I felt so beautiful on my wedding day and that’s 100% has to do with Linda and her team! She was so incredible to work with. She listened to exactly what I wanted, and what all my girls wanted. We had a lot of people and her and co-stylist Kayla finished everyone on time and everyone loved their makeup! Highly recommend!!!

I could not have asked for a better experience for the day of my wedding! Linda and her team at Bridal Biz Beauty were beyond amazing and made everyone in my wedding party feel so beautiful. They kept us on time and relaxed the whole morning. Everything was well organized from scheduling trials and planning timelines ahead of time to making it all come together the day of. I am so happy and grateful for the service we received.

Bridal Biz Beauty's team was a dream to work with!
Sonja and Alia were both incredibly talented at hair and makeup and made sure that me and my girls looked our very best. I was very impressed with their level of professionalism (we had a very early start) and willingness to accommodate to our needs.
These ladies did such an amazing job that one of the groomsmen felt the need to comment how impressed they were with my hair and makeup holding up all day.
Aside from their gorgeous work, the Bridal Biz Beauty team was extremely professional, organized, and quick to reply which made it very easy to work with.

Bridal Biz Beauty was absolutely the right choice for my big day! The convenience of two vendors in one and them coming to us made our day seamless and stress free!
Sonja went above and beyond with this pearly pony tail I asked for. Her attention to detail and talent really shone in this amazing hairdo and it made me feel like a princess!!!
Linda really channeled my vision for the “elevated me” look I was going for. She made me look and feel so beautiful and ready to take on the day!! Not only did both of them make me feel beautiful, both of my hair and makeup lasted well into the night!!

Linda was an amazing makeup artist! She was wonderful to work with. At the makeup trial she made sure I felt and looked beautiful and took everything I said into consideration. For the day of the wedding she made all my bridesmaids look stunning and was able to do exactly what they wanted. For me, she once again made me feel so beautiful. I also felt very comfortable getting ready with her. She is so sweet and kind I would recommend her to anyone and if I need my makeup done again I would definitely ask her to do it!

Julie at Bridal Biz Beauty is an incredible make-up artist. And she is truly that - an artist. The way she matched me (the bride) and my bridal's parties unique skin tones blew me away! My make-up was light and not heavy, with the perfect lip and eye accents. Linda was a pleasure to work with, and my photos look perfect because of her! Her hair stylist, Julie, was also a delight to work with and truly made each of my ladies look and feel so special on my wedding day. They perfect make-up and hair team!

Linda, Sonja, and Sarah are the best!!! They made our wedding morning run so smoothly. They are extremely organized and made all 11 of us look gorgeous! I would highly recommend them especially if you have a large bridal party and want to also include the moms! They were especially great at making sure I looked exactly how I wanted, even when I changed it up a bit from my hair and makeup trial! Cannot recommend Bridal Biz Beauty Enough! Thank you!!!

I can speak to the hair stylist Sonja who was great! She was very receptive and was easy to communicate with. The initial plan was to have hair and makeup through them, but some life plans changed for them earlier on after booking and wouldnt allow them to do makeup, but Linda connected me to a great makeup artist who did an amazing job.

Linda and her team were amazing to work with. Between me adding people on for hair and makeup, working around my availability for hair/makeup trials and being the sweetest during my wedding day. 11 girls had their hair/makeup done and they were somehow so precise and careful yet so quick too, it was great. Everyone came up to me to remark how sweet each person was. They helped me and my girls look amazing on my big day and I would highly recommend to anyone who’s considering booking BBB

I can't begin to describe how perfect these ladies made me feel on my wedding day. I am not one to normally wear a lot of makeup and they were able to go above and beyond without it feeling like I had too much on. My hair and makeup were perfect all night. The bridal party also looked amazing and everyone loved working with the Bridal Biz Beauty team. We would highly recommend!!

Linda and Julie are a perfect team! They are organized and professional and made the wedding day prep stress-free! During the hair and makeup trials both Linda and Julie were very receptive to my ideas and concerns and offered great advice to make everything perfect and set my mind at ease. On the day of the wedding, hair and makeup for the entire bridal party (9 total!!) went seamlessly, leaving plenty of time for pre-ceremony pictures. I was so happy that all of my friends and family could be relaxed and enjoy the morning. Thank you so much for making that time so special for all of us!

