I’m extremely happy with my experience working with Leah and Sye for my wedding! I couldn’t be happier with how my hair and makeup turned out. Everyone in my group who received their services looked absolutely stunning. Leah even worked wonderfully with my 94-year-old grandmother, creating a hairstyle that was beautiful and comfortable for her.
Leah and Sye’s communication was clear, professional, and organized. I felt I could trust them to handle the job from the start, and they absolutely delivered. They are extremely skilled and kind.
For my wedding, my bridesmaids and I had many wonderful compliments on our hair and makeup.
Leah was very easy to communicate with and she had Adrieanna arranged for my preview appointment for hair and makeup.
Adrieanna showed up on time and did a fabulous job of doing my hair and makeup as I wanted. She's very talented. She listens well and if there was anything needing adjusting she happily adjusted it, both on the preview and wedding day.
On the morning of my wedding day, Adrieanna showed up on time and ready to make us look our best. She had to do hair and makeup for my Officiant, two bridesmaids, and myself. The ladies looked gorgeous after she finished!
While having my makeup done I was feeling a little overwhelmed and teary eyed (happy tears), Adrieanna did a great job at distracting me and reminding me to breathe, she even handed me a fan to give myself some air which helped a lot!
I loved my hair and makeup, and it stayed on for the rest of the day even through many happy tears!
I’m also thankful she stayed a few extra minutes and helped me with my dress. Whew! All went splendid! She’s wonderful!
I hired Dreamcatcher Artistry for my bridal hair and makeup for my wedding in Santa Barbara. They were AMAZING. We had Adrieanna and Leah and I couldn't say anything more positive about them because they absolutely crushed it. Leah was very communicative from the beginning and was extremely organized. She was very accommodating, helpful and flexible. They helped do 8 different services in a very short time frame on our wedding day in a very tight hotel room and executed everything flawlessly. They listened to the various requests from all of us getting ready and made suer we were happy with the results before they left. They worked around a lot of different skin tones (from pale to dark skin) and lots of different hair types (including extensions) and did so without any issues or complaints!
All of us were amazed and very happy with our makeup and hair. I'm so happy with the results - I've seriously never felt prettier thanks to Adrieanna and Leah. I would highly recommend hiring Dreamcatcher Artistry - you will not be disappointed!
Any questions?
I am so happy that I chose Dreamcatcher as my hair and makeup vendor for my wedding. First of all, the owner Leah is a wonderful person and a joy to work with. I had 4 artists working in the bridal suite the day of my wedding, and all of them were so great! Talented, professional, and lovely to be around. I had multiple bridesmaids tell me it was the best wedding party makeup they ever had. I had Sye as my bridal artist, and she knocked it out the park! I have never felt more beautiful. Couldn't have been more impressed with the whole Dreamcatcher team.
I did not find my experience as wonderful as everyone seems to have had. My contract with another company was absorbed by Dreamcatcher Artistry and I soon realized I was paying extra to a company that is pretty much just a middle person and probably taken a massive cut for another woman's work. I found that I was asked questions and then without disclosure, charged addition fees, which I then contested as it should never have been additional costs. I felt like this company looks to nickel and dime it's clients, which seems a bit cheap considering I was already paying a couple thousand dollars just three women for hair and makeup, one little girl for hair, and for my husband to basically have his hair brushed/styled. I am happy to pay well for good service, but do not appreciate when it is done in a dishonest way. When it came to scheduling, I was not very impressed by the effort to be proactive in making a pretty simple schedule request work so I could make it for my first look timing. Luckily, I was able to suggest a solution since the response I previous got was no help at all. Overall, I wish I had known how this worked and had found a makeup artist to contract with directly. The makeup artist herself was fantastic. Star deductions have nothing to do with the quality of the artist, who I was happy to additionally tip for her work. My advise to women contracted to Dreamcatcher is to be your own advocate and know when you are getting ripped off.
Response from the Vendor on 08/19/2024
Lindsay, thank you for your feedback. I’m truly sorry to hear that your experience with our company didn’t meet your expectations. We strive to ensure every bride has a wonderful experience, and it’s disheartening to learn that we fell short in...
your case.
I tried reaching out to you by phone followed by two emails last week to discuss your concerns directly, as I believe open communication is the best way to resolve any issues. We even sent a followup email a few weeks after your wedding as we do with all of our brides to see how everything went, with no response. Based on our previous correspondence, we were unaware of the extent of your concerns beyond the request to waive the room change fee. I’d like to address some of your specific points in hopes of clarifying any misunderstandings.
As you know, Dreamcatcher Artistry acquired Rozetree Bridal earlier this year. We honored everything in your original contract with Rozetree. However, when you added additional services that were not offered by Rozetree, there were additional costs involved. We always aim to be transparent about our pricing, but I understand that since your initial booking was with Rozetree, you may not have been fully aware of these details. We did our best to inform you of any extra costs as soon as we began working on the additional services you requested. It’s never our intention to add unexpected fees, and we genuinely try to be upfront and clear about all costs.
Regarding the scheduling concerns, we always strive to be as flexible as possible. When you requested a time change, your artist already had another commitment that morning. While she did her best to accommodate the new timing, it was unfortunately beyond our control. We did try to keep the conversation open asking for you and your coordinators thoughts on the matter, as we always aim to find the best outcome for everyone involved. We understand how important timing is on your wedding day and regret that this caused you any stress.
