Ashely was recommended to me by a few friends who had used her services for their own weddings. Ashley was in regular communication and was super flexible, especially with my trial...
, which I needed to reschedule a couple of times. She made me feel at ease in her chair and made sure to listen to what I was looking for with my hair and makeup. When I changed my mind about my hair, she was supportive. On my wedding day, Ashley and her assistant arrived right on time, and they were very organized getting us ready. The day was super hot and we were outside the whole time, and my makeup held up all day. I loved my hair and my makeup, and Ashley made me look exactly like I envisioned. My bridal party had nothing but wonderful things to say, and we all got many compliments throughout the day on our hair and makeup. I would highly recommend Sweet Violets Weddings for anyone looking for a hair and makeup artist who will come to you and make you feel great on your wedding day.
Above and beyond the best wedding investment I made! I hired Ashley for (1) bridal party hair and makeup and (2) day of wedding coordination.
Please note a couple months before t...
he wedding, Ashley performs a hair and makeup test for the bride to determine what she likes or doesn’t like. For hair and makeup, my bridal party still raves about Ashley and her team. I did not have a specific style for my wedding, but asked my bridesmaids to choose a look that they were comfortable with. My bridesmaids and myself loved Ashley’s airbrush makeup technique, and her and her team’s execution of hair designs. Before we left for the ceremony, Ashley performed final touchups to ensure everything was perfect. It was also so sweet to see Ashley and her team listen to the flower girls as they described what hairstyles they wanted. This really made the day so much more magical for each flower girl. FYI – Ashley is amazing with children, and my flower girls were following her around all day! They still talk about the cool girl with the purple hair!
For day of coordination, Ashley provided an overview of what the wedding day encompassed and asked what my expectations were. She was in contact with all my vendors to ensure there was no oversight on the day of. She picked up the wedding cake and the groomsmen suits so I did not have to worry about that. Furthermore, she was crucial at my dress rehearsal and ensured that any issues I had were handled immediately. While Ashley was preparing the bridal party with hair and makeup, her colleague, Angie, was setting up the venue. Angie was absolutely amazing! Normally, I am very hands-on but I had no apprehension about Angie’s performance at our reception venue. Angie set up (1) the “Kids Only” section of crayons and coloring books and comics, (2) centerpieces, menus and wedding favors at each table, (3) seating chart, (4) wedding cake, (5) guestbook/postcards for well wishes as well as candles and other knickknacks we had. Ashley showed me photos of the venue so I could see and approved of how it looked before the guests arrived. Everyone was so impressed with how our venue turned out!
We did not have a videographer, but Ashley took several videos of my wedding day that I will cherish including my husband’s toast to me. My husband and I come from large families, and Ashley helped coordinate our combined family photo with the photographer. She made sure everything was perfect before she left the venue.
Also, it is important to note that our wedding ran on time. My bridal party and myself were able to sit down and have lunch at our hotel before the photographer came. The groomsmen also could not believe how relaxed the day was. Ashley is absolutely wonderful, and to any bride looking for a non-stressful wedding day – Ashley is the best and most perfect choice you can make!
Ashley was able to get all 7 of us ladies looking amazing. She was even able to squeeze in my officiant's hair last minute. She is a joy to be around, and I felt so beautiful. ...
My trial looked great, but I looked even better the day of!
Where do I even begin!? Ashley and her assistant made me and my entire bridal party not only look beautiful, but FEEL beautiful for my big day. The hair, the make up - it was all p...
erfect and absolutely stunning! And we received compliments all night!! I am so happy with how everything turned out and can’t rave about Sweet Violets enough! I loved working with Ashley and have recommended her to future brides!!
Ashley did an amazing job on my wedding hair and makeup! I recommend her without any hesitation – she was fabulous! I had trouble finding a stylist/makeup artist who was the right ...
fit. (I wanted someone who was down to earth - and someone who didn’t have terrifying “before and after” photos or crazy minimum requirements.) After many phone calls I asked my Facebook friends for help. Someone I went to college recommended Ashley. I viewed her portfolio, loved it, and decided to schedule a trial. From the beginning, Ashley was extremely communicative and responded to my messages quickly. When I met her for the trial, it was a fun and easygoing experience, unlike many other wedding-related things which created stress. I brought one of my bridesmaids, and we all chatted while Ashley worked. I was surprised how little I had to tell her for her to know what I was envisioning – she knows what she’s doing!
On my wedding day, Ashley did my hair and makeup, and Ashely and her assistant Maggie worked together to do the hair and makeup of my bridal party, mom, and sister. Though we started very early, the whole morning was so relaxing and fun. It was like having extra friends in the room rather than two stranger vendors. They managed the time well, and no one felt rushed. What I liked most was that everyone walked out feeling beautiful and like themselves. My hair and makeup stayed all day – throughout the night people asked me how my hair was staying so perfectly in place. You can tell from photos that Ashley’s work is excellent. Please let me speak for her client service, professionalism, and sweet personality. I made the right choice by having Sweet Violets be a part of my day. Thank you, Ashley for glamming all of us up and making us feel beautiful!
I have nothing but great things to say about Sweet Violets Wedding! Ashley did the makeup for myself, my four bridesmaids, and my mother and we were all STUNNED by her incredible s...
kills as we were all continually complimented on our makeup before and after the wedding ceremony. She did SUCH a beautiful job! I wiped away many happy tears throughout the night and my makeup never once smeared or smudged! Nor did I even need a touch-up! I am so happy with how it turned out I really cannot thank Ashley enough. I am most definitely going to spread the word about Sweet Violets Wedding Artistry and Consulting and recommend her to anyone that is looking for makeup services! Ashley, your love and passion for makeup truly shows in your work! Thanks again for being so kind and easy to work with, especially in the midst of crazy wedding planning! Xo, Tara O'Malley
