Shelley and Laura were amazing! They both asked lots of questions to make sure we got what we were wanting! Laura went above and beyond! Highly impressed!!
Before the Veil knows how to make a girl feel like her best self! Our hair and makeup girls were so helpful, friendly, and provided the greatest confidence boost to me and my girls throughout the day. Before the big day and I was in the planning phase, they were so patient with everything I asked and especially patient with trying to coordinate our timeline and who needs to be ready at which time. Through all the nerves I experienced throughout the day, they helped me stay calm and contributed to all of the many conversations we had during our time. I will recommend them to anyone who needs services!
Amanda provided us Emily for Makeup and Macy for hair - both girls completely went beyond our expectations. Macy was extremely efficient in the amount of time it took to do hair and she perfectly recreated the hairstyle in the picture I showed her for my bridal hair inspiration. I got so many compliments. Emily took her time with each makeup application in the best way possible asking questions to make sure everyone was happy along the way. We all felt like total bombshells after we were done. The makeup and hair also lasted ALL DAY in the mid-august heat of an outdoor wedding. A million percent I would recommend using Before the Veil for your wedding day and honestly any event I need makeup for in the future.
Any questions?
Amanda and Shelley were amazing! (I forget the other 2 girls' names that was with them that day, I am so sorry!) They are so talented, the makeup was perfect, stayed on the whole night, and the hair was perfect as well! Super professional, fun to talk to, and made the day fun- bridesmaids and moms raved about their hair and makeup!
Amanda and her team were AMAZING! They were so professional, fun and really great at making us feel and look beautiful! We could not be happier with how our hair and makeup looked for the wedding and stayed in place and on point the entire day! Highly recommend!!!
Before the veil did amazing! My hair and makeup looked great and stayed all day! They were accommodating with all my changes and helpful with suggestions when I didn't really know what I wanted. They were very professional on the day of my wedding and my sisters loved their hair and makeup too. Very happy I booked with Before the Veil!
I couldn’t be happier with my makeup! Myself and 4 others from my bridal party also got their makeup done. Amanda was very nice and did a wonderful job on everyone. She managed her tune well and made the experience very nice and easy.
Shelley and Amanda are a DREAM team. I used Before the Veil for both my engagement photos and for our wedding. I absolutely loved working with them! I felt so beautiful for our engagement photos and on my wedding day! They were fun, professional and patient with us on a busy wedding day. All of makeup looked beautiful and natural & Shelley is the Braid Queen! I highly recommend Before the Veil!
Amanda is so professional and her makeup skills are unmatched. I have used her for my wedding and photo shoots times and will continue to use her as my make up artist! I couldn’t recommend her enough. If I could tattoo her work on my face to have it permanently I would!!
Amanda, Shelley and Jenny did a phenomenal job on my bridal party, mother's and bride makeup! They were so fun to work with, nice to talk to and very professional. Amanda was great at corresponding for my trial, wedding day schedule and any general questions. The team was ahead of schedule with 12 services to do and were able to do makeup and hair on a variety of skin and hair types. Our makeup lasted all day & even my husband said he was so glad we booked Before the Veil because we all felt so confident and beautiful! Highly recommend!
Amanda and her team were absolutely amazing. Totally professional and made my "getting ready" time relaxing and fun. Myself and my bridesmaids looked stunning.
Amanda and her partners are INCREDIBLE! They beautifully brought my vision to life for my wedding hair and makeup, and also did a wonderful job on my mother and bridesmaids. They were also super friendly and fun to talk to, which made the getting ready process go really smoothly.
A day or so before the wedding, Amanda let me know she wouldn't be able to make it due to a family emergency, but she immediately found a replacement makeup artist to send in her place who did an incredible job. So if you book Before the Veil you will definitely be in good hands!! I can't recommend them enough!
I had Amanda & shelli do my makeup for my wedding & then a few days later for couples portraits. They are amazing!!! I felt absolutely beautiful & my hair and makeup lasted all night. I had 2 bridesmaids who love to glam, and 1 who doesn’t really wear makeup at all, and everyone looked gorgeous. I cannot say enough good things about them. I would without question use them again if I needed my hair and makeup professionally done
I highly recommend booking the Before The Veil team for your wedding! The entire planning process was so easy and Amanda was always super responsive. The bridal party had a quick window before photos and the team showed up on time and were so much fun to get ready with. I only wish they could have stayed and partied at the wedding with us! All the ladies that helped us the day of the wedding did such a great job! We can't thank the team enough for making us all feel flawless on that special day!
Amanda and Shelly were amazing! They are knowledgeable and know what looks good and what doesn’t on each person. My hair and makeup looked exactly like I was hoping it would and I couldn’t be happier!