I also want to highlight that we are proud of the compensation rates we offer our talented artists. Fees like the room change fee are in place to ensure our artists are fairly compensated for the additional time and effort required for tasks such as setup, teardown, and sanitation. As an artist myself, I’ve worked with teams that didn’t value my time, and our policies are designed to ensure fair treatment and compensation for everyone on our team.
Lastly, I want to mention that we provided two artists for your event without charging an additional travel fee, as I specifically wanted to avoid any unnecessary costs for you.
Again, I am deeply sorry that your experience with us wasn’t what you hoped for. I would have appreciated the opportunity to discuss this with you personally, as we are a hardworking, family-owned business dedicated to creating the best possible experience for our brides and providing meaningful work for our artists. If there’s anything we can do to make this right, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
They did such a fantastic job with hair and makeup! The bridal hair/makeup preview went very smoothly and I knew myself and my ladies would be well taken care of wedding day. They're very good at any makeup look (natural, bold, you name it they can do it) and are also mindful of any allergies. The artists were so sweet and communication before wedding day was also fantastic. I felt so beautiful wedding day! My hair stayed perfect all day and so did my makeup. Highly recommend!
I had a fantastic experience with Dreamcatcher, who did make up for my wedding. They were communicative and responsive. I was looking for an elegant but natural look, and it turned out exactly how I wanted it to.
Leah and team were so easy to work with! We recently did a wedding with her and team as videographers and they were so professional and allowed us to get the shots we needed with the bride and bridal party without a hassle! Would 10/10 recommend!
I highly recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry after a fantastic experience with them on my wedding day. Leah and Chris are clear and quick with communication, worked with our timeline for the day and answered all of my questions ahead of time. A couple months ahead of the wedding day, Sye did my bridal preview and put together a look that made me feel special but still like myself.
Sye and Megan were our artists day of, both incredibly skilled at their craft. Everyone receiving services felt beautiful and had a lot of fun throughout the experience on the day of. We were a group that is pretty variable with their comfort around hair and makeup and everyone was at ease. A special thank you to Megan for taking the time to talk through each aspect with my mom for her makeup in order to make her feel special but still maintain a minimal look - she went into the experience a bit nervous and was really happy with the outcome. Sye did an amazing job with my hair and makeup on the day of -- I am so grateful for her expertise and calm presence. It was truly a wonderful day and I am so happy Dreamcatcher Artistry was part of it!
I am so glad I decided to hire Dreamcatcher Artistry for my makeup at my elopement at SF City Hall! Sye provided a house call to my apartment, and did a beautiful job even without a makeup trial beforehand. Her energy was extremely calming and she was so sweet to be around, and made me feel so beautiful.
The Dreamcatcher team were communicative, reliable, and very professional throughout the process. I was extremely pleased with the final result and would recommend Dreamcatcher to anyone.
Sye from Dreamcatcher Artistry did an excellent job on wedding hair and makeup for me, my sister, and my mom. The process of working with Dreamcatcher was very smooth. I was looking for wedding hair and makeup that made me feel like a more polished version of my normal self, and Dreamcatcher fit the bill perfectly. Sye crafted a great look for me based on just a few inspiration photos, and I felt really confident with the natural look we ended up doing. Both my makeup and hair also stood up to unexpected bad weather and a wild dance floor. I loved working with Sye and would strongly recommend both Sye and Dreamcatcher.
My wife worked with Stephanie for her and her bridal party's hair and makeup. She was highly attentive and personable, and incorporated all of her feedback from the trial. Additionally, she gave highly helpful advice on areas where she could have lighter coverage without it affecting her appearance, and was provided direction and advice for members of the party who needed help choosing what kind of make-up to apply.
On the day-of, both Stephanie and Ashley did a fantastic job working with a variety of hair types, skin colors, and makeup styles. They both finished on time, which was a huge deal for us.
I had the best experience with Dreamcatcher. Leah and her team are excellent. Super responsive and easy to coordinate with and they listen to what you want. My artist, Nancy, was one of the highlights of my wedding day. She did a phenomenal job on my makeup as well as my mom and sisters. She understood the assignment and delivered the natural look we had asked for during our make up trial. She had spent time asking for feedback and making adjustments during the trial so on the actual wedding day I I could enjoy a rare moment of peace with my eyes closed while she worked. She was so sweet and patient and helped set the tone for a dreamy day. I would absolutely recommend her and Dremcatcher to all my friends!
Leah did my hair and makeup and did my bridesmaids' and flower girls' hair for my wedding, and we loved the experience! I did a hair and makeup trial with Leah for my engagement photos, and she incorporated the minor feedback I had into my wedding day hair and makeup. Overall, she understood the vibe I was going for and didn't overwhelm me as someone who essentially never does their makeup or hair. She was cool to talk to (we bonded over our shared love of owning chickens) and handled everyone's varying personalities and moods on the wedding day so well. I highly recommend you check out Dreamcatcher Artistry for your wedding hair and makeup needs!
