Kelsi, let me start by saying what pleasure you have been to work with and communicate with for several months leading up to my wedding. Your artists, Jackie and Allyce, did an amazing job on me and my girls! Everyone felt so beautiful throughout the entire day and the makeup lasted all night. If you're looking for someone to do your wedding makeup at a fair price, book with Kelsi!

Kelsi was a dream to work with from start to finish. She responded promptly to my initial attempts to contact her, and her communication game was always great. At my makeup trial, Kelsi really and truly listened to me, and we created a look that I was entirely in love with. She helped me feel so beautiful; she accented everything I like about my face and downplayed my insecurities. She never talked down to me and consulted me at every point. On the day of the wedding, she was prompt and efficient; we finished ahead of schedule! Every face that she and her colleague touched turned out brilliantly, and the makeup lasted all day. I could not have asked for a better artist at any part of the process.

Kelsi and Kelly were on time, professional, so sweet, and so fun! My make up trial couldn’t of gone better before our big day! All my bridesmaids, my mom, and mother in law truly felt so beautiful after their make up was done! Kelsi’s lip color line is just amazing also! I felt like a movie star with my wedding make up! Thank you so much Kelsi and Kelly! We appreciate you both so much!

Kelsi is the best of the best! I have followed her for years and as soon as I got engaged she was the first person I reached out to. Her work is always flawless and I knew I could trust her to make me look and feel beautiful on my wedding day. She did my makeup and 4 others and everyone looked beautiful and our makeup lasted all day - even in 90+ degree weather. She was on time, reliable, and had good communication. I cannot say enough great things about her! She's so talented and so wonderful to work with!! <3
Response from the Vendor on 09/20/2021
Thank you, Stephanie! It was an honor to be able to be a part of your big day!

Kelsi was WONDERFUL to work with!! She does a great job of working with you to create the perfect makeup look you want for your big day. All of my bridesmaids loved their own day-of makeup looks & complimented how great Kelsi was at listening to the style / makeup they were looking for. If you have Pinterest inspiration, this is so helpful in creating the perfect look you're going for. Kelsi also sells her own lip product, which was great for day-of touch ups & great to have after the wedding too! Definitely recommend a trial run to talk through the look you are going for & trying everything - it helps to streamline for the day of & make sure you love your makeup!

Thank you so much! Your big day was perfection and I had so much fun with you and your bridal party!

Kelsi was super nice and her work is amazing. I recognized myself but I was also the most glamorous I will probably ever look. our wedding was in July on probably one of the hottest days, heat index of 114 with the humidity, and my makeup did not come of or smudge once. She really listens to your descriptions and the photos you use to find the best look for you.
Response from the Vendor on 01/25/2020
Thank you so much! I loved working with you on your big day. It was a hot one!! You looked stunning!

Absolutely wonderful! Kelsi really listened to what I wanted and crafted my makeup perfectly. I felt gorgeous but still like myself which is exactly what I wanted. My bridesmaids all looked stunning as well. Can’t say enough good things about her art or how wonderful she was to work with!

Kelsi did a wonderful job working with me to achieve the perfect glowy, dewy, yet non-shiny look I was hoping for on my wedding day! She looked at pictures, adjusted as needed, and let me know which products she used so I could buy the ones I loved! She arrived on time to my wedding location and, alongside her second makeup artist, completed the looks for the entire party of 8 without any issues. Highly recommend!
Response from the Vendor on 10/03/2019
Thank you so much! Your radiant look was one of my favorites! Thank you for letting my team and I be a part of your special day!

Kelsi did such an amazing job for my makeup and my bridesmaids. I felt flawless, even when I had some acne. She covered it right up and left me feeling confident on my big day. I would forever recommend her to do makeup on anyone. She even helped my mom put on lashes as well and was very sweet about everything!
Response from the Vendor on 09/24/2019
Thank you so much, Natalie! I loved getting to know you and work with you on your special day! You are so sweet and your big day was perfection!

I knew I wanted to have a makeup artist for the day of my wedding and found Kelsi on theknot.com, and will forever be thankful! I love makeup but for my wedding day, I didn't want to risk anything and knew I needed someone who would make me feel like my best self, elegant and dreamy, and Kelsi nailed it.
I also had my sister and best friend's makeup done as a gift to them, both who have very different styles and one who likes very light/natural makeup. Not only was Kelsi fully in tune with what each of us envisioned for ourselves, but she kept us included in the process and asked questions along the way that really made the final look reflective of us and what we like. The finished product for all three of us was incredible, and all were raving at how we looked. I cannot thank you enough for your kind nature, your professionalism and your upbeat, fun personality! I highly, highly recommend her and if I could give her infinite stars I would!
Kelsi, thank you for helping me look on the outside the way I felt on the inside so I could walk glowingly down the aisle to my future husband!
XO

I cannot say enough great things about Kelsi! She was so easy to work with and is very passionate about what she does. I wanted a very natural look on my wedding day and she knocked it out of the park! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. I was on the fence about hiring a makeup artist initially, but looking back I am so happy I did! She's the best, hands down!

