Kristi and her team are amazing. I originally booked with Kristi for my wedding day hair based on a recommendation from a friend who had used her for her wedding. Then once the stress of planning our NJ wedding from out of state set in, I also booked with Kristi for wedding day coordination.
If you can book with Kristi for your hair, DO IT! At my trial Kristi gave me some recommendations for my remaining haircuts and color before the wedding day, which really made all the difference when it came to the day of. Kristi did my hair and 5 others and everyone’s hair looked amazing and held up well throughout the night. I had done an updo which didn’t start falling out until about 1am after a full night of dancing and even some crowd surfing.
The 2 months leading up to our wedding we worked with Alexis, who seriously took the weight of finalizing our details off our shoulders. She was in contact with all of our vendors and even made recommendations for last minute vendors that we wanted to look into. She made a BEAUTIFUL timeline for the day of that consisted of EVERYTHING. Alexis really made those final 2 months as stress free as possible.
On the day of our wedding we worked with Erica and Shannon who were part of the dream team that made our day perfect.
Erica having experience in wedding day beauty saved the day on multiple occasions. She was able to help some of the bridesmaids who had issues with their lashes after our makeup artist had left. And she was always ready to help me when I needed any touchups done throughout the night.
Shannon was amazing helping us out during our portraits, which happened to be outside on one of the colder December days. Carrying my flowers, fluffing my train to perfection, tying the bows on my flats multiple times as they came undone, she helped make sure pictures went as smoothly as possible.
If there were any issues on our wedding day, I didn’t hear anything about it and I’m sure I have Erica and Shannon to thank for that. We were truly got to enjoy every moment of our day.

I could never recommend Kristi & her team enough. From the first time I met Kristi, I felt so confident in her skills and judgement. On my trial day, Kristi and Diana (makeup) did such an amazing job. It was such an awesome experience. I tried out an updo for my trial, but let Kristi know I was considering a down hairstyle for wedding day, so Kristi color matched my hair in case I decided to rent extensions through my package. Kristi and Diana were so helpful on wedding day. They listened to what my mom and bridesmaids were hoping for— looking at their inspiration photos taking the time to ask questions to make sure they got exactly what they were envisioning. Not only did all my girls get exactly what they were hoping for, their hair and makeup stayed PERFECTLY all night long. Ultimately, on wedding day I went with a down style and the extensions Kristi brought were flawless. They blended into my hair so perfectly. I also tweaked my makeup a bit from my trial because I decided I wanted more “full glam” and Diana delivered. I cannot get over how beautiful Kristi and Diana made me feel and look on my wedding day.
I could never thank them enough or recommend them enough!

Makeup: Michelle brought such a calm, kind energy to the day that I was so appreciative of. She listened attentively to make sure she understood exactly what I wanted for my look, and nailed it, even when I did not do a great job at describing what I wanted. The makeup made me feel so beautiful and lasted all day and night.
Hair: Erica added such a fun and upbeat energy to the bridal suite! When I had concerns about the hair trial, and wanted to make some changes on the day of, she listened patiently and made sure I was happy with the end result. It was exactly what I had envisioned!
Michelle and Erica were professional and made sure the hair and makeup of every person in the bridal party was complete in a timely manner, at the same time, making everyone feel stunning and confident. I truly felt so perfect and am so grateful to them. I would highly recommend Michelle and Erica for any special occasion!

Kristi & her team are absolutely AMAZING, Kristi is very responsive, so easy to work with, & very organized. I loved my trial but ended up doing a different hair style & Cheyane was so accommodating & made my hair wedding dreams come true. Cheyane was AMAZING, I loved my hair SO MUCH, it stayed the whole night, she was so attentive w/the details, it looked gorgeous//flawless!! Jackie was also SO FUN, & SO GREAT!! All of my bridesmaids hair looked amazing & everyone was raving about it. I wish I could give them 10000+ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️’s bc they rocked it

Kristi was fantastic with communication and so on top of it. She came up with a whole timeline for me and was patient when we changed it various times. While I loved how my makeup came out day of, I was not happy at my makeup trial. Joia was my artist and I just wasn't loving her work, which did cause some stress leading up to the wedding. That said, she was very kind and willing to start over multiple times until I felt better about it, which I really appreciated. She listened to my critiques and had notes with her at the wedding and I was much happier day of. Erica did my hair and we changed the style slightly day of and I was really happy with how it came out. We also had Asha, Cheyane, and Diana -- the entire team was great, so timely, and very professional and my girls loved how they looked and couldn't stop complimenting their work.