The hair and makeup at my wedding from Before the Veil was nothing short of perfect! All 11 of us that got our makeup done looked better than ever! Amanda and Shelby listened to what each of us wanted and also put there input where necessary to make us look our best. Everyone looked flawless and stood out perfectly. Shelly and team also did amazing on everyone's hair. My hair has issues holding normally and it still looked perfect by the end of the almost 12 hour day! I would use them again for any event and highly recommend for wedding HAMU. So easy to work with!

Thank you so much, Megan! We truly enjoyed spending the morning with you and your bridal party. It was such a pleasure to work with you. Thank you for allowing us to be a apart of your special day. Congratulations again! ❤️
Love the entire team of ladies with Before the Veil!!! My bridesmaids looked so beautiful on our wedding day! I personally LOVED both my hair and makeup! They nailed exactly the look I was envisioning for my wedding day!! Not only that, but they were amazing to work with while getting ready - they helped keep the mood and vibe going while still staying professional and getting everyone ready on time! I couldn’t have been happier with this group!
Amanda and her team is AMAZING! My bridal make up was perfection. Amanda gave me exactly what I wanted and made sure I liked the look as we went along. I felt so comfortable with her doing my make up and she was very COVID-conscious which we really appreciated. She also did my mom’s make up and it was stunning. Having mature skin, my mom was worried it would be difficult to make her look great, but Amanda is so skilled! We wish we could have her do our make up every day!
Shelley did the most beautiful hairstyle and I was so pleased with the outcome. She also took the time to discuss my vision and executed it flawlessly. My maid of honor’s hairstyle was also gorgeous and she was very pleased!
Definitely hire BTV for your wedding makeup and hair! You will not be disappointed!
These ladies were fantastic. Shelly, Shelby, and Kelly made my wedding day great. My 4 daughters loved their hair too! We all felt so “bridal”.
Response from the Vendor on 10/23/2020
Thank you, Melany :) You are absolutely gorgeous. The team had a wonderful time with you and I’m so happy everyone loved their looks! Cant wait for photos.
I had my bridal party's makeup and hair done by Before The Veil and we each loved all their work and planning up to the day Amanda was fantastic to work & communicate with - she was always prompt on returning my correspondence and so kind! Shelby did our makeup and I absolutely adored my look, I did have her do a trial on me prior to the day and so we were able to really nail my makeup for the big day. Shelby did our hair and while we didn't do a trial beforehand, she really listened and paid attention to the pictures of inspiration I brought to show her - my hair and makeup were spot on for what I had envisioned (the absolute most beautiful version of myself!) I am so happy I hired Before the Veil!
Highly recommend Amanda and her team.!!We worked with Shelby for my wedding who did an excellent job!! She was punctual, very sweet, and very easy to work with as well as followed the style of makeup each of my bridal party wanted! Also, I appreciated how well Amanda followed up with me via email prior to the wedding to make sure all went well! 5 Stars!! Thanks ladies!
I loved Amanda and her team! They did a great job at my wedding and were very accommodating. I had a total of 9 people get make up and hair and because my ceremony was at 11, we had to be up SUPER early. We were all done before 10am. Our make up and hair was beautiful and it lasted all day( my wedding ended at 1am). I definitely recommend them for your wedding as they listen to everything you ask for. I actually didn’t get to have a trial run and even without it everything was great. She was available and answering questions about extensions days before the day. I’m so glad I went with them for all my hair and makeup and will for sure go to Amanda for any make up needs I have!
Amanda is an absolutely wonderful person to work with and does beautiful work! She was a joy to be with and truly created a happy, yet professional environment while getting ready. The morning of your wedding can be stressful and anxiety inducing, so being with people that are calm, cool and collected (and funny!) really helps.
She did makeup for me, my bridesmaids, mothers, a grandmother and a touch of sweet makeup for the flower girl. She also did the makeup for my portrait which we treated as a trial run for wedding. She is so talented and did phenomenal work!

Thank you Sara! It was a privilege to be there for you, your family and bridal party on your special day.
Amanda is a wonderful person and an even more wonderful makeup artist. Amanda did my makeup for both my engagement photos and my wedding and she was always on time, down for new ideas, and so fun to be around. I would highly recommend her to any bride or anyone just wanting to feel beautiful.
Response from the Vendor on 04/02/2020
Thank you so much!! I had SO much fun working with you, you were truly amazing to work with. I was incredibly honored to be there for your big day. One of the most beautiful ceremony’s I have ever seen. Your bridesmaids and Mother were a plea...
sure to work with, all of the photos are just beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️
Amanda is hands-down one of the best and professional hair/makeup artist I know! As a photographer I’ve worked with many other artist and they don’t come close to comparing with her!
Clients constantly rave about their experience with Amanda! As do I!
When Amanda has personally done my makeup and hair I was blown away with her ability hear my vision and also bring her own artistic touch!
She takes in all considerations of your special event and details of the day ahead of you to make sure your H&MU looks Ah-maxing ALL day! To advice on colors to artistic talent to great conversation — Amanda is NO-DOUBT your girl!
