Bella Glow Beauty Studio

p artists not knowing how to work with pale skin) so I did a ton of research and loved Krista’s work. She’s very communicative and easy to work with. At my trial, she was super receptive to my requests and created a beautiful look that she duplicated for my wedding. She also super graciously accommodated the final number of bridesmaids who wanted their makeup done and brought her assistant, Jenna, to help on the day of. My bridesmaids were blown away by how great their makeup looked—one of them said her makeup looked even better than her makeup on her own wedding day and one took Krista’s information in hopes to book her for her own wedding! Both Krista and Jenna do incredible work and I am so happy I found Bella Glow. Definitely highly recommend!!

with my Schedule and travel plans. After the trial, I only had one thing I wanted her to do different, showed her a picture of how I wanted it done and BOOM, she did it perfectly. She EXCEEDED my expectations day of my wedding. Not only did I look and feel my absolute best, my bridesmaids were at awe of their makeup too. Even my mom got her makeup done, which is not a normal thing for my mom and she loved how she looked as well. My wedding was 103 degrees and our makeup stayed on very well for how much we were all sweating (and crying). Krista used high end products and was cleanly with all her brushes and applicators. If I could have Krista show me how to do my makeup like that daily, I would. I truly felt so beautiful. Even my husband noticed and was impressed at her ability to enhance my face without making me look like someone completely different. Thank you Krista for making me feel SO BEAUTIFUL on my wedding day.

everything perfectly! Everything was clean and i still looked like me which was a big deal for me going in. I wouldn’t go to anyone else or refer anyone else for my bridal needs.

d I loved having her by my side! 10/10 recommend her for your wedding!!

wless and I couldn’t have been happier but she would have adjusted anything I wanted, had I needed. She was communicative the entire time and her payment platform is extremely easy to use. Fast forward to wedding day and my bridesmaids, MOB & MOG looked absolutely stunning!! They looked like enhanced versions of themselves, and they all felt confident and not overdone. All of them said it was the best professional makeup they’ve ever had. My makeup (bride) was so stunning and exactly what I had wanted and was spot on to what I had done at my trail and loved. Everyone’s skin looked smooth and color matched perfectly, the makeup sat perfectly and lasted ALL DAY & NIGHT. We started at 7:30am and didn’t go to bed until 3am and every single bit of our makeup was still on & amazing somehow. Hire her if you want to look & feel the best!!

alm, kind and so talented! if you’re on the fence about a getting your makeup done in fear you won’t look like yourself, don’t hesitate any further. Krista made us all look so naturally enhanced .. everyone had a smiling face so happy with her work! so appreciative of your talent and thank you again for being YOU!

ioning it to turn out. I was so happy with my trial and feel excited and confident in her skills for my upcoming wedding! Highly recommend!

to learn exactly what I wanted for my wedding day. Things went great for my trial day and she made me look absolutely beautiful on my wedding day! She also took such good care of my mom, who was anxious about getting her makeup done as she doesn’t usually wear makeup. She let my mom come get her makeup done prior to the wedding and on the day of, my mom looked so natural and gorgeous. Would deffo recommend Krista for your wedding day and your pre wedding beauty needs!

at her studio, she made me feel so comfortable and relaxed! The makeup she and Jenna did on the big day was so stunning and beautiful and made us all feel so amazing! She was nothing short of professional, punctual, kind and easy going! I feel like she and Jenna captured what each individual girl envisioned for their makeup in the best way! I cannot recommend her and her business enough any type of event!!! She is the best!

ng before meeting Krista. I love makeup and love doing my own, but have never had a good experience with getting my makeup professionally done. My wife on the other hand does not typically wear makeup, so she was very nervous she wouldn't look like herself. After each of our trials, we knew instantly that we found the best fit with Krista. She was attentive and executed exactly what we were both looking for. We felt the most beautiful we've ever felt, but also looked like ourselves. And we got SO many compliments! Both of our moms and sisters equally loved Krista - they still rave about how wonderful she was to work with and how beautiful they felt. Also, Krista gave me and my sister-in-law a bridal spray tan before the wedding and it was PERFECT! I'm typically very pale, so it was nice to have that extra glow without looking too tan. 1000% recommend Krista - she's an expert and the best! She'll bring your vision to life wonderfully! I hope we can find another way to work together again soon!

