    Absolutely wonderful

    These women know exactly what they are doing!!! I had some bridesmaids that had no idea what they wanted done and they gave them advice and helped them get the look they wanted. Also gave detailed information about products that we were unfamiliar about. I highly recommend using them to make your wedding look exactly how you want it

    Made my natural beauty dreams come true!

    10/10 experience with Bella Bridal! Working directly with Amy was a breeze and she was on top of everything we needed. She is so fun and brings a lot of ease to your big day! For my bridal look, I had Katlin, who my friend had used for her wedding and she was amazing! Her bubbly personality makes you feel comfortable and able to share feedback. I am not a huge makeup girl, so her light, natural look went perfect with my vibes. She nailed it and I could not have asked for anything more!

    Effortless process

    I used Bella for my wedding. They were amazing every step of the way! I had my trial with Katlin. She was amazing and offered very helpful insight for my make up and hair. For the day of my wedding, I had three bridesmaids and two moms. The process to get everyone’s hair and make up done on time was effortless in their part!

    I will always recommend using Bella for any wedding

    Amazing!!!

    Katlin and Kennedy were amazing. I loved my hair and makeup and all my girls loved theirs as well. They were very flexible when I added someone last minute. I felt very comfortable with them during my trial which lead to no stress on my wedding day!

    AMAZING - Just Amazing

    Bella Bridal Beauty is an amazing company to work with! I hired them for my wedding on October 9, 2021! They completed 10 bridesmaids, the bride (myself) and my mother, in such a timely manner! From the initial conversation to the end of getting ready they were amazing! Renee, the owner has such a fun, and bubbly personality and her staff is exactly the same way! Everyone we worked with was amazing, listened to what each girl wanted and helped in creating the most amazing wedding I could have dreamed of. I cannot say enough great things about this company! I would recommend using Bella Bridal Beauty to anyone! If you are not convinced by me, go check out the website and I can promise you, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Bella Bridal team for making myself and all my special ladies feel and look stunning on my special day!

    Amazing for weddings!

    Bella Bridal was amazing to work with for our wedding! I was given Amy's info as a recommendation and couldn't be happier with everything they worked with me on for our wedding. Due to COVID-19, we had to postpone and reschedule a couple times and Bella Bridal was so accommodating and helpful through the whole process. We had a private ceremony in Oct 2020 and I regret not booking Bella Bridal for that. We had our big reception in June 2020 and honestly, I never felt better about my hair and makeup. Amy did 2 trials for me, once for my engagement photos, and then again for a real bridal trial. I also got a spray tan and felt so beautiful on our reception day. I can't thank Amy and her team enough for being so awesome! Highly recommend for any wedding or event!

    Absolutely amazing

    Amy is the best!!
    She is easy to talk to and everyone you contact helps you out every step of the way. Seeing we had to postpone our wedding the ladies were amazing and figuring everything out along with us. I couldn't have been more blown away by the end results for our BIG day.

    I looked amazing on my wedding day!

    Bella Bridal did an amazing job with my hair and make-up for my wedding. They also did a wonderful job with all of my girls and friends who had their hair and make-up done. Everyone was happy and loved their hair and make-up. Our pictures turned out amazing thanks to Amy and Megan! I highly recommend them for your wedding or any special occasion. They even came to our hotel room so we did not have to go anywhere.

    Wedding Party

    Ashlee was the absolute greatest! She installed my extensions the week before and she was phenomenal the day of the wedding! Very fun to be around and listened to everything we wanted with hair and makeup! Amy was also awesome to work with, setting up the extensions appointment and being very flexible with our schedule! 20/10 would recommend!

    Love Bella Bridal

    I cannot say enough about Amy and her very talented team! I had the pleasure of having my spray tan, hair and makeup done by Bella Bridal. My daughter and cousin also had their hair and makeup done for my wedding as well. It didn't take me long to find and book them. Everyone is friendly ,extremely talented, funny, caring, and take pride in their work. Their main goal REALLY IS to make sure that YOU feel BEAUTIFUL and they always come through. I experienced airbrush makeup for the first time, I love it. My cousin never wears makeup and felt very comfortable with it as well. They took their time and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.

    Amy and her staff were amazing! From the time I contacted her to when they came to do our hair and makeup! She was very quick to respond to emails (very helpful for a bride planning her wedding from Europe!) The airbrush makeup looked amazing even in the heat and humidity! I really loved their services!

    Bella Bridal Hair and Makeup Artistry was recommended to me by our wedding venue and now I see why! Amy was so responsive to my many emails and wishes! She listened to me throughout the whole process! When Amy and her team come to our hotel room in the morning...I knew we were in good hands! They listened to everyone in our party and finished ahead of schedule! Thank you all!

    Love Bella Bridal!

    Bella Bridal is an awesome group of women to work with! They’ve done my hair and makeup a few times for weddings where I was a bridesmaid, but most recently they did my hair and makeup for myself and my girls for my wedding on 7/30/22! We had a group of 11 girls – 11 got hair, 6 got makeup, and 1 set of lashes. They started right at 8, and were done by 11:30, and everyone looked fantastic! I’ve worked with Amy, Ashlee, Kennedy and Katlin, but after Katlin did my makeup perfectly as a bridesmaid last October, I knew I wanted her as my lead artist for the big day. After the trial, there were some tweaks that we needed to make (I have long, thick, hair that everyone underestimates) but she took that feedback in stride and my wedding day look was exactly what I was hoping for. Big braid, romantic feel, and all up (for a hot summer day) was just what I wanted. Makeup was subtle glam – browns, and natural tones, and my preferred natural lip color is more of a coral/orange-pink, and Katlin nailed it. Everything was great, and although I had to run out of the ‘get ready’ area as soon as we were done and didn’t get to properly thank them, I want them to know that I appreciated everything they did, down to the good conversation and ‘girl time’ while we were all getting ready. It all came together to make my day perfect, and I can’t thank them enough.

    Hi. I just used Bella Bridal for my wedding 3 weeks ago and I loved them. I had Carrie do my trial first and it went awesome. There was one thing that I did not like about my hair when I did the trial. On my wedding day, Carrie fixed it and I loved it. I had 14 girls get there makeup/hair done. Bella Bridal was very efficient and we were on time, we were actually early, which was great. I would highly recommend them. They are pricier, but worth the money for the quality. My girlfriend is using them now for her wedding in September, after she had her hair done. Thanks Bella Bridal and Carrie :)