Response from the Vendor on 04/02/2020
Thank you so much!!! I always love making magic with you ❤️
I’m so happy we found Before the Veil! I was looking for a makeup artist with a cruelty-free and preferably vegan kit -- apparently a tall order in the makeup world -- and was lucky to have found Amanda! My wedding was in Austin, which meant we didn’t do a trial run before the actual event, but both my hair and makeup turned out exactly how I was envisioning. Amanda nailed the rose gold glam I was hoping for! She was totally down to chat about the products she recommended and what my shade was in complexion products.
My wedding day had some unexpected twists and turns and Amanda and her team were compassionate and flexible, and managed to fit SO much work into a very crunched timeline. I am so happy with my decision to hire Before the Veil!
Response from the Vendor on 03/23/2020
Mia! Thank you so much. I absolutely loved meeting you and being apart of your day.
Amanda was beyond amazing with her communication and work. She was super flexible the day of my wedding and made my bridesmaids and I look so beautiful. I am so happy every time I look at my wedding photos. I would recommend Amanda to anyone and can’t wait for another special occasion to book her again! ❤️
I 100 percent recommend Amanda for make up. She was punctual showing up early even to set up, made me feel very confident in myself, and my make up looked effortlessly flawless while still looking like my best self. I will use her in the future for all events not just this wedding.
Amanda and Shelley did a phenomenal job with our hair and make-up! I wanted a natural look but enough to stand out in my wedding day. Not many make-up artist are able to pull it off but Amanda did an AMAZING job! It was more than what I expected! All my bridesmaids looked beautiful and our hair styles were great! Amanda and Shelley were professional, fun, and easy to talk to! Will definitely use them for other events in the future.
Thank you so much Amanda and Shelley!
Amanda (makeup) and Shelley (hair) were amazing to work with for my wedding day. S
They worked with all my bridesmaids, my mom, mother in law and myself and made all of us look amazing. They were both so
easy to talk to, helped all of us look our best in the middle of a crazy thunder storm and seriously felt like friends by the end of the day. I would 1000% recommend to anyone in their area!
Amanda is an artist and every time she does my make up I feel my absolute best! I highly recommend her for any event that you are needing professional make up! She is easy to communicate with and so professional, you will not be disappointed!
While I have not had Amanda do my make up for my wedding (I met her way after!) I have had her to my make up for numerous events and parties. Amanda is very talented and listens to your requests. I like a more natural look, and she makes your face look flawless and not overdone! She is very professional, always on time. Amanda is passionate about her work, and it shows! Highly recommend her for wedding or any occasion!
Response from the Vendor on 12/26/2019
Thank you for always trusting me! I appreciate you.
Amanda was amazing to work with! Very kind and professional! I had never had my makeup professionally done before and wanted to keep a relatively natural look for my wedding. I shared with her my makeup vision and she executed it perfectly. I felt confident and beautiful, and I received many compliments on my makeup. It also lasted all day! Since my face is super oily, she left my maid of honor some powder that I could use throughout the day to control the shine. Amanda was also flexible with time and adjusted to make sure we all got ready in time. She made my wedding makeup dreams come true!
Response from the Vendor on 12/08/2019
Thank you so much!! You were a dream to work with! Congratulations again :)
Amanda was amazing!
I spoke to her on the phone and we were able to talk about what I wanted exactly. I sent her inspo pictures and we communicated through out the time until it was the time for my wedding.
She helped me feel comfortable, gave me suggestions but above all did everything I wanted for the look I wanted for that day.
I absolutely loved it, super grateful to have met her and to have had the opportunity to have her do my wedding make up!
Your make up will look great in person and in pictures !
Response from the Vendor on 12/08/2019
Thank you, Juliana! You were absolutely stunning and we loved working with you!
Amanda is AMAZING! Not only is she insanely talented, but she's incredibly sweet and made me feel so comfortable. She listened to all of my concerns about how I wanted my makeup day-of to look and executed it with a precision I'm still floored by. She made all of my bridesmaids look incredible and she made sure they were comfortable with their makeup as well which I really appreciated! I've been a bridesmaid in so many weddings and felt like a stranger to myself when I got out of the makeup chair. So to know they all felt happy and beautiful made me so happy. As for coverage, she used traditional application and did so much amazing color-correction work (on me at least) the makeup felt SO light and comfortable but lasted all day! I was shocked we didn't have to use airbrushing but Amanda is just that amazing! Book her, I promise you'll be so so glad you did.

Thank you, Rebecca!! I loved working with you.
