Ellie is amazing! She is so nice, has a warm and fun personality and is a great communicator. She did my hair and makeup for my wedding as well as for some of my wedding party. She gave me a beautiful updo that held up perfectly all day and night, even with lots of dancing and movement. She gave me a stunning light and natural makeup look that made me feel SO beautiful but felt like I wasn't wearing makeup at all, which is exactly what I wanted. She is so easy to work with and even helped put flowers in my hair and attach my veil on when asked. Highly recommend. Thank you Ellie!

Ellie is so phenomenal. She was the easiest to work with, helped with any and all questions and concerns I had, and just did an overall amazing job on my wedding make-up and hair when not even I was sure what I wanted. It was perfect.

Hi! I'm Ellie Nicole! I absolutely LOVE getting to be a part of a couple's wedding day. In fact, I love it so much that I decided to offer makeup, videography, AND photography services that way I get to do what I love and make the day so much easier for couples! Besides that, I also love to travel, dance, watch cooking shows to pretend I can cook, and collect rings!

I would recommend Ellie to anyone who needs someone to do their hair or makeup for any event! I believe she does photography too so she's just an ace of all trades! Ellie is super fair priced and should totally charge more for how amazing she is! She is so worth every penny!

od friend came to help me out with my big day! She can really manage the entire package in a good amount of time. My hair was exactly what I wanted it to look like and she has a gentle hand and worked well with my annoying fine hair lol. The pictures were absolutely gorgeous and even though I had no idea what I wanted them to be like, they ended up perfect to remember such a great day. She went the extra mile through and through and I wouldn't recommend anyone else. I truly wish I had other events I could have her services for because she's just amazing! Thank you Ellie!

my then fiancés story. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist. I hardly wear makeup and was super concerned that I’d feel really heavy my wedding day or would not look myself but she perfected the right amount. It seemed like a lot but felt so weightless and I have never felt more beautiful.

Working with Ellie was a fantastic experience. She helped me feel gorgeous on my wedding day. From the first time I spoke with her on the phone, I felt comfortable and confident in...

her. She didn't recommend changing my appearance like another artist did, and her pricing was EXTREMELY fair, if not budget-friendly, for a bride on a budget like I was. Ellie enthusiastically approached my requests and was a joy for my trial and wedding day. Her communication was consistent, and she hyped me up so much. Her conversations during my trial and wedding day were pleasant and fascinating, especially hearing about her travels. My bridesmaids loved her on my wedding day, and she kept things super fun! Ellie also does other work, such as photography and videography. I didn't book her for those, but from what I've seen on her social media, I will most likely book Ellie for my graduation photos. I wish I could continue to work with and enjoy Ellie. You won't regret your decision to book with her.

Response from MVP by Ellie Nicole on 04/24/2024

Oh my goodness Asheby!! The pleasure was absolutely all mine! I loved getting to know you ...

and your bridesmaids, you are all the sweetest! I'm still obsessed with the classic Hollywood look you went for and would absolutely LOVE to take your grad photos!
