LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. her work and her!
I have to admit...I was going to do my makeup myself for my wedding day because I don't wear much regularly(I'm more of a clean up my brows swipe on mascara kind of girl) but also because I didn't want to lo...
ok like anyone but myself and was so nervous to look bad! I mean, come on, it's the day where you want to be most beautiful marrying the love of your life! So, I did my research and asked around - but didn't really feel right with anyone. Well, I found Cherise by accident and THANK GOD I did. I actually stumbled across photos of HER on HER wedding day. I thought she was flawless - from her style to her hair to her makeup. So, obviously with a little digging on social media(ha us girls are so crazy) I quickly learned she did makeup AND she did it for a old friend of mine. What a small world - and I love that because then you can get a real inside scoop. So, I reached out to see what she thought of Cherise's work and she gave Cherise glowing reviews.
From the second I spoke to Cherise, it was like speaking to a best girlfriend. She is SO sweet and so very talented. I loved her products she used, her approach to get to know me, my style(day to day and what I do when I get dressed up), and my skin type. She asks the right questions and is so open to hearing what you like/don't like. She gives great skincare and makeup tips too! She has great vibes and I trusted her. Well, She delivered and that is WITHOUT a trial. I have never felt more beautiful and doubt I ever will than I did on my wedding day. She has a great eye for makeup and made me look like a va va voom/amped up version of myself. I can't rave enough about her and you should stop looking now - Hire Cherise you won't regret it - she does an incredible job and will take care of you - plus you will want to be her friend for life.
From beginning to end, the experience with Elite Beauty was seamless and enjoyable. The team answered every question and handled every request. My makeup artists were professional and lovely. Will definitely use them again!!!
Words cannot express how incredible Cherise, Xavier and the Elite Beauty team is! I was looking for a company that specializes in natural/glowy bridal makeup but also can do pretty hair styles too and Elite Bridal Beauty is just that!! I am so ...
incredibly lucky that I came across Elite Beauty here on the knot and that I was able to book them for my wedding day. They are truly talented and amazing at what they do. There is no one else like them! Also need to mention they are the coolest and sweetest people you'll ever meet. Cherise and Paige were there for me throughout my wedding planning journey and they answered all of my hundreds of crazy bride questions and put me at ease. They even helped me with skin and hair care recommendations which I appreciated very much. I knew I was in the best hands from the very start. They will also make sure that on the wedding day, you won't feel rushed which is exactly what they did for me and my bridesmaids. We had a blast and definitely set the mood for a perfect day. Cherise and Xavier turned me into the princess i've always wanted to be on my wedding day along with Bobby and Leanna who were also incredible and made my bridesmaids absolutely stunning. I knew Elite is the best of the best when my hair and makeup lasted the entire day and only needed small touch ups. Through all the crying, sweating and dancing, it all stayed very well. But if you need, they are also available to stay with you and do touch ups throughout the day. All I can say is, I'm so blessed that I had Cherise, Xavier, Bobby and Leanna part of my wedding day because it wouldn't have been as perfect as it was without them. Do yourself a favor and book them now! You will be so happy!
The Elite team is perfection! I cannot thank Cherise and Xavier enough for the most amazing glam. They gave me exactly the hair and makeup I could have ever dreamed of for my wedding day! If you want a soft effortless look you must book Elite!
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Cherise and Xavier for my wedding hair and make up and I couldn’t be happier with how my overall look turned out. My makeup looked like a more done up version of myself, which is exactly what I wanted...
, and it lasted from morning to night. Even in the outside humidity, my hair and make up didn’t budge. The team was so fun to work with and my bridal party still talks about how awesome everyone was and how much they all loved their hair and make up. Thank you so much Cherise and team! 💗
Can not say enough good things!!! I hired Xavier for hair and Kerin for makeup and they were the absolute best team!! They did my hair and makeup exactly how I wanted it and made the whole experience so fun! All my bridesmaids and family loved...
their looks as well!! Highly recommend!
100% Hire. Everyone loved their hair and had so much fun chatting with the stylists. We had such a great morning! Can't recommend Elite enough.
I hired Xavier & Cherise for my destination wedding. They were worth every single penny! I knew that I wanted to fly them out for my wedding when I saw their work and had my first trial. I initially met Xavier through a friend and he gave me th...
e best blowout and just worked so much magic on my hair, I knew I wanted him to do my wedding hair. Luckily he worked with the talented beauty Cherise who specializes is enhancing your natural beauty with soft glam. I noticed a lot of other bridal makeup I see is makeup done mainly for photos, just tons of layers but Cherise is an expert and matches you with perfect shades to compliment your features. They both knew exactly what products to bring for the setting of my wedding (hello hot & humid!) my makeup & hair lasted through heat & wind for my outdoor weddings. They styled me for my Hindu wedding & vow ceremony and made it feel like I was getting ready with friends. I truly love both of them! They were a dream to work with and it makes me kind of sad that it’s over! They made me feel my most beautiful not one but two days in a row. They are the epitome of dream team and I hope to work with them again in the future. If you’re looking to feel like something out of a bridal magazine hire these two!!! They are such a pleasure to be around and I would HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND - don’t think just book emmmm!!!
I cannot say enough good things about Elite Bridal Beauty! Cherise was absolutely incredible. So professional and helped make the process a breeze. When I saw her work, I knew she was the perfect choice for my small outdoor wedding, and I was r...