Linda, Julie, Christiana and Santa were absolutely amazing!! My makeup on my wedding day was absolutely flawless all day and night especially in the heat when I was sweating. I also do not have the best skin and Linda assured me I would feel beautiful and not cakey and that's exactly what happened. My skin looked naturally flawless! Julie did my hair and it was incredible. Not only did I change my mind a few times- she was so sweet throughout this whole process. My hair held up all night and stayed in place like new.
Not only were all the girls amazing for hair and makeup- I had THIRTEEN women to get ready that day- between bridesmaids and parents and grandparents- and we were all flawlessly done and EARLY.
It was so nice to communicate with Linda whenever I needed and she made me feel so comfortable and calm until the big day. It made my life so much easier that the whole team came ready with a schedule to zoom through me and all the girls. It was so much easier having a team for hair and makeup rather than selecting two different vendors.
My venue was about an hour or so from their location and the travel fee was so reasonable as well as the prices for hair and makeup themselves. All I know is I am so happy I found Bridal Biz Beauty for my wedding because I have never felt more beautiful and more like me ever!

Linda was amazing from start to finish! She made me feel totally comfortable during the trail run and was open to ideas. On the wedding day she was just perfect. Everyone’s hair was beautiful and she was so patient! My hair stayed together the entire day and I absolutely loved it. I received so many complaints on it all day.

I had such a great experience working with Julie from Bridal Biz Beauty from my wedding this past weekend! From the trial to the day of she did a fabulous job. My hair was perfect and exactly what I pictured on my wedding day and my bridesmaids were so happy with their hair as well. She was very responsive to email/text and flexible during the planning process as well. Thank you so much Julie!!!

Linda, Sonja, and Joanna are fantastic. Linda did exactly what I wanted for my make up and made all my girls look gorgeous. Sonja is a total whiz with hair and got it all done. I’m a very type A person and I knew Linda was the right person for me when she made a day of schedule for all 8 of the girls. On the day of they arrived right on time to get the day started and didn’t complain when a few of my girls showed up a few minutes late. Even with that, they still got everyone done earlier than schedule. They also made me feel so at ease and dealt with all the sometimes crazy requests my girls had. I wouldn’t want anyone besides Linda and her team to be a part of our big day.

THANK you so much to Bridal Biz Beauty for making me and my bridal party feel beautiful and confident on my wedding day. From our first quote to the big day, the whole team was so amazing throughout the entire process. Linda was very responsive in e-mails and setting up hair/make-up trials. Linda was extremely receptive to maintaining the bride's style and accentuating natural beauty. We had a big party and live 1 hour from Rochester but on the day of the wedding the team was there right on time and had our dining room set up before I even walked in the door! They were extremely efficient and ahead on schedule, something that I had been stressing over (for no reason apparently!) I got so many compliments on my makeup and my bridesmaids all looked stunning with their hair and makeup. I would highly recommend these ladies to any bride!

This review is for Linda, who did makeup, and Julie, who did hair. The beauty vendor was one of the vendors I cared most about for the wedding, after all it is so important to feel great about how you look on your wedding day! I am so happy I found Bridal Biz Beauty, I couldn't have imagined a better beauty vendor!
Linda and Julie were both phenomenal. We had 6 bridesmaids, the bride, and the groom's mother getting hair and makeup done and each and every person looked PHENOMENAL. Linda and Julie are both so incredibly talented, I really cannot stress enough how beautiful everyone looked under their care. They were great at listening to what each person wanted for hair and makeup and doing something beautiful reflecting their requests! Not only that, but they are also so fun to work with! :)
If you come across Bridal Biz Beauty, no reason to look any further for a beauty vendor. These ladies are so so so talented and professional - you will not be disappointed. I cannot stop looking at wedding photos and smiling because of how amazing everyone looked. I am so thankful I had them on my wedding day. Huge thank you to Linda and Julie for making everyone look and feel incredible!

Bridal biz did a great job making the girls look amazing the day of our wedding! The stylists had to get up super early since our wedding was in Ithaca and we had 9 girls getting hair and makeup done. All of them showed up with a positive attitude and were an awesome influence as we were getting ready! I can’t say enough about Julie, the hair stylist- she did exactly what I had envisioned. It only took one or two inspiration photos to show her what I wanted and she executed flawlessly. Planning with Bridal Biz was mostly great! Linda was very easy to communicate with and she helped organize the day of schedule. The only thing I would have changed was the payment: paying for makeup two weeks out via one payment method and paying for hair the day of via another method was a little inconvenient. Overall, I am so happy with how everyone in the party looked on the wedding day!! As the bride, I was so happy to have chosen the perfect hair and makeup vendor!

