About this vendor
Here at Kiss and Makeup Creations, we aim to make each bride look like a flawless version of their everyday self. It's my goal (and super power) to set each client's mind at ease. I have a knack for understanding my clients needs and wants without "over doing it." When you book my services, you not only receive perfect hair and makeup, but you are also receiving 20 years of trained experienced, when it comes to weddings I have seen it all and I know how things should be done, and when. Don't be surprised if I stick around to make sure your dress has been properly steamed, or if I have to perform and "emergency haircut" on the father of the bride (it happens). Please call or email today to inquire about your date. The sooner you book my services, the better, as I tend to book up quickly! (925)550-2569 text or call, kissandmakeupteresa@gmail.com
I can't wait to feed you champagne and make you look like your best self!

Teresa was an amazing professional to work with on hair and makeup. She was communicative ahead of the event, punctual, kind, and very knowledgeable of her craft. She created a nat...
ural makeup look that was aligned with my vision, and practical for the dynamics of a wedding day. I don’t typically wear makeup, and ended up with many compliments, and a wonderful look for pictures!
Teresa was awesome! She helped me come up with my makeup and hair look without being too over the top. She definitely made myself and my bridesmaids comfortable the day of. She’s a...
lot of fun and great at what she does. You’ll come out looking beautiful and confident!
She is amazing!!! Her team made the journey for us and got an early start. They made everyone feel their absolute best! All of our guests commented on how stunning our wedding pa...
rty looked. For myself, she made me glow. I have never felt more confident or beautiful!! She also made my wife who very rarely wears makeup feel gorgeous. Our makeup stayed put our entire wedding. Even through the happy tears. I cannot recommend her enough! If you are getting married you need her. Period!! She will make you feel like a million bucks!!!
I booked Teresa for my elopement hair + makeup. She responded right away to my outreach, and the booking process was easy. Day of, Teresa arrived exactly on time. We had a lovely ...
time chatting as she got me ready. (Since it was an elopement it was just me - but we were chatting like old friends right away.) Teresa's products were high quality and I was pleased with my look. It was the natural glam I was looking for. I have a lot of hair and the style held up all day and night. Same with my makeup - no touch-ups needed. Thanks Teresa!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Teresa (and her team). Not only is she an amazing makeup artist but she is truly an amazing human. Punctual, professional, a great listen...
er and an amazing makeup artist, Teresa truly is the best in the biz. On the day of my wedding, she helped keep the mood light and fun - she even helped me with my hair as my hairstylist had left early. Work with Teresa, you will not regret it!!!!!!!
Teresa is such a talent! I came to her and was not sure exactly the hair style I wanted for my wedding day and she came up with something that was absolutely stunning. Teresa also ...
did the hair for 6 of my bridesmaids and they had nothing but the best things to say about her. She made me feel perfect on my big day and I would recommend her to anyone getting married. My hair was so good it even was perfect the day after!
I'm so happy I hired Teresa to do the hair and makeup for my wedding! She did a great job and was so flexible to all the changing plans that come with trying to plan a wedding in 2...
020. Here's the thing I appreciated the most about Teresa - my bridal party covered the whole spectrum from people who love having their hair and makeup done (my MOH) to people who hate it (my mom) and everything in between, and absolutely everyone had a great time with Teresa! I think that's a testament to her as a professional, but also as a person. She went out of her way to make everyone happy and comfortable!
Teresa was THE BEST! She was organized and help keep all my bridesmaids on time with getting makeup done. I loved that she took the time to personalize each person’s experience and...
didn’t just do the basic. I would absolutely recommend to anyone getting married in the Sonoma/Santa Rosa area!
Teresa is the best! She was flexible which was great, because, well, covid, and super easy to talk to, and drove all the way up a misty mountain to do my hair and makeup in and anc...
ient airstream trailer! My advice: just let her do her thing. She’s a pro and knows what she’s doing and what’ll look best. I’m no hair or makeup person (I don’t even own a brush), and didn’t really know what I wanted even the day of. I put it all in her hands and it turned out beautifully! Plus, she was kind enough to answer all my mom’s questions about what face creams SHE should be using. Lol. Plan on hiring her again for our rescheduled reception next year.
Working with Teresa was an absolute dream! We did a hair trial before my wedding and I was blown away at what she did. The day of my wedding, she was calm, cool and hilarious. She ...
did my mom's hair and makeup and my sister's hair. They were so happy with what she did. They couldn't stop smiling. Teresa did my hair and makeup and it turned out flawless. She listened to what I wanted and went above and beyond. I'm so grateful that I found Teresa because she treated me like a friend and made the day so comfortable and easy. If you're looking for a cool, professional and extremely talented makeup and hair stylist, look no further. Teresa is the one for you!