Verve was amazing to work with! The owner, Kristi, is so friendly and helpful - she has a great response time and works to accommodate your needs. We had Diana, Erica and Jackie for our day and only have great things to say. Everyone looked beautiful while still looking true to themselves. I’ve been in a few bridal parties that used Verve and knew long before I was engaged I’d want to use them when it was our time. Highly recommend using Verve for your big day, you will not be disappointed!

Highly recommend Verve for both hair and makeup! Michelle is the BEST makeup artist I've ever worked with! She nailed my trial and wedding day makeup and it lasted all day/night long (same with my bridesmaids). She is talented, efficient, and so kind! Erica did my hair and I absolutely loved it, and it also lasted all day - which is impressive as I have very straight hair! Erica was able to perfectly bring my vision to life, and she was so fun to be with. Lastly shout out to Angela for hair - all my bridesmaids raved about her and they received compliments all day!

Amazing for big groups! I had a bridal party of 11, and 14 women total to get ready in under 4 hours. Kristi and her team were highly efficient, on schedule, and did beautiful work. My curled half up hair stayed until the end of the day AFTER my wedding. Leading up to the wedding, Kristi's communication was unmatched. She answered emails faster than any one I have ever worked with, but more importantly, was accommodating and helpful. She also does day-of-coordinating services on the side, and as a result, understands how important it is to have everyone done when the photographer arrives. Highly recommend!

I couldn’t be happier with the makeup services from Verve Makeup for my wedding! Kristi, the owner, was fantastic from the start—she was so responsive and made me feel confident in her team's abilities.
A special shoutout to Diana and Asha, who did an incredible job with my makeup and the makeup of my bridal party. They are true artists! They tailored each look perfectly, ensuring everyone felt beautiful and confident.
The makeup lasted all day and night, even through all the dancing and emotions! I received countless compliments on my look, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Verve Makeup, for making me feel like a queen on my special day! Highly recommend!

I can't rave enough about our hair and makeup team from Verve on Location! From the very first interaction, Kristi, our main point of contact and my hairstylist, made the entire experience so enjoyable and stress-free. She took the time to understand my vision and delivered beyond my wildest dreams. I have never looked or felt more beautiful!
On the big day, Kristi and her team worked their magic, and the results were absolutely incredible. They had such a positive vibe and made getting ready a blast! Everyone felt stunning, and it was amazing to see how much everyone genuinely loved their hair and makeup. They took care of every detail and ensured that we all felt our absolute best.
I can’t thank Kristi and the Verve team enough for making me feel like a true bride on my special day. If you’re looking for a talented and professional team to help you shine on your wedding day, look no further—Verve on Location is the way to go!

The whole Verve team was absolutely spectacular! Unbelievably communicative and made any logistics and the process so much easier. The glam for me (the bride), my mom and MIL, bridesmaids and flower girl was excellent. Everyone was glowing and got the exact looks they wanted while also getting i formed direction from the stylists. I had several naturally curly haired ladies in my party and Verve was able to work with all hair patterns seamlessly.
Erica did my hair and did an outstanding job at my trial and did an even better job taking my feedback and correcting it. Michelle did my makeup and helped enhance my natural features so well. Both stylists/artists are so great at what they do and I couldn’t have been in better hands. Any inspo photo you have they will emulate and make even better!
And an added bonus is that all the ladies are so fun and supportive to have with you the morning of your big day! They are a calming presence and the exact kind of people you want with you the morning of your wedding.
Definitely the easiest vendor to work with!

