Dani is so sweet, kind, and easy to work with! She did a great job with my wedding day makeup and did a great job with my bridesmaids as well - everyone felt beautiful! I got my makeup done around 9am, and it lasted all night long! I felt so confident and beautiful throughout my entire wedding day.
Danielle did my makeup for my wedding day and I was very pleased with the results! I was battling some redness/dry skin leading up to the wedding and she hydrated my skin and made me look beautiful all day. I felt like myself, just done up which is what I was wanting. She and her team also did the makeup for my bridal party and everyone achieved the look they wanted and were happy with the results. She is very affordable, especially given the quality of her work. I highly recommend her!
Dani is amazing! I booked her for makeup and hair for my wedding and decided to get a few pre-wedding facials with her too.
The facials left my skin feeling wonderful and she was so warm and easy to talk to. I even convinced my partner to go in for a couple facials and he was very happy with the results.
She usually works with Danie Patterson for bridal services and they were so much fun to spend the morning of my wedding with! My friends and I had such a great time getting to know them. They are both also incredibly talented. I do not wear a lot of makeup and Dani made sure to keep me looking like myself, just elevated.
I also wanted to keep my natural curls - I showed Danie a couple pictures at the trial and talked through up vs down. She went right to work and came up with the most beautiful messy up-do to complement my curls. She also suggested using some dried flowers and arranged them in such a gorgeous way.
We were all so happy with our hair and makeup, as well as how lovely they both were to spend time with.
I am so glad that I booked them for my wedding! Really could not recommend them any more highly. I'll also definitely be going back to Dani for facials. She is such a joy!
Danielle is AMAZING! She really took care of us in more ways than just our wedding! All of the services she offers at her store front near Avon, Indiana are fantastic, and her makeup work is gorgeous! I loved not only my makeup, but everyone else's she worked on!
Her hair hair stylist that works with her, Dani, gave us all amazing hair styles for our wedding. Dani worked on 7 people by herself and we all LOVED our hair!!
My husband has a minor skin condition, and Danielle was able to minimize his symptoms with a pre-wedding facial, and with minor makeup on the big day, his skin looked perfect!
Our photographer, More Joy Photography, mentioned that Danielle's makeup was going to make her job editing the pictures super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Danielle was absolutely amazing and a joy to work with. She made me feel like the most beautiful bride ever and it felt like I was wearing no makeup at all, the airbrush felt so light on my skin. Danielle was so easy to get in touch with and get booked. Thank you so much!!
I worked with Dani for my wedding and she was so wonderful! I loved my wedding look and felt beautiful all night long. The airbrush looked flawless and seriously held up the entire evening. I still felt like me, but just a bit fancier. She also recommended a hairstylist and brought another makeup artist, and everyone in my family was so pleased with how they looked. In addition, we had a reschedule due to our venue double-booking and Dani was so accommodating and worked to make sure we were fully covered. I can't recommend her enough!
One of my bridesmaids was in 2 weddings that Danielle did makeup for so she referred me when I was looking for a MUA for my wedding day. Dani is such a sweet lady and very talented! She was helpful when it came to figuring out what makeup would best work with my covid-planning stressed out skin and it stayed on all day! She was also great about adjusting what I was looking for after my trial and my day of makeup was beautiful. She also has connections with hair stylists so if you do not have someone take her up on the offer if she knows someone free on your day. Danie was the one who did my hair and she was great as well! Very happy with this recommendation and I'm happy to recommend Danielle to you too!
I decided to book Danielle based on her reviews and I made the right decision. Danielle was very responsive and we got started right away with facials every month leading up to the big day. She was very helpful in making suggestions to improve my skin. She has all the new tools and treatments, and they’re really cool. I even indulged and got a spray tan and it was the best one I’ve ever had. The big day came and Danielle was very gracious and let us use her studio to get ready, she even bought us coffee and water. She does partner with hair stylists, I worked with Danny, and she did an amazing job on my pixie and my bridesmaids longer thicker hair. My MOH is getting married and decided to hit them for her wedding in November. I can’t say enough good things about my experience and will continue to go to Danielle.
