Bright Crystal Wedding LA/OC

my go to for any event or photoshoot. I wish I knew about her when I was getting married. 

e, and incredibly patient. Most importantly, she truly listened to what I wanted and made sure I felt heard every step of the way. I absolutely loved how my makeup turned out. It was natural, elegant, and still felt completely like me, and it is exactly what I had hoped for on such an important day. The makeup held up beautifully throughout the day, and I especially appreciated the little touch-up bag she provided. That thoughtful and sweet gesture made such a difference and showed how much she genuinely cares about her brides. I’m so grateful to Rena and her team for helping me feel confident, beautiful, and calm on my wedding day. I highly recommend Bright Crystal Wedding to any bride looking for a makeup artist who is talented, attentive, and truly invested in her clients.

lad I chose them and would happily recommend their services.

t I wanted. Their calm and professional approach helped me relax and enjoy the day. I’m very thankful for such a positive experience.

tention to detail, skill, and professionalism made the entire day feel calm, special, and stress free. I’m so grateful for such a lovely experience and would happily recommend their services to anyone!

and felt so comfortable. The team was professional, calm, and truly listened to what each person wanted. Highly recommend!

photos of the hair and makeup look I wanted, and she absolutely nailed it; exactly how I envisioned it. I’m usually pretty cautious with makeup because I really prefer a natural look, but Rena delivered the perfect balance. I still felt like myself, just more polished and glowing, which was especially important since this was for my civil ceremony. She was also very efficient and everything ran smoothly and on time. I’m so grateful I chose Rena for such a special day and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, natural glam.

d on the hair of all my bridesmaids. Booking was so easy, and we were able to do multiple trials for myself and my mother so that we really locked down what we wanted. Everyone is so kind and easy to work with, and produced beautiful, skillful work!

d a lot of anxiety on wedding day, but Rena made me look and feel beautiful, and her team was awesome with my bridal party.

f professionalism and a genuine passion for her craft. During the trial, she took the time to listen to my ideas and offered valuable suggestions, ensuring that the final look would complement my dress and overall theme perfectly. Her attention to detail was evident throughout the process, and I felt completely at ease knowing I was in capable hands. On the wedding day, Rena exceeded my expectations. She executed the chosen style flawlessly, and it held up beautifully throughout the day. Even with the inevitable nerves, I felt like a true princess, all thanks to her skill and expertise. Not only is Rena incredibly talented, but she also has a warm and calming presence that helped alleviate any pre-wedding jitters. She was punctual, organized, and a joy to have around. I cannot recommend Rena enough. She played a pivotal role in making my wedding day a dream come true, and I am forever grateful. If you're in search of a hairstylist who goes above and beyond, look no further. Thank you, Rena, for making me feel like the most beautiful bride on my special day!!!

who arrived later than scheduled and how skilled she is at making me look my best throughout the long wedding day!

p until you feel perfect! I especially appreciated the care they took with my mom who was hesitant about the whole process. Cannot recommend them enough!

e listened to what I wanted and recreated it perfectly. I wore it around all day and it looked great even through very windy conditions. Her personality is so kind and stress relieving as well.

eased with my engagement photos (which I scheduled right after my makeup trial) and knew that I was in great hands for my wedding day. Rena is extremely responsive and accommodating as I worked out the details leading up to my wedding day. I stopped by her studio in Torrance a few weeks before my wedding to purchase a beautiful floral hair clip (which was the ONLY one that perfectly matched my vision after searching for several countless nights). During that visit, she also worked with me on color matching hair extensions to my hair color to better prepare for the big day. On my wedding day, Rena and her team were top-notch! They were punctual and fully prepared, even with our hotel's crazy parking restrictions. Three of my bridesmaids got their makeup done and all 6 BM + MOH got their hair done, and Rena & her team got everyone looking amazing with time to spare! Talk about a stress-free way to start off your wedding day, right? My friends have had prior experiences as BMs in other weddings and they were extremely impressed with Rena and her team's ability to work so efficiently yet do such a beautiful job on everyone's hair & makeup. Overall, Rena did a wonderful job of ensuring that she fulfilled all my hair & makeup needs for my wedding, and I would recommend her and her team to anyone with no hesitation! Not only will you look and feel beautiful as the bride, your bridal party will too!

absolutely perfect and everything that I could have dreamed for. Thank you!

y wedding, and it came out great, but the day of experience and hair/makeup was even better! She was very responsive, accommodating, punctual, and talented! With all of that and the very reasonable prices, I would highly recommend them!!