I highly recommend Verve! We had Kristi, Asha, Joia, and Angela for hair and make-up for about 11 people. They were all specular and so amazing!
My mom and I both went for trials with Kristi and Asha. I am not very into hair and make-up things, and therefore, not confident when it came to asking what I wanted or needed. Kristi and Asha were both so unbelievably kind and helpful. They really took the time to understand my personality and helped guide me to what fit me.
One of the most impressive things about Kristi was how incredible of an artist she is and how great she is at reading people and understanding their “vibe”. The day of the wedding, I decided to go with an up-do despite doing half up/half down at the trial. As I rarely get my hair done, I had a really hard time explaining what I wanted despite looking through and showing inspo pics. I tried to explain the vibe I wanted and components of what I did/didn’t want, but if I’m being 100% honest, I wasn’t really sure what I wanted! Despite this, Kristi did my hair perfectly! She understood what I was going for (even when I didn’t) and really did an incredible job! I appreciated how she listened to my rambling thoughts and I’m so happy I trusted her incredible judgement and skills. Similarly with Asha, I trusted her judgement and I was so happy with my make-up I got teary-eyed (and then immediately tried to stop so I wouldn’t ruin my make up!!!)
The bridesmaids and my VIPs all looked and felt amazing. One of my bridesmaids asked for an up-do even though the two last wedding she was in (not by Verve), her up-dos fell out before the ceremony; she was SO happy that Verve killed it and she had a beautiful up-do all night Kristi and Angela made sure everyone’s hair stayed perfectly!!! I really appreciate how the entire Verve team was so kind and sweet with my little flower girl too.
Regarding logistics and communication, the team was very punctual and very efficient - we actually ran early!!! I enjoyed not having worry about timing since the team was a well-oiled system. Kristi was always super responsive and kind via email - she answered my rambly questions with such kindness that I truly appreciated!

I got married August 2024. I had been in a wedding party and the amazing ladies from Verve did our hair and makeup. I am usually so picky with the way I look when I professionally get my makeup done because I am not typically a big makeup wearer but I LOVED my hair and makeup and knew I had to use them for my own wedding day.
I couldn't have asked for a better hair and makeup team. Tina did my makeup and I couldn't stop looking at myself in the mirror, the makeup was so beautiful and more importantly I still looked very much like myself. Erika was great at offering suggestions and feedback for mine, my bridesmaids, mother, mother in law, and aunts hair. We had such a fun morning getting ready with them!
I also hired Verve for content creation. This was last month of planning decision for me. Jenn did such a great job at capturing all our special moments throughout the day. We are so grateful she didn't miss any details and we have been continuing to relive our wedding day over and over for the past month and a half. We couldn't have been more pleased!

I cannot recommend Verve enough for wedding hair and makeup! From the moment I started working with them, I felt in great hands. Kristi, the owner, is incredibly organized and responsive, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. She’s not only professional but also genuinely friendly, which made working with her a pleasure. As a bride trying to book a million vendors, I truly appreciated that I was able to hired a 2-in-1 for hair and make up, and didn’t feel like I was sacrificing quality on either service.
After my trial, I decided to make a few changes to both my hair and makeup, and Kristi and her team were more than accommodating. They listened to my concerns and made the adjustments without hesitation, ensuring that everything was perfect for my big day.
On the day of the wedding, Erica, the makeup artist, made me feel absolutely beautiful while still looking like myself—a balance that was really important to me. Tina and Jennifer did a fantastic job as well, making sure all my bridesmaids, my mother, and my mother-in-law looked stunning. Everyone’s hair and makeup lasted all day, even through the dancing and festivities!
Thank you to the entire team at Verve for helping make my wedding day so special. I highly recommend them to any bride looking for a talented, professional, and friendly hair and makeup team!

I booked Verve on Location for my August 2024 wedding and could not be more thrilled with my decision. The team ( Erica, Kristi, and Diana) helped me, my mom, 5 bridesmaids, and my future mother-in-law all look and feel our most beautiful! The girls had various wants/needs, hair textures, and comfortability with makeup. Krisit and her team listened to each girl individually and helped them look and feel their best-even during a rainy and humid summer day! Krisit answered all my crazy emails rapidly and never batted an eye when I had feedback or changed my hairstyle after my trial. Krisit made our schedule and it was amazing to have her put that information together, and then also stick to it! What a huge help. Diana stayed on with me for luxury touch ups and was such a BLESSING! Not only did she help touch me up after crying during my first look and vows as well as right before I walked down the aisle so I looked my absolute best, she was just a wonderful human to be around, helping take some behind the scenes pics and fixing my dress as we navigated puddles! Look no further and book with these ladies (and pay for the luxury touch ups!) you will want it!!!!

