Red Carpet Brides NYC

g! At my trials, I was adamant about having a very natural look on my wedding day, as I don't wear a lot of makeup on a daily basis and I feared that I wouldn't look like myself. As they said, they simply created "a glammed up version" of me. Christy picked up my extensions two weeks prior to the wedding to curl and set them and Tara went out of her way to purchase me the lip gloss she used at my trial so I could have it throughout the day to reapply. My wedding was in July so it was hot and both my hair and makeup stayed perfectly ALL DAY! Even after many hours and many outdoor pictures. Their team set up in the early morning and were able to do an additional 15 services for members of my family and bridal party. They were organized and friendly and we were even ready earlier than expected! I highly recommend Red Carpet Brides for event hair and makeup. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, and the pictures also showcase their excellent work. will definitely be using them again in the future!

as I! I can't recommend them enough!

ough good things about my experience and results...Tara and Alex are pros and aside from that just a pleasure to be around... They fostered such a calm and relaxing environment that we had so much fun and were stress free... We had hair and make-up done for bride (me), matron of honor and 11 year old bridesmaid...we all looked absolutely stunning! I have already recommended to all I know! Thanks again!

me calm and put the makeup on in steps so I could approve it at every step. And it was just amazing. Her colleagues did my friends' makeup and they were just as perfect. Highly, highly, highly recommended.

rk with. I love her!!!! The makeup came out fantastic...just the way we wanted it. She gets my highest recommendations Aileen

and was a joy to work with. When my wedding day arrived, Tara and her crew made the morning very stress free and enjoyable that I become less and less nervous as the morning progressed. There was eight of us total in my wedding party for makeup and hair and everything was timed to perfection. All my girls and I loved their hair and makeup and Tara and her crew truly listened to what each individual girl wanted. If you are looking for the best service/products used for your wedding, choose Red Carpet Brides. You won't be disappointed!

ier than expected) and did a great job on everybody, but they were really fun to hang out with all day! I didn't think about the size of space needed for 6 women to get their hair and make up done with a hair stylist, make artist and an assistant with all their gear, and unfortunately the hotel room was a little small but it didn't faze them and we made it work. It also helped that the outside facing wall of the room was all windows, so we had good light. My make-up looked great, from about 2:30PM when it went on to 1:30AM when I started taking it off. In fact, I still was removing eyeliner two days later. My hair was in an awesome updo with lots of pins, but it didn't hurt at all (a minor concern for me) and stayed up all night, with my birdcage veil still pinned on. Some of my bridesmaids had no idea what they wanted and came with vague ideas but Tara and her team worked with them and have them great looks. Everyone looked unique and true to their personality, which is exactly what I wanted. If I need professional hair and make up in the future, I would definitely use them again. They really added to the specialness and fun of the day.

Alex took a concept with my hair and turned it into a work of art, and Tara's makeup was flawless. Not only do they make you look gorgeous, but they make you laugh and feel stress free the entire time. To my fellow brides: BOOK THEM NOW!!! There are not enough positive things to say about Tara and the team!

or me to find, but once I met Christy, I knew I was in good hands!! She is incredibly talented and is able to translate ideas and pictures into a stunning look for you. She is a perfectionist and won't stop until every curl is pinned in the exact place. And on top of that, she is so much fun to work with. When I was up at 4am to start hair and makeup it was great to have someone there who was upbeat and excited, and Christy was definitely that!

makeup lasted all night and they made us girls feel like celebrities. We got compliments on our makeup all night. I would absolutely recommend Red Carpet Brides to any bride looking to feel beautiful on their special day.

ere were a few times I tried other hair dressers, but nobody even came close to Christy. Not to mention she is super easy going and listens to you and does exactly what you want! Not sure what you want?!? Well, Christy has a ton of awesome ideas for you. She also did all of my bridesmaids hair and they too loved her work and used her for their weddings!! Trust me no matter what the occasion you will not be disappointed!