ight! I felt like the best version of myself that day. Leanna did my hair and she was incredible as well. Super friendly and willing to try a few versions of my style during the trial. My hair looked looked so shiny and had just the right amount of wave. I would highly recommend Elite Bridal Beauty to anyone seeking a timeless, natural look!
Lucky enough to have had Kerin do my makeup for my wedding and a second time for my sister in laws! She was dependable and brought the best warm energy. She is incredibly talented, obviously loves what she does, and made myself and the girls fe...
el our best!
The whole team was absolutely incredible and made me and my bridesmaids feel so comfortable and beautiful! The team was prompt and super friendly, could not recommend more!
Love the whole team! I was nervous about hair & make up for my wedding since I had little experience with professional glam and wanted to look like myself. My friend recommended Elite Bridal Beauty and I met with Sarah and Xavier. I was blown ...
away with how patient and understanding they were. They were so talented, had clean high end products, and what seemed like the ability to read my mind. I coordinated through Cherise who was out on maternity leave at the time and she was the sweetest person and responded timely. She even made a surprise appearance at the wedding! Sarah and Cherise provided natural beautiful looks for me, my bridal party, and two moms also nervous about professional glam. They were so understanding and super fun to work with. Xavier created a beautiful intricate up-do for me and even included a hair piece I brought last minute. The team was so prepared the whole morning seemed effortless. Cannot recommend this team enough, they will put you at ease.
Looking back on my wedding day, beauty prep in the morning with the women closest to me was one of my favorite parts. We put on classic wedding movies, had plenty of champagne and good snacks, and great chatter as each member of my party got gl...
am-ified by the Elite team. Kerin and Leanna arrived on time and ensured we kept on schedule - they were consummate professionals. They took time to understand each woman's unique beauty requests, and ensured that we were all comfortable, confident and feeling beautiful before leaving their chairs. They participated in our banter and enhanced the happy mood of the day. Personally, my makeup felt classic, fresh and natural, and my hair was the perfect balance of clean and swept off my face but still romantic. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to the Elite team. I highly recommend working with Kerin and Leanna - they were amazing to partner with and made me feel so confident.
When I got engaged, the first vendor I called was Cherise and Elite Bridal Beauty. When we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID, again she was the first vendor that I confirmed the date with. My wife thought I was insane until our wedding d...
ay when Cherise and her team showed up. They were incredible to work with, so sweet and supportive through the entire process, and made the wedding day run so incredibly smooth (even with 2 picky brides, 7 bridesmaids, 2 jr. bridesmaids, and 2 mothers of the bride)!! Cherise and her team are masters of the natural, glam, glowy look that is so hard to find, especially on Long Island. We would have them for our wedding every time if we could do it over!! Not to mention, that we just wanted them to stay and hang out!!! Cannot thank Cherise and Elite Bridal enough for our amazing wedding day beauty!!!
Cherise & Xavier are the absolute BEST. I decided to work with them for both my rehearsal dinner and wedding day – they were truly a dream! Cherise did such an amazing job on my make up it was absolutely perfect – natural, glowy, and radiant. I...
still cant get over my hair! Xavier was just the best and created the perfect curl. My bridal party loved the rest of the Elite Bridal Beauty team and they looked beautiful! Cherise and Xavier are the kindest/sweetest/friendliest and it was a pleasure to have them by my side for my wedding weekend. Touch ups are a must! I highly recommend Elite Bridal Beauty to all brides!
Book Cherise and her team for your wedding! I can't thank Cherise, Sarah and Xavier enough for making myself and my bridal party feel like ourselves at our most beautiful. We had such a fun morning getting ready, and the positive and happy ener...
gy from the Elite team was infectious! I also felt like Cherise really listened to what I wanted for my makeup, and executed flawlessly- I also couldn't believe how natural and beautiful the lashes they used on us looked! We had an incredible experience, and I can't wait to book the team again for all of my makeup and hair needs in the future!
Elite Bridal Beauty was AMAZING!!! It was most important for me to feel like myself but be elevated and feel beautiful, and they did just that. The trial was also a HUGE help to avoid the stress! I was able to meet the glam team (Brianna for ma...
keup, Leanna for hair) ahead of time and get to know them, as well as take the time to get my look just right. The team was so patient and kind and worked through every step of the process with me to make sure it was perfect. I was also happy to have the products tested on my skin to make sure I wouldn't have a reaction on the wedding day. Once the wedding day came I was able to just relax and know that they would get it just right. I also had beautiful flowers put in my hair that we worked through one by one and it turned out perfectly. Everything also stayed in place for the entire night which was a miracle!
Cherise and her team (shoutout to Xavier) were amazing. Not only were they professional, efficient, super talented, but also a blast to be around which was really important to me. They specialize in effortlessly glam - i told them i wanted to l...
ook like me, but enhanced, and that is 110% their vibe. Can’t recommend them enough.
Elite Bridal Beauty is AMAZING! Organized, easy to work with, responsive, and really made me feel amazing on my wedding day. Everyone looked amazing and felt their best. They have mastered the natural, but glam look and I am beyond grateful ...
to have found such an amazing team. Thank you Elite!!!
Elite bridal beauty is incredible! Cherise and her team are so nice, friendly, talented and easy to work with. Everyone looked and felt their best. I cannot recommend elite bridal beauty enough! So so good!
Absolutely loved working with Cherise, Xavier and their team - they are so talented, easy to work with and sweet. They perfected the natural glam and everyone looked stunning :)
I booked Elite Bridal Beauty, and was impressed by how communicative and helpful Cherise is! She set me up with two great Hair and Makeup artists - Kerin & Jesie, and made everything easy!