Leading up to the wedding, Kristi was extremely responsive and accommodating with answering questions, scheduling trials, and ordering extra extensions when needed. When wedding day arrived, Asha, Angela, and Jessica, absolutely crushed it. They all arrived right on time, worked so efficiently, and made sure everyone looked and felt beautiful.

Verve did my hair for my wedding and absolutely nailed it!! They were very communicative from the moment I reached out to them to see if they were available. When I met my makeup artist and my hair stylist for my hair and makeup trial and talked with both of them and showed them what I was thinking I knew I was going to be in good hands. As a girl who does not wear a lot of makeup my makeup artist made me feel comfortable and kept it natural looking while still making me look and feel beautiful.
My hair stylist made me feel at ease and showed me she was going to be able to execute the hair do of my dreams at my trial and she did it again on my wedding day. She incorporated the clip I had bought for my hair beautifully and did my hair so that my veil would be able to sit nicely. She was calm and comfortable and made me feel like a princess on my special day. I highly, highly recommend using Verve and their team of stylists for your bridal glam team!!

Kristi is a rockstar! She was SO patient with me when I went in for my trial and didn't love the first hairstyle I chose (on me). We made some tweaks and found the perfect style for my big day!
Day of Kristi was SO professional and ALL my girls loved their hair. All styles lasted through the intense heat we had the day of my wedding. I cannot recommend Kristi enough- she is so bubbly. friendly, and such a hard worker. She did hair for all 7 of us by herself with time to spare!
Trust that you are in good hands when you book with Kristi. Wedding planning is stressful but booking professional vendors is KEY to ensuring everything goes smooth day of.

Kristi and the team were amazing. Kristi provided great guidance on what to prepare for the day of the wedding since it would be a long, hot day. I appreciate Kristi's guidance and recommending a trial to understand how my hair and face would cooperate the day of the wedding. I had my hair and makeup trial and felt amazing but needed a few tweaks for the day of the wedding. The day of the wedding, Kristi and team perfected my look!!

Kristi and the team at Verve are absolutely fantastic! I can’t recommend them enough. For my wedding, I worked with Kristi and Erica for hair and Diana for make up, who were all amazing to work with. Erica was especially great with my mom and mother in law who don’t get their hair done often. Everyone’s hair and make up looked absolutely stunning and lasted all night long! We were also done ahead of schedule!

Hair is something I was so anxious to decide on as a Bride, but Verve made me feel so comfortable and confident! I booked Verve for my December 2023 wedding, and I would recommend them to all NEW JERSEY Brides to Be for the wedding hair of their dreams! I completed my hair trial with one vision in mind and of course, the week of my wedding I did change my mind – however, the Verve team didn’t even bat an eye and were extremely flexible to change my hair style the day of my wedding! I have never felt so beautiful then I did on my wedding day and a lot of that has to do with the Verve Hair Stylist team. I provided my own extensions, and they were flawlessly clipped in, I didn’t lose any hair all day! I wore my hair down for 12+ hours and the style and curls all stayed! I was amazed! As someone with naturally thin hair I was nervous to do an all down style, but Verve must have sprayed some magic hair spray in because up until he moment I fell asleep, I still had the hair of a princess! Verve also offers a variety of other services, Makeup, Day of Planning, Honeymoon Planning, etc. Although I didn’t utilize these services, now that I had such a positive experience, I wish I had! In addition to my hair, Verve also made all the hair of my bridesmaids and Mother of the Bride look incredible and all these women wanted very different styles and 100% of them looked amazing and lasted ALL DAY and ALL NIGHT! If you are considering booking Verve for your Hair on your wedding day, I 100% say you do!

Kristi and her entire team has been AMAZING! She guided me on my entire hair journey and prep up until the wedding day! She was quick to respond and just super friendly and helpful. We shared so many laughs and jokes. It was like having a best friend do your hair, and her entire team was like this. She supported me on the day of my shower and rehearsal dinner as well. The day of, she was on time and made every girl's hair perfect! My hair and theirs lasted all night long! We stayed on schedule and actually finished early! It was just wonderful having Kristi and her team. I felt so confident and at ease knowing she was there for my big day! Highly recommend!

