Nancy is an extremely talented makeup artist and a genuinely kind and caring person. She doesn't just want you too look good on your day--she wants you to feel good too! She worked with me to understand exactly the look I was going for and I was so happy with my makeup. She also did my bridesmaids as well as both mothers in the wedding and everyone was pleased with her work. We did run behind schedule with makeup on the day of, but Nancy made sure it all worked out in the end, and we finished at a time that still allowed us to get the photos I wanted before the ceremony. Dramatic or natural makeup--Nancy does it all, and she does it well!
Nancy was wonderful to work with. I had her for my wedding this summer. She did my makeup as well as my mother's and the bridesmaids. Everyone looked amazing and beautiful. It was natural and lasted all night, even on a summer day. I would definitely recommend her services!
Nancy is INCREDIBLE! She did my wedding makeup, as well as my bridesmaids! I couldn’t be happier with the outcome! She was extremely professional!(As well as super friendly!!) Her calming personality definitely helped lower the stress! Nancy made everyone feel comfortable and made sure to ask about any skin concerns. She came prepared with every possible makeup product/tone/etc. Nancy is a miracle worker! She got through all of us crazy, stressed and loud girls in perfect timing! (Thank you for putting up with us lol) Nancy made each one of us look beautiful! Our makeup lasted ALL night! Even through all the sweat and tears! (Including the eyelashes!) I highly recommend Nancy!!
Nancy is such an awesome person to have at your wedding because she is kind with a warm energy. I thought she did an amazing job on the makeup of all my bridesmaids and they alll agreed! She also did airbrush makeup which looked fantastic. she is open to suggestions and definitely make me and my BMs feel comfortable and confident in our makeup! Thank you Nancy!!
Nancy is such a fantastic makeup artist! She does a great job of keeping your makeup light and emphasizing your most beautiful features. She also did my bridesmaids' makeup and they all looked gorgeous. I felt so beautiful on my special day and I could not recommend Nancy enough!
For our wedding I hired Nancy to be our makeup artist for myself & 5 bridesmaids & mother of the groom! I added a twist to her work, as I bumped the corner of my eye a few days prior to the wedding and the bruise traveled all over my eyelid! So had a lovely purplish black eye She covered it flawlessly, my makeup was beautiful & when people tell you all night long how gorgeous you look, you know it’s because of makeup & hair haha!!!! We all had a ball all morning getting ready, Nancy is the sweetest, a very calming presence during the chaos of a wedding morning! She’s a peach & I highly recently Nancy Gorman @Makeup by Nancy for your wedding makeup needs!!! Thank you Nancy for making us look so beautiful!
First, Nancy is amazing at what she does! Nancy did my makeup for my wedding. I am not an everyday makeup wearer so I was really nervous to book someone. Nancy made me feel so comfortable and at ease, she understood that I wanted to look like my natural self. Nancy was extremely easy to work with, she explained nearly everything she was using and during my trial we figured out what was going to work best for my wedding day. When the day came she did all the makeup for myself and my wedding party, we all looked amazing! 10/10 would recommend Nancy!
I booked Nancy for our wedding reception after postponing last year due to Covid. I wanted to replicate my look from last year and Nancy was so accommodating and helpful - she is so easy to work with, and really wants to make your day perfect. She was so gracious with my family, even bringing a little kit for our flower girl. I would highly recommend working with Nancy!
I hired Nancy for my wedding day makeup after working with her previously when I was a bridesmaid in 3 other weddings. She is the best! Flexible, accommodating, and makes you feel beautiful! She is great at personalizing each person's makeup to make them look and feel their best! I would highly recommend!
So talented!!! Nancy had first done my makeup when I was a bridesmaid in my cousin's wedding. She did such an amazing job that I made sure she was the first vendor I booked when I got engaged!! Right from my trial, I knew that I had made the right choice. With just a short conversation with her she knew exactly what I wanted. She is seriously the best and made everyone look amazing!! Every single one of my bridesmaids absolutely loved their make up! She truly listens to what you want and makes it happen. On the big day, Nancy arrived on time and made the whole experience so fun and enjoyable. She was very organized throughout the day so I never felt rushed for time. It was truly an unforgettable experience. Thank you so much Nancy for making my wedding day so special!!
Nancy has been so helpful from the start. The makeup trial was perfect and a relief. When the pandemic unfold, Nancy was wonderful with staying in touch checking to see if any changes needed to be made. The day of the wedding her & her assistant were so organized that it through flawlessly even with 10 bridesmaids!!!