others: her genuine skill and experience, her professionalism, and perhaps most importantly- her personality. First of all, Christi can work magic with hair. I have now seen Christi do hair on about 15 different people (from my best friend’s wedding and my own wedding) and not a single one of the hair styles looked the same. If you show her a picture or Pinterest pin, she is able to take exactly what you are looking for and give it to you, and in a reasonable amount of time. Throughout the whole process, I felt VERY comfortable with Christi because I could tell she has extensive experience styling hair of all kinds- long, short, straight, curly, up, down, thin, thick! Everyone who has had their hair done by Christi has been very happy with their hair at the start of the night, and more importantly- at the end too! She knows how to not only achieve the look you are going for, but how to make it stay all night. And I mean it- all night. Christi made me feel flawlessly beautiful on the day of my wedding and I can’t thank her enough for that! A moment that I think really captures Christi’s skill and professionalism was when we were at my best friend’s wedding the first time I met Christi (she did the bridal party's hair), and a fellow bridesmaid was about to get her hair styled. The bridesmaid pulled out a Pinterest picture and showed it to Christi. Christi took a minute to look at the picture, and then actually shared with the bridesmaid that she didn’t think the hair style was fitting for her. That conversation had the potential to go terribly wrong, leaving the bridesmaid feeling hurt and dissed. However, Christi very professionally shared her opinion that the updo wasn’t quite fitting for the bridesmaid, based on seeing her interact with the rest of the girls that morning and getting a sense for her personality. She asked the bridesmaid to trust her (who was quite skeptical of having someone touch her hair to begin with!) and let her use that picture as inspiration but to change it a little. The bridesmaid agreed, and we couldn’t have been more impressed! Christi was spot-on, and loosened up the up-do and made it have a more romantic feel. I feel like this is an perfect example of the experienced keen eye Christi has. When booking a stylist, sometimes you forget that you are not only hiring a SKILL, but also a person! A person that will be with you on the day of your wedding. It can be a stressful day, and if you have someone around who isn’t upbeat, optimistic, and flexible, the hours before your wedding can be ruined. I was actually ELATED when Christi showed up the morning of my wedding because I couldn’t wait to see her and talk to her! She is easygoing, funny, sweet, flexible, and light hearted- exactly the kind of person you want to be hanging out with the morning of your wedding! She made us all laugh and smile, and was also our DJ for the morning, offering to play music from her iPhone. Without hesitation, I recommend Red Carpet Brides NYC and Christi to EVERY future bride and bridesmaid. You will not only be happy with the final product, but you will be happy that you had Christi by your side on one of the most exciting and eventful days of your life! FYI- the $800 includes bridal hair, 7 bridesmaids, second stylist, and travel fee

lism just blew us all away. Especially 2 my sisters that wanted Very specific looks ;) Christi & Tara showed up early and stayed til after all our pictures (my request) to ensure that everyone was still looking perfect, which they were, after 2 hours in the 90 degree sun! BOOK THESE GIRLS!!

with Tara's amazing beauty lights and her makeup chair. They even had a wedding day playlist that had us all dancing and singing along. I had a total of 9 people for hair and makeup and they brought assistants Alex and Victor with them that kept us on time and moving right along. The makeup and hair was amazing, honeslty my bridesmaids and I still can't get over the only thing we had to touch up after close to 12 hours was our lipstick. Hair did not move either so worth the money to hire true proffesionals who know what they are doing. I can't say enough good things about them aside from to just hire them. You will not regret it. Thanks again ladies for making my day fantastic and calming my nerves. Cant wait to use your services for my baby shower in the future!

y expectations. They turned a potentially stressful experience into something fun and memorable. My bridesmaids looked like dolls, and I, the bride, (as told by many guests) looked as if I had landed out of a "fairy tale." I cannot recommend this duo enough. My wedding experience would not have been the same without them!

you calm, and does a fantastic job! I would highly recommend Christi for your wedding!

y nerves at ease. She was on time and very efficient; I don't know how she does it! I looked amazing on my special day and received numerous compliments. I felt like the most beautiful bride in the world. Christy is not just a hairstylist, she is an artist. She transforms an idea into a reality flawlessly and with without effort, so it seems! Throughout the entire process, she was available 24/7 for my bridal meltdowns, my second guessing and any and all changes I wanted to make. Christy is an amazing person in addition to the remarkable job she does professionally. She was able to meet all of my expectations and more! Me and my entire bridal party were all ready ahead of schedule and Christy stayed until the bitter end to make sure everything was perfect from pictures, the ceremony and into the reception. I wouldn't recommend anyone else. You won't be sorry with your decision to go with Christy and her staff at Red Carpet Brides NYC! This is a day I will remember and cherish for the rest of my life!

he girls. Made me feel very comfortable and calm. I would highly recommend them. They are a great team and made my day extra special. They do amazing work!