WOW! The most professional hair and makeup team I have ever worked with! And fun! We worked with Chloe, Leanna, Jessica and Cherise!
Chloe did my makeup and Leanna did my hair for both the trial and big day and they exceeded my expectations. T...
hey were so great at my trial coming to the hotel we were going to get ready at. They were fun and bubbly, so personable and easy to work with. The both worked with me during the trial to get the exact look I wanted and I felt great knowing they would be working with me again.
The end results on my wedding day were SPECTACULAR! They looked even better than the trial and Leanna got my hair looking exactly the way I wanted, and Chloe applied my lipstick in a way that lasted all day. I even brought some pressed powder to do touch ups throughout the day, and I never needed it. Just some PH Lip Balm to keep my fresh and that was it!
Cherise and Jessica were fabulous to all my bridesmaids. Cherise did a beautiful job on my sister's makeup, she got a perfect smokey eye fo her! Jessica is a hoot and a half and she really kept our group lively! She did a beautiful job with my mom's extremely curly hair!
This was the most fun group to work with, and they really kicked off our day in the best way. The conversation was flowing, they were complimentary to my mom, my sister, bridesmaids and all of my husband's family who were in/attending the wedding. Everyone was so attentive and took so much time with each person. We had a large group of about 9 or 10 women with an 6am start time, and they had us ready just in time!
My anxiety kicked in right when everyone was wrapping up I had to run and get dressed (Jessica even helped me get my top on with my hair, thank goodness for her!) and do my first look with my new husband and did not get enough time to genuinely say thank you to each and every woman who helped us out, but I hope they know they helped us make our wedding day perfect.
I felt like we gained 4 friends! Total bliss working with Elite Bridal Beauty! You will not be disappointed!
Cherise and Xavier are the best!! It was such a pleasure working with them and their team on my wedding day. I was the most nervous about my hair and makeup because I typically don't do much, but they have perfected the soft glam no makeup-make...
up look and the soft loose curls! I felt so pretty and am so happy I went with Elite Bridal Beauty! Sarah who did my spray tan (who works in connection with Elite Bridal Beauty, I believe) is awesome as well!!
Amazing service! These girls are awesome and really know what they are doing. Kirstie nailed my glowy look and is a pro with lash extensions. Leanna did an amazing curled look for me with extensions and a few pieces twisted and pinned up with a...
hair piece too. They are kind and fun to be around. Seamlessly fitting into our group and enhance the vibe while we were getting ready. We really clicked, they listened to all my wants at the trial and were fantastic! Thank you again!!
If you haven’t scheduled your hair and makeup team look no further - Elite Bridal Beauty is the place to go. I actually booked Elite Bridal Beauty prior to doing a trial because I loved the look I saw on the Instagram and heard a positive recom...
mendation from a family member. Let me tell you this team exceeded my expectations. Cherise (the founder) is a savant with makeup. She coaxes the natural beauty out of each subject to reveal an enhanced, natural and radiant version of yourself. She is also brilliant with adding the single lashes, they look real! The makeup also lasted from 11 in the morning through my after party. Xavier did my hair and it was also perfect. My hair was so shiny and my curls old Hollywood glam. Paige (makeup) and Leanna (hair) were also part of our team and all of my bridesmaids looked stunning and could not compliment the team enough. A side note - I think it’s rare that everyone is happy with both hair and makeup when so many are getting it done, which I feel is really a testament to this team. If your date is available DO NOT HESITATE and book now :)
Cherise and Xavier were absolutely wonderful. They were calm, kind and set the tone for the rest of the day. I absolutely loved my hair and makeup and so did my mom, sister and bridal party. After everyone was completed, they went back and chec...
ked in to make sure everyone liked their hair and makeup as well as did touch ups. I have never seen any other hair and makeup artists do this. I thought this was fantastic and reassured me that my friends and family were happy with their looks. My hair and makeup looked fabulous all day in hot and humid conditions. I cannot thank them enough for the work and for making my day so special. They are hundred and ten percent worth it and I will definitely book them again for other events I have!
If you are getting married on Long Island, do not hesitate - book with Cherise and Xavier right away. They were absolutely INCREDIBLE. My bridesmaids and I could not have been any happier with our hair and makeup. My look was exactly what I ...
envisioned - natural, glowy and pretty. I felt like myself, which is exactly what I wanted. Cherise and Xavier are beyond talented and so professional (and fun!) to work with. I honestly don't have enough great things to say!
Cherise, Paige and Leanna made my wedding so incredibly special! My hair and make up totally exceeded my expectations and I couldn’t be happier with everything. Cherise was also so great to work with leading up to the wedding. - Paige & Leanna...
are incredibly talented and brought such good vibes to the entire getting ready portion of the day - they are so kind and have the calming energy you will want to be around morning of! My family and small bridal party all looked gorgeous and we’re thrilled with how they looked. It made my so happy knowing everyone felt so beautiful and we’re able to enjoy the day feeling their best. Would absolutely recommend!!
I have always done my own hair and makeup for events and weddings. When it came to planning my own wedding this July I was so afraid I wouldn't find a hair and makeup team that could execute my vision so I thought I should just do it myself. ...
Until I booked a trial with Cherise (makeup) and Xavier (hair). I was absolutely blown away by them. When it came to my rehearsal dinner and wedding they were incredible. I did not stress AT ALL. What could have easily been one of the most stressful parts of wedding planning for me (hair & makeup) was THE BEST. I was able to relax and just ENJOY the entire weekend. My mom, MIL and bridesmaids were also impressed by the Elite Bridal Beauty team. Hiring them was worth every penny and I was so happy that they were there for touch ups. Our pictures are starting to come back and I am speechless. I had a vision for what I hoped I would look like as a bride. They NAILED it and then some. I will forever be grateful for Cherise and Xavier for being a part of my wedding weekend and making it so special for me, my friends, and my family.