Nancy is great at what she does and she loves her work or play should I say!!! She helped to make me feel beautiful for my day. She can do any look you want. Thank you Nancy for taking care of my 55 year old face :-)
Nancy did my makeup for a friends wedding and I was in love with how natural it looked. When it came time for me to find someone to do makeup for my own wedding, I knew Nancy was the one to go to. She does a fantastic job and actually listens to what you want. Nancy rocks!!
I am so happy that I chose Nancy Gorman for my wedding makeup artist!! I got married in Ipswich, MA on 8/10/19 and Nancy was a perfect fit for my bridesmaids and I. She did such an amazing job on all of our makeup. I typically don’t wear a lot of makeup so I asked for a natural look and was so pleased with the final result. I got a ton of compliments that day and still felt like myself! She listened to our requests and finished all of the bridesmaids’ makeup as well as my mother in laws with perfect timing. Not only is she professional and knows her stuff but also has such a fun, bubbly personality. She even went out of her way to bring an essential oils diffuser and asked what I would like her to bring. I was feeling anxious and asked for something calming and it totally helped! We had a great experience with Nancy and I would recommend her to any bride!!
I can't say enough about Nancy. I have had the pleasure of having Nancy doing my makeup for two weddings previous to my own. She did my makeup flawlessly in all three weddings! I am not much of a makeup wearer and Nancy knew that. She made sure that I was happy and comfortable throughout the entire process. I am a huge crier but my makeup stayed on my face perfectly without a smudge or anything! Not only is Nancy wonderful at makeup but she fits right in and makes you feel comfortable and relaxed on the day of the wedding! I would highly recommend Nancy to anyone!
Nancy is truly amazing; I cannot recommend her enough! My wife and I got Nancy's name through a friend and she totally exceeded our expectations from start to finish. During our trial she got to know us, what we used for make-up, what look we were going for, etc. (which was VERY different for myself, a normal make-up wearer, and my wife who never wears a drop of make-up). She was able to accommodate both of our styles easily and perfectly! She also is SUPER responsive. She always got back to me within hours of emailing her and she was so flexible with all of her responses! It was so helpful to have such an easy person to work with.
On the day of our wedding Nancy arrived on location on time, ready to have fun with us! She bonded with our bridal party and moms who were all getting ready together seamlessly and she was a natural fit for our group. Our group had blondes, brunettes, fair skinned girls, and some with a little more of a tanned complexion and each of us looked like a gorgeous, glamorous, natural, version of ourselves. It was simply incredible.
Then, two days later, we hosted a big New Year's Eve party for friends and asked Nancy to come back to do our make-up for that event too! She was amazing! She totally glammed us up- everything was shimmery, sparkly, and amped up for a night of partying. She totally got the feel we were going for and nailed it!
The bottom line is- whatever you want, Nancy will be able to achieve it and you'll look absolutely gorgeous and 100% like yourself. You cannot go wrong with booking Nancy!
Nancy is an amazing makeup artist. She transformed what I envisioned into something even better than I imagined. She is so sweet and easygoing and most importantly, she takes the time to listen and ensures what you really want is just perfect. All of my bridesmaids who had their makeup done by Nancy were impressed by how they looked and especially by how long they looked good the whole night (and next morning too!! LOL!). I highly recommend Nancy!
This woman deserves 5,000 stars; I cannot possibly recommend Nancy enough for your makeup needs.
About a week and a half before my wedding, my makeup artist had to back out of our date because something had come up. I made 3 appointments immediately for trials and the original makeup artist was even willing to send me her associate at a discount.
I went in with pictures describing the look I wanted to each one as references for color palate and feel.
It was as if they all ignored what I showed them. They nodded, “uh huh, yup, got it, ok”, and then when we were done, they used nothinG in the palate I’d shown them. I literally gave them cheat notes, and they still failed the test?