basis. A sorority sister recommended the girl who did her makeup for her wedding. I contacted her and it turned out she worked on a team with a hair person as well. So I set up a trial a year before my actual wedding date thinking I wanted to give myself time to do a few trials with other people. After Tara and Christy were done - I booked them on the spot! They were both so patient and did exactly what I asked them to and never pressured me into doing anything i wasn't comfortable with. On the day of my wedding, they arrived promptly to my hotel to start work on me, my MIL, and 6 of my bridesmaids. EVERYONE was thrilled with how they looked. All the make up and hair stayed great throughout the entire day (up to 14 hours for some of us). But the best part of it, was that we had fun. Tara and Christy were awesome, and so easy to get along with. It felt like one big slumber party. I honestly felt like a princess and I couldn't have asked for anything more. Thanks so much girls!

my family and friends for touch ups meeting us at Alpine Country Club later that evening. I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about them. Christy is the only person I have let touch my hair in forever and couldn't even think about letting someone else do my hair for my wedding day. Tara's makeup is perfection and it lasts ALL DAY LONG! She is now my makeup artist for all of the events I attend. I give them my highest regard as I even took the time to create this account to do this review for them haha! Love you girls you are the best!

I wanted for my wedding. Christi, Tara and their team are so talented!

g planning, they were always there to answer any questions that I had. On the wedding day, they were ready with assistants right when we needed them, and their presence made the morning so much fun! Everyone's hair and makeup looked GORGEOUS- so much so, that my mother-in-law didn't want to take hers off! I am so happy I used them both, and would definitely recommend them to all brides and bridal parties!

to follow up with her multiple times in order to get a response. She cancelled on me about 5 weeks before my wedding for personal reasons, but the way she handled it was completely unprofessional and unethical. Sure, my trial came out nice, but the negativity associated with using her is NOT worth it. I've never written a negative review before, but just want other brides to avoid dealing with her for their special day, when there are plenty of other amazing hair stylists out there!

uests. Christi knew what incorporated their ideas with her own twist and they all not only looked awesome but they each loved the finished look. Christi did an amazing job and was also fun to work with- felt like just another one of the girls while we were all getting ready. I would definitely recommend her for any special event!

tally use them again. I was extremely happy!

s at the ceremony and dancing at the reception). I have fine, stick straight hair but wanted Christy to style my hair down and curly-It stayed beautifully curled throughout the elements of the day (my hair never stays curly-I don't know how she did it!). Tara is exceptionally organized and professional and was quick to respond with all inquiries and last minute changes. Both Christy and Tara are true professionals, they arrived on time and had everyone finished with time to spare. Tara and Christy did hair and makeup on my entire bridal, MOB and myself and we all have never looked better. Your hair and makeup gives you the confidence you need on such an important day-it was extremely important to me to find the best and these girls are it. Highly recommended!

from them. All of my emails and calls were returned immediately and they were early! Everyone including myself looked amazing the best part is Tara's entire Chanel kit! Great makeup and application. If you are looking for amazingly talented, professional hair and makeup people in NYC this is your team. Thanks again so much for making my day so special! xoxox

ting our hair and make-up done. People are STILL talking about how gorgeous and unique my updo was on my wedding day! The ladies at Red Carpet Brides are true professionals who are passionate about their work, and care about their clients!

rried last Sept. and Tara went above and beyond to ensure my bridal party, mom and grandma all looked stunning- and the end result was beyond what I had imagined- I've never seen my friends and family look more beautiful! Tara is exceptional- she did my trial, took her time and walked me through color pallets and really listened to what I wanted an she got how I envisioned myself looking or my wedding day. And when the big day came- she rocked it- my makeup was perfection and lasted all day and all night- through tears, sweat, pictures and dancing- I loved it. Tara's makeup allowed me to be myself, just a little more fabulous and my husband said I've never looked better! My bridal party looked stunning and my pictures came out amazing- I couldn't be happier with the service and I highly recommend Red Carpet Brides. They demonstrate the utmost professionalism, help keep you calm and make you drop dead gorgeous!!!

