It’s been one month since our wedding and every day I go back to how loved and supported I felt on the best day of my life. Sara was a huge part of that. Sara and her team made me look and feel more beautiful than I have ever felt, and most importantly, I was comfortable and stress-free throughout the entire process. Sara is an absolute master at her craft, and incredibly professional every step of the way, but it was her kindness and openness that I valued the most. From our initial phone call, to the trial, to the day of, Sara had me laughing and chatting as if we had known each other for years. I felt comfortable sharing my bridal anxieties with her, and trusted that she was going to make my girls and I look our best on the big day. Because of Sara and her team, getting ready for the wedding was one of the most fun parts of the day. It was relaxed, stress-free, and fun, and I was sad to see Sara and her team go at the end of it, because I just wanted to hang out with them all day! One specific thing that sets Sara apart was her ability to work with every type of client. My mom does not wear makeup nor does she feel comfortable getting all dolled up, but Sara handled that with a pro, not making my mom feel any pressure with how she looked. She did such a masterful job that I even caught my mom checking herself out in the mirror a few times throughout the night, which never happens! Hiring Sara will be the best decision of your wedding planning experience - I cannot recommend her enough!!

I serve all over New England and travel on-site to my brides to ensure their wedding morning is seamless and leaves amazing memories!

Awarded Best of Zola
My biggest stress during wedding planning was finding a MUA since I normally don't wear makeup. Janna was referred by my planner two acquaintances and I 1000% get why. She is professional, personal, talented, and multifaceted. I received many compliments well into the night on how good my makeup still looked after taking outdoor photos on a hot Aug day and dancing the night away. Janna made me feel like an elevated version of myself while also feeling like I had little to no makeup on. I could not recommend her enough especially to any brides who are more timid when it comes to makeup

I had no stress which was such a relief on my big day. They paid very close attention to detail and didn't disappoint. You will not be disappointed! ~Lisa

Yin was extremely accommodating and very personable. From the bridal trial to the actual day, I felt so beautiful. She was able to capture the look that I was going for with both a tea ceremony and wedding reception being able to have a makeup look match the essence and being able to take my hair down from an updo and have it down for the ceremony. She is very professional and her quality of work shows. Everyone at our wedding was complimenting our hair and makeup. She was able to complete my Maid of Honor, Mother’s, and me the brides hair and makeup in a timely manner the day of and travel to us with no problem. We all had different hair and makeup requests and she knocked them out of the park. Not to mention, her approach is very warm and we all felt so comfortable. I could not recommend her services enough and cannot wait to work with her again for any future makeup & hair needs!!

Nikki Roth Bridal Makeup

  • Team of 2
  • Starts at $950
  • Serves Cambridge, MA

I am jumping into my 10th bridal season as a makeup artist and am more passionate about it than ever before! Specializing in glowy, soft glam makeup looks! Also offering pre wedding skin prep, brows & lash services at my studio in Wayland, MA!

I know it sounds crazy, but I may or may not have picked my wedding date based on Nikki and Rachel's schedule. Nikki did my makeup for a friend's wedding 2 years ago, and after feeling the most beautiful I'd ever felt in my life I knew I was going to book her when my time came around. The entire process with Nikki was easy, from my trial to the logistics and all in between. Her work speaks for itself. I can't even count the number of people who came up to me and told me my makeup was insanely gorgeous on my wedding day, and I felt that way too. The one aspect that I feel shouldn't be overlooked is the experience Nikki and my beauty time provided for me on that day. When I say down in the chair, it was the first time I started to get nervous and thought, "Oh my god, this is really happening," but sitting there with Nikki and chitchatting and giggling made my nerves go away. I was so sad when the getting ready part was over because I had so much fun hanging out with them LOL. Thank you, thank you, thank you Nikki for making me feel so insanely beautiful, and for being such a big part of my wedding day. My blast of a morning set the tone for the rest of the day!

Veronica Nunes- Freelance Makeup Artist 

5.0

  • Serves Cambridge, MA

I've been passionate about beauty ever since I could remember. I grew up with extremely sensitive skin and, thanks to my mother who was religious about her morning and evening skin care routines, understood the importance of quality skin and makeup products. I found that the communications and business skills acquired from my undergraduate studies would carry over when building my own business. From there, I shadowed and assisted numerous makeup artists in upstate New York, NYC and Boston and went out on my own in 2011. In May 2018, I graduated from the 600-hour Advanced Esthetics program from Catherine Hinds Institute of Esthetics.

Awarded Best of Zola
Veronica was an absolute dream to have as our makeup artist for our wedding! All my girls absolutely LOVED her, my bridal makeup was absolutely perfect, I felt so beautiful. She really took the time to make sure everything was perfect, her communication was phenomenal and her super sweet friendly demeanor put everyone at ease on such a busy morning. I cannot recommend her high enough- book Veronica to make your wedding makeup everything you dreamed- just like she did for me!

Welcome Modern Luxury Brides(Please connect IG :Fei_Xu_Beauty_Studio for latest work) Are you a high-achieving professional with a vision for your special day? Welcome to Fei Xu Beauty Studio, Boston’s premier destination for luxury bridal beauty. Led by celebrity-trained artist Fei Xu, our team tailors services for discerning brides like you. At Fei Xu Beauty Studio, we combine elegance, professionalism, and artistry to offer a transformative experience. Immerse yourself in personalized pampering as we create a radiant look that complements your unique style, ensuring you shine on your special day.

A few months before my summer 2024 wedding, I was struggling to find a makeup artist in Boston experienced with Asian faces. My bridal party and I are mixed-race Asian, and after an unsuccessful trial with another artist, we realized we needed someone skilled in techniques that complement Asian features. We found Fei Xu's website, and though she was booked, two team members, Yuki and Priceless, were available. They created stunning, personalized looks for all of us, closely following our inspiration photos and feedback to ensure we were happy with the results. For my bridal hair, I changed my mind from the half-updo look I had done at the trial and opted instead for a vintage pin-curl style on the wedding day. Yuki used authentic pin-curl techniques to craft the old Hollywood look I envisioned—something other stylists had not been able to do with the same reference photos during previous trials. My makeup also held up beautifully through the entire day and night and remained beautiful and luminous even after getting sweaty on the dance floor! Overall, we were blown away by the skill of Fei's team and would highly recommend their services.

Hair and Makeup by Sophia was an amazing addition to our wedding morning. Sophia was communicative, and friendly throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was perfect - they allowed time for touch-ups and individualized everyone's hair exactly how we wanted it. I also changed my style after the trial and she sat with me to understand exactly what I wanted and executed it perfectly. Sophia was so thoughtful, even offering me her extra sweater when I was feeling a bit cold. She brought such a calm presence and spent extra time ensuring my front pieces were styled just the way I envisioned for my look.