I am SO happy that I chose Verve on Location. Kristi and her team did such an amazing job! I had 8 bridesmaids, 2 moms and myself for both hair and makeup services. They all arrived on time and did such a great job at keeping us on track. All of my girls looked absolutely stunning and received so many compliments. For myself, I could not be happier!! I had a few tweaks from my trial to the day of and both Kristi and Tina (makeup) crushed it. My hair and makeup lasted ALL day and night. Most importantly - my makeup lasted through all of the tears I had! I would highly recommend Verve on Location to anyone!

Angela, Danielle, Diana, and Joia are all incredible! They were the hair and makeup artists for my wedding and I could not be happier with with the work they did on me, my girls, my mom, and my mother-in-law. They were so sweet, on-time, professional, and a joy to be around all morning. My hair held up through the night and my makeup still looked fresh 12 hours later. The communication of Kristi and her team at Verve is also excellent! I highly recommend booking them.

Kristi is an absolute magician and my own personal fairy godmother. We go back 16 years and I could not imagine anyone else doing my hair for my big day. She is the only person I would trust to do my hair. She is an amazing person and so talented. She did my hair and my sister-in-laws and we both were beyond thrilled with the end results. Erica did my makeup and she was fabulous as well. They make a wonderful duo :) Thank you ladies for being part of my glam squad.

The work done by Kristi and her team (Danielle & Andrea) speaks for itself!! They were amazing to work with on my wedding day and gave all my girls exactly what they asked for. Kristi worked with me for an extended hair trial on 2 different styles that turned out absolutely gorgeous. Come wedding day, I decided to change my hair due to alterations in the dress and Kristi absolutely rolled with it and KILLED my bun. I was blown away by her talent. She stayed with us through the end of the ceremony for touch ups, which was such a nice addition and worth the cost. She and I were also alone in the bridal suite prior to walking down the aisle and she really calmed my nerves. I cannot recommend Kristi and her team enough and hope we get to work together in the future!

Love love loved Kristi! I had an idea for my trial (which Kristi executed perfectly) and then on the day of my wedding, I felt that it didn't really match the vibe of my gown, which I thought a more classic look suited better, so we completely switched gears. I was confident in her work and she was so sweet and open to going with it - she really made me feel so beautiful! I danced literally the whole night and my hair stayed just as it did for our first look. Thank you so much Kristi!!

Kristi is absolutely AMAZING! The best in the game when it comes to wedding hair! I have enjoyed every moment working with her leading up to our big day. She allowed myself, my mom, and MIL to have our trials all done together so that we could make a whole day out of it and even made time for my mom to have a second trial! She took my inspo and vision and created exactly what I asked for and even a few changes day of! Kristi and her team were such a positive, kind, and warm presence on our wedding day! I wanted to be relaxed while getting ready and she helped me do just that! Not to mention-- I had 10 total people getting hair done-- Kristi and her team had us ready between 9am-12pm! Simply AMAZING! You absolutely need Verve for your wedding hair! 10000/10!!

I cannot get over how great of a job the Verve team did on our wedding day!! I was nervous when choosing my beauty team as I haven't always liked how my professional hair and makeup has turned out in friends' past weddings. Kristi and Asha made me feel SO comfortable right away and captured exactly what I wanted my look to be at both the trial and the day of the wedding (super soft and natural, but still glamorous at the same time). They took pictures at my trial and made tweaks to my look on the wedding day to make it absolutely perfect! Asha even researched the makeup she used on me to make sure it was gluten free (I have celiac and was nervous about getting sick from the lipstick!) and her and Kristi even brought me a special lip gloss to use and keep on the day of. My entire bridal party and mom / MIL looked absolutely STUNNING thanks to Kristi, Asha, Danielle, and Erica. The ladies were so lovely to chat with and super efficient, too -- we had time to relax after getting ready, which was great to keep the morning stress free :) As a bride, you want to make sure you and your people are looking and feeling their absolute best on your big day. This was made possible by the Verve team -- I'd highly recommend booking them for your wedding or events!!