I had the best experience working with Bridal Biz Beauty! Linda is incredible and so attentive. She responded to every email I had right away, sometimes even early in the morning or late on a Saturday night. Linda and Sonja were so great during my hair and make up trials and followed up after to make sure I was happy with how everything looked. They showed up early on the day of my wedding and made the getting ready process such a breeze. They were so fun to have around and it kept me so relaxed. All of the girls looked amazing and our hair and make up stayed perfect the entire day and night. Her prices are so reasonable for the incredible work that they do. I would highly recommend Bridal Biz Beauty to anyone looking for wedding day and hair and makeup! Thank you Linda and Sonja for everything!!

When I was looking for hair and make up for my wedding I wanted a salon/business that would come to me and do the girls hair and makeup. I am so pleased to have found Bridal Biz! From the beginning Linda was quick to answer questions via email and I booked them about a year out. 6 months later she reached out to me to book my hair and make up trial. I was so happy I didn't have to hound her down about it. In March, I had my hair and makeup trial after I sent photos showing what I want. I also brought the same pictures which I recommend in general. Linda and Julie did such a great job and I had such a good rapport with them! They made me laugh and relax which all brides know is great since the time before the wedding can be so stressful. Linda gave me some suggestions which I appreciated and took. On my wedding day, they brought an assistant since we were a large group (1 bride and 8 bridesmaids). Linda had made a timeline to get us all done before lunch and they succeeded! Not only were they timely all the girls hair and makeup was exactly what I expected! I couldn't have asked for anything better. The week of the wedding I booked a conference room in the hotel for us. We 100% needed it because we all would have been tight in the rooms we had stayed in. My one recommendation to Bridal Biz is to maybe suggest this to brides to help with space if the group is large. It also allowed some of the bridesmaids to sleep in since we weren't in the hotel rooms. Overall, I would recommend Bridal Biz to all my friends and family for any occasion!

Bridal Biz Beauty (Linda and Sonja) are AMAZING! They listen to your vision and truly make it come to life. I felt like a princess on my wedding day! They traveled to us super early (because I had 10 girls) on the wedding day and were incredibly efficient, they got everyone done with perfect timing and did touch ups before they left. All my girls looked stunning!! They are so fun to work with and made the wedding morning easy and enjoyable for everyone.

The entire Bridal Biz Beauty team is AMAZING! And, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND :)
They are professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and listen, to make sure you get exactly what you want and ensure you look flawless.
I booked Bridal Biz for my wedding. One of my biggest concerns with booking a hair stylist and makeup artist was timing. I had 10 women that needed hair and makeup that morning. We also needed to be done by early afternoon because we planned to do our photography (first look, bridal party, etc) before the ceremony. THEY WERE SO FAST and everyone looked beautiful!! Linda and her team were ahead of schedule almost all morning and there was plenty of time for any touch ups before they left.
My hair and makeup looked perfect all night, even after sweating and dancing all night. Seriously stop looking at other vendors and book them now!

Linda and her team did a great job! I appreciated how responsive and approachable they were—especially amidst the craziness of trying to communicate with so many vendors during wedding planning. They were truly concerned with making sure that I felt beautiful and confident on my wedding day, and they did a fantastic job of giving me and my bridesmaids a classy and natural look.