Danielle Wilson is so fun to work with! From my trial run to my actual wedding day, she played DJ and makeup artist! She kept the music going for my bridal party while we all got our makeup done and she did a fantastic job of making my girls and me look and feel beautiful on my big day! Would recommend her to anyone and I can't wait to go to her for other skin care treatments!
Danielle did my bridal makeup, and with her assistant, took care of five bridesmaids and two moms too. I chose Danielle for her impressive work with natural makeup, and she exceeded my expectations. She is so personable and professional, willing to answer questions and responsive to requests. Her work lasted all day and looked great in photos! While I don’t wear a lot of makeup regularly, I felt completely comfortable all day long. I cannot recommend Danielle enough!
Kelly did the make-up for my bridal party and myself and I couldn't have been happier!! She made great conversation and was so sweet! Not to mention, she is super talented. I highly recommend Danielle and her team! The communication is great and you won't be disappointed! Thank you!!!
I absolutely adored Danielle's honesty, accommodating nature, and most importantly, the amazing job she and her partner did for me and my ladies. I don't wear a whole lot of makeup regularly, so I was very unsure and a little uncomfortable going into the dry-run. She made it clear that my opinion was most important, but that she also knows what she's doing. My makeup held up all night, looks great in pictures, AND was fairly easy to take off! Win-win-win!!!
If you need a makeup artist that will listen and aim's to give you the look you envision, Danielle and her team are your go to! I showed the the look I wanted as well as the look for my bridesmaids and gave her the freedom to change whatever she saw fit. Our makeup was flawless, it withstood rain, and photographed beautifully!
Danielle is amazing! She did makeup for me and my bridesmaids for my wedding and it looked beautiful! Danielle is a true professional and knows exactly what she's doing! She made the makeup look natural while accentuating everyone's individual features! Absolutely loved her being part of our day!!
Danielle and her team are simply THE BEST. With 10 women needing make up, Danielle brought 2 other make up artists to help her on my wedding day and I could not have been more pleased with their work! We all looked so incredibly beautiful and very natural and it really shows in my wedding pictures. Danielle was also extremely responsive throughout the planning process and very flexible when I needed to reschedule my make up trial. I simply cannot recommend Danielle enough. Thank you again for helping to make my wedding day so perfect!
Danielle was actually booked on the day of my wedding, so she had someone else cover the day (Kelly). Kelly was an absolute sweetheart, got along with all of my bridal party, and did an absolutely stunning job on mine and my bridesmaids/mothers' makeup. I received numerous compliments, and she made me feel more beautiful than I've ever felt in my life. Danielle coordinated a lot of the details, and working with the two of them was one of the best choices I made in the planning process!
Danielle is fabulous! She was professional, and did an amazing job. She was flexible when working around my schedule for the trial. She made me feel beautiful on my wedding day! The products she used were all high end, and she really knew what she was doing. She also comes to you, which is exactly what I was looking for. My mom and maid of honor also loved their makeup. I highly recommend her!
Danielle and her team are great. She worked with me at my trial to determine the look I wanted and nailed it on the wedding day. Thank you Danielle!!
At the last minute (2ish weeks prior to my wedding) I decided I wanted my make up airbrushed. I reached out to Danielle and she was able to accommodate both me and my. I met with her ahead of time with her for a run through. I was a little hesitant to have my make up professionally done b/c I wanted to make sure I looked like myself when I walked down the aisle. Having the run through made me feel very at ease that I would look like myself just better on my wedding day. She did an excellent job incorporating what I typically do with my makeup and making suggestions.. I received so many compliments on how well my make up looked....both the night of and the next day at breakfast. I was shocked at how well the makeup held up. It was the first time I had ever wore fake lashes and I can't believe how natural the looked. She individually places the lases to make sure they looked perfect.