Ok. Onto quality. The first was ok, but didn’t wow me, I felt she was great for prom makeup or a night out. I’m sure I’d look great in pics but I’m going to be in this makeup all night, sweating and talking and eating and dancing and it was just too heavy feeling for a wedding. The second.... I won’t even go into detail, but I was literally speechless when she was done. I’m not a rude person but it looked like someone, um, young did my face.. I thought maybe she was joking and then realized she was serious so thanked her and put ON the hat I walked in with even lower on the way out. This i not an exaggeration, it actually happened. The third, way too heavy. She knew color, (though not what I asked for) but I could see every pore in my face even more than before she started. I was resigned to take whoever the associate of my original girl sent and lined up a trial for about 2 days before, but then..... Nancy. Oh, my saving grace. I had been interested in her work but she was unavailable. However, when she heard of my dilemma, she felt bad (who feels bad for a last minute bridE?!) and told me to come by her house for a trial. I have literally never been so happy with anyone doing my make up in my entire life. I say that having sat in multiple makeup chairs for acting jobs in New York and Los Angeles. This girl was so far beyond what I asked for. Her light-as-air airbrush coverage made my skin flawless AND stayed put all night. She checked in with me, referenced my pics and ACTUALLY PAID ATTENTION TO THEM. She knew the style and feel and I trusted her to go for it and I kid you not, when she turned the mirror to show me at the end, I cried because I was like, “This is it.” I’d say I ugly cried, except she made me so pretty. I can not recommend her highly enough. She was not only my saving grace, but better than my original and I will now use nobody else but her in the future. I guarantee you. You will be happy with Nancy.
Nancy is the absolute best!! I have worked with her on countless occasions for a variety of different events. Each one I have left feeling like a million bucks and have gotten so many compliments on my make-up. Besides being the sweetest, most down to earth person she is incredibly talented. She really knows her stuff, she can just look at your face and know what colors/style will flatter it the most. She can glam you up without making you look fake or she can give you a naturally beautiful look if that's what you prefer. All of my bridal party had different tastes in make up and Nancy easily accommodated them all and they were all blown away by her talent! Do yourself a favor and book her!
Nancy was not only a great make up artist but by the end of the wedding a friend. She came with bells on the day of and worked amazingly with all of my girls. Nancy made my day stress free and always was willing to help out in anyway needed, she goes above and beyond what you expect. Her work came out gorgeous in every photo taken. I would highly recommend Nancy!
Nancy goes above and beyond for her customers. Add that to her stellar work, and you have one amazing person!
I first worked with Nancy when I was the MOH in my best friend's wedding two years ago. While I typically wear makeup, my bestie really doesn't; I was really curious how Nancy would glam someone up without making them look overdone if they're typically a natural beauty. My best friend looked stunning- Nancy mixed a very natural "enhancement" style of makeup with a few touches of drama that made my BFF look stunning. I was also lucky enough to have Nancy do my makeup, which was simple but stunning.
So, of course, when I recently got married I HAD to have Nancy! I loved my makeup- it was the "dramatic but not costume-y" look I wanted, which I was really struggling to describe. Nancy somehow knew instantly during my trial what to do, taking into account my wedding venue, skin tone, time of year, wedding colors, etc. She did the same style for my wedding, and everyone kept complimenting on how perfect it looked. I absolutely loved it. She also did a couple bridesmaids as well as my mother's makeup, taking into account their styles and typical makeup application. My mom is totally makeup free at all times, and even she loved her fully-done look!
Here's where Nancy really shines, though. I posted on social media that I needed wine bottles the week before my wedding after changing some decor on a whim; Nancy came through with 100 for me! She even picked them up from the restaurant that offered them to her. She didn't expect anything out of this; she was simply just being a good person, helping someone out.
Nancy really loves what she does. She takes pride in her work and really strives to make relationships with her clients, and it shows. Nancy, you're the best!
Simply a marvel!
Nancy stepped in practically the very last moment to provide her expert airbrush makeup services for my son's wedding (our original artist unfortunately had to have emergency surgery just days before the wedding), and did an absolutely exceptional job on the group! Thru searing heat, horrible humidity, rain, and dancing up a storm, we all looked as fresh and natural at the end of the evening as when she finished with us!
Further, Nancy is an absolutely delightful woman - calm, orgainized, kind, charming and very professional. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
Nancy was amazing! She made all of us feel comfortable and beautiful and I LOVE how natural all of the makeup looked and felt. I highly recommend Nancy to anyone needing a makeup artist!
I had the pleasure of working with Nancy for my wedding day makeup and I was so extremely pleased! She listened to what I wanted for my look and she really has an expert eye for what works well. Nancy did a fantastic job for everyone in my party and we received compliments all night long! I definitely recommend Nancy for your wedding or special occasion makeup needs.
Nancy was great! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She was super easy to work with and very accommodating. I wanted my makeup to look natural and she did just that! My bridal party was in in the larger side. She worked with ease and everyone's makeup was fantastic!