w the make-up, she wanted it done as well. The team was gracious enough to work her in and the work was so much appreciated. My MOH actually introduced Rena to me and I would definitely recommend her to any bridal team. No complaints from the bridesmaids. Rena was also very accommodating to last minute requests including my cousin's tattoo cover up. Everyone was happy!

probably won't cover all of the reasons that I highly recommend their services. The entire team is responsive and professional from the very first introductory call to the very last touch-up. Lily and Yuko were working with a diverse group of women and everyone looked flawless. The bride especially looked stunning and Lily did a fantastic job of working with her all day especially during touch-ups. We never had to ask for anything to be done, Lily would just step in wherever she saw something that needed to be adjusted or touched-up and would take care of it. Her attention to detail really showed in the photos and the bride's styling looked as good at the end of the day as it did in the beginning! I would happily work with Bright Crystal for any future styling needs.

wedding, Savannah made me look and feel like a princess for both of my looks. (We had an Indian fusion wedding). She was constantly checking in to make sure I felt good and asked if I wanted to make any changes, which I appreciated. My bridesmaids and family also loved their hair and makeup! Cannot recommend Rena and her team enough.

about wedding makeup since I tend to look older with lots of makeup due to my skin texture and face features. I did a trial with Rena before my wedding. She was easy to talk to and reliable to ask for opiniones which helped me a lot since I had no idea what to do. During the trial, she counseled me and only I requested was natural makeup. She first put pink gold based eye shadow since my wedding dress was Champaign pink. I asked her if there is any other color option. Rena was very flexible to let me try orange based eye makeup since my wedding bouquet was sunflower. On the day of the wedding, I decided to do orange based eye makeup and I loved it! As I requested, it was very natural yet it embraced the beauty of what I have. I was also surprised how foundation can look so light but covers skin very well. Hair was perfect as well and it lasted for all day long without fixing! (From 12pm to 12am). My mom also loved her makeup and hairstyle for her Kimono. I highly recommend Rena for any special events!

wedding venues which resulted in changing of times which required the artists to meet with us earlier. Rena was able to work with our schedule without any issues or headache. Her team was punctual and did such a great job on all my family members!

vannah was my stylist and she really put me at ease on my big day.

was very happy with her work (bridal hair and makeup). She was happy to go with what I suggested and worked with me on my desired style and vision for my look. Rena, the owner, was also very nice during a consultation and was punctual/responsive in getting back to me. All in all, great company, reasonable price, would recommend :)

ularly, and went for a half up hairstyle. I did a trial first a few weeks prior, and it came out great - I was beyond happy with it! But on the actual wedding day, it turned out even better than the trial! My hair is thin, extremely straight, and doesn’t hold a curl well, but she made my hair look voluminous, and the curls lasted much longer than I expected. Yuko showed up early, and was very accommodating to staying a little bit to ensure our photographer captured her doing my makeup at the end. I cannot praise and thank Yuko enough for how wonderful she is!

she was very pleasant easy to talk to. These reviews were 110% correct and I'm so glad all my research led me to her. Her prices are fair, the makeup and hair she does is exactly what you ask for, her and her team arrived on time (early actually to get set up), and were insanely nice and understanding of all my girls needs and concerns. They got everything done in such a timely fashion without rushing. The makeup Rena did for me was natural-looking, but full coverage (exactly what I requested) and I never looked or felt prettier in my entire life, but I still looked 100% like ME. That's how everyone should feel on their wedding day. A huge reason I chose her besides her great hair/makeup reviews was things people said about her personality. I knew on my big day I would be nervous so I didn't want anyone with a personality too crazy/talkative to make me anxious or feel like I had to converse for the full 1-2hrs of getting my hair/makeup done. I needed that time to breathe and relax. I also didn't want a personality too quiet to make me feel shy/nervous. Rena is like your long lost friend. Easy to talk to, easy to connect with. If you don't want to talk, she doesn't bug you. If you want to chat for the full 2 hours, she'll chat with you. That was exactly what I needed to feel comfortable and relaxed just before walking down the aisle. I 100% recommend Rena and her team and will hire her again for any makeup/hair I need done. 6 stars

edule so they even touched everyone up again before they left. From my mom to my bridesmaids to myself, everyone was happy with their look. Highly recommend this team for your wedding day makeup.