Teresa is amazing. My makeup was airbrushed, so despite the bridal tears, makeup stayed flawless the whole day. The 2020 pandemic sure put a wrench in things, and venue location an...
d bridal party size certainly changed, but Teresa was available, flexible, and great throughout. I last minute asked Teresa to do my hair in addition to my makeup and it was AMAZING. Lots of compliments. She was able to easily adapt to requests of the (very small) bridal party ladies. Would absolutely recommend. 💯 would re-book for my non-COVID in-person non-livestream huuuuge wedding in the future! Husband is not a man of many words, but told me I looked “absolutely gorgeous.” Thanks, Teresa! 🥰
Teresa is the best. Based on pictures of her work, I knew she would be able to highlight my natural features and help me look my best on the big day. She was methodical and the end...
result for me and my bridesmaids was just perfect. Teresa also made me feel really calm that morning. She was easy to talk to and I felt like we had been friends for years. Teresa was not just a hair and makeup artist, but an emotional support as well, calming my nerves and replying quickly to questions I had leading up to the day. If you are thinking about hiring Teresa, do it!!!
Kiss and makeup was great! We only needed hair and makeup for myself (bride) and she was one of the only people I could find that didn't require a minimum, charge me an arm and a l...
eg, and did both hair AND makeup. Teresa did a wonderful job, too.
My wife hired Teresa to do her and the bridesmaids hair and makeup for our wedding. Teresa was awesome, because not only did she do a great job on them, she also cut my hair while ...
we both stood in an empty bath tub at the house we rented 😂. To say that she goes above and beyond, is an understatement. She saved me from being in the dog house for failing to get my haircut before we walked down the aisle. Thanks again, T!
I was the maid of honor in my sister's wedding this past summer, and Teresa did our hair and makeup for the wedding. Not only did she do the most perfect hair and makeup on all of ...
us (we all have severely different styles and skin tone/hair, etc) but she made the morning super fun. It was like she was one of our girlfriends, like we had all known each other for decades. We loved her so much, we made her be in a lot of our getting ready photos. My sister looked perfect, heck we all did. Hire her! She's the best!
I chose Teresa from kiss and makeup creations for a few reasons. First reason is obvious, her work is flawless. The second reason? She is attentive, responsive, and professional wh...
ich I found to be very rare in her industry. I found Teresa after another makeup artist cancelled on me three weeks prior to my wedding. It just so happened that Teresa was free on my day, which was rare and so lucky! I'm so thankful it all happened this way, I know that I've made a lifelong friend with Teresa and I wouldn't have wanted anyone else there with me that day. Love her!
Teresa was awesome! She was incredibly professional, sweet, knowledgeable and talented. She made me feel so comfortable, made sure my expectations were exceeded and gave me great a...
dvice. Wedding planning can be so overwhelming. It was really nice to have someone to help keep me calm and make me feel like an absolute queen on my special day.
I love Teresa! She is so so so amazing and made me feel absolutely gorgeous on my wedding day. She also brought Lauren with her because she did my bridesmaids, Mother’s of the brid...
e/groom, and she was awesome as well! She made the experience so relaxing and pleasant and she even helped me call my flower vendor when I was stewing about things going wrong. She is damn good at what she does and she is also an amazing person! Definitely hire her to glam you up for your wedding day!
Teresa is amazing. She was fun, professional, and most importantly super talented! She did my hair and makeup for my wedding day and I couldn't have been happier. She was on tim...
e, fun to talk to, and helped calm my nerves on the big day. You can tell she is a real professional and knows her stuff. It's clear she has done a lot of weddings and knows exactly how to get things done and take care of the bride. She even fit in my MIL's makeup last minute. Definitely book her!
Teresa did hair and makeup for our destination wedding in Sonoma for myself, 2 bridesmaids, and 2 moms. As it was a destination wedding, we'd never met Teresa prior to the wedding/...
had no trial with her. I wear makeup/do my hair maybe 6 times a year and Teresa was incredibly kind, patient, and non-judgmental as I attempted to describe what I wanted done. Her work was PHENOMENAL. Exactly what I wanted -- natural but beautiful! The mom and bridesmaid who do their hair and makeup daily were also thrilled with her services. She has an innate ability to adapt to the client at hand that was very evident in our varied group. Teresa was fun to have in the room while getting ready and super low stress. Everything was finished on time with plenty of time for touch ups. She was highly professional and came prepared with every supply under the sun. Overall, she was a key part of our very relaxed, laid back, awesome wedding day. If you have a destination wedding and cannot meet her beforehand, rest assured you'll be pleased! I would strongly encourage you to book her!
we loved using kiss and makeup for our hair and makeup! Teresa and Lauren styled my bridesmaids, myself, and the mothers and grandmother's (and Teresa even cut my father's hair whi...

