Sarah Lynn did an amazing job with my wedding! She was so organizing leading up to the event as well. The person that I had hired for hair double booked me which wasn’t discovered ...
until about 2 hours before hair wasn’t supposed to start. I called Sarah and through her contacts was able to find someone who could do my hair but also my wedding party! I can’t thank her enough. She is an amazing wedding profession and person as well!

Like most brides, I spent months on social media obsessing over my day of glam. I had a lot of anxiety around finding a make-up artist who could help curate a look that I would fee...
l confident in – these photos last a lifetime! Look no further than Sarah Lynn. I had my trial and was absolutely blown away! Sarah is a blast to spend time, made me feel at ease to express what I was looking for (and not looking for). She quickly assessed my features and how to showcase them. She uses quality products and an airbrush technique that made my skin look radiant. I couldn’t stop looking in the mirror hours after we left – so thankful that this part of my big day was in the safest hands. I ended up having Sarah do my engagement photo make up which was a GREAT way to test our look and the longevity of the products. I even had a party to attend hours later and still received compliments. The day of the wedding my make up was even better. My friends and Mom also had their make-up done the morning of the wedding and looked amazing! Everyone was so happy with their look, which is a huge relief. Sarah also offers make up classes where she can teach you how to use her techniques at home – we all are signing up as a group. My coordinator told me that choosing the best vendors is crucial to your day. Sarah is the absolute best!

e trial and on the wedding day and make sure that everything is perfect to your liking. I messaged several makeup artists when looking at their work and Sarah's stuck out to me. I messaged her with a few other artists and Sarah was the only one who replied back to me. That shows that she cares about her clientele and is super dependable and responsible. She is truly amazing and made my whole bridal party & I feel like we were going to the Met Gala walking on the red carpet. She is truly the best. Book her and I promise you won't be disappointed. She showed up at 6 am sharp for glam and she was there a quarter til 6 and it was raining cats and dogs! She goes out of her way for her clients and if I could give her 1,000 stars I definitely would.

l, Sarah was very attentive and thoughtful about choosing makeup shades and products that matched my skin's needs. On wedding day - that was no exception! She listened to what I thought had gone well with the trial and what I thought needed to be adjusted. As a result, my airbrush and makeup stayed on for almost 15 hours!! In 96 degree temperatures, for two hours while taking pictures! Chloe came to help Sarah on my wedding day and she was absolutely amazing as well. Couldn't recommend Sarah and her team more!

She listened to what I was wanting while also knowing what would look best on everyone. Everyone in my bridal party could not be more pleased with how our makeup turned out!
Sarah was a fantastic makeup artist! She did makeup for myself and 5 bridesmaids and went above and beyond for all of us. All our makeup was stunning and lasted the entire day.