Dreamcatcher was a joy to work with! They were always prompt in replying and incredibly friendly. My artist Chelsea was amazing. We spent enough time chatting that I really felt like she understood what I was looking for in my hair and makeup, and she took tons of notes after the preview so I felt confident she could repeat it well on the wedding day (she did!). A few of my bridesmaids also had their hair and/or makeup done and she was great with them as well. Everyone was really happy and I'd definitely work with her/Dreamcatcher Artistry again!
Beyond thrilled with my experience with Dreamcatcher Artistry and our amazing artists Ashlee and Kirsten. From initial communication to building timelines to the wedding day, everything was seamless and wonderful.
I chose to do a makeup trial with Ashlee and she completely nailed the look I wanted (even though I struggled to articulate it) on the first try which made me extra excited for day-of (and she replicated it perfectly).
Both Ashlee and Kirsten arrived to our bridal AirBnB prepared and ready to complete hair and makeup for four (4) bridesmaids, two (2) moms, and myself (all with different skin tones, hair textures/thickness/colors, skin sensitivities, and ages) and every single person loved the outcomes.
As the bride I felt absolutely beautiful and the makeup and hair lasted the entire day.

The team at Dreamcatcher Artistry has always been so quick with communication. This was a huge perk for me because I'll be that person who often has questions at random times and I always knew someone was checking their email and responding. I really appreciated this.
Ashlee was my hair and makeup artist and she was stellar. Even though I pulled a last minute change on what I wanted to do with my hair and makeup, she adapted and delivered. She also did my mom and sister's hair and makeup for my wedding and did a great job. Aside from her work, she was always great company, a great conversation and I felt well taken care of with her. I was so fortunate to have her on my team
I absolutely loved working with Sye! I was very particular in how I wanted to look for the wedding. She really listened to what I wanted and was patient with the number of requests I had. On the day, I felt beautiful, but also like myself. The rest of the team was also great. Everyone was super happy with how their hair and makeup turned out. Would highly recommend!
I loved EVERYBODY’S hair and makeup the day of my wedding! I got Sye for makeup (and hair for me) and Nora for my bridesmaids’ hair. Everything turned out so beautiful. I sent in super blurry inspiration pictures, but Sye made the most of it and nailed my makeup look.
Originally, my bridesmaids only wanted their hair done and Dreamcatcher sent me a timeline with one artist that started at 4 IN THE MORNING. I asked if we could add an additional artist, but was told we could only add a second one if I purchased ten services. With the early hour fees, it was almost as expensive to add the second artist, so I gifted makeup services to my Maid of Honor and Matron of Honor.
I hired Leah to do hair and makeup for myself (mother of the groom) and 5 other members of my family. She was very responsive from my initial contact through the morning of the big day and made the planning process so easy. She and her associate both arrived on time and stuck to the schedule we had worked out so that everyone was ready in plenty of time. Since we all traveled in from out of town, we weren't able to take advantage of her offer to do a preview session so we had to trust her to deliver what we asked for. I made it clear that I wanted a natural look and was very pleased with the results of her work.
For our wedding, I wanted an old Hollywood glam look. I met my makeup artist Stephanie day off and boy did she deliver!! She was INCREDIBLE! She really listened to my bridesmaid and I of what we wanted for hair and makeup and went above and beyond what we could have imagined! She was incredibly polite, easy to work with and caring towards all of us. Plus it was very easy to work with Dreamcatcher Artistry, tell them what we wanted and get that delivered! Thank you so much Dreamcatcher Artistry and Stephanie for making our day so special!
I booked Dreamcatcher Artistry to do makeup for my wedding and I’m so happy I did. Chrystal, our MUA, is extremely talented and made me and my wedding party feel absolutely beautiful for the big day. I’m more less is more when it comes to makeup, and I’ve never had my makeup done before, so I was a bit nervous going into the process because I wanted to look done up on my wedding day, but still look like myself. Chrystal was so amazing at listening to what I wanted (and what my wedding party wanted) when it came to makeup and the makeup was absolutely perfect! If I ever need to get my makeup done again, I will definitely be calling her!!
I was so happy and thrilled with my experience with Dreamcatcher Artistry. Leah the owner worked through all of the contracting and prep work. I filled out a questionnaire with pictures of I was looking to do for my wedding day. I had scheduled a trial prior and was matched with Sye who was SO lovely.
The trial was at my home and she came self-contained with everything she needed. I highly recommend the trial and it helped me see firsthand what my make up would look like. After the trial, I came up with a handful of adjustments that I wanted to make on my makeup and hair.
The day of wedding, Sye and another makeup artist came to do mine and my bridesmaids' makeup. I along with the other girls were so happy with how beautiful and natural our makeup looked that day.
It was the first time I actually liked my hair and makeup done by a professional and lasted all through the night.
Dreamcatcher Artistry is just that - a dream to work with! My wedding coordinator raved about their work and after reaching out to Leah I knew that’s who I wanted to work with! Adrieanna did my hair and makeup and all the girls hair. She’s sweet, easy to work with, and good at what she does! Candace did most of the bridesmaids and moms makeup , and everyone could not stop saying how good of a job she did! Highly recommend this great team, you will not be disappointed! Thank you for everything!
