Ten out of five stars for Christine!! I found NOLA Bridal Artistry online and really loved the pictures I saw of Christine's work. What also really impressed me were all of the positive comments about how sweet Christine is and what a joy she... was for people to work with. She agreed to do my hair and makeup on two days - one for our courthouse ceremony and one for our nighttime reception - with two totally different styles, and I truly couldn't have been more pleased with the results. From our first email, Christine was kind, responsive, thoughtful, and had just a great overall positive energy that I really enjoyed being around. For our ceremony, she styled my hair in beautiful loose curls (which actually stayed!) with daytime makeup that looked super healthy, natural, and pretty in the few pictures I've seen. For our reception, she put my hair in the most gorgeous, voluminous, stunning low updo, which complemented my dress and super hot smokey eye sexy makeup. Both looks were perfect and spending both mornings getting ready with Christine was perfect. I felt like my super talented friend was getting me ready! She also did my mom's hair and makeup on the reception day, and my mom looked and felt like an absolute bombshell. I cannot tell y'all how many compliments we both got and how beautiful everyone said we looked. So many people called me a Hollywood starlet, which is something I've never heard in my entire life!! But I sure felt like one. You cannot go wrong with Christine. She was open to hearing my suggestions and ideas on how I'd like to look, and of course she used her expertise to put something gorgeous together. Even as we were getting ready, if there was something I was uncomfortable with, she was so open to hearing it! I can't wait to have a another special event to attend so I can call Christine and feel like royalty :) Recommend without any reservations at all. Thank you NOLA Bridal Artistry and Christine for putting your very special touch on my wedding week!!