NY to FL! She not only did my make-up, but also my mother's, my brides maid's, and my Maid of Honor's make-up, and we all looked FLAWLESS. I look at pictures, and feel like she helped me trick my husband into marrying me (j/k). I've never seen anyone make application of make-up look so effortless. She even did individual lashes on all four of us, and it was amazing!! We all looked and felt terrific, and she was on-site to make sure we stayed beautiful all day. I think the temperature was just under 100 degrees on my wedding day, but she made sure we looked refreshed and cool all day and long into the night. ALL of us were very impressed, including my husband, who couldn't get over her amazing accuracy and speed, when matching all of our skin-tones, evening us out, and giving us a natural look that was divinely seductive. Professional, high-quality, FAIRLY PRICED (hard to find!), and a pleasure to work with, Tara will now forever be my "go-to" girl for beauty, and I'd expect nothing less of the rest of her team at Red Carpet Brides NYC.

re efficient, put everyone at ease and listened to any and all concerns and suggestions. Most importantly - we all looked fabulous for my big day!

sional, punctual, and as a person who gets their make up done frequently, I can't think of another artist who did my makeup better. In addition, one of my main concerns on my wedding day was my make up staying put; due to the salon I was getting ready at and the location of my wedding, my make up needed to be done in the am while my ceremony was is the evening- my make up did not come off until I washed my face after my wedding. Would 100% recommend!!!

regretted my decision and quickly asked them if they could fit me in. The assured me there was enough time. I DID NOT want to be the one who wasn't getting glammed up by these girls. My hair and makeup were PERFECT. I have some horror stories from letting other hair and makeup work on me which I was horrified in the results. I am hoping to be engaged within the next year (fingers crossed :) ) and Tara and Christy are going to be the first vendor I reach out to! I have to have them!!! I cant say enough good things about them cant wait for my turn! Not only are they super talented but their entire team is as well. So sweet and funny and totally listened to what everyone wanted!

prepping! They knew exactly how to achieve what my Giles and me asked for and if they did not have something during the trial they went out to get the props, makeup colors needed to achieve my special look. I highly recommend them and would use them again in the future for another event.

n and from the trial to the wedding day Tara and Christy did not disappoint! They listened carefully to what we wanted and spent the time making sure they got it right. The makeup and hair lasted all day/night and looked amazing. Very happy and would highly recommend!

y want/what looks good on them, and Tara knew exactly what to do! She asked me a lot of questions, gave great feedback and made me feel so comfortable and confident on a day that I was very nervous about! Tara is extremely professional and personable. My makeup lasted for the entire day (about 10 hours)...no touchups needed! I just got a preview from my photographers, and the makeup for my bridal party and I look AMAZING in my photos! You can tell that we all felt so beautiful from them, and I couldn't be happier with everything Tara did for us. She is an expert at her craft, and I can't thank her enough for the wonderful work she did!

o. 6 months later it's my wedding weekend and RCBNYC posted a cute message on facebook wishing me a happy almost wedding day! It was so sweet and I was really looking forward to hanging out with them because that's basically what we did while my girls and I got our makeup/hair done. We listed to music, chatted, and definitely had a few laughs. Christy does amazing things with hair and Tara with makeup. They are both so professional and everyone in my bridal party as well as myself looked FLAWLESS. The best part is everything stayed in place and at the end of the night I still looked like i did in the morning.

REALLY good at what they do. They made me look unbelievably GORGEOUS on my wedding day. During my hair/makeup trial both girls really listened to what I wanted my "LOOK" to be on my wedding day and they tried a couple different styles. The day of my wedding they both kept me calm and laughing. I look at pictures and I still cant believe how AMAZING my hair looked. I wore a half up look and my curls were done PERFECTLY! Tara also did my mom and one of my bridesmaids. All our makeup looked absolutely stunning. I would highly recommend these girls and would definately use them for future events!

r which is exactly what good make up should do. Plus they were punctual, professional, and fun! After such a fantastic experience I know I'm using them for my wedding next year and am looking for any excuse to need to get my make up professionally done by her! I highly recommend Red Carpet Brides to everyone in the NYC metro area!

tiful, I was so floored! I wouldn't of done anything differently Tara really made the day even more amazing. I'd recommend her to anyone who asked without a second thought or moments hesitation.

on The Knot and I was not happy with the outcome. They didn't listen to me or what I wanted they just kept telling me what I wanted. I was about to do it myself when I finally called one last company and spoke with Tara. I was immediately pleased when I saw myself after the trial and I am so happy I scheduled the trial for the day of my engagement shoot. I had a 12 person party and everyone was done on time and looked impeccable. If you are hard to please and want to look your best I would call this company. Their entire team is pretty amazing.

makeup and hair were perfect! Tara & Christy were such a blessing on my day they made me comfortable and actually calmed my wedding jitters on my day. My makeup was flawless and did not move the entire night, I actually fell asleep with my makeup on and I woke up looking the same. My curls lasted all night long as I danced. I would use them everyday if I could afford it. Thanks again girls you are amazing!

hrough the night with no need to touch up! An overall great experience- highly suggested!