On the wedding day she arrived on time and was very professional. She not only did my makeup and my sister's makeup but also did lashes on 2 of my bridesmaids who wanted them after seeing how wonderful they looked.
I would recommend Danielle to anyone and would definitely use her again.

I was reluctant to get my makeup done for my wedding since I usually don't wear much and have gone to makeup counters or had my makeup done at salons and walked out unhappy. Going to Danielle was one of the best choices I made for my wedding day!
I did the trial session so I knew what to expect on my wedding day. Danielle is very professional and knows what will look good specifically for you. I was hesitant on the fake lashes but they looked natural and just finished off the whole look. Danielle explained everything as she put it on. I did the airbrush foundation and it looked great for my outdoor wedding & reception even though I was outside for 9 hours in June!
My best friend came in the studio with me the morning of my wedding & when my makeup was done she teared up and said "Now you look like a bride!"
Thank you Danielle!! She also did my airbrush tan a few days before the wedding and it looked completely natural on my very pale skin! Didn't rub on the dress or get streaky when I was sweating. Even lasted a few days into my honeymoon!
Danielle Wilson was my makeup artist for my June wedding. My make was amazing!!! She also did makeup for my bridal party and they were beautiful too.
I had a early wedding with pictures starting at 9am. Danielle was professional and on time. She arrived at the hotel at 6am with her make up kit!!
My make up lasted all day. We had a late night event at 9pm at Dave and Busters and my make up still looked good that night.
Everything went very smoothly and we were all beautiful!!
Daneille came to us on the day of the wedding. Was on time and had a helper. She was so nice and calm and did SUCH an amazing job! I had a bruise the day of my wedding and she covered it up no problem! She is so flexible and my makeup looked flawless!
It was an incredible experience with Ms Danielle's studio.
i got exactly what i wanted and the price was exactly right.
I had never seen my hair look so beautiful!
thank you i felt like a princess for a day!
I have used the spray tanning as well as make up for my wedding with Danielle. She is a pleasure to work with, lots of fun and very understanding if there are any quirks or worries. I had airbrush for my wedding makeup and it was beautiful. Flawless and smooth. It lasted the whole night, even through all of my crazy dancing. My bridesmaids had normal make up done and they were also beautiful. They had the options of how much or how little they wanted to wear and everything turned out wonderfully. Her prices are very good for how well everything turned out.
I would recommend Danielle to anyone that asked about wedding make up.
The Makeup Studio by Danielle Wilson was GREAT! My wedding was located in Bloomington, IN. Danielle's team traveled to us and did an incredible job! I had done my consultation a few weeks before the wedding and had decided i didn't really like the final look. I talked to Danielle and she and her team had it all figured out and sending me new pictures of different color palettes by the end of the day. They even offered to do another consultation just so I would feel comfortable. I passed with confidence that everything would be O.K. The Day arrived and the final look was everything I had asked for! My girls looked beautiful and I felt beautiful! I would highly recommend The Makeup Studio!
Danielle is GREAT. I was in panic mode a couple of weeks right before my wedding day because my previous makeup artist had to cancel. Well as most people know, time is of the essence in wedding planning and I was down to the wire to find a replacement for myself and my awesome Mom. That is when we were told to check out Danielle by my fabulous photographer Kristin Hornberger (check her out too she is in Indy!). Danielle worked with us in such a SHORT time frame and really did what she could to help us out. She comes on location too for the day of event. I told her I wanted something dramatic on my eyes but very simple for the lips and she nailed it perfectly the first time. She does offer a trial before your actual wedding day, which I highly recommend. She can do everything from a very natural look to dramatic. I had the airbrushing done as well, which turned out beautifully. The airbrushing looked very natural and stayed on the entire day through nervous jitters and emotional responses upon seeing my solider and groom for the very first time. She can also do fake eyelashes in a way that they look very natural (individuals instead of strips). Over all I would really recommend her to anyone. She is laid back, bubbly, and really listens to what you want to give you the best possible result. She always wants to make sure you are happy with your final look. Full stars for Danielle! Especially for helping us out in a bind. :)
Danielle did my wedding makeup, and I'm completely satisfied with her work! When I look back on pictures of my wedding day, I'm amazed how flawless my skin looks. She even worked out my trial run so it could be on the day of my wedding shower so I could look amazing for that too. She's so easy to work with, and I would recommend her to all of my friends!