Chelsea did a wonderful job with my hair and makeup over two days. She was so kind when I wasn’t happy with my hair during our trial and agreed to do a second hair trial that went perfectly. She was attentive to the images I sent and the way I was responding to the hair and makeup - and I can truly say I’ve never felt more beautiful. Just as important to me was that she was able to deal with the multiple personalities around me and the things that go wrong on a wedding day with grace, patience, and a problem-solving attitude. Nancy helped with hair and make-up for the women in our family the day of the wedding, and everyone seemed happy with the results. Everyone’s make-up and hair lasted from the morning until the afterparty, easily. Dreamcatcher typically will match you with whichever artists are free for your event, so I really recommend requesting the name of the artist and their portfolio before booking! Many of them have different styles.
I hired Dreamcatcher Artistry for my wedding and am SO glad that I did. They have my HIGHEST recommendation. Don't go with anyone else!! Leah, the owner, patiently worked with me from our original 5/2020 date through 2 postponements and a change of venue and city! She was SO patient and so easy to work with throughout all the pandemic craziness. Nora and Steven did hair and makeup for my sisters-in-law, my sister, my mother, and me. They both did a fantastic job and everyone looked beautiful! Nora especially went above and beyond the call of duty. I completely changed my mind about the look between my preview and my wedding day, and she handled it like a total champ!! She did a STUNNING job on my hair and makeup, and she was so incredibly kind to me during probably the most stressful few hours of my life. She literally helped me figure out how to put in my contacts (I never wear them) and stepped in to help button my dress when my mom was having a hard time due to arthritis in her thumbs. I had her stay for a few extra hours for touch ups (HIGHLY recommend - she touched me up right before I walked down the aisle and then again right before photos, so I didn't have to think twice about how I looked at any point). Hire Dreamcatcher Artistry for your big day. They will take wonderful care of you and you will feel confident and beautiful!
I hired Dreamcatcher to do my bridal hair and to do hair and makeup for my bridesmaids. I had a small bridal party so we worked with one artist, we were lucky enough to get to work with Leah on the big day. Leah did such an awesome job with everyone's hair and make up. She was a calm presence and made sure everyone was happy with their final results. All of my bridesmaids looked and felt beautiful! I let my bridesmaids pick their own styles but I did tell Leah I wanted a soft glam vibe and she executed perfectly. For my bridal hair I used clip in extensions. Leah made sure nothing was pulling and that I was comfortable. She matched my inspiration exactly and made sure everything stayed in place. She even showed my photograph how to put in and take out my veil for later. Overall it was a great experience, everyone's hair and make up lasted all night!
I hired Dreamcatcher for my bridal hair and makeup (as well as a trial). They were extremely professional and easy to communicate with. Chelsea did my hair and makeup and I loved it!! She perfectly nailed what I was going for just based on a few pictures and to top it off she's extremely nice and just fun to be around.
I hired Dreamcatcher Artistry to do my bridal makeup and the makeup for my 4 bridesmaids and mother. They were referred to me by my wedding coordinator and I was paired with Chrystal, who I cannot say enough good things about! Months before my wedding I did a makeup trial with Chrystal at my home, and I knew immediately that she was going to be great. She had such a friendly, bubbly, demeanor and really listened when I said that I wanted to look like a "natural glam" version of myself. I showed her some inspo pics on Pinterest and she totally nailed my vision. I reached out to her about a week before my wedding because I had some tan lines that I was concerned about and she recommended a high coverage makeup that perfectly did the trick. On the day of, she worked quickly but gave everyone the attention that they wanted, and was able to adjust to everyone's particular requests. I have never felt so beautiful before and would 100% hire Dreamcatcher again and recommend them to all my friends.
Leah was recommended to me by my wedding coordinator and I'm so happy she was available for my wedding! From my first inquiry, I knew she was going to be awesome! She was very responsive and even asked for some photos to give her an idea of my wedding inspiration. At my trial, she gave me a look that was flawless and timeless but I wanted to make some minor changes for the wedding day. The morning of my wedding Leah was right on time even a little early. She worked with me step by step with such patience the morning of to ensure that I nailed the look I was going for. Everyone looked amazing and they couldn't believe how natural the airbrush looked and how each artist helped them achieve what they were asking for! I was so calm all morning because I knew I was in such great hands. Our makeup looked great all night long needling no touch-ups. I could not believe I looked the exact same by the end of the night having been on the dance floor the whole time. I can't recommend Leah and her team enough, she is so talented and passionate about her job. If you are looking for an experienced, organized, and very talented make-up artist to achieve your dream look on your big day look further. Leah is sure to give you all of that and much much more!
Leah and her team were top notch!! Truly was an amazing experience! Leah worked with me for the entire weekend with multiple events and every day my hair and makeup was exactly what I pictured but even better than imagined!! On our wedding day - every single person was so increibly happy with their hair and makeup and everyone looked incredible! I have been in many weddings where that is not even close to the case!!
I could not recommend Leah and her team anymore! She worked with me to get every detail of my hair and makeup perfect!
Dreamcatcher is amazing, I can't recommend them highly enough! Working with Leah was wonderful. She has such a fun, easygoing vibe and brings exactly the kind of energy you want on your wedding day. She is super thoughtful about everything from how to plan the morning timeline to keep things relaxed and avoid any rushing, to how to best use the trial to make sure everyone feels clear and confident about the plan on the day. She is just a joy to be around, and of course is also a pro at what she does! She did a fantastic job with my hair and makeup. Everything felt simple, clean, and natural, and lasted all day and night. I felt beautiful, confident, and like myself, just a little fancier :) Thanks so much Leah and Dreamcatcher for an incredible experience!
