Beauty by Mariel

ting naturally radiant, flawless-looking skin. Not only was she doing my makeup, but she was also doing my 80-year-old grandma’s—and let me tell you, ol’ girl looked stunning! Mariel scheduled a trial session where we could talk through my vision and explore all the possibilities. During that session, I felt so genuinely cared for. She pampered my skin with a thoughtful skincare routine before moving step by step through the look we’d create for the big day. It wasn’t until she placed the veil on my head during the trial that it hit me—my wedding was truly around the corner. Beyond her talent for enhancing natural beauty and bringing calm, positive energy, Mariel turned out to be a lifesaver. When my wedding photographer canceled the day before the ceremony, she immediately jumped into action, reaching out to her network and finding a replacement who matched my energy perfectly. I will forever be grateful for that. Thank you, Mari, and your incredible team, for treating my family with so much love and care—and for making sure we all felt beautiful, especially my Granny. I’m so thankful your kindness and presence became part of such a special day.
