Super easy to work with and my hair and makeup came out great. Was so happy day of and even happier when I got the pictures back. Would definitely recommend.
I’m so happy I found From this day Forward Tressa and Ali were nothing but amazing to work with. Tressa helped me pick the perfect half up half down hairstyle that lasted all day and night threw all the photos and dancing the night away. Ali did my makeup and it was absolutely flawless and again lasted all day and night threw the photos dancing sweating and not a smudge. I can’t thank them enough for helping and making my day so special and hassle free. I can’t recommend them enough they are absolutely amazing at what they do.
Tressa and her team came highly recommended to me from multiple people who had great experiences and the reviews and photos of other brides were great. Unfortunately, my experience was not great.
There was little to no communication from booking to my wedding day. I had decided not to do a trial as I had seen the team's work first hand at my friend's wedding, and again the rave reviews gave me great confidence. This was my mistake.
Two weeks before my wedding I had not heard anything from Tressa or her team, so I sent an email to check in and request the invoice for services as it was passed due. I received the invoice two days before my wedding.
The night before my wedding, at 9pm, in the middle of my rehearsal dinner I received phone calls and a text from someone named Liz stating she was contacted to do hair for my wedding in the morning. She requested that I send her pictures of all of my bridesmaids and inspo pictures for my hair. Liz also informed me that she does not do updos and to pass that along to my bridesmaids. What if I had wanted an updo? I had already sent all my inspo pictures to Tressa, and no one ever asked for pictures of my bridesmaids. I was in the middle of dinner with all my family and friends, and had to be up early the next morning, I was livid. I spent the rest of dinner sending pictures and info to Liz. I texted Tressa to let her know that this was unprofessional and unacceptable, I didn't get a text back until the next morning, when Liz was already in my bridal suite setting up. Needless to say my bridesmaids and I all wore our hair down.
The makeup artist was Ali, and she was very sweet. I had paid to have some of my tattoos covered and she did her best, but it was obvious this was not something she had a lot of experience in. By the time we had to leave the makeup on one of my tattoos was already failing and I just left it as we were running late. The coverage was completely gone by the time the ceremony started.
I learned the morning of my wedding, Tressa and her usual team, the team that all my friends and these fantastic reviews are about, were doing hair and makeup for Tressa's brother's wedding, and I was sent whoever was available. I totally understand taking care of your family, but if you can't offer services of the same value you shouldn't have booked my event.