I cannot speak highly enough of Bridal Biz Beauty! Linda was our makeup artist & Sonja was our hair stylist--both were absolutely pleasures to work with and made our day so special. Despite being a long distance bride (living across the country!), communication was clear, timely, and effortless. They even worked around their schedules to squeeze me in for a hair & makeup trial on pretty short notice when I found out that I could be in NY then. Day of...Sonja was an angel & the most talented with updos. I was blown away by her kindness and ability to work with ALL hair styles and types. My hair NEVER stays in, NEVER holds a curl yet she performed a miracle and made it PERFECT! The curls held & the updo never budged after over 13 hours of movement and dancing. My mom, who is super picky about hair, LOVED Sonja and to this day cannot stop raving about her. Sonja listened to each girl and made everyone feel welcomed and at home--including our 6 year old flower girl. Sonja made all 3 bridesmaids, 1 flower girl, one bride, and 1 mom SO happy--everyone loved her and I know if they get married in Ithaca, they would use her in a heartbeat. She took my vision for everyone and brought it to life, spending quality time with each girl to ensure a perfect updo. As for makeup, Linda was fantastic! She handled one girl not wanting a ton of makeup and the rest of us wanting glam--somehow she made it work and look amazing together! Linda really listened to me and embraced my love of glitter---bringing extra glitter and pink for the wedding day. She even went out of her way and checked into latex free glue for false eyelashes for my mom with a latex allergy! Linda did such a wonderful job on my makeup--I am blown away by the photos and how it stayed on ALL DAY despite many happy tears and dancing. Thank you, Linda & Sonja, you two are the very best!! <3

This review is much overdue for Linda, who did makeup, and Sonja, who did hair for my wedding on Friday, 9/28/18 at Crispin Hill. These women are incredibly talented, creative, quick with their hands, efficient, patient, truly listen to any and all of your concerns (even when your questions or concerns are borderline crazy), and made the getting ready process of my wedding day so relaxed and so much fun.
From the beginning of working with Linda, she was highly responsive, attentive to my many questions and concerns, organized, and even willing to meet in person for coffee to discuss things early on in the planning process, which was important to me. She genuinely cares about her work and is passionate about making you feel and look your best. She is funny, down to earth, and made me, my bridesmaids, and the moms feel so comfortable on my wedding day. I have never worn much makeup, and am certainly not the most informed on makeup. Despite this, Linda never made me feel like I was uninformed, but rather went out of her way to explain things (probably more than she usually does). She was able to provide excellent skin care/product recommendations leading up to the wedding, and I could not have been happier having her do makeup for my wedding!
Sonja is one of the most caring, compassionate, and sweetest people I have ever met. She works at the salon where I get my nails regularly done and I had always admired her work from afar. When I realized she also works with Bridal Biz Beauty and was available to do hair for my wedding, I could not have been more excited. Sonja is very talented and makes her tedious and potentially stressful work, look so easy and effortless. During my hair trial, she worked with me to ensure that the look I had imagined was just what I pictured, but in real life. She did the hair for all four of my bridesmaids, my mom and mother-in-law, flower girl, and myself and finished ahead of schedule!
Linda and Sonja are true professionals yet more times than not, felt like friends throughout the whole wedding planning and day. I also could not have been more impressed with their upbeat, positive attitude and energy despite an insanely early start to their day to ensure they were at my venue by 7AM (they were even early for that!). I could not be more thankful for how beautiful they made me and everyone else feel and look on my wedding day! My wedding truly would not have been the same without them and their wonderful help!

Bridal Biz Beauty was everything I could have asked for! Julie and Christana were both absolutely amazing! Julie did the hair for me and my entire bridal party.. we started at 6am and our hair lasted perfectly until the end of the reception at 11pm! I was so in love with how she created a look for my hair even after some changes we'd discussed since the trial. She was so easy to work with and you could tell she genuinely loves what she does! Christana was equally as amazing and did such a great job with our makeup! She made each of us feel truly beautiful! Not once throughout the long day did I worry about my hair or makeup, no need to pinning something up or reapplying this or that! Thank you both for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day!

I would recommend Linda and her team to every bride on their wedding day! They worked their magic on hair and makeup for myself (makeup only), my 6 bridesmaids, my mother, and mother-in-law and each and every person was happy with their look, no emergency fixes necessary! When researching vendors, their quality of work exceeded others within the same price range. Their easy-going personalities added to a smooth day of wedding preparation. Best of all, they finished ahead of schedule, which ultimately allowed me to spend some quality time with my father before walking down the aisle.

I came across Bridal Biz Beauty while browsing through the Rochester Area Wedding facebook page, where Linda is highly recommended. I contacted Linda and within minutes I received her response. From our first meet during my hair trial, she was very professional and sweet. She carefully listened and let me try couple different looks before I found a look where I felt truly special. The day of the wedding I had a large group of 11 ladies getting ready (plus 2 really hyper ring-bearers) and everybody loved their hair. Even ring bearers got their hair styled. Linda and Sonja did a wonderful job.

