10/10 experience working with AC Bridal. They were always responsive, kind, and handled our wedding with 2 brides and 2 large bridal parties with ease and skill. Everyone looked so beautiful and we loved our hair and makeup. After my original trial I wasn't sure about the makeup look I chose, and they were very kind about rescheduling me to try something different! On the day, they were early, ready to go right at our scheduled start time. They were FAST and got through all 16 women ahead of schedule. We loved chatting with them, getting ready was such a lovely part of our wedding day! I really can't recommend them enough. Also, I was told multiple times throughout the night that my hair still looked perfect (and I was dancing HARD.) Just another reason to go with AC :)

Casey & Amberly were absolutely amazing!!! They did my hair & makeup for my wedding, along with my bridesmaids, and my mom. Everyone was SO happy with how they looked and we all got so many compliments. The airbrush make up is amazing and feels so good and light all day. Casey did my bridal hair and make up and she was incredible to work with. Amberly had the idea to add a little swipe of pink eyeliner last minute and I think it completed my look perfectly and brightened my eyes up! Thank you both so much!

AC Bridal was absolutely INCREDIBLE in getting me ready for my wedding day!! I met Amberly about a year before our wedding, and I've since become a client of hers. Working with her is so fun because she takes the time to get to know you and develop a friendship with you. She did an absolutely AMAZING job on my wedding hair and makeup, I was seriously in love!! The best part is that the makeup is airbrush, so when (not if haha) you cry, it dries and still looks perfect. My hair stayed beautiful the whole day, and with the pieces that did fall it just still looked so boho and pretty! I could not recommend a better company to trust with your wedding hair and makeup needs!!

Amberly was amazing from start to finish for my best friend’s wedding! We wound up needing someone to do hair and makeup for the bridal party just four weeks before the wedding. She was so responsive to email, got us scheduled right away, and was willing to travel an hour to the venue. Not to mention we were all super happy with how our hair and makeup turned out! She was wonderful to work with, super talented, and fairly priced. I would definitely recommend AC Bridal!

When it comes to picking someone to work their magic on your big day, it's not just about their skills; it's about connecting with their vibe too. They set the tone, so having someone who fits right in with your crew is a game-changer. Amberly was an absolute gem to our wedding morning.
I'll be real - I'm a bit of a control freak, especially when it comes to how I look. Finding the right artist was a top priority for me. But Amberly? She was a perfect match. Her relaxed vibe and positive energy just clicked with us instantly.
During our trial run, things were a bit of a whirlwind for me - my own work chaos and logistics had me all over the place. I was a ball of stress. But Amberly was a total lifesaver. She didn't just work wonders with makeup and hair; she was like a calming force in the middle of my chaos.
We hit a bump when the extensions I'd ordered were too light, but Amberly, being the superstar she is, promised to color them to match. Fast forward to the wedding morning, and I was floored by how perfectly they blended with my hair. She truly worked magic!
On the actual wedding day, Amberly absolutely nailed it. She took my vision and amplified it. Her attention to detail was off the charts, and she made sure I felt completely comfortable and confident.
Amberly wasn't just an artist; she was like a good luck charm on our big day. Her professionalism and easygoing nature made the start of our wedding day smooth sailing.
Amberly, thank you not only for making me look amazing but for being a beacon of calm in the middle of my chaos. You made me feel like a superstar, and I can't express enough gratitude for that.

Casey & Amberly were super responsive from the very get go. One thing that really stuck out to me was the quickness in which they responded to me. That never faded though out the entire planning process. I booked 9 months in advance and my trial was about 2 months before my day. I follow them on social media so I came prepared. Clean dry hair, brought my veil, came with an idea of what I wanted but an open mind. Left my Mom & MOH at home, brought my extensions. I left feeling even more excited about my wedding day than when I got there. Amberly was so kind and friendly. I felt like she really listened to me and honestly she made me feel like we’ve been friends forever. I even made an appointment to get my color done with her prior to my wedding day and I plan to keep coming after. Out of all of my vendors, Amberly and Casey have made me feel the most confident in my decision. On the wedding day, arrived early, kept us all on track and even finished before our set time. They were so much fun to be around and really got along with all of my girls. I have a special needs sister and I absolutely respected the manner in which they approached my sister and made her feel just like one of the other girls. I learned that Amberlys Aunt also is special needs and it really showed in the Grace that she showed my sister while doing her hair and makeup.
Overall, I feel like booking AC Bridal could not have gone better. I highly recommend and I truly felt like a princess on my wedding day.

I actually work in the Wedding Industry myself so I feel like I have a good judge of character and quality in a vendor. I have personally worked with Casey and Amberly several times over the years and always love their work. So I knew exactly who I wanted to get for my own wedding day. Even though we’re professionally connected, Amberly treated me like a regular bride which I deeply appreciated. No skipping any of the steps, still a deposit and contract, still a minimum number of services and a scheduled trial. I booked several vendors that were my friends and I felt so much more comfortable knowing everything was being done professionally. A few of my vendor friends weren’t nearly as organized and professional because of our knowing each other and I wish they would have been. Amberly and Casey are top tier wedding professionals and I was happy to use them for my own wedding and always happy to work with them with our brides.

Casey and Amberly were my bridal stylists and I cannot say enough good things. First, I’m a very disorganized bride. I waited until 3 months before my September wedding to even think about looking for hair and makeup. After quickly realizing how I should have done this way sooner, my mother in law found AC Bridal. Amberly moved mountains to get her schedule cleared and to get Casey on board so that I could have them as my team. The entire process she was super responsive, easy to communicate with, clear on her needs from me and helped me articulate exactly what I needed to change from my trial. She told me the trial is for a “trial and error” and we were going to shoot for almost perfection but we would clean up any loose ends on the wedding day. She made me feel very comfortable talking about what changes I would like to see. Even though I had no idea what I wanted when I walked in, I left feeling confident she would help me get there. On the wedding day they arrived on time, early actually, and graciously waited on myself and my bridesmaids to get it together. They were fun and energetic. Their banter with each other is hilarious and made us all feel like we’ve been friends our whole lives. I am so glad my MIL stumbled upon them and that they were so willing to help me and my girls on my wedding day. THANK YOU!