a ton of makeup, and she did exactly what I had envisioned while making it look so natural yet elevated. Krista was also a joy to work with and made getting ready a blast. I couldn't recommend her enough. She is the BEST!

t artist that I didn’t like) but I collected photos of her work that I loved and asked her to do something for my skin tone and girl did she deliver! Every time I see my wedding photos, no kidding, I keep saying “Man my makeup looked so good” So good that I’ve recommended her to my other girlfriends that are looking for makeup artists! You’ll really look and feel just so gorgeous.

mpressed with how my makeup looked both in person and on film. It also lasted the entire day and into the night despite me crying (happy tears) all the way through! Krista while being very timely and professional, is also sweet, genuine, and approachable. She even took extra time to include my mom, Anne in my makeup trial and made her feel so special. My bridesmaids and I had the best time bopping to Miracles Happen by Myra with her on the morning of my wedding. We were all so relaxed and happy, and I know they loved their makeup looks as well. The photos speak for themselves! We love you Krista!!!

! I gave her full reigns of my look and it turned out amazing!

o beautiful, and her calming presence put everyone at ease. I also went to her for a spray tan a few days before and it turned out great - and lasted a long time! I was nervous because there were a lot of tears on my wedding day, but the makeup stayed perfect the entire night. 10/10!

n your wedding day. Her style elevates your natural beauty while adding just a touch of glam. The look lasts through it all from regular wear to eating, dancing, and of course those sneaky tears. Thank you Krista for being the best!

re I still felt like myself so I was comfortable at my wedding. She also did all my bridesmaids and they looked amazing!! Everyone’s makeup lasted all day and night without issues. Definitely hire her!

me time. Krista also did my spray tans for my bachelorette and wedding. The tan faded gradually and evenly so it always looked good. Highly recommend!

anted and made sure that I was satisfied with the end result. She has great attention to detail and the end result was exactly what I had dreamed of! Krista is very talented and her work does not disappoint! All of my bridesmaids were also in love with their makeup! Krista also does amazing spray tans on top of being a talented makeup artist! Thank you for making my makeup and tan dreams come true on my special day Krista, you’re amazing!

s before the wedding. I thought there would be no way I could find someone available for my summer wedding who’s work I actually liked! After looking through literally hundreds of makeup artists pages I finally stumbled upon Krista! Her work is absolutely gorgeous and everything I was looking for AND I couldn’t believe it but she was available for my date. I cried happy tears. My maid of honor and I were able to book a spray tan with her the week of the wedding and both agreed it was hands down the best spray tan we’d ever gotten! It lasted through my honeymoon the following week! Getting ready on the big day with Krista and her second artist Teresa was perfection all the way around! Not only were they prompt and joyful to have in the bridal cottage with us while we were getting ready but everyone looked amazing!! I’ve been in a lot of weddings and there are usually at least 1-2 girls not happy with their makeup and that was not the case out of the 12 girls they did. Everyone loved their makeup and looked HOT! I was in school and had quite a full plate leading up to the wedding so never booked a bridal trial and my wedding day makeup was better than I could have dreamed! Bronzed soft glam was on point! Highly recommend Bella Glow Beauty Studio and forever grateful to have found Krista for my big day!

ural, bridal makeup! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to Krista and I cannot thank her enough for her responsiveness, stress-free planning, and amazing work. My bridal party, mom, and I felt amazing on the wedding day and we are so thankful for Krista!

s absolutely incredible for my wedding day. I have never felt so beautiful in my life. She also managed to do my entire bridal party of nine girls, I was so impressed. Everyone's makeup looked flawless!! Look no further and hire Krista!

on my wedding day!

