Cheekadee Makeup Artists

d on my wedding day.

ir looks as well!

s for my wedding day makeup and discussed my likes/dislikes, and overall vision. Nina offered her expert suggestions and took notes and pictures of my trial makeup up so when the wedding day came, Nina jumped right into action, delivering on exactly what I wanted to look like as a bride on my most important day of my life, my wedding day! I appreciated her calm demeanor, her flexibility, her funny sense of humor and overall confidence in her craft, delivering top notch artistry to me, my mom and MIL and my girls! Highly recommend Nina and Cheekadee!!

! I received so many compliments on my makeup and one friend even suggested I should have Aja do my makeup whenever I go out :) I appreciated how Aja listened to what each person wanted and really delivered on their vision. As a group that does not wear a lot of makeup, she managed to make each person feel comfortable throughout the whole process and enhanced each person's natural beauty! Meghan was a true pro with hair styling! My hair was exactly what I wanted and stayed in place all night (even through a night of dancing followed by an after party!). They were both a part of what made our wedding reception incredible!

ar much makeup that often and that I wanted to feel glamorous and special but still look natural and like myself and she absolutely nailed it! My bridesmaids all loved her as well!!! Could not recommend her highly enough! The only reason I didn't choose 5 stars is because communication with the company wasn't perfect. The owner is the one that communicates with you throughout the process and sometimes was not prompt with returning emails and there was some confusion about payment. It all worked out in the end and she got back to us relatively quickly but I would have felt more comfortable if the communication had been a tiny bit better. Aja was great with communication though and even answered my texts days before the wedding when I was trying to get the correct lipstick! Aja was also very chill and super kind and fun on wedding day. Definitely added to the experience of my day and getting ready. Could not say enough good things about Aja!

t, Jenny. Jenny listened to what I was looking for during the pre-trial. I ended-up finding what I didn't want from my make-up, and on my weddning day, I had the perfect idea for what I wanted, which Jenny delivered.

y loved their looks. I would 100% work with them again, and recommend to others.

nd more. She made me feel done up and beautiful but I still looked exactly like myself. My makeup was perfect! My mom and I both did a trial before the wedding and Nina made it such an enjoyable experience - she is so kind and talented! I wish she could do my makeup everyday! Jo was also very easy to communicate with to set everything up behind the scenes. I highly recommend Cheekadee Makeup Artists!

a to anyone and will definitely use her in the future for any make up services!

ional, great at what they do, and the sweetest addition to your bridal suite.

g gorgeous well before we needed to walk down the aisle. Nina is so professional, kind, and amazing to work with. Anything you ask her to do, she can do. Any last minute changes? No problem. Suddenly feel like getting airbrushed? Let's do it! She was there with an answer to everything. My only hesitation in hiring was the lack of representation for darker skin tones on her website, but I shouldn't have been worried at all! One of my bridesmaids is South Sudanese and Nina's team mixed the foundation to match her deep tones PERFECTLY! I could not recommend her and her staff more and if you are worried about their ability to cater to you - do NOT! I promise you cannot go wrong with her team, no matter what your shade is!

put for the entire day, which was a true feat since it was a record setting heat the day of my wedding! I would gladly recommend Cheekadee to any of my friends.

blast, in part because Meghan and Kelly helped add to that fun atmosphere full of joking and laughing! What's more, they arrived on time and were efficient so that we remained on schedule. Our hair and make-up all looked great, even throughout a day of outdoor pictures and a night of dancing. On a day when you want to look and feel your most beautiful, they definitely make that happen.

d a top notch team with Karen, Kim, and Aja and every single one of them was fantastic! All my ladies looks so natural and beautiful! Would definitely recommend cheekadee!

ut the day of…*chefs kiss*…absolutely amazing.

and hair stayed in place all day during a sweaty July evening. The entire bridal party looked and felt beautiful. Plus, they were efficient and everyone was ready on time! Highly recommend hiring Cheekadee. Thank you!!