Danielle travelled to Bloomington and even set up shop in my local hair salon. She was helpful with her recommendations, and my matron of honor and I both looked gorgeous. Definitely get the airbrush- I never worried about my makeup all night!
Despite an early start time -- about 9ish for a 5 p.m. wedding -- my make-up lasted well through the day and into the night. All of the time spend in Danielle's capable hands was worth it when the first thing my groom said to me was, "You're beautiful!"
I had an idea of how I wanted to look -- mainly soft, pretty, dewy -- and Danielle made it happen. My bridesmaids looked sophisticated and beautiful.
I would not hesitate to recommend Danielle and her team, ever -- just a word of advice: She books up early so grab her up NOW!
Danielle was very nice and she did a good job with my makeup. She responded promptly to my emails too. But she was 30 minutes late and I missed taking outdoor pictures with my bridesmaids because we did not have enough time.
Danielle's studio did makeup for my entire wedding party and was AWESOME! The two artists who did our makeup were so sweet and on time :) Definitely recommend this studio!!!
Danielle did a trial run of my make-up before to make sure it was going to be exactly what I wanted on my wedding day. On the day of she came to the hotel where we were getting ready and did my make-up. She airbrushed my foundation and applied eyelashes, etc. It came out beautifully and I couldn't be happier. It looked great in the pictures!
I hired to Danielle at The Makeup Studio for my wedding day makeup and spray tanning. She was excellent to work with and so talented! She did everything I asked and offered suggestions during the trial so that I looked exactly how I wanted to on my wedding day. She came to our hotel room in downtown Indianapolis, where we were getting ready, and she also did my mom and mother-in-law's makeup. We were all thrilled with the results and our makeup lasted well past our midnight champagne toast. Big thanks to Danielle for helping to give me a smooth wedding day!
Danielle did my make-up for my wedding day, as well as my mom's and MOH. She was absolutely great. This included my trial well. She really wanted to be sure I was comfortable with my "look". She came to us at the salon. The package I purchased from her was more reasonably priced than other other vendor I found.
Wonderful job!!
Danielle did a beautiful job on both myself and my maid of honor. Made me feel amazing on my big day!
Danielle did my makeup for my wedding and it looked great! The pictures are amazing thanks to her. She was one of the easiest of all my vendors to work with due to her quick response and follow-up!
Danielle was great to work with & did a wonderful job on my wedding day makeup. It looked natural & stayed all day & night. I would recommend her to anyone!
Absolutely amazing work! We had an early start to the morning and Danielle was so great about getting there early in the morning and doing all my airbrushed makeup. Everything turned out just beautiful and it stayed in place for 12+ hours. It was just as perfect that night as it was that morning. I almost didn't want to wash the makeup off that night because it still looked so perfect!
Danielle was awesome. She was friendly and made myself and the wedding party look absolutely amazing on the big day (7/2/2011.) The wedding was an outdoor ceremony on a 92 degree afternoon. People kept coming up to me at the reception and telling me how flawless my make up looked after the heat, the dancing and even the cake smashing!
She is truly a professional who makes sure that you have the look YOU want and not just the look that she prefers (as had been my experience as a bridesmaid for other brides.) She arrived on site to do our make up and never acted the least bit flustered even as one bridesmaid decided at he last minute to have make up done.I felt like Danielle was an old friend by the time I left the trial run. I would recommend her to any brides.
Danielle is great at what she does and very professional! She made me look like a princess on my wedding day. My makeup was flawless and I felt amazing. I hope you choose Danielle for your wedding or special occasion. You won't be disappointed.