I absolutely loved Cherise and Xavier! They are an extremely talented duo. I felt at such ease meeting them at the trial. They both NAILED the look I was going for! On my wedding day, my makeup stayed on all night and was so beautiful. My hair ...
was gorgeous! I received so many compliments and felt beautiful on my wedding day. My groom (Peter), had the best reaction down the aisle. It is a memory I will never forget. It is rare to find a beauty team that enhances your natural beauty without completely transforming the way you look. It was so important to me to look like myself (the woman my groom fell in love with), but glammed up! You both are so talented and kind! I cannot thank you both enough! I absolutely LOVE you both.
Look no further. You could not be in better hands than Elite Bridal Beauty. They are not only the BEST at what they do, but they go above and beyond. Cherise had a medical emergency and was hospitalized a few days before my wedding, and even th...
ough my wedding should have literally been the last thing on her mind, she had me covered. She reorganized the makeup and hair team (from the hospital!) and sent me an email apologizing (absolutely no need for that!) and explaining how she had reorganized the team slightly to make sure my bridal party and I were all covered. Cherise -- who had, of course, done a phenomenal job on my makeup trial -- filled Sarah in on exactly what I was looking for from my wedding day makeup and Sarah, like Cherise, is clearly a magician because it was perfect. Sam did such a beautiful job with my wedding hair; she made it look natural (but movie natural, with perfect waves), and it lasted through a little rain and lots of sweaty dancing late into the night. The rest of the team, Gabbi and Alyssa, made my mom, mother-in-law, and bridesmaids feel and look beautiful. If I could give the team 100 out of 5, I would.
P.S. I have been meaning to write this review for almost 3 years – my wedding was in June 2018 in Southampton, NY – and while the delay is entirely on me, the fact that I have been thinking about this for so long is a testament to how incredible the team is, and how gob-smacked I still am by Cherise’s dedication to her brides. This is the first review I’ve ever written on the internet, by the way 😊
Cherise and Xavier were the most amazing beauty team and I could not have made a better decision for my wedding day! I knew from the second I saw their work on Instagram and heard the phrase "soft glam" that it was exactly what I was looking fo...
r, and they exceeded expectations. I don't usually wear that much makeup and Cherise was amazing at capturing the natural yet elevated look I was going for. And Xavier nailed the hairstyle even when I couldn't fully capture it myself in words - a true miracle worker! Cherise was also very responsive and a true professional. They were both incredibly kind and easy to work with, from the first time I reached out to the trial to the morning of our wedding. And even though we sized down to a small, intimate event with just our immediate family, they helped make everything feel so special. They truly went above and beyond for myself, my mom and my sister, and everyone remarked how beautiful all of our hair and makeup looked throughout the day and even at the very end of the night. At one point my husband and I went out to the beach next to our venue to take portraits in about 20 degree weather with huge wind gusts, and thanks to Cherise and Xavier everything still looked beautiful. I still feel so lucky that they were able to make it work for us on a holiday weekend with short notice, and I could not imagine my wedding day without them. Highly, highly recommend!!
As a makeup artist myself, I was VERY particular in who I was looking for on my special day as the bride. After a few too many trials, I had convinced myself that the only person I could trust to make myself up just right was me. Then I came ac...
ross Cherise. I went for a trial and fell in love with Cherise as an artist, a person and her impeccable talent - I left counting down the days until I could sit in her makeup chair!
I can say with 100% certainty you can trust Cherise to make you up to be the very best version of yourself for any special occasion. Cherise is professional, kind and caring, TALENTED (cannot stress her talent enough) trustworthy and just the energy and presence you need leading up to any special event!
I am a forever fan!
There is NO ONE else I would trust with my hair and makeup for an important day, other than Cherise and team. Before meeting Cherise, I almost didn't want my makeup done for my wedding, because I always felt that professional make up artists di...
d not listen, or made me look not like myself. And then I met Cherise, and now I wish she could do my makeup every day! :) Cherise is patient, kind, caring and so thoughtful when it comes to making you look and feel your best for a special occasion.
Beyond all of her amazing qualities, Cherise stuck by me through the planning, postponing, re-planning, and re-postponing of Covid wedding craziness! She fit me into her already busy schedule to ensure I had makeup and hair covered for my mini-mony that came together very quickly this summer, AND she has ensured she will be there for the big celebration we hope to throw next year.
If you are looking for a makeup artist who just gets it, truly look no further (but hurry up and book because she is popular!!!)
I wanted an elevated version of myself, natural beautiful makeup And hair for my wedding. After hours of research I found elite bridal beauty who matched me with Kerin For makeup and Gabbi for hair. I actually had no idea what I wanted to do wi...
th my hair and had two trials, on the day of my wedding Gabbi read my vibe and helped me decide on a completely different style than planned, she’s absolutely fabulous And talented. Kerin was beyond talented and made me look like myself but a cover girl version. Every email and call was returned ASAP by elite bridal beauty, Cherise helped match me with two stellar, talented, and beautiful ladies. The best compliment I got on my Big day is that I looked stunning and these ladies and elite bridal beauty are the reasons!!!! I will definitely use them again
I got my hair from by Jesi and she was absolutely amazing!! I loved her style and she was willing to work with me in any way that I wanted so that I was happy on my special day. Not only that, but Cherise did a great job communicating with me a...