we used kiss and makeup for our wedding this past may. Teresa brought her hairstylist Lauren and assistant Chris and they were so much fun! the three of them together lightened the...
mood, had us all laughing, and made everyone look flawless. I did a lot of research and their pricing is very affordable and worth every penny, book them and you won't regret it! they showed up right on time and did not get behind schedule, they even made sure we knew when to steam the dresses, eat, and cut off water unless we wanted to have to go during the ceremony. You can tell they have been doing this for YEARS. I cannot say enough great things!
I'm so glad I had Teresa to do my hair and makeup for my wedding. She was friendly, responsive, and professional throughout the booking and day-of processes. She traveled out to my...
venue in Cloverdale for a full morning for just me and 2 of my bridesmaids and did a great job. She listened to my requests and feedback, and above all was a relaxed and positive energy on my wedding day. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
Yes, Teresa is the makeup artist you are looking for! She will understand your vibe, and do your makeup even better than you've envisioned. I was worried about looking overly mad...
e up on my wedding day, but Teresa does your makeup in a way where you still look like you; just the most beautiful, magical, flawless, photogenic, version of you! My makeup stayed perfect for the whole day. And as a person, she is super sweet and easy to talk to, she'll make you laugh and put you at ease!
Look no further, Teresa is the girl for you! She was beyond amazing on my big day. She is professional, sweet as can be and so relatable (felt as though one of my girlfriends was ...
doing my hair and makeup). Loved how she was able to sense my anxiousness and help me remember what a happy day it is, a calming force for sure. She did hair and makeup on myself, 3 bridesmaid as well as my mother and MIL. Everyone was so pleased with how everything turned out. I did do a trial with here several months in advance, and of course loved how my hair and makeup turned out! She was so flexible the day of with having to tweak our original plan as I had cut several inches off of my hair but I absolutely loved what she did! My hair and make up lasted all night with hours of dancing. Wishing we were closer to use her for future events. Will refer her any chance I get!
Teresa and Lauren were beyond amazing! Teresa was extremely responsive leading up to the wedding. On the day of they were prepared, professional and so helpful! They managing a hug...
e bridal party (11 bridesmaid and the bride) like pros AND stayed on time! They were so talented and genuinely lovely ladies. They made me and all the bridemaids feel so special and gave us all the looks we wanted! Even one of my bridemaids comment she like her makeup better than her own wedding day -- Teresa is that good! I can't recommend Kiss and Makeup Creations enough; I wish I could give more than five stars. Thank you Teresa and Lauren for making me look beautiful my on special day!
I cannot say enough good things about Teresa. She was an absolute wonder. Friendly and knowledgeable, she answered all my questions and played an invaluable role in getting me and ...

. She's also flexible and very accommodating--she worked with all 6 of my bridesmaids as well as my mother in law as a last minute addition. She traveled over 150 miles to Mendocino to provide onsite services. I HIGHLY recommend her!
Teresa was fabulous and so easy to talk to. She practically read my mind as to what my vision was, and made me feel like the most beautiful bride. I would recommend her to anyone!

ible, sweet, honest, helpful, and hilarious. Because of the timeline, Teresa brought along a trusted hairstylist, Lauren, who was also wonderful! I'm beyond thrilled I picked Teresa to do my hair & make-up for the best day of my life. You're crazy if you don't go with her.
Teresa was just wonderful, like having a sister help you get ready for your wedding. She was very responsive in communication, kind, helpful, prepared, professional and talented ...
in making everyone look lovely. Teresa also goes the extra mile. She came up with a creative solution and great idea when something unexpected occurred in another aspect of the wedding...she's a treasure!
Teresa is excellent, reliable, punctual, super professional and charming person. She did my makeup and my hairstyle for my wedding, I loved it. I recommend her to any occasion.!!!
There are simply not enough words to describe how fortunate I feel to have had the pleasure of working with Teresa at Kiss and Makeup Creations for my elopement day hair and makeu...
p. Aside from being insanely talented, Teresa was so communicative, kind and accommodating. She not only took the time, but was genuinely eager to listen to my hair and makeup vision and was always honest in her professional opinions, which I so greatly appreciated (because let's be honest, I didn't know what the heck I was thinking). Teresa made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day and her warm, calm and kind demeanor put me at ease the entire day. After my experience with Kiss and Makeup Creations, I truly believe every bride would be privileged to have Teresa on their special day.
