Ally is an incredible makeup artist and just the sweetest person! She is so talented and listened to what I requested/wanted right away at a makeup trial. For my wedding day she went above and beyond my expectations! From the initial phone call, to planning questions, to the day of, she was professional, friendly, and did a great job with my wedding party makeup. Highly recommend!!!
I’ve had my makeup done by Ally twice now and both times she absolutely killed it and made me feel so beautiful. I would recommend her any day 💗
I was so blown away at Ally’s services at my wedding!! Ally and her team provided hair and makeup services for my wedding and early April, and they were amazing. I had eleven bridesmaids (yeah, I know, not small) who each had at least one service done, in addition to my mother-in-law. Ally was so easy to work with to bring in enough stylists for our large group, and all of the girls raved about how much they loved their services. It was such a relief as a bride to have the girls happy who paid their own money for the services, and they all agreed Ally charged such a reasonable rate. Now for my own hair and makeup- I was so incredibly happy how it turned out!! Candice did my hair, and it turned out even better than I could have imagined. I was a little nervous using extensions, but she blended and secured them perfectly through the design of the hair style. Ally did my make-up, and I’ve never felt more beautiful in my life. AND I need to highlight my favorite part- at the end of the night, my husband and I did a pool jump. I was fully ready for makeup to be running down my face or at least have smudging around my eyes. But then- it looked like I never jumped in a pool- the makeup looked as perfect as it did earlier! Ally truly worked magic- at our after party, a bunch of my girl friends came up to me to tell me how well I touched up my makeup after the pool- they were shocked to learn I didn’t have to touch it at all! Beyond all of this, Ally and everyone on her team were so sweet, down to earth, and easy to talk to. I could not have a stronger recommendation to have Ally and her team for your wedding or event!!
Any questions?
Working with Ally on my wedding day was nothing short of amazing. Her professionalism and great work actually began well before my wedding day as she was helpful and informative from the first time I initially reached out to inquire about her services. Her clear willingness to help me find the right solutions for me and my group made booking with her an easy decision! I met her a few months before my wedding day for a trial which was so helpful and fun! I needed hair services as well and she works with such wonderful, talented and KIND stylists. Ally was receptive to the feedback I gave after my trial and also contributed her professional input and suggestions which was much appreciated. On the day of my wedding, I was so excited to see her and her team - they really bring such a fun and bright vibe to the getting-ready process. All of my ladies looked incredible - tastefully done and most importantly, they were all happy with their looks! I got so many compliments on my bridal makeup and hair and it all turned out exactly as I had envisioned. The touch-up kit she provided me came in handy during the rest of the day and it was such a special touch to her already stellar services. As our wedding came to a close, my husband and I jumped in the pool to cap off the best day ever! As soon as I got out of the pool, all of my friends were shocked at how my makeup essentially looked the exact same - even while wet, Ally’s make-up work stayed put and looked just as good as it did before! I can’t say enough great things about working with Ally, she’s an expert and a true professional and helped to make my wedding experience such a positive one. Special thanks to Arlene and her team, too!
Ally was the most amazing makeup artist! She truly made me feel like a beautiful bride and made the whole experience a memorable one. She was so kind and we instantly vibed so I knew it was going to be a great experience. She had so much knowledge not just about makeup but about the whole wedding experience, which was a huge help. She referred a few other wedding vendors to us local to the area and they were all amazing! I found Ally through two wedding vendors and can see why she came highly recommended, she’s the best!
Thank you Ally for everything!!
Ally is an incredible makeup artist and I can't sing her praises enough! Her calm, patient & wonderful personality made the entire experience truly delightful. My bridesmaids, mom, and I loved our looks, and we all felt confident going into the wedding day. Ally exceeded all expectations!
Ally was amazing to work with for my wedding day! As someone who wears little to no makeup on a day to day basis, Ally was able to make me look glamorous while still being comfortable and feeling like myself on the day of the wedding. The few hours before the ceremony were definitely the most stressed I was leading up to the wedding but Ally had such a great calming presence and helped me relax and feel confident prior to our first look.
