I cannot say enough good things about Genna Ellis Bridal. From the very beginning, Genna made me feel so comfortable and truly listened to what I wanted. My makeup was absolutely flawless and still looked perfect at the end of the night — but what really impressed me was how much care she put into skin prep. My skin has never looked that smooth, glowy, or natural in photos.
Alisher was amazing with my hair and extensions. I was nervous about blending since I’m blonde, but everything looked completely seamless and so full. My hair stayed in place all day and night and photographed beautifully.
The entire experience felt calm, organized, and so personalized. Nothing felt rushed and I felt genuinely taken care of the whole morning. My bridal party loved them as well and everyone looked stunning.
If you want a luxury bridal beauty team that goes above and beyond — especially when it comes to skin prep and extensions — Genna Ellis Bridal is absolutely worth it.
I have never felt as beautiful and confident as I did on my wedding day and I owe it all the Genna and Alisher. I could not recommend this entire experience enough. Each of my girls left raving over how much they loved getting ready with Genna, Alisher, and Braeden. It was so comfortable like we had been friends for years. I had a large wedding party and a tight timeline, but they took care of us with the utmost care. They were punctual, efficient, and produced stunning work that kept compliments coming throughout the entire day. They listened to and respected the requests and feedback of each of my girls. I have been in wedding parties where all of the bridesmaids get the same standardized hair and make up services that tend to feel rushed, but our experience with Genna, Alisher, and Braeden was so far from that. Everyone received individualized care and was treated like she was the most important person of the day. Whether you knew exactly how you wanted things done or had no idea where to start, they were there to guide and support you with their expertise. They executed it all perfectly.
