Hi! I'm Erin. I have had a passion for hairstyling since I was a teen, creating unique updos and elaborate braids for anyone I could get my hands on. I began doing wedding hair in 2010 and opened my company in 2015. With well over ten years of experience in the wedding industry, I still get excited and inspired with every bride. I hand picked my makeup artist, Heidi, based not solely on her incredibly talent but by her warmth, kindness and passion. As a team we create meaningful relationships and connections through our work, while also making you look and feel your very best.

Erin was so awesome to work with from booking all the way to the big day! I felt immediately comfortable with her and her team during my trial when I didn’t know exactly what I had...

envisioned for myself, but they offered their expertise to make me look and feel so beautiful! All of our hair and makeup looked perfect, lasted all night, and truly highlighted everyone’s natural beauty. Working with Erin was such a great decision in my wedding planning journey. Can’t recommend enough :)

I can not recommend Erin and her team highly enough! They came out to the middle of nowhere for my wedding and did an absolutely amazing job. The wedding party (Bride, 5 bridesmaid...

s and 2 moms) all had such different hair types and skin tones and we were all so happy with our results and everyone looked stunning! (They even trimmed up the groom before the ceremony which was really appreciated!) The hair and makeup trial beforehand was great because what I wanted wasn't exactly the best choice for my hair type and texture. I ended up with something completely different and SO much better than what I wanted going in. Erin's recommendations were absolutely perfect. As a bride planning my own wedding, it was so nice to have such a great team to work with. They were so professional and responsive throughout the entire process that I knew I didn't have to worry about anything or stress over the details. Communication was great and all of the contracts and paperwork were received on time and correct. Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job for my wedding and for making us all look and feel absolutely beautiful!

Hiring Daymaker brides was the best decision ever! I was so happy I was able to secure Erin for my hair and makeup since I had the most popular wedding date that year and all my pr...

eferred vendors were booked but I made sure to contact Erin as soon as I got engaged! She is the perfect balance of professional and being personal and connecting with you to where you feel like you've known her for years. I had a lot of family drama during my wedding planning and even wedding day and when I sat in the chair to have Erin do my hair and makeup all the issues seemed to fade away and I was able to relax and enjoy getting ready. I highly recommend Daymaker Brides because they truly make your day and feel like the most beautiful bride!