Thanks a million Ally! You were a gem to work with!
Ally did such a beautiful job! I felt like my makeup looked natural and elegant. She was also very prompt with communicating with me and was wonderful to work with. Thank you Ally for making me feel special on my wedding day!
Ally did an amazing work with my bridal makeup, my moms and MOH. Absolutely love her professionalism, communication and punctuality.
She listed to my ideas, and also helped/advised me when I felt lost.
Ally was beyond amazing for my wedding! She and her assistant did makeup for my entire wedding party, my mom, grandma, as well as makeup for my mother and law and her mom. They came on time, set up seamlessly, and kept on schedule with ease. Ally was so warm and enjoyable to be with for the day, and everyone’s makeup looked spectacular!! Not only did everyone look amazing - but my makeup, along with the others in the group never had to touch up or fix anything the entire evening. I’d highly recommended Ally - she is fantastic and will have you looking perfect for wedding day! Thank you again, Ally!! ❤️
Ally and her team recently came to my wedding at the Ace hotel in Palm Springs. They were not only the sweetest girls but so great at what they do! Myself, the bride and all of the bridesmaids loved their make up and hair! Everyone looked so beautiful. I have never received more compliments on my make up! Ally also gave us all touch up kits which was such a nice touch! I loved my look for my big day! I would recommend her over and over again! Thank you Ally!
I booked with Ally for my wedding in November 2023 to do my makeup and my bridesmaids. I’ll come back and leave another review in November, but I can say I loved my makeup from my trial. She was great to work with, so personable and really did a great job creating the look for my special day.
Can’t wait for November. :)
Ally is sooo incredible to work with! She brings such a fun energy AND calming presence every bride needs. I also requested she do my lash extensions and they were AMAZING. I can’t say enough great things about Ally. 10/10 recommend! After bridal trial I felt comfortable to talk with her even days afterwards asking to change things up with my makeup - so it made me feel so comfortable going in on my wedding day.
Ally absolutely made my wedding day glam! Makeup can be the most nervous part of your wedding day- you want to look your best and for all your investment into the photos and lasting the entire day and night! Not only is Ally an artist in her own but the *quality* of products needs to be mentioned. What I looked like at 11 am is how I looked at 11 pm and that’s priceless. Also she was so patient with my mother who wears close to no makeup on a daily basis. I am so thankful to have had Ally by my side on my big day and I highly recommend to any bride that wants to feel the long lasting glam on their big day!
I booked Ally for my wedding makeup along with my bridal party makeup and she did a fantastic job!! I have never felt more beautiful in my life and she really nailed the look I was going for! Ally was so sweet and made me the cutest bridal touch-up bag and gave me some tips on how to preserve my makeup throughout the day. I knew that I loved the makeup but the fact that it lasted through many tears (of joy!) and sweat (from dancing all night!) is what really showed what an excellent artist she is. Oh and I have to mention, her makeup kit is what dreams are made of! My girls and I wanted everything she used and she was so sweet to explain the products to us. I can't say enough good things about her. 100 out of 10!!
I hired Ally and her wonderful team for my wedding on 11/05/22. They did such a fantastic job and made everyone look and feel beautiful! It was also super solid hair and makeup that last all day! She and her team were so laid back and made us feel comfortable as we were getting our makeup done. They let us do our thing with no judgment and never forced any sort of small talk. They were just vibing along and the music they had playing in the background was fantastic as well! The only con is that the bridesmaids kits were supposed to come with a mini gloss and the mini gloss was not filled, we got empty tubes. However, this is such a minor detail, I would totally hire Ally and her team again in a heartbeat!
