Micaela was a gem to work with! She and her assistant, Katie, did an AMAZING job on both my bridal makeup as well as my bridal party of eight women. They arrived at the getting-rea...
dy space with plenty of time to start and finish and everyone kept on schedule perfectly! They even brought their own director-style chairs and lights for the getting-ready space, which was awesome and made us all feel like celebrities! Micaela and Katie were super fun and just made the morning feel so lively and stress-free. Most importantly, everyone’s makeup looked gorgeous and stayed perfectly in place all day, even throughout the extreme heat and humidity of having an outdoor wedding in June! I was blown away by how in-tact my makeup stayed after being outside walking around our outdoor venue grounds for several hours. Micaela even gave me a touch-up kit to use throughout the day, which I honestly didn’t even need to use since my makeup stayed on so well (but I do guiltily still use the beauty blender she included LOL). My makeup ended up looking exactly how I’d hoped on my wedding day and it’s all thanks to Beauty to Embrace!
Micaela did an amazing job with my makeup, and I highly recommend her. I don't wear much makeup, and I wanted to be sure I looked and felt like myself on my wedding day. Micaela wa...
s great at the trial helping me figure out what I wanted, explaining and showing me my options so I could make informed decisions about my makeup. On the day of, she brought a warm and welcoming energy to the bridal suite. My bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law looked amazing, and I loved my makeup so much.
Amazing team that was able to accommodate a large party with a fabulous look!
I have never felt more beautiful.
I am not a make up person and Michaela from Beauty to Embrace was the most amazing!

dea from my lack of makeup knowledge and it made me feel so comfortable with her.
She had incredible suggestions based on my inspiration photos and my skin tone and I am so incredibly pleased!
Michaela is amazing to work with. So organized and took detailed notes from our phone calls and emails.
She truly knew how to elevate my own skin to make me feel like myself still as someone who doesn’t always wear makeup.
My bridesmaids had incredible things to say about her as well from their experiences with different make up artists.
I would highly recommend beauty to embrace to any bride!

We hired Micaela for our wedding in October. She was AMAZING! Very communicative and honored all of our wishes. My wife and I don’t ever wear makeup and she was great with explaini...
ng what could be done, what could be different and what things were used for. The trial was great as she started with a natural and would go a step up just to see what we liked best. She was at the venue on time and had no hesitation starting immediately. I had a total of 4 bridesmaids and myself (the bride) that she did amazing with. She even went to my wife’s location to help the other makeup artist since they had more people that wanted make up. She gave us all extra little things to help keep up with lips, shine, etc. throughout the day. She was very personable and friendly. We loved everything about and so glad with everything she did!
Micaela is absolutely PHENOMENAL and I am so glad I chose her as my makeup artist for my wedding day. I’m usually not comfortable with others doing my makeup because I am extremely...
picky. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Micaela for 10+ years, so I knew she had some of those “perfectionist” traits that you want in a makeup artist. She was extremely attentive to all the fine details. She was able to combine different aspects from multiple inspo pics and work with me to achieve the exact makeup look I had in mind. During our bridal consultation, she assessed my skin and gave me some amazing skincare tips that I still practice to this day, and my skin has never been happier. She checked in with me multiple times leading up to my wedding day to ensure we stayed on the same page. She was able to pivot quickly and respond to unforeseen changes in our schedule (thanks COVID), and she did so gracefully. I am a bit of a control freak, but when it came to makeup, I knew she had everything under control and I was able to sit back and relax!
She did my wedding make up and a few of my bridesmaids and I was so happy with the work she did! I felt so beautiful and my girls looked amazing! She was a joy to work with and I w...

lso is very flexible and was able to make last minute adjustments as needed. Everyone who got their make up done was very happy with the results! Definitely would recommend beauty to embrace.
Micaela was amazing!!!! She made my bridesmaids and I feel so beautiful! I can not recommend her enough if you get the opportunity to work with her I would not pass it up!
I loved working with Michaela! I'm not versed in technical terms for most make-up ideas, but I had a vision and I had an inspiration photo and she transformed me! I felt so beautif...
ul! She also was a big part in making my wedding day as stress free as possible. She beautified me, two bridesmaids, and my step-mother. She helped plan the timeline to get all four looks done which was something I honestly hadn't considered with everything else going on!
I don't wear a lot of make up in my normal life and making sure I looked wedding-day-ready but still like myself was really important to me. I first worked with Micaela @ Beauty t...
o Embrace to do my engagement photo makeup and she was able to do that so perfectly, I was thrilled she'd work with me for my wedding day as well!
Micaela had great suggestions on looks that would work for me and I LOVED my wedding day look. She was amazing with my whole bridal party - made them feel special, beautiful, and look uniquely themselves. A few of my bridesmaids had had awful experiences in the past with wedding makeup artists, but everyone loved working with Micaela. No complaints - only best recommendations for working with Beauty to Embrace!

l and really customized my makeup how I wanted it, which I’ve found isn’t all that common when it comes to makeup artists. I didn’t want to cover my freckles but wanted some contouring, which sounds impossible, but she was able to manage it and I have truly never felt more beautiful in my life. She also stepped up in more ways than one on the wedding day, going above and beyond. I cannot recommend her enough!
I have had the opportunity for Micaela to do my makeup and I have been very or satisfied with the resuslts. Micaela know what my mature skin needed. I will be using Micaela for a...
