Beauty Bespoken

and confident. I highly recommend Beauty Bespoken - Sarah is so kind and talented, she will make you feel radiant on your special day!

erent variations of the look I was going for, we discussed everything, she was so positive and honest with me. The day-of, she and her assistant Danielle we’re ahead of schedule, leaving time for touch-ups for me and my whole bridal party, they are both so talented! I had so many complements on my hair and makeup, it looked natural and looked like me!

ed and worked with me to perfect the look. We tried a couple different styles before landing on a final product. Everything that we tried was executed flawlessly. Ultimately I really felt that Sarah tailored her work to best fit me, vs copying and pasting the same style. On my wedding day I felt like the perfect balance of natural and photo-ready. When my husband saw me at the alter for the first time he kept mouthing how gorgeous I looked. Later he told me that he loved that I looked like me. I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life. And the look lasted throughout the night! We just got our wedding photos back and in the very last pictures of us, after a ceremony in blinding afternoon soon and a night of dancing, my makeup and hair were still perfectly intact. Sarah also styled my bridesmaids' hair. Everyone felt and looked amazing! Sarah is a complete professional. She was on top of her communication (even when I was very much not so) and took a proactive approach to everything. I am deeply grateful for her patience and support. Our wedding fell smack dab in the middle of the most challenging time of our lives. Sarah was a true blessing. Her professionalism and expertise alleviated feelings of turbulence and made a chaotic time manageable. Sarah truly is a master of her craft. Her artistry and professionalism are a winning combination. I am so grateful for her taking such good care of me and my friends. Thank you, Sarah!

O glad I did. She made sure I was recognizable and classy when I walked down the aisle. :) Her professionalism is evident throughout the process. Everything was well organized. She's excellent with her follow ups and very open to changes and/or adjustments if need be. I would love to work with her again in the future!

akeup look is so natural and highlights all of your best features you will wish you had her for your everyday life. Her timing for the day was impeccable and she is incredibly professional. I loved her!

looked in person and in the photos. I chose Sarah because her natural, glowing style of makeup aligned perfectly with what I wanted for our photos. I told her I wanted to look like the best version of myself, not like someone else. She absolutely nailed it! I have had my makeup done several times before, but I have never felt more beautiful than when Sarah finished working her magic. Before we got started, I showed her some inspiration photos. She then took me through a series of questions to help her understand exactly what I wanted. As she pointed out, "natural makeup" means very different things to different people, so the questions helped her understand exactly what level of coverage, etc. I wanted. On top of all that, she was so wonderful to work with. We had to reschedule twice due to unseasonably poor weather, and she was very flexible and patient as we worked through the changes and reschedules. I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough and I will certainly come back to her if I have any other events in the San Diego area for which I need my makeup done. If the wedding was in San Diego, I would hire her in a heartbeat!

a lot of make-up and have very sensitive skin, so choosing a make-up artist that was understanding of all of this was important to me. Sarah is so kind, easy to talk to, and did a beautiful job on my wedding day. With the pandemic, she took precautions including wearing a mask, sanitizing, keeping a clean workspace, etc. We are having our reception in 2022 due to COVID, and we would be more than happy to book her again for that big event!

2020. Sarah was exactly the right choice for me. She has mastered the natural elegance aesthetic, and she also has the natural elegance personality thing down to match. Her calm, confident, and collected attitude really set the right tone for our big event. My makeup was perfect, stayed on all night, and looked wonderful in our pictures. Thank you, Sarah!

or worked with anyone before. I found Sara through Instagram and was instantly blown away with her work. She made every women look even more beautiful than they already were and kept them looking true to themselves which I loved! I reached out to her and after our first phone call, I knew she would be perfect! We emailed back and forth and I even added her to my pinterest wedding board so she could get the whole look I was going for and man did she deliver. I never even met her till the day of my wedding. No trial runs or anything, she just instantly knew what to do and made me feel so beautiful! Not only that, but she is the sweetest person ever and truly became a friend through the entire process and we have kept in touch since the wedding! I would highly recommend her for any special occasion!

od my vision for my wedding, and she made me feel amazing, and I was so happy with the way my makeup turned out! Also, she did my bridesmaids makeup, and they looked so gorgeous ! I would recommend sarah to all the brides to be! She amazing!!

ook. I met Sarah completely by accident at the Modern Love Event, where I wasn't even looking for a hair and makeup artist! But when I learned more about Beauty Bespoken and about Sarah's passion for helping women's natural beauty shine, my hear knew that I had to work with her and that I could trust her 100% to make me feel beautiful on my wedding day. Not only is she brilliantly talented, she's a beautiful human, inside and out. Her skills doing my hair and makeup along with two of my bridesmaids were amazing, but we all also loved spending the morning with her on the wedding day. Thank you, Sarah, for being the incredible person you are!

ith the item I wanted to add for my hair and helped me look beautiful on my day!

nd I'm so glad I chose them to spend the morning of my wedding with! I would 100% recommend her.

rah!

ive! Every single one of my bridesmaids was thrilled with her hair and makeup (that never happens!). There is noone better to hire if you want a nature look and hair that stays for you entire wedding!