t the right amount to look good in pictures but still look like myself. She did a great job and everyone loved their makeup! Aja is sweet and easy to talk to, making her fit in great while everyone was getting ready. My makeup lasted all night and through all the tears. Highly recommend

were wonderful to work with for trials and day of. Grace is a true artist and had all of us (ages 25 to 84) looking incredible and feeling confident - even those not used to full face make-up. She was able to fit in an extra person, and Meghan did hair for two extra people. These ladies were so professional and not even bothered by the extra last minute work. I even became Meghan's nightmare and changed my hair as she was finishing. She re-did it in a completely different style from our trial, and it looked gorgeous. She is fast, talented, and amazing. Use Cheekadee and you'll have one less thing to stress about on your wedding day.

e potential to be very stressful. Couldn’t have asked for anything better! Highly recommend!

e day of makeup, I have never felt more beautiful or flawless ever! All of my bridesmaids and mom’s makeup were amazing too! We were so impressed with how perfect and fresh we felt all day long and all got compliments on our makeup all day long!

of the bridal party and our family members absolutely loved their airbrush makeup and it lasted the entire day/night! I will definitely use Cheekadee again for future events.

re day and night! They were able to complete everything on schedule that morning and were an absolute pleasure to have with us! Highly recommend booking Cheekadee for your wedding makeup! You won't regret it!

sy to work with through all the date changes we had to make due to Covid!

ommending this business to everyone!

k so natural and flawless. Nina and Cheekadee are incredibly organized and prompt - would highly recommend!

up artists from her wedding: Nina and Cheekadee. Right from the very beginning Jo and Nina were extremely friendly and responsive to all my emails and text messages. My trial was a great experience, even with all the new restrictions in place. When we got closer to our wedding date it became apparent we weren’t going to be able to have our big wedding we has hoped and ended up changing to a more intimate gathering in our family’s backyard....Cheekadee accommodated location changes without a fuss. Nina and an assistant came to my sister-in-law’s home the morning of the wedding and got makeup done for 9 girls EARLIER than we anticipated. She even did last minute touch-ups to make sure everyone looked perfect right before the ceremony. I can’t say enough about how amazing Nina is!!!

tire bridal party. I was obsessed with my make-up after my trial with LeeAnn and didn't think it could possibly get any better but she truly outdid herself on the day of my wedding. I felt beautiful. I highly recommend booking LeeAnn as your make-up artist and visiting her for a few facials before the big day (she is a multi-talented aesthetician)! I also used Meghan from Cheekadee for hair and could not be happier. Meghan is not only an incredibly experienced and talented hairstylist, but she is also super friendly and made everyone feel comfortable. I could not believe the ease with which Meghan was able to create beautiful, intricate, and completely individualized hairstyles for all of my bridesmaids, my mom, and myself! I am seriously in awe of her skills. I am so grateful to Cheekadee for the services they provided on my wedding day and cannot recommend them enough!

odating for me adding people last minute.

process - her responses were prompt, thorough, and professional. My makeup trial with Nina was wonderful - and then she absolutely exceed any expectations I had on the day of the wedding. I watched Nina and Kim bring out all of the most beautiful features in my bridesmaids - they looked flawless. My mom and mother-in-law raved that Nina made them look 10 years younger! My makeup was everything I could have dreamt of and more - she made me feel beautiful. I have fairly severe keratosis pilaris on my face, which I am very self-conscious about. However, Nina made it disappear with air brushing and contouring - and I didn't see it appear again in one photograph all night. I am convinced that she is a makeup magician. Not only is she wildly talented, but she is kind and patient, and served as a source of calm energy when things around us seemed chaotic! One of my bridesmaids is engaged, and booked Nina immediately after witnessing her work first-hand. I could not recommend Nina and the Cheekadee team highly enough!!

