Jennifer was so great! She did makeup for me and 3 of my bridesmaids. Some of my bridesmaids were unsure if they wanted to get makeup services but they ALL were SO HAPPY with Jennifer’s work. She’s so personable and she really listens to what you want. My girls all looked beautiful! Thank you Jennifer!

Jennifer was amazing, So fun to spend the morning with of my wedding. From day one of communication she has been nothing short of wonderful. She did myself and 6 other people for my wedding. Everyone looked beautiful and got a lot of compliments! Would recommend to anyone. And if ever need a service like this again I’m absolutely using Jennifer! Very reasonably priced

Jenny absolutely CRUSHED it!
From my initial contact until the end, Jenny was quick to respond and kept the line of communication open. I was nervous before my trial, as I had never had professional makeup done before. Her sense of humor quickly put me at ease making it such an enjoyable experience. I couldn’t wait to text my friends a picture of my fresh face! Her application was flawless and I never felt more beautiful. A week before the wedding I realized I made a huge error and had not accounted for a family member to have a service done. I was so upset at myself and afraid to tell Jenny. To my surprise, she was able to make the change and was very kind and understanding. I absolutely will book her for all of my future events. A 5-star rating is not enough.

Jennifer made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day that the moment I saw myself, I wanted to cry — in the best way possible. I truly didn’t think I could ever feel that stunning, but she brought out a version of me I didn’t even know was possible. Her talent is unreal, but her energy and calmness made the entire experience even more special.
She didn’t just make me feel amazing — she made my mom, my mother-in-law, and my entire bridal party look and feel absolutely flawless. Everyone was raving about how confident and gorgeous they felt. Jennifer is one of those rare artists who listens, understands your vision, and somehow exceeds every expectation.
If you’re looking for someone who will make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself on the biggest day of your life, Jennifer is your girl. I am forever grateful for what she did for me and my family.

Words cannot explain how thankful I am to Jennifer and Amanda for being their on my special day. I was one of those last minute brides to schedule with a makeup artist for my bridesmaids since I had planned on doing my own. Jennifer fit me in and made it work perfectly with no problems. I had a makeup trail with another company and was not a fan of my makeup and figured it would be the same with everyone. However, the day of the wedding I was so stressed I couldn’t even think about doing my own. After seeing how beautiful and perfect my ladies makeup came out my sister asked if they could fit me in. Jennifer had another group of girls to do so Amanda agreed to. I explained exactly what I wanted. Not heavy, bring my tan out, and natural. SHE HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK. I was speechless. I felt so beautiful and so much stress was lifted off my shoulders. ladies, if you are picky and worried about your makeup, these talented women KNOW what they are doing and will listen to you!!!! I cannot recommend them more!!! Book with J. Casaldi Artistry for your engagement and wedding makeup. I promise you, you won’t regret it!!! Love : The Bride, Mrs. Holt

Jenn was amazing! My bridal makeup was everything I could have asked for and more. I totally felt like myself as it was a similar style that I do on myself. My bridesmaids looked gorgeous as her work reflected them to a T. I couldn’t recommend a MUA more!!

I had the privilege of working with Jennifer for my wedding. She and her cohort absolutely crushed 7 bridesmaids, two moms, and my makeup without a single hitch. We talked about my vision at my trial and she listened and asked all the right questions. On the day of, I asked for a little tweak and she immediately went to work. I have NEVER in my life felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. I am so grateful that I chose Jennifer, 10/10 would hire her again.

J. Casaldi Artistry did the makeup for my wedding. Four bridesmaids, 2 mothers, and myself all had our makeup done. She was easy to communicate with and very friendly. She did an amazing job on everyone. She even helped create a timeline for when everyone would go. As well as cooridanted nicely with the hair stylist the morning of the wedding to make sure everything ran smoothly. She is amazing!

Jennifer did a beautiful job on wedding make-up for myself, my mom, and three of my bridesmaids. I even threw her a curveball the morning of my wedding asking for a few changes from my trial and she did awesome! She brought a calm and kind energy to a hectic day and even had my mom beaming (despite my mom being nervous and never having gotten her make-up professionally done before). People were consistently complimenting my make-up on my wedding day. :)

Absolutely outstanding! Jennifer and Amanda were wonderful and went above and beyond. As the bride, my makeup looked exactly how I wanted and how we had planned at my trial. I also had a few bridesmaids who needed changes or touch-ups before we left, and they were extremely helpful in making sure everyone felt comfortable and confident to walk down the aisle. Jennifer also helped me hide a tan line on my back with airbrush makeup!! And we were done with time to spare. Overall, cannot recommend enough.