ithin budget. My makeup artist was one of the last vendors I booked, simply because I had such a hard time finding someone that I loved to do my/my bridesmaids' makeup on such a special day. I wear zero makeup 99% of the time, and for special occasions I'll usually only add some mascara and fill in my brows at most. I knew I wanted someone that gave their brides a more natural look, and all I kept finding were super glam styles that didn't match what I was going for. I was looking at reviews on the Knot and finally came across Beauty Bespoken. Seeing her photos was a breath of fresh air! After scrolling through images of her beautiful brides, I knew I wanted Sarah as our makeup artist! Sarah was extremely prompt in responding to my online inquiry, and we set up a makeup trial in her gorgeous studio a few months before my wedding. I've only worn fake strip lashes a handful of times which never seemed to fit my eye shape properly, but Sarah uses individual lashes on everyone which feel SO light and comfortable! She even made sure not to cover up my freckles with foundation; I felt like she truly wanted to make my natural beauty shine through her makeup, not cover it up and make me look like a completely different person. Sarah created a flawless beauty timeline for my wedding day and we stayed ahead of schedule the whole morning. She is such a warm and sweet presence and made all my bridesmaids feel so special and look stunning! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day and I am so happy that I went with Sarah. If you want a makeup artist that truly cares about each of her brides and goes above and beyond, I highly recommend that you book Sarah now!

l with this other vendor, I left panicking. I felt like I didn't look like myself and instantly started to feel insecure. My wedding planner suggested I look into Sarah, as her specialty is beautiful, natural bridal makeup. She squeezed me in 2 weeks before my wedding, did my trial the day before, and absolutely nailed it on my wedding day. I felt sooooo beautiful, but more than that, I felt like myself. Everyone at my reception kept saying that I looked like the most beautiful version of myself, and I totally felt that way. Sarah is so kind, genuine, and is completely worth the investment.

work with. The makeup was flawless throughout the entire 11 hours from finishing of makeup, to first look, to ceremony, to packing up the dance party. She made us all feel like goddesses! Can't say enough fantastic things about Sarah and her assistant - we LOVE them and can't recommend her services enough. 10/10!

and highly creative. Their team of artists are all so talented- my bridal party could not be more complimentary of the work they did. Sarah is very organized and did an incredible job communicating every step of the process. Additionally I live in Texas and got married in California and she really did an amazing job easing my fears about the wedding day. They executed on exactly what I wanted, even though I had made adjustments from the trial to day of. Couldn't recommend these ladies more!

ell-reviewed, talented hair and makeup artist or artists who still had availability so close to our wedding date. After several “we aren’t available on your date” emails, Sarah Anne (the owner of Beauty Bespoken) responded to my inquiry in a jiffy, and before I knew it we had a hair and makeup trial scheduled for the following week. After meeting Sarah Anne (who would be doing makeup) and Kayti (who would be doing hair) and seeing the beautiful work that they both did (Sarah Anne was able to cover up a nasty breakout with ease, and Kayti completed a gorgeous braided up-do in what seemed like no time at all), I knew that Beauty Bespoken was the right fit for me and my girls! Booking with Sarah Anne was a breeze, and whenever I had a question or concern leading up to the wedding, she was quick to respond. Flash forward to the day of the wedding. Sarah Anne and Kayti arrived to our location early, and were all set up before I even arrived. They would be completing hair and makeup for myself and 4 of my bridesmaids. As each girl sat with Sarah Anne and Kayti, you could tell they instantly felt comfortable and at ease. Sarah Anne and Kayti worked with each girl to create a look that they loved based in inspo photos, and when each girl got to look in the mirror after Sarah Anne and Kayti worked their magic you could tell they were blown away. The same can be said for me - everything I loved about my trial was recreated perfectly for my wedding day. Moreover, having Kayti, Sarah Anne, and Sarah Anne’s mom (who worked as an assistant for the day) with us as we got ready made the morning even more fun; it felt like all of us were long time friends who and known each other forever as we spent most of the morning laughing, something that I definitely appreciated as a nervous bride. Looking back at all the photos from our night, all of the girls looked absolutely radiant from the start of the night to the end. Sarah Anne’s Makeup highlighted all of the beautiful and unique features of each girl; the makeup did not look heavy, it was not clown makeup that I often see on brides and bridesmaids, it was natural and perfect. Turns out, having my initial booking fall through was a HUGE blessing, and having Beauty Bespoken as a part of my big day was meant to be. Any time I have a friend looking for hair and makeup for their wedding, or for any other special event, I will wholeheartedly recommend Beauty Bespoken.

nt in my choice from the beginning, without having even met Sarah in person yet. She is organized, detailed, and flexible, and sent over all the information for my bridal trial and day-of timeline! She was even able to provide a recommendation for a hair stylist (who was also great!) Her work is consistent and is available to view on her social media platforms. Her skills at matching your skin-tone, hair color etc. to makeup are incredible and Sarah will help make suggestions if you are unsure exactly what look you are going for. However, she is also open to making changes so you are nothing but ecstatic about your look! In addition to being highly professional, Sarah is super sweet and is all about serving you best on your big day! I highly recommend Beauty Bespoken for your wedding!