Amanda was an absolute pleasure to work with! She is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Planning a wedding in Texas from California was not easy at all but she was so helpful and accommodating with scheduling a trial around the couple of days I was in town. Not many people will open up their house for a makeup trial, but she did and it speaks volumes about the type of person she is. Amanda made sure I loved everything and was able to excute the exact look I dreamed about for my wedding day. I felt absolutely radiant and beautiful the entire day! (As did my bridesmaids, mom and MIL.) All night, people were commenting on how beautiful all of our makeup looked and how natural it was. Stressing over your makeup is not something you’ll have to worry about for your big day if you book with Amanda! She will make you feel so so beautiful and you will have such a wonderful time working with her!
Amanda was an absolute dream to work with and so accommodating to the makeup vision I had for my big day! She is extremely talented and personable. She made me feel comfortable and beautiful from the first day we met for my trial makeup, To bridal photos to my make up for our wedding day! (Even with the humidity and rain my makeup stayed intact the whole night!) My bridesmaids all loved her and her team as well and said it was one of the best bridesmaids makeup experiences any of them had had! I would 100% recommend them (Specifically Amanda and Misty!) to any bride to be. You will be in great hands!! With all of the stresses that can come up on your wedding day don’t let your hair and make up be one of them, Amanda and Misty made this so easy and enjoyable from start to finish!
I met Amanda over 9 years ago when she worked at MAC and have referred multiple friends to her for weddings and events. She is always punctual, professional and very clean. She is extremely friendly and has a wonderful way of putting people at ease on stressful days. Her work is obviously incredible as well, she knows how to accent the best features of a person. I recommend her to everyone looking for a makeup artist.
Amanda is absolutely incredible!!! My face and makeup always look so good after she does my makeup. I originally met her when I was the maid of honor is my best friend wedding and she did everyone’s makeup. She is highly skilled and I always get compliments every time she does my makeup. She is so professional and I highly recommend for any wedding!
Amazing hair and makeup! I LOVED the way I looked for my wedding! I highly recommend them!
Before the Veil was instrumental not only on wedding day but also for our engagement photos and my bridals. The team was prompt to respond, flexible with schedules when organizing photos and the wedding day. Each member of my wedding party commented on how personable the stylist were and how their craft was superb. I would recommend the Beyond The Veil team to any bride looking to add the best team for their wedding day.
Amanda is amazing and super nice! I booked her through all the great reviews she had. I initially called her for our engagement pictures so she could do my makeup. I didn’t even need a trial run since her work speaks for itself. I was so happy with my makeup for the engagement pictures I immediately booked her for our wedding. Amanda is a true professional and knows her makeup. She knows what will pair good with your face and she takes into consideration the look you are going for. I received so many wonderful comments about my makeup. I would recommend Amanda 100xs over and over again!
My fabulous hair was done by Shelley. Amanda and Shelley work together sometimes and that is how I knew about Shelley. Let me say Shelley did a fantastic job on my hair. She did my hair for my engagement pictures and wedding. She nailed the look I wanted!
Thank you Amanda and Shelley for everything!
Amanda is amazing! She did my sister's and my make up about a year ago for my sister's wedding. We loved her so much that we asked her to come back for my big day too! She arrived early, listened to exactly what we all wanted, and created the exact natural look that I was going for. As someone who normally wears only mascara, it was important to me to not lose that natural look I love so much. The make up lasted all day, even in the heat during our pictures. Highly recommend!
Response from the Vendor on 05/27/2019
Thank you so much! I was honored to be called back for your special day. You, your mom and sister are so great and I really enjoyed working with you all again. Thank you for making me feel welcome in your family’s home. I can’t wait for the pho...
tos!
Amanda did my makeup about a year ago for my wedding and we were all so impressed, we had her do my sister's wedding as well!! The makeup looks very natural and came out smoothly for photos. She is also extremely personable and listens to exactly what you want. Excellent work, highly recommend!!
Response from the Vendor on 05/27/2019
Cara! I am so happy to hear you were impressed with your make up! You and your bridal party were so great to work with. It was so wonderful to see you again and be apart of your sisters big day. Thank you so much!
Amanda is truly the best makeup artist I have ever seen. I own a salon so when it came to picking my beauty team for my wedding I had to chose the best. She took her time and truly made me feel like the best version of my self. She has the calmest and sweetest personality which was exactly what I needed! If she isn’t booked for your big day your missing out BIG!!
Response from the Vendor on 05/27/2019
Thanks you so much Bri. It was an honor that you chose ME! Looking forward to working with you again.
Wow! Amanda was beyond amazing! She made myself and my bridesmaid feel absolutely beautiful! Our makeup lasted all day/night. She made the getting ready process super smooth and fun! We loved our hair too!!! We would recommend to anyone who needs hair and/or makeup! She was very professional and responsive to all contacts.
Amanda was absolutely perfect for our Destination Wedding Weekend!
Honestly, I'm devastated we don't live closer!! ;)
Amanda did 4 different looks for me as well as brought a team member to help with bridesmaids & family on the actual wedding day. All niceness (which is important) aside, her makeup skills were stellar. She immediately noticed the shape of my eyes are did shadowing to make them pop! My wedding photographer noticed immediately.