Dreamcatcher Artistry was wonderful from beginning to end. Someone’s was also available for questions and they were very communicative through the planning process. Adrieanna did hair and makeup for our wedding and not only was she talented but she was wonderfully calm and fun to chat with. Great experience!
Dreamcatcher Artistry is the best-- I highly recommend this company! They are so professional and well-organized in the planning process, and the artists are wonderful and very nice to work with. It was a pleasure working with Leah overall.
Dreamcatcher Artistry did the hair and makeup for my wedding and they are amazing! Chelsea did my makeup and hair and the hair of my bridesmaids (which included a gorgeous up-do, a half-up/half-down, natural waves, and a waterfall braid), and Chrystal did makeup for my bridesmaids. - their artistry is amazing. We all wanted a natural, romantic look with some pop - and the end result was beautiful, elegant and romantic. We looked like bombshell model versions of ourselves (but still ourselves, which was important to my husband). Our faces and hair lasted the entire day & evening, through an outdoor daytime ceremony, photos, dinner and a very fun dance party afterward. Both Chelsea and Chrystal were fun to have in the room with us for the 4+ hours of getting ready - conversation was easy and fun and we laughed a lot (which is a very important thing I didn’t necessarily consider but lucked out on!). Lastly, it was easy to work with Leah. She responded to all of my questions very quickly and setting up a contract was easy. I had an idea of the schedule from day 1 and that helped for a seamless day overall. My bridesmaids and I (and my husband) highly recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry!
Leah was amazing and did a beautiful job on everyone's hair and makeup, including Bride, Maid of Honor, Flower Girl, and Mother of the Bride. You get what you pay for and Dream Catcher was worth every penny. She came to the venue and had a completely professional set up. Everything was clean, organized, and our makeup artist was easygoing and fun to be around. She was able to create looks for us based on photos we showed her of what we wanted, and made everyone look perfect. She even provided touch-up lipstick for the bride that I could use throughout the evening. She was on-time and made sure that she managed the appointment so that there was wiggle room to adjust peoples looks if anyone was un-happy. I have really heavy hair, and she managed to create a look that stayed intact all evening without compromising what I wanted. Thank you Dreamcatcher Artistry for taking the stress out of looking beautiful for my wedding day.
If I had to do it all again, I would 100% use Dreamcatcher Artistry. So professional and SO talented. Use them, they're the best!
Sye from Dreamcatcher did an AMAZING job for my city hall civil ceremony! She arrived on time and was extremely organized and efficient, even ending 15 mins early despite having to do both my hair AND make-up herself. Both my hair and make-up looked fabulous -- Sye achieved exactly the looks that I wanted for both. Besides doing a fantastic job, Sye was also super nice and great to chat with throughout the whole appointment.
Dreamcatcher Artistry did a fantastic job for my wedding! Couldn’t have asked for anything better, and they were super friendly and communicative
I’m so happy Dreamcatcher Artistry was there on my wedding day! Leah and Nora, our hair & makeup artists, did an absolutely amazing job! I would definitely recommend 10/10!
You can't go wrong with Dreamcatcher Artistry! They're absolutely the best and a must-hire for your wedding. Leah and Nora, my make-up artist, were very professional, friendly and made my make-up and hairstyle as I wanted them to be, but also gave me suggestions and made changes when needed. They were also very flexible as they had to accommodate my service in less than two days. They made my wedding photoshoot day the best!
Working with Dreamcatcher Artistry was a great experience! Leah was prompt with her pre-wedding communication and my hair/makeup artist (Adrieanna) was wonderful! She was personable, talented, and my hair and makeup looked fabulous! I highly recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry for your wedding or special event.
I would highly recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry for wedding hair/makeup. Leah and I emailed back and forth and she was extremely responsive, professional, and kind. I originally reached out to Leah back in 2019 when I scheduled my hair/makeup trial and booked her team for our 2020 wedding. I couldn't have been more grateful to work with her through a COVID wedding postponement. She was so understanding and we were able to move everything over to our new 2021 date, as well as keep my artist that I had my trial with booked for the new date. In the months leading up to the wedding, I emailed Leah with SO many changes and I couldn't have been more appreciative of how she handled everything. I would choose her and her team over and over again.
Hayley was my artist for the trial and the day of the wedding. She was such a joy to be around. She was friendly, kind, and as a pleasure to be around. She remembered / referenced everything that we discussed during the trial (two years before!) and made the few small adjustments I had requested. I was nervous that my curls would fall flat and so she made sure to address that. It was windy and rainy during our wedding and I was so relieved when everything held in place! I have nothing but great things to say about her. She did the makeup of some of my bridesmaids and they were all very impressed by her as well. We were out in the elements and everything held in place.
Chelsea and Katie were our other two hair & makeup artists and though they didn't work on my hair and makeup, my bridal party had nothing but wonderful things to say about them. They were also both a pleasure to have around that morning and everyone had nothing but wonderful things to say about them.