Hi Mary Ellen,
I want to personally apologize that your experience was not the 5-star experience we strive for. There are no excuses for you to have had this type of experience with our team. This is not how we operate and I am truly sorry. Ou...
r team follows a set of guidelines and I am embarrassed that these guidelines were not met. This is the first time we have had this feedback and we will be addressing the team that worked with you to ensure it does not happen again.
Again, our deepest apologies.
Any questions?
Such a fantastic experience working with Tressa and Ali! The morning was so organized and smooth, they were on time and kept everybody calm and happy. When I changed my mind about some aspects of my hairstyle at the last minute, Tressa was quick to adjust it and make me feel comfortable. My hair and makeup looked amazing, and lasted all day and night, even taking outdoor pictures in the middle of July!
Would highly recommend.
I absolutely loved my bridal hair that was done by Tressa. She was on time, professional, and helped calm my nerves the day of. My bridesmaids’ hair looked great as well. Can’t wait to book her for future events.
Tessa and Ali were amazing. They are both very talented and friendly. They got a long with my bridesmaids and me so well, we all enjoyed talking to them as they made us look our best. Ali really worked with my fall color vibes and I couldn’t be happier the way my hair turned out by Tressa. They even last minute was patient and kind to take the time to work with me on my last minute change of removing my head piece. My bridesmaids and my hair and make up did not move all night.
Tressa & her team did a beautiful job on not only my hair but my bridal party, mom, and flower girl! I truly couldn’t have imagined my wedding morning going as smoothly as it did. They were so organized & on time. Tressa answered any and all of my questions immediately. This crew is very talented and highly recommended if you have not booked hair for your wedding yet!
Tressa was the perfect vendor for our wedding day! She did my hair, 3 bridesmaids, and the mother of the groom. She is professional, efficient, and amazing at what she does! Our hair lasted all day for pictures and all night for dancing! I couldn't recommend her enough.
Tressa and Alexandra were amazing! The hair and makeup for my bridal came out exactly how I imagined it would and for myself I could not have been more pleased. My hair and make up lasted all day and night. They were so easy to get a long with and truly made my visions of how I wanted to look on my wedding day come true! Thank you so much for everything I will continue to promote these two women everyone should use them for their special day!
Ali, Tressa, and team were amazing! I was a "COVID Bride" so not only did my wedding date change but so did some of the wedding party details due to this. They were completely flexible to all the change and made my wedding day a breeze. I had a huge group of 16 people women getting ready the morning of my wedding and their team arrive prompt and ready to go. I was also the "annoying bride" who let my girls pick what they wanted so each time they had to be ready for a new style but they nailed it. Everyone was extremely happy with their looks and my hair and make-up lasted the entire wedding and then some! Thank you Ali and Tressa I will recommend you to any of my future bride friends, you guys are amazing :)
Tressa and Ali did a beautiful job with hair and makeup and were an absolute pleasure to work with.
Awesome job! Very organized, professional and kept everyone on schedule! Thank you!
My hair and make up came out better than I ever could have hoped for on my wedding day. Ali understood what I wanted and helped me achieve a flawless, classy look. Ali and her team did hair and make up for 10 girls on the morning of my wedding and each look was just as flawless as the next. The team is professional and have a true understanding of the industry which made my morning run smoothly. These ladies are true artists and have such a passion for what they do. They went out of their way to make sure my day was perfect! You can tell they love their job!
Words cannot describe how much I and my whole bridal party absolutely loved our hair and makeup!!! Ali , Tressa and Kristina all did an amazing job not only making us all look fabulous but getting all 12 of us ready on time! Everyone’s hair stayed as well as makeup all day and night my makeup and hair did not budge(That’s saying something bc I’m a non stop dancer). You guys are absolutely amazing and I love you all thank you so much for making my special day even better.
I cannot day enough good things about “From This Day Forward”... I worked with Ali both my hair & makeup. From my amazing and easy hair & makeup trials to my big day, everything was perfect! I absolutely LOVED my hair and makeup and felt so beautiful all day long! The hair never dropped or looked dull and the makeup never faded off! It was amazing! Ali made everything simple and made me look so fabulous.. I got countless compliments on my look! She’s the best! If you’re looking for a stress-free and quality experience, choose “From This Day Forward”!
Tressa & Ashley did an amazing job on our wedding day. My bridesmaids, my mother, the flower girls, and myself all looked exceptional! They were very easy to work with & had great response time. Thank you again ladies for making me feel so beautiful on my special day! <3

Thank you so much for your kind words! You ladies were so much fun to work with. We are so glad that you were pleased with everything. Congrats again!
Tressa & Ashley did an amazing job! Very professional, accommodating, responsive, and good pricing. My hair & make up lasted great throughout my entire wedding day from 11am-1am! Thank you girls again!
Response from the Vendor on 07/31/2019
You are so welcome! We are so glad you loved everything & that your hair and makeup lasted throughout the night! Congrats again!
Tressa and Ali were amazing! I had 6 girls in my bridal party (not including myself), plus a few other family members, all of whom wanted services for the wedding day... needless to say, we had to start early! Tressa and Ali were there and all set up before any of us girls even arrived. They were totally organized, incredibly efficient with our time, and were completely open to making any adjustments to hair or makeup that anyone requested (although we were all really happy with how everything turned out!). I worked directly with Tressa leading up until the wedding day and she was always very responsive and super helpful. She even came out to my home (at least an hour drive for her each way!) for my hair and makeup trial... on New Years Eve no less! She also helped me organize everything for the wedding day, and made the (many many) adjustments to the invoice and schedule that I requested as we finalized plans. I absolutely LOVED how my hair and makeup turned out for the day of. I could not have been happier. We were all very happy with the outcome. In fact, my sister-in-law was so happy with hers that she took their card to hopefully book them for her wedding next year!

Thank you so much for your kind words! You ladies were a blast to work with. We are so happy that you loved everything! Congratulations again and hope to see you for your sister in laws wedding :-)
Awesome work by Tressa and Ashley! This dynamic duo did my hair and makeup and that of my bridal party on site and our venue and did a fabulous job. We all looked great without being overly made up. Great team to deal with - you won’t be disappointed

Thanks so much for your kind words Sue. You ladies were a pleasure to work with! Congrats again!
I was really nervous when it came time to pick who would be doing my hair and makeup for my wedding. I was excited to be all "made up" but I wanted to look as natural as possible after having a terrible experience with my engagement picture makeup. After doing a lot of research I landed on From This Day Forward's web page and fell in love with their work. After meeting with the ladies for the trial, all of my fears were put to rest! The ladies I worked with were so professional and nice and friendly and I felt like my makeup looked so natural and I felt beautiful. I even felt comfortable with fake eyelashes (which I had never worn before)! My hair was just as great! It was everything I envisioned and survived the humidity of my June wedding. The icing on the cake was every one of my bridesmaids were raving about the ladies and their hair and makeup as well! I have gorgeous pictures of gorgeous ladies because of From This Day Forward. I highly recommend them for anyone who wants to feel beautiful and themselves on their wedding day!