I would absolutely recommend Amanda for wedding makeup and whatever other event you may have. I'll be trying to get her to fly my way for my next photo shoot! ~J
Amanda made me look absolutely perfect for my wedding day. She also did my makeup for my bridal portraits and I was blown away. I am very particular about my makeup because my eyebrows are a bit tricky! Amanda is so kind and sweet and worked with me to achieve the perfect look for my special day.
I honestly wish she could come over every day to make me look like a princess! I can't wait to work with her again!
Amanda is amazing!! Her talent is undeniable, but she is also one of the nicest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Amanda is quick to respond to emails, which helps take stress off of a bride. On the day of our wedding, Amanda and her teammate were put in the unfortunate position of trying to work with us on some last minute scheduling changes, and she was amazing at adjusting and going with the flow of things. I felt absolutely GORGEOUS on my wedding day thanks to Amanda, and so did my mother, MIL, and bridal party. My mom could not stop raving about how great Amanda was and how beautiful she felt! I received so many compliments that day from guests on how pretty I looked, and I continue to receive compliments when people see our wedding photos. Amanda will make you feel beautiful, and you will truly have fun working with her. She is more than worth it - book Amanda now!
Response from the Vendor on 01/23/2019
Thank you so much for the review and for having us there on your big day!! I’m so glad everyone loved it. You were a gorgeous bride, can’t wait to see more photos!
Amanda did such an amazing job, it’s the first time I’ve ever had my makeup done that I actually LOVED it. She did my makeup for a wedding at 9 am, and when I was leaving the wedding at midnight it still looked awesome! I highly recommend if you’re getting married you hire Amanda as your makeup artist, you won’t be disappointed!!!
Throughout the entire wedding planning process, I was faced with a lot of overwhelming and difficult decisions. But, when deciding on who was going to be my makeup artist for the wedding, choosing Amanda was one of the easiest and best decision I could have ever made. She has a natural talent for makeup application, was able to pull off exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding day.
Amanda is one of the most genuine, sweet, easy-going, and insanely talented people I’ve ever met - and has a way of making the whole process enjoyable, natural, and FUN! She was so professional yet easygoing and relaxed. On wedding day, Amanda arrived early and was such a calming and fun influence on me and my matron of honor. I was concerned because I barely slept the night before you would never know it -- her ability to create that 'bridal glow' is nothing short of magic and I have never felt more beautiful (or awake!). She made me feel calm and secure that I would look amazing… and I did! I had a relaxing moment in an extraordinarily hectic day while and I was so happy with the way my makeup turned out. Amanda is simply the best!! My wedding day make-up not only looked stunning and perfect with my gown, but also lasted the ENTIRE night (even after shedding quite a few years) - To the point where when I got back to the hotel around 2:30am, it still looked amazing and I did not want to take it off. She's that good.
Amanda is fantastic at what she does and an absolute pleasure to spend time with--My wedding look was everything I could have hoped for and more, and I was so thankful that Amanda was a part of making my day feel incredibly special. I highly recommend Amanda and can't wait to work with her again soon. Hiring her will be one of the best decisions you will make!
My make-up was flawless! Amanda has a gift. She made me look like the best version of myself. I was confident and my make stayed perfect for over 12 hours. I highly recommend her.
I have been in several weddings with all of my childhood best friends getting married and I have had Amanda do my bridesmaids make up in every single wedding I’ve been in. She is seriously the best. I ask for her every time I know the bride books her. She listens to what you like, what you don’t like. She will also ask you how dramatic you like your eye shadow, blush, eye liner, basically whatever you can think of! She is very thorough with her brush cleaning and making sure she never double dips her mascara and lip color wands! Another plus is she makes sure you either want or don’t want a touch up before she packs up to leave. Gives you a chance to see how everyone else’s faces look and if you want a little more of this or that. I LOVE that. She is amazing at applying make up for girls who don’t wear a lot of make up usually and girls like me who like it known they have make up on! 5 out of 5 stars you won’t regret booking her for your special day!!!
I am by far the pickiest when it comes to my makeup. I mean, who knows your face better than you? Well, Amanda. Amanda does. She was the ONLY person I considered hiring for my big day. I mean, after my trial, my future husband turned to me, bright eyed, and said "you look amazing." She was SO attentive, made me feel SO comfortable with her, and listened to EXACTLY what I wanted. Sometimes its hard to ask any artist to tweek their work, but Amanda opens the floor for it before you even get the chance to ask. She'll ask you, "is there anything else you might want?." My skin looked flawless the day of and my eye makeup suited my face. She just has the eye for it and that is so hard to come by. I cannot rant and rave enough about her. I have a MUA for life now. So happy to have found her. Thank you Amanda! :)
Never felt so beautiful! Amanda and Shelley can do it all! Wish they could do my hair and makeup on the daily, it was flawless! Recommend to everyone I know!!!!
