanted and more

Valerie made me feel my best and my most beautiful on my wedding day. I received so many compliments on my hair and makeup, and it truly was everything I envisioned and more. She’s the kind of make up artist who ensures you feel comfortable with what she does or suggests, and I really appreciated that. Thank you Valerie!