Thank you so much for the beautiful words! We loved working with you and your squad the morning of your wedding! Congratulations again and we are so happy you were thrilled with your services!
On March 16, 2019 my fiancé and I celebrated our engagement party. I arranged with Tressa to have someone come to the house to apply our make up and do our hair. The prices were extremely affordable! We had 4 people total. Ashley came prepared and took her time beautifying each one of us. We all showed her photos of how we pictured our hair and makeup and she did exactly that. I felt like a true princess and was given compliments all evening! We will definitely be using their services again in the future.

My wedding day hair and makeup came out even better than I had imagined! Ali is so great to work with and my hair stayed in place all day and night. She was able to cover up the fact that I was sick on my wedding day and my makeup looked flawless. I would highly reccomend From This Day Forward!

Tressa and Ali were unbelievable to work with! My bridal party was large, there were 15 of us and we had to be ready by 10am. The two of them with their team managed to have everyone ready on time and looking flawless. They also kept the mood light and fun so there was no stress. From the first email to the final look could not have been smoother.
I highly recommend these talented professionals.
Response from the Vendor on 07/31/2019
We had so much fun with you ladies, even though it was so fast paced it worked! Thank you for your kind words :-)
I had the pleasure of finding Tressa on the Knot to do my hair for my wedding of July 2018. She was FANTASTIC! She made me feel comfortable & my hair turned out beautiful! I traveled all the way to my venue for my hair! HIGHLY recommended her! She’s truly amazing with her work!
Response from the Vendor on 08/10/2018
It was a pleasure working with you ladies! Thank you for the beautiful review.
Ali and Tressa were beyond awesome! I had done a hair and makeup trial a few months prior to my wedding and was beyond thrilled. The day of the wedding, Ali and Tressa did not disappoint. They did everyone's hair and makeup so quickly but still did an amazing job. Everybody looked absolutely gorgeous. When my husband saw me for our first look, he was speechless. Ali and Tressa truly made me feel like a princess. On top of being amazing at what they do, Ali and Tressa were so down-to-earth and were just a pleasure to have around while getting ready for my wedding! Would highly recommend to anyone!!
Response from the Vendor on 07/21/2018
Thank you so much for your kind words! We had a blast working with you ladies!
Tressa, Ali and Ashley did hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids on April 14th and they were all amazing! Everyone’s hair and makeup lasted the entire night I couldn’t believe it. I did two different trials for my hair and Tressa was so easy going and accommodating about styling my hair exactly how I wanted it. My hair and makeup looked perfect on my wedding day and I couldn’t have picked a better team to make me feel so beautiful. Not only are they great at what they do they’re truly down to earth and friendly girls and I’m really glad I chose them to be apart of my big day.

Thank you so much Danielle! You ladies were a blast to work with!
I am so happy I found Alexandra to do my hair on my wedding day ! My hair came out perfect!! During my trial, she tried many hair styles until I was completely in love. Alexandra did not make me stress on my day; she came early to set up and did my hair in less than 45 minutes. I would recommend her to anyyone. Xoxo
Response from the Vendor on 04/27/2018
Thank you so much!
For the first time in 5 months I felt beautiful!
Alexandra transformed me from hot mess new mom to beautiful bride! Your visit set the tone for the rest of the day. I was confident in my look which led me to stay calm but also excited for the day!
The wedding was better than I ever imagined it would be. My hair and makeup stayed all day and night. I got a ton of compliments on my hair & makeup and love the way I look in my wedding pictures
Response from the Vendor on 04/27/2018
So glad I could help you feel your best! Thank you so much for the beautiful review
There is no doubt in my mind why they are one of the Knots best! I would give them 10 stars if I could. Tressa who was my hairstylist was amazing! Her communication response via email were prompt, professional and accommodating. Ashley, my make up artist was so talented and fun. I used the touch up service which WOW'ed my guests and put the finishing touches on my fairy tale wedding. I highly highly highly recommend them!!! I found them off the knot and based off the recommendations - I took a chance and I am so grateful I did. I hope to use them again for any events. I cannot thank them enough for all they did! My groom loved it!!!