Hayley, Chelsea, and Katie all had to drive through an atmospheric river event and brave the elements to get to the hotel where we were getting ready early that morning and they all arrived on time and in good spirits. Thanks so much to Leah and this incredible team for making my day wonderful, making me feel so beautiful, and for being such a pleasure to work with!
I would highly recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry to anyone looking for a makeup and hair artist. Leah did a trial and then day of hair and makeup for my wedding this summer and I am so happy with how everything went. Leah was impressively on top of all communications and helped everything go so smoothly. She is very professional, talented, and was fun to spend time with. I definitely was feeling nervous about the makeup/hair process and Leah did a great job at listening to what I was thinking and with talking me through the process and with trying out various options. I was so happy with how everything turned out and felt so beautiful. Any expectations I had were greatly exceeded. If you want an exceptionally talented, professional, kind, and fun makeup/hair artist then you should absolutely go with Leah and Dreamcatcher Artistry.
Leah did both my makeup and hair for my wedding. She was so incredible! She made me look gorgeous and it didn’t look overdone. Everything was very intricate, but she made it look easy. My makeup was natural and flawless. My mom was just saying the other day how amazed she was that my makeup stayed perfect all night despite all of my happy crying, haha. I also of course have to mention how Leah was very professional, always on time and quickly responded to all questions I had. I actually emailed her many times about random questions, like when and how to get my haircut beforehand, different ideas I had for styling, questions about mascara, etc. She was so sweet about it and never made me feel like my questions were stupid. She made me feel so confident on my wedding day, and it was everything I could have asked for.
I used Dreamcatcher for my wedding hair and make up as well as makeup for my bridesmaids and mother. They did a great job answering any questions and were very organized with the whole setup/scheduling process, which was great as I live in Oregon. Both of the artists listened to what I wanted and my bridesmaids, mom, and I loved what they did, plus everything lasted through the wedding, reception, and bars afterwards. Would definitely recommend them!
Leah is awesome, she was so helpful during our planning process. She even changed up the schedule last minute to accommodate my anxiety. Everyone loved their hair and make up and we received so many compliments. I will use Dreamcatcher again!
Dreamcatcher Artistry is a must for your wedding! Haley did my hair and makeup as well as my maid of honor's. I was a little nervous since we did my trial before we had to postpone due to the pandemic. But I felt confident enough to proceed with our rescheduled date (1.5 years later) without doing another trial. I actually think it came out better than our trial run! My hair is super slippery, but it magically (well, with the help of MANY bobby pins) held up its updo the entire night, even through two outfit changes. My makeup also looked great all day and into the evening! I definitely recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry and their team for your special day!
I had a great experience with hiring Dreamcatcher artistry for my wedding. They did my hair and make up as well as that for my bridal party. I was looking for a natural look and I was really happy with the outcome as was everyone in my bridal party. Leah was very easy to work with to coordinate all the appointments and even let us add another make up appointment a few days before the wedding for my mother in law. We had Maya and Chrystal as our stylists. Maya did my hair and make up and she really worked with me on making minor changes so that the look felt right to me. I highly recommend doing a preview! That way I knew on the wedding we wouldn’t need to make any major adjustments. Everything was easy, the stylists were always on time and finished on time, the quality was great and the pricing very reasonable. I would highly recommend them!
Cheryl was amazing, and managed to complete my hair and makeup for my wedding on a very tight timeframe. Thanks to Leah for suggesting a hair and makeup preview which helped work through some of the details before the big day.
I had a great experience using Dreamcatcher Artistry for my San Francisco wedding in October. Leah was responsive and easy to work with, and Chelsea and Kirsten did a fabulous job with my friends' hair and makeup. Chelsea did my hair and makeup and was able to execute my painfully vague vision ("fancy ponytail") excellently. We did a trial a few months before and the look the day of was spot on. Thank you, Leah & team!
Dream Catcher Artistry is a must hire for your wedding! We were referred to DCA by our wedding coordinator back in 2019 and so happy for this referral. When I first began my search, it was rather overwhelming as there were so many artists and I was worried of selecting the wrong company/makeup artist. We connected with Leah back in 2019 and she was amazing from day one. Our wedding was originally scheduled for 10/10/2020 and due to the pandemic, we had to push our reception to 2021. We took a break from planning due to the pandemic and we picked it back up in the beginning of 2021 and she didn’t miss a beat. Leah was extremely professional and always available to answer any questions or concerns. Leah really listened and understood what I was looking for and she set me up with Nora for my bridal hair and makeup. Nora was an absolute gem, she made me feel like a million bucks on my wedding. She was attentive and an experienced makeup artist that really understood makeup. She walked me through every step and ensured I was comfortable before proceeding. We ended hiring a total of three makeup artists, everyone was on time and extremely flexible, attentive, and professional. Thank you, Leah, Nora, Stella, and Chrystal, for an amazing day!
I can’t say enough good things about Leah and her team. From the very first inquiry email, Leah was extremely responsive, well organized, and thoughtful. I was so grateful for her flexibility when we needed to postpone the wedding due to Covid, as well as her understanding while we resettled on the East Coast following a cross-country move.
On the day of the wedding, our hair and makeup artists, Norah and Chelsea, were a dream. Despite not being able to do a trial beforehand, Norah absolutely nailed my requests of “1920s Shailene Woodley” and “me but a little bit better.” As a person who doesn’t particularly like being the center of attention, especially in photos, it was such a weight off of my shoulders to know I really did look my best on my wedding day.
