So let’s talk about Gina.
She is an absolute artist. I had a loose idea of what I wanted, and otherwise I said, “make me look hot!” and she sure nailed it!
Gina and her team came to our venue (which was quite a hike for them) and managed to ...do hair and make-up for myself (the bride), 8 bridesmaids, 2 flower girls, and 1 mom. Initially the girls that went earlier were worried about their hair & make-up staying flawless from the morning to the ceremony & photos, and then through the reception, but that was not an issue at all. First, before they left they made sure anyone that felt they needed a quick touch-up was taken care of. They were so wonderful with our flower girls who kept “needing” touch-ups (they were enjoying the pampering quite a bit!) But the truth is everyone stayed put together quite well – which amazes me because usually most of us can’t keep our hair from going all over the place within 5 minutes of leaving the house.
Gina did all of the make-up for the girls, and she takes such pride in her work. She made sure that every little detail was perfect, and made sure that everyone was confident in how they looked. All of the girls and the family members who were hanging around the house kept asking me, “where did you find them? They’re AMAZING!”
I wanted my hair down for part of the day and then pinned back up, so I hired Gina to stay on for a few extra hours. She was honestly so supportive and was a calming force for me that day. She was so patient and made sure I felt beautiful throughout. She even snapped some photos for us, and these were some of the first ones I saw from the day.
Gina and her team did great work and really went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt their absolute best that day.