-do. So Yuko tried both hairstyles on me and we both agreed that an up-do would be better. All the girls would double check with us if we wanted more color or if anything needs to be changed before finalizing the look for me, my bridesmaids, mom, and MIL. The girls were punctual, accommodating, and gave great recommendations. I love my hair and makeup overall.

makeup the day of the wedding and executing it all flawlessly! Would highly recommend her and her team for your wedding day!

easy to work with. She did an amazing job on all of our hair- in particular spending a lot of time on two of my bridesmaids who has difficult hair. Everyone's hair looked great and stayed until the end of the evening. Would highly recommend her for any event!

s jam to music while completing my hair/make-up, my 4 bridesmaids and my mom. They were timely and let us give examples of what we each wanted. They made us look like flawless dolls :) Thank you so much for your great communication and making my wedding day perfect.

e it was out of my budget, but my hair and make up came out perfect at the end. Everyone was happy with their final looks. They showed up on time, and we were all ready at the time we had planned. No crazy pressure or rushing. Everything was on point and I am so glad I decided to book them, everthing came out perfect. Thank you Lily and Yuko!

ed. On the day of the wedding she had an assistant help, who was just as talented. They both made our morning perfect!!!

felt so beautiful with their expert makeup skills. Thank you again!

s and I went to their studio for a trial. The day of, I was honored to work with Yuko and Maki. They both came on time with their own chairs, surge protectors, and tools. They had such happy and friendly personalities! They are so talented too; all my bridesmaids loved their hair. The two mothers are also very picky and they couldn't have been happier with their hair. Yuko did my hair and I was so surprised that NOTHING HURT! at the end of the day, i didn't have any aches or painful bobby pins!!! This is a great team

ho can. I LOVED LOVED LOVED my hair and makeup. [Concern #1] As someone who doesn't wear makeup, I was worried about how heavy the makeup would be. You're in good hands with Rena - she has a gift of achieving natural looks that are durable and strong enough for photo/video lighting. My family and bridesmaids had the same concern as well, and were all happy with how their makeup turned out. [Concern #2] I'm Chinese, so I wanted someone who knows how to work with Asian features (e.g. not pile eye shadow on top of my eyelids). Rena nailed it. [Trial] Do a lot of research on what you want before the hair and makeup trial so you can use the time to refine the look. If something doesn't look/feel right, tell Rena. She's incredibly patient and will work with you until you're happy. [Day of] Rena and her team showed up right on time and even finished ahead of schedule, which helped us stay on track overall. They were super easy to work with! [Recommendation] I would highly recommend Bright Crystal Wedding for both hair and makeup. If you can, try to book Rena. She's incredibly talented!!!

d that they traveled to my home so that I could comfortably get ready on my big day. Overall, I was very happy with my hair and makeup.

up to the last few weeks when we had to keep making changes to the wedding timeline. I also loved that Rena has a calm and competent presence. She can do it all without being overly chatty and distracting, which was helpful for me amidst the chaos of a wedding. I have recommended her to all my friends getting married and looking for an awesome makeup/hair stylist, and they agree that she is the best!

ces are really reasonable for the quality of the work and she is really easy to work with--on time and responsive. It was disgustingly hot on the day of my wedding--over 100 degrees and humid--and my makeup and hair still looked great at the end of the evening (even though I had been sweating all day)!

o replicate the hairstyle photos I showed her, and made my hair look even prettier than the photos I showed her :D Her makeup skills don't make you look like a different person with heavy caked on makeup. You still look like yourself, but a more elegant version. My engagement photo shoot was by the water and it was so windy outside. My hair held up so well in the strong wind. Somehow Rena was able to keep the hairstyle looking soft and natural, but tough against the wind! On my wedding day, Rena and her stylist arrived at our venue on time, quickly setup, and got to work! The thermostat was broken in the room where we got ready, so it was freezing cold inside. Rena plugged in a few hair dryers and placed them on the ground to help warm up our feet, and gave me some hot hair rollers to hold to keep my hands warm. Our wedding ceremony was outside on a hot August afternoon but despite the heat and perspiration, my airbrush makeup held up so well! I didn't need to touchup anything all day. She provided me with a little kit with hairspray, extra lip color, and oil blotting paper before she left. Prices are very fair. Rena was excellent with communication/texting/emails, always super friendly and responds quickly. She even sent me a message the night before the wedding to "sleep well tonight!". Thank you so much, Rena!

anks Rena for being there for me on my big day!!

t weight that I forgot I was wearing any, and it stayed on the whole night after all the dancing and festivities. Rena is so awesome that she actually gives you a little touch up kit with the lip color, too! She and her assistant arrived on time and made my bridal party look and feel like the gorgeous people they are.

anted to be prettier. She did exactly what I wanted. Hair and makeup stayed all day! Thank you!!!

been happier with the result.My makeup stayed on all day and all night.She was on time,even ahead of schedule ,very friendly and easy going person.I highly recommend her to anyone for weddings or any special occasions.