Cherise is by far the best makeup artist out there! I am a very very simple makeup kind of person - I like everything to look as natural as possible - so when I saw Cherise's Instagram and how her work is simple and natural I had to book her. A...
midst all of the covid problems with my wedding, Cherise made me feel at ease. She came to my mothers house to do my trial and perfectly recreated the same look the day of my wedding. I couldn't have been happier with the way my makeup turned out and how it made me feel so pretty. She works with Xavier and I needed a hair person so I booked him as well. Xavier came with Cherise to my mothers house for my hair trial and perfectly created the look I was going for and then perfectly recreated that same look the day of my wedding. I was so happy to be able to work with both of them because they are a great team and the morning flowed beautifully with me and all my bridesmaids and my mom. They both were fantastic and 10/10 would recommend them to anyone! Thank you Cherise and Xavier for making me feel and look the best on the most important day of my life!
I was the most nervous to hire a hair stylist and makeup artist for my wedding but was absolutely THRILLED by the talented duo, Cherise and Xavier. In fact after my trial, I booked them for my rehearsal dinner and engagement session looks! They...

Cherise, thanks so much for the online via Zoom beauty consult. My eyes and skin look and feel so much better after practicing your daily tips routine.
Cherise and Xavier are THE BEST! They did my hair and makeup as well as for my bridesmaids and family. Beyond their exceptional talent they are so sweet and so kind and were amazing throughout my wedding day. I couldn't decide how to have my ha...