I absolutely LOVED Kristi! From the beginning she was great at communicating with me and listened to everything I had asked for. When I did my trial, I wasn’t exactly in love with how tight the curls were and I felt my make up was a bit orange. I told her and she made a note for the day of the wedding. Both Kristi and Stephanie made the changes I had asked for and I loved my final look!! When I looked in the mirror, I actually felt like a bride! It also held up all day and even managed to stay in place despite me sweating and crying lol. They also did an amazing job for my bridesmaids and family, everyone loved how it came out! Very professional, on time and so kind!

I wish I could give Verve 100 stars! I had the best experience working with Kristi and her team. Kristi was extremely responsive, clear, and organized throughout the entire process - she answered all of my (many!) emails quickly, no matter how silly or extraneous. My wedding day HMU team was absolutely top notch (Erica, Asha, and Jackie). They were SO fun to have in the bridal suite all morning, and really helped to bring the energy and excitement into the day. My bridal party was thrilled with how their services came out and of course so was I. We hired Erica to stay for touch up services up until my ceremony began and it was the BEST decision! Not only did she tend to all of us with care and detail, but she went above and beyond - my wedding day was especially frigid and Erica helped me stay warm by carrying my moms big coat and helping me take it on and off. She really was such a massive help. I wish I could redo my wedding day all over again with the same Verve team. Thank you to Kristi and her entire team for helping us feel like royalty!

We had the pleasure of working with Verve on Demand for our wedding, and they were nothing short of fantastic. Cheyane handled the hair, Michelle took care of makeup, and Kristi was our go-to point of contact. All three women were responsive, organized, and extremely talented.
From the get-go, they were punctual and stuck to the schedule, ensuring that everyone was ready on time. What I particularly appreciated was their ability to listen to requests and offer valuable feedback. This made us feel confident that we were in good hands. The hair and makeup lasted through a long day—from pre-ceremony photo shoots all the way to the reception.
When it comes to pricing, they offer reasonable rates compared to other businesses in the industry. One piece of advice I'd like to offer is to invest in a trial appointment. Meeting the artists beforehand and taking pictures allowed us to see how everything would wear, making the day-of process run a lot smoother.
Highly recommend Verve on Demand for anyone in need of top-notch hair and makeup services. They truly know how to make you look your best on one of the most important days of your life.

As someone who does not know much about makeup, I wanted a natural glam look and she did an amazing job accomplishing just that. For the day of the wedding, there were a few minor things I wanted to change and Diana was extremely accommodating. Not to mention, Diana and Joia were so sweet, easy to talk to, and made the morning run smoothly. I am so grateful that I worked with the Verve team to create my perfect wedding makeup look!

The Verve team my hair and make up on 9/22/23 at Crystal Plaza..I can’t say enough about the Verve team, my entire bridal party and myself absolutely loved our hair and make up. Everyone was able to get done exactly what they wanted and feel confident and look beautiful! Not to mention hair and make up stayed in place the whole night. Kristi did my hair and after having my trial I made some last minute changes on wedding day and she killed it! Angela did the rest of the bridal party and did such an amazing job with a variety of styles and hair types. Diana did some of the bridal party and make up and everyone looked stunning! After a last minute emergency Asha came to do my make up and I was very nervous since we did not have a trial, Asha was so kind and understanding, eased my nerves and left me looking and feeling better than my trial! I felt flawless! She also did my mom and a few bridal party members and left them feeling and looking beautiful as well! Everyone was so so nice and it was an amazing experience, Kristi was so easy to work with throughout the whole process!

I booked Verve for hair since their photos showed they could do both elegant updos and beautiful down styles. Kristi was very helpful in answering my questions and more professional than other hair stylists I reached out to. Cheyanne did my hair trial and hair the day of and she was absolutely incredible. I liked my hair trial at the studio, but the more I sat with it the more I didn't like it and it gave me a lot of stress. My fiancé encouraged me to reach out about scheduling a new hair trial, so I did, and I was so, so glad I did! Cheyanne helped me figure out what I liked about the first style and what I didn't and the second look was so much more me and exactly what I wanted. I did end up purchasing the hair extensions, which made the style hold up even more so I highly recommend going for them. Overall, working with Verve was an awesome experience!
