Hi and welcome to Natalie Rose Beauty! My name is Natalie and I am the owner and founder of Natalie Rose Beauty! My passion is to make my clients feel like their most beautiful self. I want them to know and trust, I am here to make their day easy, relaxed and special. Honesty is the best policy in my book and I will never steer my clients in the wrong directly. I vow to always collaborate with them on their Wedding Day look so they feel perfect. At the end of the day when you're working with Natalie Rose Beauty, you are working with someone who truly cares about you and how you feel on your Wedding Day.

I worked with Natalie for my wedding in October 2023. I instantly loved Natalie’s portfolio because it gave ma a very natural vibe. I am someone who really doesn’t wear make-up, so it was very important to me to have that “wedding day beautiful” look but also stay true to myself and look natural. Natalie is very easy to work with when it comes to her communication and professionalism. She is very detail oriented and gave me advice on timelines and other things I hadn’t thought of. I had a fun time at our initial trial for hair and make-up. She is a great listener while also bringing her own thoughts and ideas to the table. On wedding day, her and her team showed up and we had a great time. Myself, the bridesmaids, and even the mothers all expressed to each other how impressed we were with their work and how we all felt naturally beautiful. As the bride, i felt a lot of emotions that day and Natalie also was a great support in calming me down and supporting me. Natalie made me feel so beautiful and comfortable with flaunting it!! I had never felt that way before in my life. I cannot recommend her enough. I hope there is another time in my life where i can work with her again.

As a wedding photographer, I know that every detail matters when it comes to capturing stunning photos that tell the story of a couple's special day. That's why I was thrilled to work with Chase That Barber as the wedding barber for one of my recent weddings, and I am delighted to share my review of their services.

They had all the necessary tools, products, and equipment neatly arranged, making it easy for me to capture candid shots of the grooming process. During the grooming session, I was able to observe Chase's expertise in action. Chase skillfully styled the groom's hair, groomed his beard, and paid meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring that he looked his absolute best for the big day. Chase That Barber’s precision and attention to detail were evident in every step of the grooming process, from the initial consultation to the final touches. Not only were Chase and his staff skilled in their craft, but they also had a friendly and approachable demeanor that put the groom at ease. They engaged in conversation, made the groom comfortable, and created a relaxed and enjoyable experience, which translated into natural and candid moments that I was able to capture through my lens.

Beauty by Heather Arnold

  • Starts at $125
  • Serves Carlsbad, CA

Hi, I'm Heather and my passion for enhancing a woman’s beauty is the reason I became a makeup artist. I have spent the last decade helping my clients showcase their best features, making them feel confident and beautiful. I am known for my soft and natural touch, providing a classic look that my clients will enjoy looking back on for years to come.

I am so grateful to have found Heather! As someone who doesn’t typically wear a ton of makeup, certainly not wedding-level glam on a regular basis, I was nervous about finding a makeup artist for my wedding who could make me feel like a better version of myself. But Heather did exactly that! I found her through a recommendation from my wedding planner and booked a trial several months in advance of the wedding (because I was nervous, stressed, anxious!) and did both a hair and makeup trial. Heather was super sweet from the beginning and the trial went so well. She listened to the things that I like makeup/color wise, used some example photos I provided, and learned about our wedding vision and myself – then she executed my wedding look perfectly on the first try! And she brought Nancy to do my hair, which also looked amazing even without extensions in. I was instantly SO relieved that I had found my beauty team on the first try – there was no need to shop around! I showed my photos from my trial to my bridal party and they all agreed and we booked Heather & her team to do both services for all of us. Heather was so easy to work with and is such a kind soul. Everyone who got their makeup done, ranging from our 13 year old junior bridesmaid to MOB loved their hair and makeup. Even the picky ones! We all looked stunning on the wedding day. AND – I’m a huge crier (happy tears flowed ALL DAY) and my makeup stayed looking amazing! I would absolutely hire Heather for any special event makeup in the future and would recommend her and her team for bridal parties 100%. Thank you for helping me feel my most beautiful self!

We used Dimpsi Mehndi for our Mehndi before our son’s Indian wedding. Dimple was the artist. She was AMAZING!!! We called her so many times before the event, she was always so sweet and so helpful!! We needed another artist the day before the event and Dimpsi Mehndi was able to provide one. She was also fabulous! Dimple was on time, and stayed 3 hours longer than asked.

Dana and Bri did the hair and makeup for my wedding day and I couldn’t be happier or recommend them more. From the bridal trial to the day of timeline for my wedding party Dana handled it all so that I didn’t have to worry about thinking about anything more than I needed to. Bri was able to get curls to set in my friend with straight hair and my mom said that she never had such great lashes done in her life. I also love that Dana was able to cut and style my hair in advance so that it was perfect and ready for wedding day with one less appointment to worry about. Dana and Bri were both so chill and fun to hang out with they became a part of our wedding party.

Specializing in working with brides and bridal parties on their significant day is undoubtedly the most fulfilling aspect of my role as a Makeup Artist. The dynamic and high-energy atmosphere of weddings is where I not only excel but find my passion deeply ignited.

I could not have been happier with my wedding makeup! I felt so beautiful. I typically don’t wear a ton of makeup and I felt like Bonnie did a wonderful job balancing a natural look that came out well in photos without making me feel like I had a mask on. I got so many compliments. I also have pretty sensitive skin and we were able to use my trial to not only discuss what look I was going for, but to also figure out what products were gentle enough for my skin before my big day. All of her products are cruelty-free, which not only helped with my skin sensitivity, but it was also important to me as an animal lover. Bonnie was timely and professional. I highly recommend hiring her for your special day!

Makeup, Hair and Dance by Meleah

I have been passionate about making beautiful brides for over 25 years. I have a special talent for transforming people and enhancing their best features. Your perfect look is my goal and I want to exceed your expectations! Bride only or larger groups are all possible. I also offer First Dance lessons. The first dance can be daunting and very scary so I make it simple and easily accomplished in just a few lessons. Lessons are private so you feel more comfortable.

While searching the Internet for a make-up artist for my wedding, I stumbled upon Makeup, Hair & Dance by Meleah and, boy, am I happy I did! Meleah is great! She is quick to respond (unlike so many other makeup artists I had reached out to) and is so accommodating. At first, I just wanted my makeup done, then I decided to add my hair, then my fiancé decided to have his hair (and makeup) done, then we decided to have her teach us some dance steps, and the list goes on! For each addition, Meleah was happy to take on the task. On our wedding day, my hair looked fabulous, my makeup was impeccable, my fiancé looked very handsome, and our dance was so much fun! We had a wonderful, memorable day, but it wouldn’t have been nearly so wonderful without Meleah’s help. I can’t express enough how grateful I am to have found her!