l of my bridemaids feel beautiful and even my mother-in-law (a tough critic) loved her look! She said "This is the first time in the 3 wedding's I've been in that I am happy with my make-up!". For me Sarah made me feel absolutely beautiful in my own skin that stayed all night long! I would definitely recommend Sarah for anyone wanting to get their make-up done for any special occasion!

elped with the stress of the day. I really wanted a natural look for my makeup, but also wanted to wear enough for photos and she did a perfect job. I felt beautiful! She is super organized, professional, kind, fun, and a really makeup artist. I highly recommend her for any makeup needs!

wedding party, had fears about looking overly made-up--none of us wear a ton of makeup and still wanted to look like ourselves. Sarah and Gina absolutely accomplished that! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, but more importantly, I felt like ME. When Sarah did my bridal preview several months before my wedding, she was able to both make recommendations and listen to my input (most of which, upon wearing the blush and lip colors I selected for a few hours, I realized didn't work for me at all). Sarah recalibrated everything based on the things I didn't love from our initial preview and was very patient and kind when I went through 20+ lip color ideas and texted her panicked photos of swatches on my arm. I still wasn't sure what color I wanted on the big day, and she brought four beautiful lipsticks that were exactly what I was going for and helped me pick the right one. She also gave me a full-size lipstick for reapplication throughout the day (though admittedly I forgot to do this...whoops). While getting ready before my 11 a.m. wedding, Sarah worked so well with my hairstylist (who I'd hired separately) and even lent her a mirror and other things my hairstylist had forgotten. She also helped clean up the hotel room and get everyone packed up so we could head to the venue since my hairstylist got behind on finishing my style. In short, she went above and beyond, and I cannot recommend her enough!

clear that she loves what she does and really cares about making her clients happy. Both my fiancé and I absolutely loved my makeup and really felt like she listened to what we wanted. She was also professional, organized, and on time. It was of course also a wonderful bonus that she drives to you (very much appreciated before the sun is up!). I couldn’t recommend Sarah enough and will definitely pass her information along to potential clients when I have the chance!

n over by the natural beauty she creates. Her work is stunning. She heard my requests, worked her magic and I couldn't be happier with my wedding day makeup! She is also timely and trustworthy in every meeting, conversation and transaction we had - 100% professional. Amidst many artists with loud makeup styles, Sarah's natural, elegant makeup is refreshing. It also speaks of her gentle, down-to-earth personality that made working with her so enjoyable. So sincerely thankful she was my wedding makeup artist!

in Sarah's services for my wedding day this August. And, sure enough, her aura of peace and calm helped ease my nerves the morning of the wedding when I had all of 3 hours of sleep and could not hold down any sort of breakfast. More importantly, as a testament of her work, I am happy to report that after uncontrollably crying for a good portion of my church ceremony, my makeup held up! I am looking at my pictures and I am in awe of Sarah's masterful work with make up! Sarah listened to what I was aiming for in terms of my make-up, and worked with me to achieve what I wanted. Plus, it's "ugly-cry" proof! Thank you, Sarah! I cannot stop looking at my smiling, beaming face, enhanced and not caked-on with make up. Thank you, Thank you!

ral look. And let me tell you, she met and exceeded all of my expectations. I had one other make-up trial prior to booking Sarah and the artist had difficult matching my olive skin color and finding the right lip color. Sarah took her time on the day of my trial to find a lip color that not only was I happy with but she wanted to find one that I loved. She spent a lot of time mixing multiple different lipsticks and using all of her creative instincts. We ended up finding a great color, but Sarah went above and beyond looking for an even better color. In the end, she went on a special shopping trip, and brought me a couple of options for the actually wedding day. It was an absolute pleasure working with Sarah and I highly recommend her to all brides!

e doing everyones makeup and everyone looked flawless! I highly recommend Sarah & Beauty Bespoken for anyone that is in need of a makeup artist!

rah stands out in so many ways. First, she is one of the kindest souls and just so sweet. I loved her emails, and even though wedding planning can be stressful, her emails always brought joy to my day. Second, Sarah is professional, organized, and committed. She responds quickly, provides all necessary information, and goes above and beyond. For example, she (on her own with me asking) arranged the schedule and coordinated with my hair team and photographer. She arrived on time (early even!) for both the preview and the day of. Third, Sarah is an artist and did such a phenomenal job of bringing out the natural features of my sisters, mother-in-law, and me. If I ever need my makeup professionally done again, I know that I'll be reaching out to Sarah. She's so awesome and I love her Instagram page full of positivity and great photos of clients who are lucky enough to work with her.

ll, and we all looked SO beautiful! Sarah is so sweet, and I felt super comfortable with her from the second I met her when she came to my home for my Bridal Preview. She genuinely cares about making you feel your best for your special day, and made it so fun! Also, the individual lashes that she so amazingly applies legitimately look like they're real and they stayed on for me the entire next day!! (and I never wanted to take them off) :) Thank you SO much Sarah!!!