Are you kidding me! Not only did Ally have the most kind, calming bedside manner, but her makeup skills are out of this world. I came into my consultation wanting glowy, soft makeup for my bridal party, as we all gravitate toward "natural" looks. I did express to Ally that I was tempted to go full 60s glam and she told me I had to go for it. Not in a pushy way––she just affirmed my instincts which was really sweet. In addition to my bridal makeup, Ally did a wonderful job with varying skin textures, tones, and scarring. Grooms, don't be afraid of a little color correction :)
Would recommend a million times over. Pretty sure I won't need her for any future weddings, but I'd be honored to use her services again in the future.
I can't say enough good things about Ally! Ally did both my hair and makeup for my wedding day. At both my trail and on my wedding day, Ally was so kind, asking thoughtful questions to ensure I was happy with both hair and makeup. She did an awesome job taking my inspo photos and using them to make me look and feel like myself. Thank you Ally!
Ally went above and beyond for our wedding, and I will never ever forget how beautiful I felt. Not only was my makeup perfect (and flawless in photos), but all of my bridesmaids felt the same! On a day that can be so stressful, she brought the most fun and calming energy to my entire bridal party. She was also so open and honest with any questions I had beforehand - from airbrushed makeup to lashes. I was so lucky to find Ally for our wedding, and cannot recommend her enough!
Ally was amazing! I don’t usually wear a lot of makeup so I was a little nervous about wearing more than usual on my wedding day but I absolutely loved it and so did my husband. She brought so much good energy on the wedding day which really helped me relax. I would definitely recommend Ally to anyone for wedding day (or any other occasion) makeup!

Thank you so much Mary Rachel! It was such a pleasure working with you and your family. 💕
Ally D and her team were absolutely wonderful!!! They were on time, organized, fun, and listened to everyone’s personal requests! My Bridal makeup was STUNNING. I wanted to keep it natural but still have some glam and she did just that. It lasted well over 8 hours and photographed beautifully. My bridesmaids hair and make up was done by her and Arlene and they absolutely killed it. Everyone was glowing and looked so beautiful while still looking natural. I can not recommend booking Ally for your big day more!
Beauty by Ally D was amazing!! Our makeup looked great - which I was nervous about since we got married in the hot desert! Our hair held the entire night. Overall, it was an amazing experience!
Ally was amazing to work with!! Not only did she have to style my hair and makeup for a Korean ceremony as well as a western one, she was a joy to work with. She took all of my ideas and worked with them to make sure I looked my best at both ceremonies. For the Korean ceremony, I did a very traditional look and then went full old Hollywood glam for the other. She was really open to feedback and making adjustments to shading and eyeliner shape, which I really appreciated - sometimes working with stylists can feel intimidating. She was so professional and flexible that made it so seamless. She also did hair for all the flower girls and made sure they all felt like queens :). I never looked as glamorous and as beautiful!!! I really really lucked out when I found Ally and would absolutely love to work with her again!
Beautiful make up and Ally was so kind and sweet and patient amidst the chaos of a wedding day. I would highly recommend Ally for any bride who wants to feel comfortable while being made beautiful!
Could not recommend more!! So grateful to have found Ally and her team on The Knot! Form the start, Ally was a great communicator and very East to work with form my preview to the day of our wedding, especially with a last minute COVID cancellation for one of my bridesmaids. Ally did such a fantastic job on my wedding make up! I looked and felt truly beautiful, and she was so calming and a great support day of too. Her team is also fantastic! All of the bridal party looked gorgeous and had such a great time getting ready with Ally and her team! Our wedding was on 12/27/21. Would hire Ally and team again in a second! 💖
Ally is amazing!! Do not walk, run to her for makeup-up. My wedding makeup came out so beautiful and it was everything I imagined and more. We did a bridal trial 3-weeks prior to my wedding day where we got to try different looks and colors which was amazing because the day of the wedding was a breeze. She is worth every penny and I cannot say enough positive info!
I booked Ally for my Palm Springs wedding. She did a fabulous job on my makeup as well as my bridesmaids and Mother. I'm from Orange County and wanted a local artist that was used to doing makeup in that Palm Springs heat and she did just that. My makeup did not move all day or night. I felt so beautiful and credit Ally's amazing work and professionalism.
