akeup, which was great because I did not have a wedding coordinator or day of coordinator. She got started pretty early in the morning, 8 am I believe! And was there until 1 pm, getting 3 bridesmaid hairs, 2 bridesmaids makeups, and a bridal hair and makeup done beautifully!! I would totalllllly recommend her. Special thanks to @sydneyevansphotography for my beautiful photos ❤️

Gabrielle and her team were kind, encouraging, and everything I could ask for our hair and makeup artist(s). The quality of service was amazing and I can tell she loves what she does! Very glad I used her for my wedding day.

eeded my expectations. I was GLOWING and my hair held up against the June heat in MO with no problem. She was actively engaged in all the conversations in the bridal suite, and it made the experience so much better. I truly can't say enough about her and her work. AND she travelled an hour to my wedding location, which not many artists were willing to do.

he helped explain things in an easy to understand way. She also worked with me and asked questions to figure out what I would like best. We did a hair/makeup trial before the wedding which helped me feel prepared. Trial day was gross, rainy, humid weather and wedding day was like 103-105 degrees. Hair/makeup held up extremely well both days (wedding indoors but spent several hours outside both days). She also had an assistant for the day-of who was skilled and friendly as well. I also needed hair done for 7 other women early in the morning day-of and Gabrielle was honest and upfront about the time frame I needed being tight for the number of people, and we worked out a solid game plan for handling that. Gabrielle and the other stylist ended up being able to do everyone's hair in the timeframe and everyone looked beautiful! Would have been understanding if we had run out of time as anticipated due to the tight schedule but was so glad they were able to help everyone. I highly recommend Gabrielle, she was a joy to work with and obviously passionate and skilled in what she does. :)
