Aubrie and Christina did an incredible job with my bridal hair and makeup, and for the bridesmaids who chose their services. They fully understood what I wanted and implemented any...
notes I had seamlessly. I wanted to ensure my makeup didn’t look caked and I still looked like “me,” and Aubrie gave me the perfect balance of bridal, light, and dewy! Christina helped make my elegant pony possible, better than I could’ve imagined it! She was always willing to make adjustment after I noticed a couple changes I wanted to make on the day. The only change I would’ve made is a tighter pony as it had to be re-secured a couple of times.
They both were such a wonderful presence to have on the wedding day, making me feel special, beautiful, and heard. I will scream their names from the mountain tops!

hair and makeup was exactly how I wanted it! They made my day very easy, Aubrie was amazing and made my hair and makeup timeline. All of my girls and I LOVED our hair and makeup and they both lasted all day! Not only was our hair and makeup flawless but they were both very personable. They did great with my flower girls hair and makeup as well! I highly recommend Elegant On Arrival and would 100% use them again!

I found Elegance on Arrival through The Knot at a time that I was struggling to trust vendors. Aubrie responded to me almost immediately, & was phenomenal. She was so understanding...
& helped communicate through timelines!
We weren't able to do a trial for my make up due to me living in a different state and having a somewhat destination wedding, but she was AMAZING. We also had Ashlynn, who was just as good! All of my bridesmaids said how beautiful their make up was & how long it stayed!! I cried the entire day & my make up DID NOT MOVE ONCE. They were so professional & did great timeline wise with the number of people we had!
BOOK THEM & DON'T THINK TWICE. Their prices were beyond fair & so worth it.
Thank you so much for everything!!

re bringing the vision to life at my trial.
On my wedding day, they arrived early to set up and worked seamlessly through the schedule, even including extra time for touch ups! My bridesmaids absolutely LOVED their hair and makeup and how long lasting it was throughout the warm June day.
Most importantly, they left me at ease the morning of the big day. I trusted them completely and they beyond delivered. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Elegant on Arrival for your bridal look! You will not regret it!

Christina and Caleigh were so wonderful to work with for my bridal party hair and makeup services! We did a trial run the month before my wedding and they were both so patient, ask...
ing for my thoughts throughout the process and adjusting based on feedback. They came to our venue bright and early on wedding day to complete 8 hair and makeup services. They took inspo pics from each of my girls and brought them to life! My mom has never worn makeup and Caleigh added the most delicate of touches to address her concerns without making her feel over the top. I am so picky when it comes to these professional services but both my hair and makeup were absolutely perfect. I would absolutely recommend booking with EoA.. Aubrie is going to orchestrate everything flawlessly behind the scenes and your artists are going to transform your bridal party into the most gorgeous versions of themselves. Don't hesitate!!!

how good my looked, but how well it stayed on all night long with the rain and humidity.

Aubrey and Christina were absolutely wonderful for me and my bridesmaids. I did a bridal hair and makeup trial as well as hair and makeup on the day. A few bridesmaids got their ha...
ir and/or makeup done.
We were looking for someone who could do a more natural look as me and my girls are not everyday makeup-wearers so we wanted someone who could make us comfortable in wedding makeup. At the bridal trial, we did a bit of a heavy bridal makeup look so that we could see what I liked and didn't like, and Aubrey was able to perfectly change my look based on feedback from the trial. I could not have been more happy with my makeup or hair on the day of! She was able to do a unique look for each of the girls that was in tune with their own features and style.
Both women were very fun and peppy, making getting ready such a great experience. They both had wonderful attitudes and really listened to what we wanted. I would definitely recommend them!