far away from myself. Hailey was able to give me the look that I wanted, enhancing my features and giving me a natural/nude look for the wedding. She made everyone in my party feel comfortable with their looks and myself confident and ready for my big day. She was early at arriving to the hotel (which worked our perfectly for us!), stayed on schedule/a little early, and was able to work with a variety of faces for myself, two bridesmaids, and two moms. An added bonus is that she worked with my and my make-up style to make sure my look would be good with my glasses! I highly recommend Cheekadee to hire for weddings! Not only was Hailey great to work with, Jo and Nina were also a pleasure to communicate with in terms of assisting with scheduling and our make-up timeline. Thank you Cheekadee!

two of our guests that they cannot have the look they wanted due to their “hooded eyes”. We asked that they not upsell additional services like airbrushing and eyelashes to our guests on the day of, which they agreed to— only to then individually offer these services without being clear about the added price. It was very unprofessional and frankly not worth the money. The only real positive was that Meghan (hair artist) seemed to be good, even helping out with a few items when there was down time! Thanks for the help Meghan!

mitted to finding a look for my wedding that fit exactly what I was looking for- and she delivered. She did the makeup for 6 of us on my wedding day (moms, sisters, MOH, and myself) and everyone looked gorgeous, flawless, and like themselves in the best way possible. Thank you, Nina!

rtable in the makeup chair and made sure everyone looked perfect before she left. I couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend Cheekadee to anyone in a heartbeat!

al, I wasn't sure what that sort of makeup would look like, but she picked up on what I wanted immediately and patiently worked with me to fine-tune everything. I absolutely loved the way my makeup look, and her easygoing attitude made me all the more comfortable on what can be a pretty crazy day. Thank you, Nina & Cheekadee!

e coordinating that needed to happen from my end, and they were super willing and flexible to make the trial work with my limited windows of availability. On the day of we had Nina for Makeup and Megan for hair. They were both amazing and super fun to work with. All of the ladies were so happy with their hair and makeup - including myself. They helped me look exactly how I was hoping to look on my wedding day. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

took her time and made sure my makeup was perfect and exactly what I wanted. We all got the traditional makeup and it held all day, despite taking some photos outside in a little rain. Thanks Nina!

cause I had a few questions and she told me it was ok to contact if I needed anything further. The night before she sent me a text to check in and I totally appreciated that. The day of my wedding she showed up early and had a huge detailed note of everything from the trial. Wedding day I wanted a few changes from the initial trial and she did exactly what I asked for. There isn't one thing I would change about how the makeup went ! I would absolutely recommend Nina and the cheekadee team to anyone and would use her again a thousand times. THANKS FOR MAKING MY WEDDING DAY AMAZING!

job. We had 12 girls to get through hair and makeup and we ended up being ahead of schedule and everyone loved how their makeup looked! It is so nice that the makeup artists come to wherever you are and they really make up feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend Cheekadee to anyone!

Aja did our makeup for my wedding just this past September and she did such an amazing job! Everyone looked so beautiful! I absolutely loved my makeup and it held up all night long! I didn't want to take it off at the end of the night. Thank you Aja and Cheekadee!

mend her more!

yself but better) and lasted all day through multiple bouts of crying (it was the best but also such an emotional day) and same for all my bridesmaids. She and her assistant worked super quickly to get us done as soon as possible and coordinated with our hair person to make sure things kept moving, sometimes pausing and returning to girls or fixing eyelashes or something like that. Nina was also super flexible when my mother flip-flopped on whether she wanted her makeup done and squeezed her in at the last minute, no problem, which I really appreciated. Definitely recommend!

urself with beautiful makeup, but not so much makeup that it looks so caked on and you look like a different person. Nina is so sweet and so knowledgeable at what she does, that I would trust her just walking in, having her look at my face, and just letting her do her thing! I would 100% recommend working with Nina for you wedding or even an upcoming an event! She’ll make you look beautiful! You’ll love her also!
