Belle Of The Ball

Lily handled my hair and makeup for my wedding. She did a lovely job and my bridal look turned out better than I could have imagined! Her prices are fair for what was offered and she is very friendly/pleasant on top of it. Her communication was poor leading up to the event, however. She often had to be reminded multiple times over Facebook messenger to respond to my e-mails. I understand part of this is probably that she had many other events before mine during this time, but my very last e-mail wrapping up logistics took 3 weeks for her to respond to. This is even more disappointing because I see so many other reviews praising her for her communication and I wonder why my e-mails went unanswered for so long? The only time during my wedding day I felt the least bit pressed for time was toward the end of my getting ready period. I was told the timeline I proposed left us with more than enough extra time so there wouldn’t be a scramble toward the end. My make-up was done last and I was getting final touch ups done at the time I should have been getting into my dress. I was also given the wrong amount to write her a check for for the final payment so I was voiding checks when I really needed to be getting into my gown. While the compliments were endless on my hair and make-up and I felt absolutely beautiful for my wedding day, I can’t ignore the fact that finalizing my timeline was delayed because of the lack of communication and the end of my getting ready time was the most stressful part of the day because of timing/logistical issues mentioned above. I recommend Lily for her talent and sweet disposition, but urge clients to keep these communication issues in mind.

Lily!! You were one of my favorite vendors for the day. Our wedding on 4/21/18 was flawless, and Lily was such a big help! First off, Lily and her team are great when it comes to communication. I never went over 24 hours without hearing a response to an email, most of the time I heard back within a few hours, and texts were super fast. I used Lily for a trial, and she went through SEVERAL designs of my hair, until we found an exact look that I was in love with. Then, she did my makeup in layers, slowly adding more and more until I found my perfect look. I'm not the type of person that normally wears a lot of makeup, so I was super concerned about this part, but Lily was an expert and knew exactly what to do! When the day of the wedding arrived, Lily showed up early to set up, and let me tell you, what a professional set up it was! I had 6 girls getting hair and makeup done, including myself. It took less then 4 hours, and then Lily worked with my photographer getting detail shots done. Not only did she work with me every step of the way, but her assistant worked with my girls getting every last detail perfect for them. All of us looked stunning ( if I do say so myself ). Lily and her team were also super affordable, which was a HUGE plus. I honestly am so happy with how everything came out, and would advise any bride I meet to look up Belle of the Ball! 10 stars if I could! Thank you Lily and team!

BEAUTIFUL!!! Lily and her team did an amazing job! I hired Lily to do my bridesmaids' makeup the morning of the wedding. She did a fabulous job! She was there the morning of with time to set up. She worked with the hair dresser to create a schedule so everything would move efficiently. She really knows how to bring out the natural beauty in each person. She was such a pleasure to work with! i will for sure use her again or recommend her to a friend.

Fabulous! Can't say enough great things about Lily & the work she does. My daughter-in-law used her on several occasions including her wedding. The bride & all her bridesmaids looked gorgeous! I recommend her highly!