We worked with one of Kelsi’s associates, Jackie, and she did an absolutely amazing job. The trial run went smoothly, and she listened to what I wanted for my bridal makeup to look like, and nailed it! She was also wonderful with my daughters, who were my bridesmaids.
9/21/2018 • Sarah C
Kelsi is so easy to work with and is amazing at what she does! She made me and everyone in my bridal party feel absolutely beautiful! I would highly recommend her!
9/13/2018 • Sarah B
Kelsi is so easy to talk to and really listens to what you want. I informed her the day of our wedding that I wanted to change up the eye shadow from what we did at my trial (which was in the winter) to do a little darker colors since I had more of a tan. She went above and beyond. My makeup stayed put despite how hot and humid it was. It was more beautiful than I even expected! Loved my makeup, would recommend to anyone.

Kelsi does amazing work! So friendly, gets back to you in a timely manner and answers all your questions! It’s so important to feel comfortable with someone doing something so important for your special day! She made me and all the special ladies in my life look absolutely stunning for my wedding. Very reasonable priced for the work that she does!!
8/24/2018 • Hilary C
My makeup looked great all day! My skin is normally very oily but with Kelsi’s airbrush foundation my skin looked flawless the entire night and photographed perfectly! Would def. recommend!

Kelsi is the only makeup artist I will ever use. EVER. My first experience with her was in 2016 for my engagement photos. I was so impressed with her ability to do beautiful makeup but still make me look like me. I have since had her do my makeup for my wedding, a couple galas, maternity pictures, and I will be using her for any and every upcoming event where I need to get dolled up. She airbrushes which ensures it will stay on all day and/or night. And trust me, I’ve woken up a day after looking like only one truck ran over my face, which is impressive. She does a great job of pulling out your natural beauty. I had my makeup done for a bachelorette party at a local salon in 2017 and immediately text Kelsi a picture of myself afterwards because my 3 year old niece could do better work than this “makeup artist”. I legit will never use anyone but her again. I would recommend her and any of her trusted makeup artists to everyone I know. She is THE BEST and so are all of her ladies!

Kelsi was one of my favorite vendors - she immediately felt like a friend and made me feel so comfortable. Her work is astounding! I truly felt my prettiest. She did equally as fabulous work on my bridesmaids. Hopefully will get a chance to work with her again - thank you thank you, girl!

Kelsi is so fabulous! She did an amazing job on my makeup. I had so many compliments and I felt so pretty. She is personable and professional. Want the best (price and quality)? ITS HER. Thanks Kelsi, you made my special day even better.

I had one of Kelsi's artists, Sam, who did a great job for my wedding. She perfectly matched my completion with airbrush and gave me just the look I wanted on my wedding day.
7/26/2017 • Alyssa D
Thank you so much, Kelsi! You were so awesome to work with. My makeup turned out sooooo amazing for my hot, July wedding!! Everything was on point, especially the contouring! It stayed on all night and I was far less oily and shiny. I was so impressed; she is a miracle worker! My makeup was one of my favorite parts and I got so many compliments. I recommend Kelsi Ziemann Artistry to everyone; she is very talented.

Kelsi did my makeup for my son's wedding. I absolutely loved it!! My makeup looked wonderful from 11am when I had it put on until I went to bed (after midnight!) The best part was that I have redness on my neck and she covered it so my skin on my face and neck looked flawless!! And when I cried (which as mother of the groom I did a lot) my mascara did not run at all!!! Thank you so much Kelsi for helping make our special day even more wonderful!!!!

The best around there is, period. I have been using Kelsi and her team for my event makeup needs for the last four years and there is no comparison of her artistry with others that I have used in the past. Not only is she incredibly talented, she's the sweetest girl you'll ever meet.
1/01/2017 • Jennifer V
I was so thankfully that I found Kelsi to do my wedding makeup! She did a fantastic job and was easy to work with. We had enough people that she brought an assistant that did a wonderful job as well. She did such a great job for my makeup trial that I scheduled her to do my makeup before the rehearsal dinner as well. I only wish I had enough money to hire her every weekend.
12/29/2016 • April V
I had a wonderful experience working with Kelsi. She gave me a very honest and professional opinion on what would look best and work well with my skin type and tone. The practice consultation was perfect as it showed us what areas to tweak to make my wedding day makeup flawless. Would absolutely recommend Kelsi again.

Kelsi Does AMAZING work! Airbrush Magic. Flawless, tailored to your needs and your events. She is SO talented.
Most important.... The makeup lasts! Recently I got airbrushed my appt was at noon and still was flawless all night (and even the next day! ) I didn't want to wash it off! I felt so beautiful and perfect.
She is professional, reliable, neat and tidy (IMPORTANT when working with makeup ) and brings everything she needs with her. She is just a wonderful person to work with. HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for makeup application. I use her as often as I can!!!!

I am a wedding photographer (and actually had Kelsi do my makeup at events in the past) and Kelsi is simply the best around. She's dependable, friendly to work with and does such a wonderful job making the bride look absolutely stunning. You won't regret hiring her, working with Kelsi on your big day is a dream!