This review is long overdue & I could seriously write a book on Nancy. I initially met Nancy as a bridesmaid in my cousins wedding. When she first came walked in she had guessed what our typical "makeup style" was-which for me is minimal to no makeup on the daily. I can't even tell you how comfortable it made me feel when Nancy guessed that off the bat. In the countless number of weddings I have been in, Nancy was most successful at keeping me at ease in fear of what my makeup might turn out like. For someone who never wears makeup there is the fear that you will end the session not even looking like yourself. I ended up contacting Nancy a week after my cousins wedding to secure her for my own wedding, it was a no brainer. I highly recommend Nancy as a makeup artist for any occasion. The level of comfort for quality is well worth it on a day of high stress and excitement!
Nancy was amazing. She did my whole bridal party and myself and those of us who are not makeup wearers looked stunning and natural and those of us who do wear makeup and may have been skeptical were blown away. She went above and beyond and was super down to earth and really helped calm my nerves (I got a mild sunburn 1 week before the wedding) she was worth every penny I spent.
If your looking to get your make up done, you've come to the right place! Wether it be prom, wedding, boudoir, maternity photos, etc. I honestly have nothing but amazing things to say about Nancy. She's extremely talented and gave me the EXACT look I wanted on my wedding day. She was very accommodating from beginning to end and couldn't be more friendlier. She handled my 10 person wedding party in a timely manner and everyone loved her. One even used her again for her maternity photos. She helped answer any questions I had. She recommended someone to shoot my boudoir photos (who was also amazing) and even coordinated my wedding trial make up so I looked fabulous. I honestly could go on and on... I know I'll for sure be using her for any make up occasion I may need. Thank you a TON Nancy. I appreciate you!!! ��
Nancy is amazing!! I am not normally a makeup wearer, so I was a little worried that I would look "overdone" on my wedding day, but Nancy is an absolute magician. I felt so gorgeous and still looked like "me"! She made me feel so comfortable from the initial trial and on the day of the wedding; she is such a warm, kind person and so easy to chat with. I loved having her there and she was able to do the makeup for my bridesmaids, mom and mother-in-law as well! Everyone looked absolutely stunning - she is amazing at enhancing everyone's natural beauty and I could not have been happier with the end result! Thank you Nancy - you are the best!!
I was referred to Nancy by a good friend, picking Nancy to do my make up for my wedding was the best decision. Nancy's style is great, she applies make up in a natural way, so you look like yourself. When I met Nancy I told her I want to look like me on my wedding day but more glamorous, this is her specialty. She also did makeup on my mom and my bridesmaids, they all loved their makeup! Her personality is the best, as soon as I met her I felt like I was talking to a good friend, she is so kind and fun. If you want to love your make up and love the women doing your makeup call Nancy!
Where do I even begin?! I first met Nancy when she did our makeup at my sisters wedding a few years back. When I contacted her to do my wedding she was so excited from the get go. Nancy is one of a kind.. not only does she just make you look and feel beautiful on your big day but she takes the time to get to know you. She doesn't rush,she doesn't just want to get on with her day, she takes her time with each individual and does amazing work. I can not thank her enough for making myself and my girls look like a million bucks!!!
Nancy is awesome! First of all, she is so nice, fun, and down to earth; her personality is exactly what you need the day of your wedding! Her prices are very reasonable, fake eyelashes are included in the price, and if you hire her (which you should!) the cost of the trial is subtracted from the cost of your wedding day makeup. She made everyone feel so comfortable, and she did an amazing job with everyone's makeup!
Nancy and her assistant Sue were the best! She is so friendly and upbeat and helped to calm my nerves the day of. Her prices are so reasonable for the work that she does. She is so quick to respond to emails and you can tell that she really takes pride in her work and cares about her brides. She did makeup for 11 people total the day of my wedding and everyone looked stunning! My bridesmaids said out of all the weddings they’ve been in that they liked their makeup the most from Nancy. I can’t recommend her enough- she is fabulous and I would definitely work with her in the future!! Thank you Nancy for making me feel so beautiful!!
Nancy was amazing and so easy to work with. Even before my trial, I felt like I knew her. She listed to my concerns of being a "plain jane" and didn't go overboard but made me feel stunning. My Mom & all my bridesmaids were also thrilled with their makeup. Thanks again Nancy!!
Nancy was an awesome makeup artist. All the girls came out beautiful. I decided on Nancy because her style is to make you look natural. She even had my hotel room cleaned after the bridal party left so it would be nice and neat for the honeymoon suite after the wedding.