Jennifer did and outstanding job supporting our wedding prep from the initial contact and trail run through the wedding day! She and her colleague arrived on time and prepared at our hotel and they were very easy to work with throughout the day! They were always responsive to feedback and worked with everyone to be sure they were satisfied. Despite the challenges of a power outage in the middle of prep they stayed cool and flexible when we had to move to another site to complete our prep. We highly recommend Jennifer. She was also affordable compared to many. You will not be disappointed!

Jennifer was the best makeup artist I could've hired for my wedding makeup! Not only was she so professional, informative, and communitive, but also fun! I had a great makeup trial months in advance, but by wedding day, I had a few tweaks I wanted to make and Jennifer read my mind flawlessly and nailed it. That girl is magic with a makeup pallet and despite being out in the sun, laughing, and crying tears of joy all day, my makeup didn't move an inch. Do yourself a favor and book J. Casaldi Artistry now!

I booked Jennifer for my winter wedding and she was very kind and professional. She listened to what everyone wanted for their makeup looks and everyone was very happy with how their makeup turned out. She was able to complete makeup for myself (the bride), 5 bridesmaids, and 2 moms, and she still took the time to make sure everything was perfect for each person. I don't have enough good things to say other than I definitely recommend Jenny for your event!

I’m so glad I chose Jennifer to glam me and my bridal party. I received so many compliments on my makeup on and after my wedding day. Jennifer was very easy to work with and incredibly accommodating. We changed the timeline about 3 times up until the week prior (whoops) but she made it all work and we finished on time. Her assistant was very kind as well. Jennifer brought out the natural beauty in all my bridesmaids and mother. Everyone looked lovely. Thank you Jennifer!!

I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT J. CASALDI ARTISTRY! She is fantastic to work with - Jennifer did my makeup for my engagement photos, for a trial/boudoir shoot, and for my wedding day and she absolutely blew me away every single time! My girls were raving about their makeup as well (one even took a photo as her “inspiration shot” for her own wedding!). She is wonderful to work with - fun, punctual, and made the morning of the wedding a breeze! So thankful for you!

Jeni was amazing! She was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day. It was me, 4 bridesmaids, my mom, and my aunt for make up on my wedding day, and she made every single one of us look stunning. She is professional and explained the process of airbrush to anyone who wasn't familiar with it prior to putting it on. She showed up early, and brought her own light and chair, and just flowed with the day. I never felt like we were rushed, and we didn't have to start super early to make my timeline either.
She made me feel amazing, and my make up stayed in place all day.

I don’t wear much makeup regularly, and Jennifer made me feel like an absolute princess on my wedding day (while still looking like myself). My makeup and my bridesmaids makeup lasted the whole night through rain, humidity, and lots of dancing. Jennifer is amazing! Book her! She won’t disappoint.

Jennifer was the make up artist for our wedding in October. From my trial to the wedding day, she was quick to respond to any email I sent. Her work is amazing! She followed a picture I provided and then made it work for me since I rarely wear any make up. All of my bridesmaids and my mom looked fantastic for the wedding day and the make up stayed in place and was absolutely flawless. She is so kind and laid back and fit right in to the calm and relaxing environment during the morning of our wedding. Highly recommend her!

Jennifer did a great job of makeup for my wedding party of 8. Everyone’s makeup held up through the day/night, even after my multiple times of having happy tears. She was a great addition to our morning, and really fit in like she was part of the bridal party. During my trial, she made me feel relaxed and asked many questions to ensure my makeup was exactly how I wanted it. Me being a girl who doesn’t wear a lot of makeup, she gave me tips and different products she was using so I could use the same things at home. I would most definitely hire Jennifer again if I needed professional makeup done.

Jen was absolutely AMAZING. As someone of color with dry skin who doesn't wear makeup, I was very worried about looking too fake or made up, but it was perfect.