Amberly was my stylist and she was professional, competent, easy to talk to, and went above and beyond on my day! She was able to provide customized looks to each of my bridal parties tastes and provided hair and makeup that looked good all day even through wind and misty rain. 10/10 recommend!

I found AC Bridal through Wedding Wire and I was so pleased with the experience from start to finish! Amberly was incredibly helpful, responsive, attentive to detail, organized, and friendly! She has been working in the wedding industry for quite some time and she sure does know what she is doing! The hair trial was a great experience and made me feel prepared for my wedding day. Amberly did an excellent job helping me get ready for the wedding, as she recommended a variety of hair & make-up products and helped me establish a plan for the day. I am so grateful for how organized she was -- with creating a timeline for the morning of and giving me an overview of expectations to share with my bridal party. On wedding day, she and her assistant, Mariah, were on-time and eager to tackle all of the services. Amberly and Mariah did an awesome job keeping everything on schedule and helping the bridesmaids ideas come to life. Amberly was attentive to me, as the bride, and she made sure I was happy with my bridal look. I looked beautiful! I am grateful that I chose AC Bridal for my October wedding and happy with the experience. Would recommend! Thank you!!

I have never felt so beautiful, AC bridal went above and beyond through the entire wedding process, from the absolutely excellent communication, flawless bridal trail, and of course the day of. And to put the icing on the cake, they brought me my favorite coffee on our wedding morning! I cannot recommend them enough. My bridal party looked amazing, along with my flower girl and my 2 jr bridesmaids. The day of our wedding, was very windy. My hair held up through the very strong wind gusts. The picture of me in my dress, was 5+ hours after hair and makeup (and everything was still in place the next morning 😆) after searching the web, reading reviews, calling multiple stylists, no one compared to AC bridal.

Amberely was amazing from the very beginning. She helped me through my indecisiveness during my bridal trial and made sure that I was comfortable with the plan before I left. I got married on a hot and humid day in July and my hair held curl the whole day! Even through the drizzling rain. The airbrush makeup was also so amazing. I was apprehensive to try lashes and Amberely made sure that I felt comfortable and loved my look the day of my wedding. I couldn’t have ask for a better stylist! Everything was so efficient and communication was timely and thorough.

Amberly and Casey are amazing women who are extremely talented. Amberly did a fantastic job on my wedding hair. She also does airbrushed makeup which lasted the whole night. However, I recommend that you do your research to see if airbrush is for you. Casey did great prepping for Amberly the day of and made everything flow smoothly and quickly. The trial run was great and Amberly tried a couple of hairstyles until I loved the finished product. Highly recommend!

Amberly does an amazing job with everything she touches. I am forever grateful for the amazing make up look she did for my wedding. The pictures turned out stunning, truly an airbrush finish. My bridal hair was exactly the way I wanted it and couldn’t have dreamed for more. She even incorporated extensions and made it blend all so well. I was surprised how much time she took with each one of the girls in my wedding party and doing a different up-do for each one, customizing each person. Highly recommend her and her team.

Amberly was on site before I was, which I appreciated because she was able to set up and get ready for all of us to have our hair done. I cannot believe how quickly she was able to get all of our hair done, but it was also done beautifully! She’s one of the easiest people to talk to and made getting ready an awesome experience. Very reasonably priced. I highly recommend Amberly for your wedding or event services.

I’ve been styled by Amberly before and loved her work so I knew I wanted to hire her for my wedding day! Her prices were very affordable and she was extremely accommodating through this whole process! We did my bridal trial and when there was a few things I wanted to change up she offered suggestions and helped make my vision come to light so that wedding day was perfect! We had 11 services done so Amberly and Casey tag teamed to make sure we were done on time. Everyone raved about how amazing they looked and I was so impressed at how it all turned out! My mother in law said even “this is the prettiest I’ve ever felt” thanks to Casey! On wedding day we started to run out of time with pictures so we had to cut couple pictures short. My photograph suggested we go back to the venue for a second shoot so I immediately reached out to Amberly to see if she was available to do my hair and makeup the same as wedding day. We had a specific day to re do the shoot so amberly invited me to her house that morning and got it all taken care of for me. I wouldn’t have been able to get the shoot re done without her help and we were on a time crunch so it was amazing that she could fit me in! Overall I couldn’t have imagined hiring anyone else! Amberly and Casey did the best job for my girls and I and everyone looked beautiful. It was exactly what I had hoped for and with each girl that would get done with hair and makeup I was more and more impressed! Bonus - they did both hair and makeup so it saved so much time and it was airbrush makeup so it held up through tears!! 10/10 recommend if you want your wedding day look to be perfection!!

Amberly and Casey absolutely MADE our wedding day! They were a preferred vendor recommended by our venue, and thank god they were. Amberly was incredibly professional and straight forward with expectations, while also being so personable and genuine. They truly listen to what’s important to you, and if you’re like me and don’t have a clear vision, they give you options and suggestions that look amazing on you! We fell in love with her and her work at my bridal trial, and we’ve been friends ever since. I still go to her to get my hair done three years later because of how much I love her and how beautiful she makes me feel every time. On my wedding day they came to our Airbnb to do everybody’s hair and make up, and it was just like they were part of the family. Amberly and Casey also tell the absolute best stories, so they’ll glam you up and also have you cackling the entire time. Honestly an easy decision :)