I can’t say enough good things about Amanda! So down to earth, easy to talk to, it’s like your long time BFF..... and her work...her WORK! Best in Dallas hands down. I’m a model in the DFW area, so I’ve had tons of experiences with MUA’s. She’s hands down one of the best and I just loved my make-up!!!!! Can’t wait to work with Amanda again soon!
I met Amanda as a bridesmaid in a wedding. She did such amazing job that I have continued to use her at least 6-10 times a year for events. If you are looking for that absolutely flawless contoured face but yet not caked on she is your woman! She one of the best make-up artist I have ever used, which is saying something as I have had numerous artist including Trish McEvoy herself do my makeup. Beyond that she is prompt, kind hearted, and a joy to be around.
Amanda has to be one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She did my makeup at a wedding I was in and I absolutely felt so beautiful. I knew that day that she had to be the woman for my special day, so I booked her right away. It really is a huge task to make a bride look and feel the way she has dreamt of looking and feeling on her special day, and she executed it perfectly. I got amazing feedback from my bridesmaids who also got their makeup done by her and they, too, felt so beautiful! She really can execute any look you’re going for. You get a sense of who Amanda is right away and I would say without a doubt that she’s a super genuine and honest person. She’s also very professional, always on time, very responsive to text/emails, and all around just has it together. I can’t wait to find an excuse to have her do my makeup again soon! She’s simply the best!
Amanda is so professional and made my skin look absolutely flawless! She was early for all appointments and really worked with me to bring my vision to life! I highly recommend using her for all things wedding related!
Amanda did my wedding makeup and It was such a great experience!! She is so knowledgable about al things beauty and SO sweet. I will absolutely recommend her and use her for any and every makeup occasion!
Amanda nailed my makeup for my bridal and wedding looks. She truly made me feel like a million bucks. I would recommend her 100x over to anyone and everyone needing special occasion makeup.
Amanda is great. If you’re looking for a make up artist that listens to what you want, is prompt and on time, affordable, and can do any make up look under the sun, this is your woman! She was so easy to work with and I am recommending her to every bride I come in to contact with. She takes pride in what she does, she is VERY sanitary— which you don’t always get from MUAs and so sweet and just all around wonderful. Look no further, you found your artist!
I can not say enough great things about Amanda, or the work she does!! She did my makeup, as well as my bridesmaids for my wedding 2 years ago, and since then I’ve continued to request her for family portraits, friend’s weddings, etc. My bridesmaids, and their friends have also requested her for weddings, charity events, parties, etc. Amanda is incredible, she is able to give you this beautiful glow without feeling like you have a ton of makeup caked onto your face. You feel lightweight and beautiful, and what more could you ask for on your big day!! I look back at my wedding pictures, and look like the best version of myself Britney versus someone completely unrecognizable. She is incredibly sweet, responsive, and knows how to work with your colors, tones, and skin. She’s also affordable and accommodating. I can’t recommend her enough for your special day!!
Amanda and Holly did an absolutely amazing job on my wedding day! They were very patient and made all of my bridesmaids and myself look stunning! I couldn’t have asked for any better!! Thank you so much Amanda! 💜💜
Amanda was great! She was really professional and showed up on time. She knew exactly what I was asking for and executed it perfectly. She was super easy going and made my wedding day very pleasant. I would highly reccomend her!
Amanda is the best ever- simple as that. She’s prompt, thorough, detailed, and extremely talented. She was super flexible when I needed to reschedule my bridal portraits due to weather constraints, and coordinated with our wedding coordinator to guarantee everyone’s makeup was complete according to our schedule. I’ve had other MUAs do my makeup before, but Amanda’s technique exceeds all others. I wish she could do my makeup everyday!!
I have been a Bridesmaid twice and used Amanda for makeup! She is hands down the best!
Amanda is AWESOME!!! I am TERRIFIED of getting my makeup done, because it always looks so fake and I never feel like myself. But she listened to everything I wanted, and everything came out perfectly! I wanted a more natural, but still made up look, and she did just that.
I HIGHLY recommend her! She was highly responsive, on-time, and super easy to work with.
My bridal party also looked amazingggg!

Thank you so much! I enjoyed getting to know you and your bridal party! Such awesome ladies. You looked absolutely stunning, thank you again for choosing us to be apart of your day!
Amanda was the best makeup artist hands down! She did makeup for both my engagement pictures and wedding day. We had to schedule our engagements picture pretty last minute because my photographer was in between traveling and Amanda was extremely flexible and was able to fit me in on a short notice. I usually wear very light makeup so Amanda took into account all my concerns about not wanting to look extremely different but still capturing a natural look that would make me feel bomb AF for both my engagement pics and wedding day! Her and her assistant did all my bridesmaids makeup as well and we had zero complaints. I’ve actually had multiple people on social media ask for her information because they loved all of our looks. They both cared for each individual bridesmaid and would account for any questions or concerns they had. I opted not to have a hairstylist because my bridesmaids knew we could help on each others hair and since Amanda finished up a bit earlier than planned she offered to jump in and help a couple of us with that as well. She even gave us tips and advice on makeup for our everyday looks. I cannot express enough how amazing she was and how beautiful she made all of us feel! She’s truly an expert in the beauty field!