Danielle did airbrush for me for my wedding and it was absolutely amazing! I felt so beautiful, and the makeup turned out great in pictures! It stayed on all day, and I needed very little touchups as the day went on. I was very happy and satisfied with her. On top of the great work she did, she was very friendly and very professional. It was great working with her and I hope I get to hire her again soon!
Danielle was amazing!! I hired her for my wedding makeup and also for my mother and MOH. She is so professional and knows what she is doing. I'm not a huge makeup fan and she knew exactly how to make me look beautiful on my wedding day! I can't recommend her enough!!
Danielle was wonderful to work with. My makeup was flawless and she was open to anything I wanted to try. She wanted to make sure that I looked exactly the way I envisioned in my head and made me feel completely comfortable all at the same time. I would recommend Danielle to anyone who is looking to get their makeup done for any type of big event!
I used Danielle for my bridal makeup and she's great!! She also did makeup for my mom, mother-in-law and 3 of my bridesmaids and everyone was thrilled! I highly recommend Danielle Wilson for your wedding or any occasion where you want to have your makeup done, she's fabulous!
The makeup looked great on me and my mom, especially in pictures. Air brush foundation stayed on all day. Danielle was easy to work with, is very nice, and a quick responder on to emails/phone calls/etc. She was very flexible when it came to scheduling the trial. She gives you a kit with blotting papers and lip color. It was great to have her come to the hotel instead of having to travel to a studio.
Danielle was so great doing my make-up and the make-up for my bridal party! She made everyone look absolutely gorgeous, and was very professional and laid-back...she even suggested a hairdresser to do our hair, and she was equally amazing. Danielle is definitely someone I would love to work with again if I ever have the opportunity!
I found Danielle's website on facebook, and scheduled a trial. I was cautious because I had never had my make-up airbrushed, and it was for my wedding...the big day! I felt on top of the world when I left her studio. My family loved the application, and most of all I did as well. She was very professional, detailed, and listened to the look I wanted. I have since referred her, and will continue.
I was referred to Danielle Wilson by Wanda Thompson (Glam, etc) who I hired to do my bridesmaids hair for my wedding. I couldnt have asked for a better make-up artist for my wedding. I wear make-up but I wanted to look perfect on my wedding day and have make-up that didnt rub off or fade throughout such a long and busy day. Danielle had me come to her office for a "trial-run" where she did exactly the type of look that I wanted. Then on my big day, she came to me and made myself look BEAUTIFUL! I was sooo happy with her. My pictures looked flawless and I got soo many compliments that day about my eyes/make-up. I would definitely recommend Danielle to do your make-up application for any occasion.
Loved Danielle! She did a wonderful job of giving me a 1930s vintage makeup look. Very professional and personable. I was in love with the makeup trial, and the day-of the wedding was even better. Definitely recommend her!
I hired Danielle to do my my makeup, along with my mother's and my sisters (MOH) for my 10.2.10 wedding, and I'm so happy I went with her! I had been debating on whether to hire a makeup artist for a while, and eventually decided that I wanted to treat myself and I'm so happy I did!
Danielle is so sweet, professional, and a true artist of her craft. My trial and my day of makeup matched perfectly, and she listened and worked with me to create a wedding day look that complemented my FI's and I's vision for the day and my personal wedding day style. I looked like the best version of myself on my wedding day thanks to Danielle!
My FI was worried when he learned that I had hired a makeup artist that I would look unnatural and even he commented that I looked so beautiful, and was a glowing version of my everyday self. Her airbrushing technique, flawless eyelash application, extensive knowledge of product, and all out love of her job made her the perfect choice for me.
Take it from a real bride, if you're looking for a makeup artist who is that and more, then choose Danielle Wilson! For the amazing work she does, her rates are 100% reasonable, and her personality is great to boot. I'd recommend her to any bride or woman seeking special occasion makeup application.
