Joanne and Jamie were easily one of my favorite vendors for my wedding. I got married April 7, 2024 and had my hair trial on February 3. I found Joanne’s company through one of my Instagram friends, who also got her hair done with them. I was immediately taken with them for two reasons: 1) They had no minimum person requirement 2) they were so so so quick in their email communications (something I found was super rare when looking for hairstylists). Immediately upon visiting for the trial, I knew I was in good hands. They were both so sweet and really took into consideration my preferences, veil & dress, and venue when making suggestions. I felt so comfortable with them (and they even gave me some tea!). On the day of the wedding, Jamie arrived promptly at our getting ready location and was quite efficient and effective in doing my hair. I never was worried that my hair would fall out during the wedding and the fact that I never once thought about my hair all night is a testament to how well it was done. And as I look back on my photos, I constantly look at my hair, impressed by how well it stayed curled and beautiful all day (even as I danced for 2 hours straight). I could never recommend Joanne and Jamie more for your big day.

Beauty by Heather Arnold 

5.0

  • Starts at $125
  • Serves San Marcos, 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!

Haley was the absolute sweetest to work with, and so talented with hair and makeup. I was going for a soft glam look, and she did exactly that. From the moment we had our trial I had complete confidence in my wedding day look, and I couldn't wait to have my hair and makeup done like that again for the wedding day. Haley spent time with me during my trial to find the right hair look and was very accommodating to feedback. She also brought such a sense of calm and peace to wedding day, despite the typical chaos.

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.

Meleah is the best!!! I worked with Meleah for both hair/makeup and dance lessons. From the first makeup/hair trial, I felt at ease with Meleah and she really listened to what I wanted while giving some suggestions. On my wedding day, my hair lasted all night - even after 3 hours of dancing - and my makeup was perfect. I truly felt like a princess on my wedding day and it was in large part to my hair and makeup! Meleah and her team also beautifully dealt with some anxious moms/aunts on the wedding day. My husband and I also decided to do some first dance lessons in order to feel more comfortable having the spotlight on us and the lessons were so much fun. Meleah did an amazing job teaching us a dance in just 5 lessons and everyone was blown away by our moves. The first dance lessons were definitely a highlight of the wedding planning process and we are both so glad we did it!