Fantasia! Thank you so much 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 I love your vibe, your wedding was insanely gorgeous. I am so grateful to have been apart of your day and look forward to working together again.
I can't say enough good things about Before the Veil! Amanda did my bridal makeup, as well as my bridesmaids and MOB's. She can do any style of makeup, but what makes her the best is that she actually listens to each person's individual preferences. I did two makeup trials with other companies and felt like they didn't listen to anything I said. When I did my trial with Amanda she listened to my ideas and put all my fears to rest.
I wanted a natural look with a little bit of pop, and she blew my expectations out of the water. A few of my bridesmaids wanted their makeup to be a little more done up, and Amanda executed flawlessly. They can do it all and they are very easy going.
I highly recommend Before the Veil for your big day!
Amanda is an amazing makeup artist on all platforms! She takes time to listen to the dream makeup you envision on your dream day and nails it! I would trust her with my makeup for any occaison at this point with out even having a trial run. Punctual, professional, and keeps all her makeup and utensils clean. I love her work so much!

Thank you Amanda for trusting me for any event.
As we all know one of the most important things about preparing for the wedding day is making sure we look and feel ABSOLUTELY Beautiful when we walk down the isle to the man we're about to say "I do" to!! I must say I have never felt more Gorgeous than I did on my wedding day and I have Misty, Amanda + the whole team of ladies they brought to thank for that!!
From the moment the day started they were there promptly + on time to our what seemed like forever + far away venue! I arrived with 4 of my 10 bridesmaids already seated + getting their makeup + hair done!! I was pretty specific in the look I wanted for each woman from makeup to hair + they completely nailed my expectations!!
My mom was so nervous to have her hair + makeup done because she won't ever let anyone do hers except herself lol but after I had worked with Amanda + Misty for both my engagement photo's + my bridals she was sold on how great they were + gave them a shot + I must say my mom looked absolutely flawless as did the rest of my bridal party!!
My now husband :) was in love with how beautiful they made me look on our big day!! They did so good on my makeup + hair that (I'm a little embarrassed to say) I even slept with my makeup on + hair down + woke up the next morning still looking like the day before lol TRUE STORY!! Hey every girl wants to still feel like she did the night of her wedding the next day haha!!
Thank you ladies for making me feel + look like a Princess on my wedding day!! I couldn't have asked for a better team to have have made me + all my possy feel + look as beautiful as you all did!! From positive attitudes, affordable prices, timeliness to the worlds greatest skills you went over + beyond what I could've imagined!! Can't wait till the next big event for you to make me feel just as gorgeous as I did on the Best day of my whole life!!
Love Britt D.
What can I say about Amanda besides the fact that she is a true artist and the most talented makeup artist I have had the pleasure of meeting. To say that I am incredibly picky about who I let touch my face would be an understatement. My makeup was the MOST important thing to me for my wedding and I did no less than 6 trials with different makeup artists before I found Amanda. And from the first time we talked and I sent her pictures of the wedding look I was going for, she got it. I remember texting my now husband : ) and being so excited saying "OMG I THINK I FOUND MY MAKEUP ARTIST! SHE JUST GETS IT!!!!" I couldn't wait to do my trial with her to see if my instinct was right. And it was! She is the makeup dream team. I have never felt or looked so beautiful in my life thanks to this amazing and talented woman. I'm now looking for any excuse I can to have her do my makeup again. She will be the only one from here on that I will ever let touch my face. Uh words can NOT describe this woman's gifts. And I feel so incredibly lucky to have found her.

Wow thank you Lauren! I had a wonderful time getting you all ready. It’s always an honor to be chosen to work with a Bride! Thank you for trusting me with your gorgeous face :)
Amanda is AMAZING. She is an incredibly talented makeup artist. Her pricing is reasonable and she is willing to travel. She also has contacts for hair as well! She was so fun to work with and gave me exactly what I was wanting for my special day. I highly recommend Amanda. 10 out of 10 all day every day!

Thank you Tiffany!! I absolutely loved working with you!
Amanda is incredible! My mom, mother-in-law, bridesmaids, and I looked gorgeous! I have terrible skin which she somehow made look flawless!
We also used her hairstylist, Shelley, who is equally as amazing! We all looked beautiful all night long without any touch ups!
Amanda and Shelley are super responsive and easy to work with. They had us all ready 15 minutes earlier than promised and even fit in our tiny diva of a flower girl :)
I cannot stop staring at pictures of myself. I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day!