You and your mom were a blast to work with and coming to the venue was the highlight of our day! Thank you so much for your amazing review <3
These girls are amazing!! Tressa & Alexandra made me, my girls and my mother feel absolutly beautiful!! My trial with Alexandra went perfectly and I received so many compliments on the fantastic job she did on both my hair and makeup. I had done three other trials with other companies beforehand and these girls are the BEST! They listened to all my feedback and went above and beyond!! On my wedding day, they were a joy to work with, they did not rush on anyone and we could not have been happier. You must book them, you will not be disappointed!

Thank you so much for your lovely review <3
Tressa and Ali were so wonderful with me right from the beginning. Tressa was professional and caring when I was only inquiring. It's because of that that I decided to move forward with their services. They were accommodating with my early schedule (4:45am). They were prompt and made me feel comfortable. They did my mothers hair/makeup as well and they listened to all our concerns and wanted to make sure we were both happy. I would definitely work with them again for any future event.
Response from the Vendor on 04/27/2018
You ladies were wonderful to work with, even at 5 am! Thank you so much for your lovely review. I am so happy we were able to make you all feel so beautiful..
Tressa and the rest of the from this day forward crew did a spectacular job for me and my girls on my wedding day. It was a hot and sweaty late June day and night and I looked my absolute best through it all. Thank you amazing girls!
Response from the Vendor on 04/27/2018
Thank you so much! We are thrilled your makeup did not "sweat off" that airbrush does wonders :-)
Absolutely amazing! I dealt with Tressa from start to finish and she was professional, friendly and accommodating. Everything from booking with them to the execution was flawless. Our hair and makeup lasted throughout the day and still looked perfect at the very end of the night. These girls are the dream team! I looked high and low for affordable hair and makeup that looked top notch and found it with From This Day Forward Bridal! Thank you so much girls!
Response from the Vendor on 08/03/2017
Thank you so much for choosing From This Day Forward! We had a great time working with you as well.
What a wonderful experience! My wife and I flew Alexandra to San Jose Del Cabo, Mexico for our destination wedding in May 2017, since we were not comfortable trusting someone from the hotel. She was worth it! She made both of us feel so beautiful and made our day even more perfect! She did our makeup exactly as we requested. Both my wife and I have completely different styles when it comes to make up, and Alexandra was able to please both of us equally. I would definitely recommend.. especially for a destination wedding!

I cannot express how happy I was with From This Day Forward. Tressa and Ali made me feel like a true princess on my wedding day. My hair and makeup were done beyond my expectations. From the moment they arrived, I knew my bridal party and I were in good hands. They were prompt, professional and listened to all of my concerns. My hair and makeup lasted from church through dancing all night. I highly recommend From This Day Forward Bridal Hair and Makeup Design for any brides that want the best out there!

We had a blast working with you and we are so happy that you were pleased with everything!
Absolutely loved both hair & makeup !!! Everyone looked stunning. Couldn't have done it better ! Hair was styled how everyone wanted as well as makeup. Both stayed in the entire day and night and makeup did not need any touching up and did not look like it was done hours ago. Beautiful job. Thank you soo much
Response from the Vendor on 07/25/2017
You are so welcome :-) Thank you for choosing From This Day Forward
I am not one to take the time to write reviews, but I just had to rave about these girls and this amazing company. Tressa did the hair for myself and 5 of my bridesmaids while Alexandra did our makeup. I was hesitant about the airbrush at first but I am so happy that we used airbrush. Both girls were friendly and professional. I could tell from our first conversation how passionate they were about their jobs, which along with their beautiful work, is why I chose them! I will be using Tressa and Alexandra for any other functions I have from now on.

Everything I wanted for my hair and makeup they executed flawlessly. My hair and makeup lasted from 8am until 3am. All three stylists were professional, friendly and great at what they do. I would highly recommend them to anyone I know that is tying the knot :) Thank you again ladies, I was beyond happy with everything.

I had gotten my make up & hair done for a wedding by "From This Day Forward Bridal Hair & Make up". Tressa did my hair and Cathy did my make up. They both did an amazing job! My hair and make up stayed perfect all night and I received so many compliments! They also took their time and made sure we were 100% happy with the way we looked once we were done. I would definetly use them again, and I highly recommend!
