I had an amazing experience with The Stylist Abroad! Ashley, the owner, was absolutely fantastic and was incredibly communicative for the entire process. She answered every single question right away, and gave so much insight! For the trial and on the day of my wedding, my girls and I worked with Kim (hair) and Jenna (makeup), and they were both amazing. So kind, so friendly, and clearly knowledgeable! I was deciding between two hairstyles, and Kim was happy to try both in my trial. I had a couple things I wanted to change with my makeup, and Jenna was more than happy to accommodate! I was incredibly pleased with both looks on my wedding day, and everyone looked incredible!! I was definitely very blessed with the weather on wedding day, so that also helps, but hair and makeup stayed in place fabulously! The cherry on top is that everyone was just so sweet and easy to talk to!! Made the start of the day so pleasant and relaxed, and it seems like all my girls had a great time, too! Would absolutely recommend!!

Hi, I’m Sara, owner and lead artist of Sara Elizabeth Artistry. My love for makeup started with my own insecurities growing up, but it quickly became an incredible way for me to help others feel beautiful and confident. Though I first pursued nursing, I realized my true passion was in working with women. For over three years, I’ve had the joy of working with brides from all walks of life. I LOVE seeing the smiles and ecstatic reactions when you look in the mirror! I’m all about making your wedding day stress-free, FUN and run on time. When I’m not working, I’m a proud mom who loves traveling with my son and spending time with my cats!

I absolutely cannot say enough good things about Sara and her business! From communicating months before hand, two separate trials, and taking extra time the day of, she really cares so much about her craft and her brides. I felt totally at ease and absolutely comfortable during the entire process. She makes her brides feel like they’re getting a million dollar service. We had a large bridal party, and Sara and her staff made sure everyone left happy, looked amazing, and kept us right on time. She’s professional and an absolute gem at her craft. Choose her!!!! You won’t be disappointed!!!

On the average day you'll find me with my hands in someones hair. I have a passion for making people feel like the best versions of themselves. Ive been doing hair for 12 years and have owned my salon, Copper for 10 of those. In 2020, I stepped out of working for a larger bridal company and launched Copper Bridal. Since opening, we have provided bridal services for over 85 brides in the Cincinnati Area. As of January 2023, I am bringing my bridal styling to Alabama and I hope to set a new standard for bridal hair in Auburn/Opelika and Lake Martin areas.

Amanda is AMAZING! I have been going to her salon since I moved to Cincinnati 3 years ago and would not have gone with anyone else to do my hair for my wedding. She was so helpful throughout the bridal process, answering any questions I had and helping me with color matching for my extensions. I had 7 bridesmaids, myself, and a family member getting hair done for my wedding. Amanda was styling alone and completed everyone’s looks with over an hour to spare! Everyone looked phenomenal with all different hairstyles. She is amazing with different hair textures and lengths and is so creative with her styles. Do yourself a favor and book with her if you want to look amazing for your own wedding!