uly obsessed and in love! I truly felt soo beautiful and my skin has never looked better. She even gave me a touch up bag with makeup and blotting pads for the rest of the night, it was truly incredible. I will recommend her to everyone! She’s amazing! 💗

aids and I were obsessed! I had a trial with Krista before the wedding and she was able to perfect the exact look I was going for. Krista goes the extra mile and I just felt so comfortable with her as my makeup artist on the most important day of my life. I was told by so many guests at my wedding how impressed they were with my makeup. I have never felt more beautiful thanks to Krista!

uly such a sweet and kind person. I highly recommend her!

anted it to last me all night! The day of my wedding, she was so calming and helpful, and kept me laughing and spirits high! I could not be happier with how my makeup turned out and the experience that I had with Krista! My makeup lasted me all night AND IT RAINED!! If you’re contemplating using Krista for your big day, DO IT!!! I’m forever grateful for her.

was so professional and efficient. My bridesmaids and I have nothing but the best things to say about her. Krista is an absolute must for your wedding day!!

oto, which was basically "natural glam," and she executed it flawlessly. When I looked in the mirror, I told her my exact thoughts: "This is exactly how I do my make up when I go out - except a billion times better, because it's perfect." Fast forward to the real deal: Krista did my make up on the actual wedding day JUST the way she did during the trial, AMAZING, along with six of my bridesmaids. She was punctual (arrived early), professional, and very kind. All of my bridesmaids were crazy about her and they really looked so, so beautiful. Krista, thank you for making my bridesmaids and I feel like goddesses on my wedding day. It's a day we'll never forget. Consider yourself extremely lucky if Krista is available on your special day. She's a great communicator (always quickly responsive via email, took time to call me ahead of the wedding day to discuss wedding day timeline etc) and very talented at what she does. When planning your wedding day, having vendors who you know you can depend on makes a world of difference. Put your mind at ease and book Bella Glow :)

CT and so was my mom's and my bridesmaids. So natural but special and I felt like a total princess and the most beautiful bride. I loved working with her and would highly recommend to anyone who is getting married or has an event in the area. She is amazing. She also did my spray tan which looked so natural and turned out great! Thank you Krista for making me feel so confident and beautiful on my special day!

g my trial and she made me feel like I was with someone I had known forever. I knew that Krista’s work was amazing & beautiful but what I didn’t know was how beautiful she would make me feel. I wear makeup everyday, but I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. A wedding is very stressful but thanks to Krista the minute I sat in her chair, my stress went away.

d my wedding day look to be and even was flexible with changing the look after our wedding was moved three times due to Covid. Krista’s work is stunning! Her makeup skills have a wide range and can complete the desired look you’re going for on your big day. I know this because I went from classic bridal look for my first trial and then glam for my wedding day! Both were gorgeous! The best part was she was really supportive regarding all the changes made during Covid. I was so comfortable working with her because she cares very much about her clients and making sure they look and feel beautiful! Now let’s talk spray tan! Krista did an amazing job on me! I looked very healthy and glowed on my wedding day! No streaks, no orange and no weird color differences on my body. Perfectly even! I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist!!! ❤️❤️

ilar options in the area. She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed while doing my makeup at my hotel for my elopement. The final look was stunning and stayed on with no problem for the rest of the afternoon and evening. I was so sad to wash off my makeup at the end of the night! I would definitely try to book Bella Glow for makeup for any future events I have in Sonoma.

t which made all the difference. Make up lasted all day long for my wedding. It was perfect! She even made sure to get my mom and flower girl all done up during my first look which helped keep to our timeline.

rm personality. My makeup trial with her was flawless and I knew she needed to do my wedding makeup. In March, when the pandemic hit, we were forced to reschedule our May wedding, and then reschedule AGAIN, and then ultimately cancelling our big wedding in Sonoma County and opting for an elopement at home. I was distraught about not getting to wear my dress, so I coordinated a wedding portrait session and when I reached out to Krista, she was more than willing to be part of it. KRISTA. SLAYED. My makeup looked flawless, stayed flawless and she brought the mother effing GLAM. I will look back on our photos and truly feel like the beautiful bride I have wanted to be all of 2020. Thank you thank you THANK YOU Krista, from the bottom of my heart. If you are getting married in Sonoma County, Napa, anywhere in NorCal, Krista is the best there is.