I found Linda through searching for on-site hair and makeup. She was very responsive and available in setting up my consultation. She paid attention to what I wanted and was patient with me when I didn't know what I wanted. As someone who wears minimal makeup, I was very apprehensive but I felt like she highlighted my natural look and made me stand out in photos. The day of she was prompt, attentive, and relaxed - just what I wanted. I was very pleased with both my hair and makeup and will seek Linda out for formal events in the future.

My makeup and hair lasted all day and night. I was so busy I didn’t have time for touch ups and I didn’t even need them. Linda was very easy to work with and addressed all my questions and concerns. Linda and Julie were so fun on my wedding day. I was very nervous and they helped calm my nerves by making me laugh and have fun! Linda and Julie are amazing and I highly recommend them!

Linda and her assistant Rema were wonderful on my wedding day! I first met Linda when I was a bridesmaid in a friends wedding, and Linda did our makeup. She was so fun, kept everyone calm, and her makeup was amazing. As someone who does not wear a lot of makeup, I loved that Linda was accommodating to whatever your makeup style may be. When I got engaged last year, Linda was one of the first people I contacted to do my makeup for the big day! She and her assistant did 9 girls in 4 hours, and everyone looked AMAZING! I would recommend Bridal Biz to anyone looking for an amazing makeup artist! Thanks, Linda!

Linda and team were great to work with. Linda was very accessible and always timely with any responses or answers to questions. The team worked efficiently so that the entire morning ran smoothly -- we even finished hair and makeup (for 11 people!) early! My hair and makeup turned out exactly how I wanted, and they both stayed in place from 11am to almost 2am. Highly recommend!

Linda came to my home the morning of my wedding to do my makeup, my 14 year old daughter’s makeup, and my best friend. She did a thorough practice run prior to that, making sure I loved what she was planning. Linda was so friendly, and easy to work with. She worked in conjunction with my hair stylist to make it an easy process. Most importantly, we all looked amazing, and we all received tons of compliments!! Would highly recommend Linda for your wedding day makeup!

I loved working with Linda (makeup) and her partner Sonja (hair) for my wedding. From first contact, Linda was always professional, prompt, kind, accommodating, and easy to get along with. We met out for coffee so I could get a feel for how she works, and I felt comfortable with her right from the start. Then I had my makeup trial and Linda listened closely to how I normally wear makeup (or rather, don't) and what I'm comfortable with, and she constantly asked for feedback throughout the trial. I loved how I looked that day, like me but better. Linda sent me off to Sonja for my hair trial, and again, instantly felt comfortable and like I could have known them forever. The day of our wedding, both Sonja and Linda were on time to our hotel. Both women were so great to have around that morning, kept me from getting crazy anxious. They are both easygoing, fun and engaging. This is all icing on the cake, because their work is the most important thing. My hair (and my girls') stayed in place and my curls held up for the entire day! And my makeup was amazing. It didn't feel heavy or cakey at all, I just felt like a fancy version of myself, and I usually wear BB creams if I need a little foundation. My now husband loved my look too. I felt like a princess, thanks to these lovely ladies!

Linda exceeded all of my hopes/expectations. I did a make-up trial a few months prior which proved to be a huge help because she learned more about my normal makeup style, and gave me recommendations for preparing leading up to the wedding (i.e. moisturizing, etc.). She was professional but friendly right from the start and made me and my sisters feel comfortable. I have raved about her and honestly the pictures of that day speak for themselves she made me look like the absolute best version of myself. I cannot thank her enough!

I might go overboard here but I can't say enough about Linda! She is amazing at what she does and is such a beautiful person on the inside and out. Before the big day she was in contact with me just to settle the schedule and her texts were so sweet. I knew we were off to a good start. My trial went perfect! For the wedding day I can't decide what I treasured more...how beautiful she made us look or how much of a calming presence she was on such a big day. I firmly believe you set your day with the people you surround yourself with in the morning and I'm so grateful Linda was there. Even when we had a little bit of a hiccup she was so calm and just worked with it!
I would recommend Linda 100X over again and again!

I hired Linda for my wedding day hair and makeup and everything in between from my engagement photos to my bridal shower. Linda and her team are more than amazing. I can not put into words how talented Linda is. I would show Linda a picture of a hair style or a makeup look and she was not only able to replicate the picture but was able to individualize the style to me. It was so great working with Linda and strongly recommend Linda and her team!