Amanda was so easy to work with and everyone loved the way they looked. My friends and I are not huge makeup people and Amanda listened to us and made everyone look incredible! I would recommend her to anyone!
Amanda is truly a makeup Goddess and an amazing artist!! She was able to give me the exact bridal look I wanted and it stayed on after crying my way through my husbands letter, pictures and dancing!! She also has an awesome personality and her response time is super quick! Absolutely my favorite!
I hired Amanda to do my bridal make-up and I couldn't have been more happier with the results. She is pleasant, very professional and super talented. She kept in communication with me from day one. She listened to what I wanted and delivered. My mom and bridesmaids were also very happy with her work. I truly felt like a million bucks on my wedding day thanks to Amanda and her team. She's a total doll!!
Amanda was such a gift! Not only did she do my makeup for my boudoir shoot, she made me feel so gorgeous I had to have her for my big day. I was so lucky she was free! She was so professional and was able to make me, my bridesmaids, and my mom look and feel beautiful! She came prepared for all skin types and took each individual into account to personalize our looks for the camera. For me, it was my eyes (play them up!). For my matron of honor, she loved the lips. Each look was perfect, and I will cherish the photos of my big day forever.
Amanda did my wedding makeup on 9/2/17 and was amazing!!! I have never felt more beautiful in my life. Seriously, my makeup was flawless. She listened to my vision and executed it perfectly. She also did the makeup of my mom, mother of groom, and 5 bridesmaids. They looked stunning. Plus, it doesn't hurt that she's so fun to be around, which is nice when you're nervous on your wedding day! Highly recommend!
Amanda is amazing....by far the best makeup artist that's ever done my makeup. I wish she could do my makeup everyday!
Amanda was absolutely incredible! She spent so much time communicating with me before my wedding day to make sure everything would be perfect when the time came and the work she did was amazing. As much as I hate to admit it, I have a hard time trusting people with my vision. As a wedding photographer, I have seen the ins and outs of the wedding industry and I didn't want anything to go wrong on my wedding day. I had a vision and I didn't want any vendor to disrupt it. I think Amanda could sense my timidity and she made me feel super comfortable and at ease during the whole process. She was also so down-to-earth and easy to talk to which was a huge plus.
I cried when I saw my face for the first time. Amanda took the vision that I had and went above and beyond. I wanted my makeup to look natural and bridal and also to reflect who I was. I was nervous about the fake eyelashes because I had seen them go wrong before.
I was really blown away. Nothing looked fake or over-the-top, but it all looked angelic and bridal. Everyone in that room could see my face light up and I think that's when I was finally able to relax.
I cannot recommend Amanda enough. Her experience, skill and reviews all speak for themselves - and her sweet spirit is an added bonus!
Thank you for EVERYTHING, Amanda!
Loved my makeup!! I felt like such a beautiful bride and she did exactly as I asked and more. She even stepped in to re-curl my hair a bit before I walked down the aisle. Thank you, thank you!!!
Amanda was amazing! From the moment she showed up to do my trial , I was amazed by her talent. She truly loves what she does, and she knows exactly what colors, and style looks best. She did my entire bridal parties makeup, and mine. My bridesmaids absolutely loved their makeup and I was so amazed on how beautiful she made me feel and look. I wish I could have her do my makeup everyday, she is simply amazing at what she does.

You girls were so wonderful and fun to work with!! You were stunning!! I really do love what I do. I would love to do your make up again!
Amanda did an amazing job! I live in NC and had my wedding in Grapevine, TX, and any time I had a question, she was always quick in getting back to me with answers. She addressed each bridesmaid with asking how they wanted their make up to look and I really appreciated that. I felt like a princess after hair and make up all done, and couldn't have been happier with her work. Thank you again Amanda!.
Response from the Vendor on 06/19/2017

Amanda did my makeup for a wedding I attended and she was the most rad down the earth chic! And can I say talented?!! I was super pleased with my full face of makeup that lasted me all day that I dreaded having to take it off! She made me feel like an a-list celebrity the way she perfected the final touches and makes sure she brings her lighting to leave you looking flawless! I def recommended her to all of my girls. Amanda hands down the best makeup artist in the dfw!!! :-)

Thank you for the review Kat! I'm so glad everyone liked their make up. And thank you again for recommending me to your friend!
Amanda did an amazing job on mine and my bridesmaids make up. She was very professional, showed up on time and made us feel beautiful. Her number will forever be saved in my phone for any upcoming events.
Amanda was FABULOUS to work with!!!! I showed her some pictures to give her inspiration, and she did a wonderful job replicating my vision. She made my skin look so flawless, and my eyes popped! She traveled an hour and a half to my venue for me, and was early. It was so nice that she came to the venue for me. It made getting ready a breeze. I highly recommend Amanda, and I would love to have her do my make-up again one day!
Response from the Vendor on 06/01/2017