l or supported by an awesome girl gang, then I did on my wedding day. Thank you Krista! She listened during my makeup trial, was super accommodating on the big day and she nailed the looks of not only me, but of my 11 other ladies (bridesmaids, moms, g-mas and flower girls.) I felt like Krista went above and beyond to make sure I was supported and that everything ran smoothly on the big day. There was one point when there were a million people talking to me when I was getting my makeup done and she was able to shoo them all away, so I could have a moment of peace. I don’t think she knows how much that moment meant to me, but it was everything. If you’re getting married in the Marin / Sonoma / Napa area – def hire Bella Glow Studio for your makeup needs. Oh and her spray tanning abilities are unrivaled. If you do hire Krista for your big day, please make sure you also book her for your spray tan. I was the perfect mix of tan and glow-y without being oompa Loompa orange. Love Bella Glow Studios!

will be allowed to have our wedding due to the Canadian border being closed. I asked her for my deposit back that I left to hold the date and to pay for 11 bridesmaids make-up. She told me she cannot give me my money back because she has a no cancel policy even though she cannot perform the services and, in fact, did cancel. She is the only vendor out of ALL of our vendors to not return deposits during this time. This experience left a sour taste in my mouth. When we have the opportunity to finally have our wedding I would not want to work with someone so greedy. I own a small business and like all businesses during the pandemic we have suffered.  Even her business partner Kendra who does hair returned our deposit without question. Sometimes being a good person and being great to work with is more important than the service itself on your big  day. I just wanted to leave this as a warning for all brides considering working with her at this time. She cancelled no more, no less than me.

g from afar and Krista was there every step of the way guiding me through and making sure I would look my absolute perfect. And I did! She dedicated Thursday night (staying late) to do my spray tan once we arrived in Sonoma and devoted Friday and Saturday for makeup for both the rehearsal and wedding. Everyone raved about my makeup both events. On top of that, Krista was able to save the day when my hair stylist cancelled on me Friday before the wedding and left me hanging. Krista immediately jumped in to the rescue and called everyone she knew to help in the emergency. Turns out, the hair stylist who she found was also aGEM and together they made my day PERFECT!!! Thank you Krista for your professionalism, your talent and your dedication to your clients. You are the best!

sion and my makeup was exactly what I was looking for. Somehow it was even better on the day of my wedding! On my wedding day, she managed to do makeup for nine of us (me, six bridesmaids and two moms), and was even ahead of schedule! Most of the girls said their makeup was the best they'd ever had professionally done! For a small fee, Krista even stuck around to help touch up my makeup after first looks with my dad and groom. Krista's sweet and professional demeanor was exactly what I was looking for and helped keep the day incredibly low-stress and fun. 5+ stars!

agement party and received so many compliments. I highly recommend Krista for a stress free day and beautiful makeup!

hout my entire honeymoon without fading. Krista was fantastic to work with, and went above and beyond to help me achieve the look I was going for. She truly made my vision come to life. I can't recommend her enough to any bride out there looking for a makeup artist. You will not be disappointed!

of the groom, and great aunt all in a timely manner and there was no rush at all! She made everything so easy and enjoyable for the day of the wedding!

sive and incredibly sweet! I felt the pressure of the day melt away with how calm she is- I felt most relaxed when I was getting my makeup done! Absolutely one of the best decisions I made for my wedding was choosing Bella Glow Beauty Studio for my wedding makeup- she made sure my look was exactly what I wanted!

On my wedding day she made me feel special and beautiful! My makeup was a huge deal to me and I wanted it to be perfect- Krista went above and beyond to make sure it was perfect!!