I had such an amazing experience with Elite Bridal beauty! Eva did both me and my moms hair/makeup and drove all the way out to the Hampton's to do it. 10/10 would recommend!!
I had an amazing experience with Cherise and her team at Elite Bridal Beauty. Aside from her reliability and professionalism, Cherise truly valued what I wanted as a bride. She worked with me to create a look that felt like "me," and made every...

I used Elite Bridal Beauty for hair and makeup for my bridal party, mother and me. Everyone- ages 2 to 68- looked amazing yet so natural. The artists were professional and kind. Thank you so much!
Xavier did my and my daughter’s hair (flower girl) on my wedding day Nov 2nd, and I could not have been happier. Everyone complimented how stunningly beautiful our hair looked, and the pictures are proof. Phenomenal job by Xavier- he was profes...
sional, timely, so courteous and kind- best of all he got the desired looks down 100%. Definitely book with Elite- you don’t be disappointed.
I highly recommend Elite Bridal Beauty! I had 14 people who needed to get their makeup done on the morning of my wedding. Cherise and her team worked extremely hard, stuck to our timeline and did such an amazing job on everyones makeup. Cheris...

Cherise’s team was absolutely perfect. She has an incredible makeup artists team and hairstylists. They are professional and neat and fast.

I absolutely recommend Cherise and her team, they are the best.
Cherise is a wonderful makeup artist! She asked great questions and truly wanted to make me look and feel beautiful. She also carries all the best high end makeup brands which really make all the difference. She is a sweet person and I would h...
ighly recommend her.
Getting ready for my wedding was one of the parts I was looking forward to the most when I was looking forward to my wedding. I know I would have the butterflies, and being surrounded by my Mom and best friends was going to be such a good feeli...
ng. That being said, of course I wanted to find someone who was talented in hair and makeup, but for me their personality and presence in the room and how they made me feel was equally as important, if not more. From the first time I had messaged Cherise and we began to plan what I wanted and setting up my trial I could tell we were going to get along great. She spoke to me like a friend, even through text before we met. Meeting her and Xavier, who did my hair, in person for my trial put me at such ease! I knew they were who I wanted before even looking in the mirror! Chatting to them was as if we knew each other already, my Mom was right there with me and she was made to feel extremely welcome as well even though she was there just to watch!
Cherise and Xavier are a literal DREAM TEAM when it comes to putting you at ease, making the bride feel the most special in the room while still making your entire bridal party look the best they've ever looked! Every one of us was SO happy with how we looked it was the most perfect start to the most perfect day.
Side note: We happened to have a hurricane just in time to leave my hotel and head to my first look and they stayed late to wrap me up and protect this hair and makeup from the storm, one of the flowers in my hair blew off as I was getting in the car and Xavier leaped in the back seat and did some last minute touch ups as I was out the door! <3
Another Side Note: Cherise - CUTEST PREGNANT LADY EVER! The fact that shes worked so hard throughout her pregnancy and devoted herself to her brides really tells something about her work ethic. I will really miss these two!! If guys are reading this - THANK YOU SO MUCH <3
Cherise, Sarah and Xaviar were such an amazing part of my wedding!! All of my friends and family loved working with them and they made getting ready a special and fun start to the day! I would 100% recommend them to any bride.

and Sarah for my makeup and I have never felt more beautiful. Xaviar worked miracles on everyone’s hair.
Cherise and her team were truly a dream to work with! My makeup was one thing I was super nervous about with our wedding because I don’t typically wear a lot of makeup. As soon as I had my trial with Cherise, I knew I was in the best possible h...

We worked with Cherise and Xavier for my sisters wedding. They were both fabulous and understood all of our visions for makeup and hair. Cherise was phenomenal and made my makeup look natural but also enhanced from normal, I loved it! Xavier wa...
s amazing and I had a general idea of what I wanted, but he knew the exact way to make the style come to life and it looked great. They were amazing! Everyone that got hair and makeup done looked beyond beautiful because of their talents.
Cherise has proven herself on countless occasions as a professional makeup artist, to not only celebrity clients of hers, but also to the girl next door who wants that one day to feel celebrity’esk. From the moment you sit down with Cherise, sh...
e exudes a sense of warmth about her that instantly makes you feel at ease, along with the confidence that assures you are in good hands. She has the ability to be fully present with her clients and grasp exactly what you like/do not like. These are the types of qualities you want in a makeup artist, especially during YOUR big day! She makes your vision come to reality. Just like she was able to do for me, my mom and my two grandmas. We all cannot wait to use her again and again and again!!!!!
Working with Cherise and Xavier for my wedding was the greatest experience! They did such an amazing job and were very thoughtful and sweet. My makeup and hair looked stunning!
BEST BEAUTY TEAM!! We've had the pleasure of working with Cherise and her team not only once but twice (first time was our best friends wedding)! Once we got engaged and booked our venue, Elite Bridal Beauty was one of the first vendors we book...
ed! Cherise and her team are incredibly professional, helpful, attentive and so so talented at what they do. Throughout the whole planning process, they got back to us right away with any questions we had, and were so easy to work with. We truly can't say enough good things about them and will definitely be booking for future events we have :) Thank you so much to Cherise and her team for helping our squad to feel so beautiful on our wedding day!!
Working with Cherise and Xavier for my wedding was the best experience! Cherise did my make up and it was better than I could have imagined. I wanted a natural & dewy look and when I saw myself on my wedding day I was in awe! Working with Xavie...
r for my hair was wonderful. He understood the look I was going for and created the perfect beachy-bridal waves. They both did the hair and makeup for my sister and the mothers in the wedding and they all looked absolutely stunning and were so happy with their looks. Cherise and Xavier are both so easy to get along with, extremely talented, and really listen to what you're envisioning. I never doubted or was nervous about what the final result would be. I would choose them again in a heartbeat - no question. Thank you Cherise & Xavier for making my wedding perfect!

Thank you so much, Emily! We had an amazing time working with you. Thank you for being so calm and kind <3 Best wishes to you! xo
Cherise (makeup) and Gabby (hair) glammed up me, my 2 bridesmaids, my mom and my SIL for my wedding this past Friday. I did a trial so I knew I would love what they did but I was blown away at how we didn't even need to adjust one tiny thing, t...
hey NAILED it. My mom was sooo worried about getting her makeup professionally done and they made her look amazing. My bridesmaids and sister in law also all looked so incredible - they all said it was the best hair and makeup they've had for a wedding and trust me, they've all been in A TON of weddings haha. Cherise and Gabby know how to make you look like the best version of yourself but not overdone. I wanted a dewey, fresh, glowy look and Cherise is the BEST for that. Gabby did my beach wave hair perfectly and the cutest updo for my bridesmaid and a super glam Hollywood wave for my sister. One of the best decisions I made in wedding planning!

Thank you so much, Lisa! It was a pleasure working with you and the ladies, such a great group!! Can't wait for all of the photos! XO
I cannot recommend Elite Bridal Beauty enough!!! I had Xavier for hair and Lauren for makeup. I've truly never felt prettier in my life. I like to keep my hair and makeup natural-looking and they did an unbelievable job. Really better than I ev...