Norah and Chelsea were both exceptionally kind and so, so talented. Everyone in my wedding party loved their look. I 1,000% recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry.
I was so happy that i chose Dreamcatcher artistry for my wedding beauty services. Leah was incredibly accommodating throughout the planning experience and was so cooperative through two reschedules. Her team was professional and made all my wedding party and the mother’s glow for the big day. My makeup and hair lasted almost all night despite heavy humidity from the previous night’s rain. Cannot recommend them enough.
Hired them for my wedding! They were incredible. And we blew through the hair and makeup schedule, I had everyone done about an hour early. My mother in law said she loved who I hired. Chelsea is so sweet and she even left me straws to drink through! I loved her.
Ashlee and Stella were fantastic! I didn't get to interact too much with Stella but she was flexible with some last-minute change, easy to communicate with, everybody loved their hair and make-up.
I do want to rave about Ashlee! I rarely do my hair or makeup so I usually feel very uncomfortable when I wear it and I also typically don't feel like I look like myself. It was the complete opposite with Ashlee's work. I felt completely comfortable in the hair and makeup all night and I felt like an elevated version of myself instead of a complete stranger. I simply can't thank Ashlee enough for how she made me feel on the wedding day.
The Dreamcatcher team was amazing! Working with Leah is a dream and my stylist Chelsea made my hair look absolutely perfect on my wedding day! I first reached out to Leah in early 2020 to inquire about hair services for my September 2020 wedding. From the start, Leah was incredibly responsive and made herself available to answer my questions. After my first trial, I wasn’t thrilled with the style and Leah was so accommodating and helped pair me with another artist. A week after my first trial, lockdown started and we ended up postponing our wedding to September 2021. Leah was so flexible through the postponing process and thankfully available for our new day.
When we picked up planning again, Leah jumped right back in and helped pair me with hairstylist Chelsea who is AMAZING! I cannot say enough good things about Chelsea. From the moment she arrived for my trial, it was like working with a friend. She carefully reviewed my inspo photos and analyzed the curl patterns in the photos to help me decide whether I wanted curls versus waives, which showed me how experienced and attentive she is and helped me decide which style would work best for me and my dress. Chelsea absolutely nailed it and I thought my hair looked even better than the inspo photos!
On my wedding day, my hair looked incredible and stayed perfectly in place all night. Chelsea also did amazing hairstyles on my mother in law, maid of honor, and my best friend who was officiating and made them all look gorgeous.
I am so grateful for Chelsea and Leah for being such a wonderful part of my wedding day and planning experience and for making me feel so beautiful on my big day. I cannot recommend them enough!!
Worked with Maya at Dreamcatcher for my small backyard wedding during Covid and loved her so much I hired her to travel up to Sonoma for my larger celebration several months later! She did an excellent job on hair and makeup, was so extremely kind and fun to work with, and she really cared to ensure that I was happy with the look. Leah is also great and easy to work with in terms of scheduling and everything beforehand. Thanks, Dreamcatcher!
Dreamcatcher artistry made my wedding day so smooth. I was so worried about getting my hair and makeup done that I wouldn't like it but their team did exactly what I was looking for and even better! They are so nice, professional and want to make sure everyone feels good about the work. The hair and makeup were beautiful. Thank you!
I wholeheartedly recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry for hair & makeup services. From the get-go, Leah was very helpful in answering my questions and explaining the booking and trail process to me. I've had hair & makeup as a bridesmaid, but it's a very different experience as the Bride, and I appreciated Leah taking the time to speak with me over the phone about what to expect and how to best prepare for my trial and day-of. She is also an excellent communicator and scheduler, showed up on time, and is professional. Wedding day prep with Leah and Maya was super relaxing and fun -- they stayed on top of the schedule and everyone had enough time for touchups with plenty of time for getting ready before pictures. I love that we didn't have to rush or stress. And Leah and Maya are amazing artists -- all my ladies looked fabulous -- and they asked for videos of their hair and what makeup products/colors they used so they can buy them for future looks. I LOVED my look so much -- and my hair and makeup kept up the whole day/night, and it was easy to clean/no skin problems afterward. What a confidence boost! I can go on and on about how happy we all were with Leah and Maya :)
Dreamcatcher artistry did a beautiful job helping my bridesmaids and I to get ready on my wedding day. They were on time, professional and very accommodating when things inevitably didn't go precisely according to plan. They were very flexible and understanding throughout the uncertainty of the pandemic and I would 100% recommend them to a friend. Thank you Dreamcatcher Artistry for providing fabulous services and helping me to look and feel beautiful on my wedding day!
We loved working with Leah, she is very good at communicating and was very easy to work with. She was very understanding when we had to postpone our wedding, and the artist we had (Sye) is extremely talented and professional, in both hair and makeup, being able to understand everyone’s requests or helping them make decisions when they were indecisive. I highly recommend this vendor.
Leah and her team are amazing! Leah was my main contact throughout the entire process. She was kind, professional, transparent, and had great communication. Her responses were always prompt and she was more than happy to answer all my questions. Due to COVID-19, I had to postpone my wedding and the wedding hair and make up preview. Leah was very understanding and made the process seamless. Their artists also followed strict COVID-19 protocols which made me feel comfortable and safe during the preview and on my wedding day.
