artists did well to listen to each person and apply what they wanted for their look. I felt my makeup looked so natural, and like me. I am always worried to have cakey foundation, but my makeup artist was flawless. My favorite makeup done on my wedding day.

I seriously cannot rave enough about Studio Bride St. Louis. Their whole team was professional and very responsive throughout the booking process and every step of the way leading ...
up to our wedding. Their pricing is very reasonable for the market. I was able to work with my requested hair artist, Sarah, and she created the wedding hair of my dreams. Kayla did an amazing job with my glam - she uses airbrush foundation, and everything stayed remarkably perfect despite many many tears throughout the day. My whole look lasted well into the early hours of the next day. All of my bridesmaids and my mom felt so beautiful. My husband even got his hair done for the first time and looked so handsome! After getting HMU for several other weddings as a bridesmaid, I can honestly say that the talent and quality of service you'll get with Studio Bride is unparalleled. This team is without a doubt the one that you need on your wedding day. They are fun and so kind, and I genuinely loved spending my morning getting ready with them. I cannot recommend enough!

I cannot say enough good things about Studio Bride! I had a hair and makeup trial with a different company just before my wedding and ultimately decided to go a different direction...
. So, eight weeks out from my wedding…I found myself without hair and makeup stylists. Within a 24-hour period after contacting them, we had already received a response from Studio Bride regarding their availability, rebooked with them, and had a trial on the schedule. I currently live in Kansas City while my wedding was being held in St. Louis. Studio Bride’s communication was extremely timely, and they were very flexible in finding a trial time that worked with my travel schedule. Given my previous trial experience and the short timeline, I was a little hesitant going into my second trial - Kayla immediately resolved any nerves I had! She was open, honest, and worked with me every step of the trial process to make sure my vision came to life. Not to mention that in the several times we communicated with each other leading up to the wedding, Kayla was so quick to respond and answer any questions I had.
On the wedding day itself, we had Kayla (makeup), Becca (hair and makeup), and Bailey (hair) with us. They arrived ahead of schedule (bright and early might I add), and we stayed ahead of schedule the WHOLE MORNING!! Not having to stress or rush around allowed us girls to enjoy the morning with each other and soak up every moment. Everyone looked absolutely stunning, and it was evident the girls were so happy with the way their hair and makeup turned out. I also received many compliments from wedding goers about how beautiful the bridal party looked. Studio Bride’s skill and attention to detail was nothing shy of amazing, as was their customer service. I cannot recommend them enough – thank you Studio Bride!!!!

She saw what I wanted and brought it to life through the hair and makeup for my wedding day. I wish everyone could have Cathee because that’s how amazing she is!

I could not have been more pleased with my experience with Studio Bride. I felt that their pricing was very reasonable given the range I received from other competitors. Their comm...
unication was great--prompt and helpful via email. Most importantly I was really looking for artists that wouldn't make me and the bridal party look overdone. Paul was our makeup artist and truly made everyone look like an elevated, enhanced natural version of themselves. Multiple people, including a guest who is a makeup artist/esthetician herself said my makeup was beautiful. My husband commented that I looked like myself, like an upgraded version of my usual makeup. The makeup lasted all day--seriously. We started at 7am and still looked great at 11. Paul made everyone feel beautiful, including our flower girl and junior bride who took approximately 1265 selfies because they loved how they looked, he offered makeup tips and talked about products, and really went above and beyond to offer suggestions on helping with outfits from his experience. Hannah was our hair stylist and somehow managed to act cool and composed even though her own wedding is a week away. Her personality was amazing. She offered suggestions but was able to invent styles based on comments from the bridal party on the spot. One member of the party has finer hair that typically doesn't hold a curl but her hair held through the whole day with Hannah's styling. Exceptional, professional service. Would absolutely hire again. My biggest tip would be to look beyond review websites at artist's work on Instagram or Facebook. That's what absolutely solidified it for me with Studio Bride.

I never wear makeup and haven't done anything with my hair in about a decade. I knew I needed absolute pros to do my hair/makeup, and all the ladies in my bridal party wanted their...
hair done also. I booked a hair & makeup trial for my mom and myself -- I was very glad I did. The look that I originally planned for my hair didn't really work on me, so Hannah and I came up with a new 'do (which included an impromptu haircut on the day of!) Ashley, my makeup artist, went through a couple different types of concealer before finding one that worked on me. Overall, as someone who never wears makeup, I didn't really "feel like me" on the wedding day, but the pictures look great! Hannah and Ashley were really nice and great to work with! My MOH had their hair up in a bun, and when it started to fall out after ~30 minutes, Hannah was on it! Fixed it right up! Everyone's hair and makeup stayed put throughout the whole wedding and we all looked gorgeous! Highly recommend!

ervices was totally in love with their makeup looks - the airbrush looked a bit heavy on some of the women, including me. I think I would have preferred more contouring, and perhaps no airbrush in retrospect. Overall, Studio Bride still a great option for both hair and makeup. I think just make sure you know exactly what you want and communicate clearly. Pictures always help!

We hired Studio Bride for our May 7th wedding at Hammock Beach Resort and they were simply amazing! We had Brittany for hair and Paige for makeup and they did a total of 11 people ...
of our wedding party! Brittany nailed my hair by the first trial and had everyone’s hair looking beautiful the day of the wedding. Paige was simply AMAZING and made my makeup and everyone else look stunning. Something that really stood out to me was towards the end of getting my makeup done I noticed a mark on my face that was unusual and I didn’t even have to say much to Paige she saw it right away and completely re did that side of my face and it ended up looking PERFECT! They’re very easy to work with and do not get offended if you want any changes or if you don’t like something which is really important to me. I felt like the most beautiful bride and they had a huge part of it! Also another big plus was EVERYONE in the bridal party loved their hair and makeup and had no complaints which has honestly never happened when I’ve been in other weddings. I highly recommend these ladies they really are very talented!