Thank you so much Christie! Best wishes to you. :)
Cherise and Sarah are the DREAM TEAM. When I moved to NYC from LA, I was skeptical about who to use in the Hampton's for make-up and a spray tan on my wedding day. Look no further! These girls are top notch. I work with celebrity clients so my ...
expectations were high. These girls nailed it. Their enthusiasm and professionalism saved my June wedding. My bridal party loved them as well and everyone looked beautiful. The spray tan is a must and so natural looking. Highly recommend Elite Bridal Beauty for any occasion where you want to look your best!
Elite Bridal Beauty did hair and makeup for me, my mom and mother in law for my rehearsal dinner. They were AMAZING! Cherise is so great to plan with - she is organized, responds quickly and really listens to what you are looking for. On the da...
y of the event Sarah & Xavier did our makeup and hair. They were so much fun and distracted me from worrying that the weather would not clear up before the event started (it did!). And they were so great at their actual jobs! My makeup was flawless and lasted all night and my hair was absolutely perfect. I didn't do a trial but they had looked at my inspiration photos and knew what I wanted before they got there. I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with! Oh and if you need a spray tan use them also! It was the best, natural spray tan.

So kind & amazing at their craft! Perfected each individuals style, from very natural to a smokey flare - they can do it all!
I have nothing but great things to say about Cherise and her team. I wanted a natural but bridal look for my wedding makeup and she achieved just that. She even worked with me to swap out a few products I was sensitive to to ensure I would feel...
my best on the big day. She's super professional and sweet. Highly recommend her!
I found Elite Bridal Beauty in a total panic because my hair/makeup person for my wedding bailed on me last minute. Elite Bridal Beauty literally saved my entire wedding day. Not only were Cherise and Xavier AMAZINGLY talented, they kept me cal...

Cherise and Xavier did the most amazing job with my wedding hair and makeup! They were both so sweet and professional and you could really tell they cared about making sure I felt perfect on my big day! I’ve done pageants my whole life so I’m e...

Response from the Vendor on 05/10/2019
Thank you so much Jordana! We loved working with you and your crew and staying for the entire day. Xo
I didn't have to touch up my makeup once throughout the entire day/night! I couldn't believe it.
Cherise is incredibly talented at what she does and she is a pleasure to work with. She listens to her clients and knows how to accomplish the lo...
ok you're going for. She is so incredibly sweet and has such a calming effect on you which is amazing on a chaotic wedding morning!
I had a trial with Cherise where I tried airbrush makeup for the first time, and I'm so happy I did. I was so nervous about the airbrush makeup drying me out, but Cherise took all the necessary precautions to avoid that. I stayed in communication with her between my trial and wedding day and sent pictures of how my trial makeup lasted throughout the night so that she could make a few minor tweaks on the actual day of my wedding. And she nailed it! I wasn't oily, I wasn't dry, and my makeup stayed on perfectly the entire day and night, I didn't have to do any touchups other than adding a little more lipstick after dinner.
You will not regret going with Cherise she is simply amazing at what she does!
I cannot recommend Cherise enough. She is kind, patient and generous, not to mention an incredibly talented makeup artist. I do not usually wear makeup, and as a result was a little nervous about the process. But Cherise immediately put me at e...
ase, listening to what I wanted and even coming back to my house a second time to experiment with eyelashes that would give me the most natural look possible. On my wedding day, she gave me, my maid of honor and the entire bridal party glowing, natural makeup that lasted through the ceremony, pictures, dinner and dancing. We looked like ourselves...only better!
Oh my gosh I don't even know where to begin! I booked Cherise for makeup almost a year out from my wedding and I am so glad she had my date available. You'll see from Cherise's portfolio that she's very into the beautiful, natural look, and sh...
e is so amazingly talented!! Some makeup artists do the same eye/lip/face on everyone, but Cherise really treats everyone individually and she does everyone's makeup to bring out their natural beauty. She is truly a perfectionist and that is exactly what I want in someone who is doing my makeup on my wedding day. Though I had a trial, I completely changed my mind about what I wanted the day of my wedding and Cherise was right on board with it and nailed the look perfectly. I can honestly say I have never felt more beautiful and confident in my whole life than I did on my wedding day. Additionally, I'm usually someone who checks their makeup constantly and I had no time to on the day of my wedding, but it was fine because everything stayed perfectly the whole night! I should also mention that Cherise and Alexa both did my bridesmaids' makeup and they all looked beautiful. Even beyond Cherise's talent, she is just a fun person to be around. She has a super impressive resume with experience doing makeup on celebrities and for high fashion magazine shoots, but you would never be able to tell that from talking with her because she is so humble and down to earth. She was a positive, calming presence and it was a joy to have her there on my wedding day.
Cherise and her team were absolutely amazing!! I've never been with a bridal party where every single girl was SO happy with both their hair and makeup. The airbrushing was light and natural and lasted the entire day/night! Cherise and her ...
team were also so sweet and fun to chat with. Recommend 1000000%!!!