Maya was my hair and make up artist for the preview. She was great! Very nice, down to earth, and easy to talk to. I showed her my inspiration pics and she was able to execute it beautifully and efficiently. Dreamcatcher Artistry was the first and only preview I booked. I knew after the preview that Maya was the artist that I wanted for my wedding day.
I absolutely loved my wedding hair and make up and I cannot thank Maya enough!! I was amazed with her work and appreciated her great customer service despite the early start and already doing three services prior to mine. She was patient as we made small adjustments to get the exact look I wanted. She also went above and beyond her services (e.g. helped some of my bridesmaids with hair extensions, letting them use her tools as needed). Maya, Nora, and Chrystal also did hair and make up for my mom, mother-in-law, and my seven bridesmaids. Everyone looked amazing and had a great time during their services!
Dreamcatcher Artistry was recommended by my wedding coordinator, Diana Dorsey (Simply Elegant by Diana). I cannot stress enough how valuable vendor recommendations are. Vendors that know each other are like having friends working together in your wedding team. :) Thank you Dreamcatcher Artistry!!!
Absolutely amazing!! Leah was so professional, responsive and flexible from the beginning. Due to COVID, we had last minute changes to our wedding time and Leah made sure to accommodate our schedule. My make up artist was so incredibly talented. I cannot say enough good things about her. On my wedding day, she was punctual, professional, and an absolute joy to work with. I typically wear very little make up and wanted to feel like myself on that day. She worked diligently and was extremely organized. She was also so fun to be around—the morning with her flew by. Because I eloped, I never had a trial run and I was stunned at how she able to pull together exactly what I had envisioned (actually better than anything I could have ever envisioned) with so little guidance and no trial run. I wish I could have that look everyday. It felt like me with just the right amount of glam. I would highly recommend Dreamcatcher Artistry!!!
Dreamcatcher Artistry was my hair and make-up artist for my wedding in July 2021. Overall, I'd highly recommend them for your wedding! Leah was VERY responsive via email from one year before the wedding up until the big day, which was so helpful and reassuring as I was planning and preparing for my wedding.
My bridesmaids and myself all got our hair and makeup done, and my mom and MIL for their makeup only. Almost all of us rarely wear make-up and our artists (Ashlee and Kalani) did a great job giving us very natural but still beautiful makeup. They also were very good at mimicking whatever hairstyle each of us wanted.
Additionally, Dreamcatcher has the option for "eyes only" and "face only" makeup, which other vendors did not have. This was really convenient for one of my bridesmaids who has very sensitive skin and so took care of her own foundation, and another bridesmaid who was very particular about doing her own eye make-up. I loved everything about having Dreamcatcher make me and my bridal party look gorgeous for my wedding! :)
Leah was amazing to work with! She answered all emails promptly and when planning a wedding dealing with all different vendors this was so helpful! They do beautiful work with hair and makeup!!
Response from the Vendor on 08/02/2021
Nicole it was such a pleasure working with you, so happy you finally got to celebrate!
We loved working with Dreamcatcher Artistry and would highly recommend for anyone looking to get Hair & MU done for their wedding. The stylists were always punctual, professional and super fun! They answered all of our questions with ease and made the morning of my wedding so special. We had to postpone our original date because of Covid and Leah helped us to make it a seamless process.
It was absolute pleasure to work with Leah, Maya, and Katie for our wedding! We had to reschedule multiple times due to covid and we even had to switch venues, but Dreamcatcher was flexible and understanding through all of it. Leah, Maya, and Katie were professional, thoughtful, and talented. They really listened to me and the bridal party and did an amazing job of matching the make-up and hair to our outfits. My bridal party and I all loved how we looked and felt confident going into the wedding day. Thank you so much, Dreamcatcher!! I cannot recommend this vendor highly enough - they were a dream.
Dreamcatcher Artistry is INCREDIBLE!! They did the hair and make up for myself (the bride), bridesmaids and mother of the bride and every one of us were so happy with how it turned out! Our artists were fun, professional, calm and on time making sure the morning went smoothly! Selecting hair and make up artists for your wedding can be overwhelming, but I can’t recommend Dreamcatcher enough!
Ahhh dreamcatcher - the best!! I spent countless hours scrolling through Instagram and various websites looking for the perfect hair and make up artist for my wedding day. I came across Maya and fell in love so I reached out to Dreamcatcher and couldn’t be happier with that decision. Leah is BY FAR the best at communicating - something that is hard to come by these days. Over the course of 3 years (thank you COVID) and countless date changes/upheavals, Leah never failed to impress me and was always beyond accommodating. Everything went great with my rehearsal dinner and wedding day hair/makeup and the bridal party was super happy with their looks as well. Cant speak highly enough of Dreamcatcher!
Leah and her team were great to work with. They arrived on time and everything went like clockwork. I really loved the lashes they used - it's not the long strip that falls off during every wedding I've ever been in. I didn't do a test run because as I explained to Leah I think it creates anxiety to try and achieve a certain look. I showed her ideas that I was inspired by and let her work her magic. They knew what they were doing so I trusted them. All went well and I couldn't have asked for better hair and make-up team.