dding day. I couldn't be happier with how my makeup came out. Cherise was a dream to work with from day one. I can't recommend her enough. Thank you Cherise!
The best makeup artist in the Hamptons!
Timely, professional, and will help your wedding day go that much more smoother!
You will want her to your makeup for every event in your life!
I decided to choose Cherise for make up based on reviews I had seen online and pictures of her work. I am very picky when it comes to make up since I don’t wear much and prefer a more natural look. I could not have been happier with the way my ...
make up and my family/bridesmaids turned out. It was completely stress free, Cherise was a pleasure to work with and my make up lasted all night! She is truly great at what she does and she listens to EXACTLY what you want! I could not recommend her more.

did such an incredible job—I have never felt more beautiful in my life and I still looked like myself and not heavy and overdone! I got airbrush makeup and it literally lasted all night and stayed flawless. She did makeup for my bridesmaids and mom and they all looked amazing and kept saying how much they loved how they looked all night! The whole wedding morning went by super smoothly and was so much fun. I highly recommend Cherise!
Cherise is the most talented and sweetest make up artist. She did my make up for my wedding, and I was over the moon! She is so easy to get along with, professional, and did exactly what I was hoping for. I wanted a natural and "glowy" look for...
my wedding, and I am so happy how it turned out. She also did my sister and mom's make up, along with my bridesmaids who also all loved their make up.
I have always struggled with my skin, and I wanted it to look perfect for my wedding. Leading up to my wedding, Cherise took the time to respond to emails I had sent asking about skin preparation and suggestions. She sent me product ideas for exfoliating and moisturizing and was always there if I needed help. Cherise also took the time to drive back to my wedding to do touch ups and make sure I was happy---she really cares about her clients. If I had to do it all again, I wouldn't choose anybody else! Thank you Cherise for making my wedding perfect.
I am someone who does not know a lot about makeup and doesn't really wear makeup that often and when I do its very minimal, therefore, I was extremely hesitant to get my makeup done for my wedding. Enter Cherise..she was amazing! She completely...
rid me of any hesitation or fear of being "too done up". She was patient with me, as I changed my mind countless times, even last minute on the wedding day. The final product was flawless and lasted all day and way into the night. I honestly couldn't imagine getting ready on my wedding day with anyone else. She truly is the best!!
Cherise Loren Beauty was the perfect choice for my wedding day makeup! She was very professional thoughout the whole planning process. Her tips and tricks were so helpful in creating a look that I was comfortable with....and a look that I LOVED...
! I am so thankful for her talent and expertise!! Xoxo
Cherise is flawless. She excels in natural makeup, but her greatest skill is listening to what the bride wants! She works hard during makeup trials to ensure you get exactly what you want, and then she delivers.
Cherise did an amazing job on my makeup. My normal make up girl was unavailable and Cherise was able to take care of me without much notice. Lucky for me because she is definitely my new go-to. She was able to give me a solid foundation (to cov...
er up my super unwanted freckles) without looking too thick or cakey. She has so many different styles and does each one so well. She is incredibly talented and professional all while making you feel comfortable and at ease. I have never been truly satisfied with my makeup until the wonder of Cherise! Highly recommend!
A friend of mine from college recommended Cherise when I was looking for a makeup artist for my wedding. I booked her for my wedding solely based on my friends word and looking at Cherise’s work on social media. Since she lives close by, she ma...
de a house call for my bridal makeup trial. She was so flexible with timing since I have a busy work schedule. My trial came out awesome! She is so friendly and so down to earth, just a really great person - which is obviously a plus since she’s an amazing makeup artist! The morning of my wedding was stress free thanks to the help of Cherise and her partner Sarah (who also did a phenomenal job). My wedding day makeup was FLAWLESS! I’m not one who normally wears makeup and I couldn’t even tell I had any on. But best of all, I still felt like ME! Ladies - stop what you’re doing, scroll up and schedule an appointment with her now! I’m telling you, you won’t regret it! Thank you, Cherise!

olutely flawless. The best part was that I didn't feel like I had pounds of makeup on my face. She made me look and feel stunning. Her products are high quality and lasted from 5am to midnight without one touch up. She is extremely gentle, friendly, personable and professional. Her passion pours out of her into her work. You won't find a better makeup artist than Cherise Loren! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Looking back, Cherise doing my makeup was paramount to me being able to feel like the best version of myself on my wedding day.
With little instruction, she naturally and easily understood exactly what I was looking for, and made me look and f...
eel effortlessly beautiful for our entire event.
With so many factors playing into the big day, even I was surprised by how much of an impact having my makeup ALL SET had on my being able to feel calm, present, and in the moment.
Her compassionate nature, combined with her true expertise, makes her the exact type of energy you want to have so closely around you, and in charge of such an important component of your wedding day.
I've recommended her to all of my friends, & give her the highest recommendation for anyone needing makeup on their big day. Thank you Cherise!!
It was such a pleasure working with Cherise on my wedding day. She did my bridal make up, all of my bridesmaids and my mothers makeup. Every single one of my bridesmaids loved how it turned out! Cherise and Sarah did an amazing job and when I...
