I used Beauty and the Blush for my wedding on June 24, 2023 and Vanessa the owner was an absolute dream to work with! When looking for a makeup artist for the wedding I was very particular about who I chose as I wanted someone who would not only fit my vibe, but also do a good job on all the girls getting ready with me including my mother and mother-in-law. I looked for artists who did a wide variety of clients, different skin tones, both mature and young skin, and who made everyone look naturally enhanced, not like fake versions of themselves. From the first contact I had with Vanessa I knew I chose correctly. She was wonderfully professional, easy to communicate with, listened to me, and answered all my questions! Beauty and the Blush has such an easy, user-friendly portal they use to communicate with clients, collect payments, and send questionnaires to brides to get as much information as possible before the first trial. I did not have to worry about handling any cash day off, all payments and tips were done through the portal which made the morning of the wedding stress free and easy. Her studio in NJ is so cute and professional, and it was a great place for the makeup trial with everything you need to make you feel comfortable and confident in your artist. Vanessa paired me up with Estrella as my makeup artist and she was a DOLL! She was so sweet, totally saw my vision, tweaked what I asked her to, and made me look amazing. I left feeling so beautiful and excited for the big day. I brought my mom with me to the trial and both Vanessa and Estrella were so easy to talk to and made us feel so welcomed. You definitely want to work with people who you vibe with and their vibes were 10/10 The morning of the wedding was so wonderful. Estrella was right on time, came super prepared and everyone loved their makeup! I couldn't believe how beautiful she made everyone look and feel. I've had my makeup professionally done for other weddings before and it never looks as good as when you do it yourself... This experience was the exact opposite! Each girl looked amazing, like true versions of themselves only enhanced. Nothing was caked on, too harsh, wrong color match, or crazy blending. I seriously was SO happy with how everyone looked and all the girls were genuinely thrilled with their makeup! I looked exactly how I hoped I would look on my wedding day and it's all thanks to the amazing beauty and the blush girls. Estrella was truly the perfect MUA for me and my girls. I will forever recommend Beauty and the Blush to any and all brides out their looking for a MUA for their big day. Not only are they professional, talented, and easy to work with - they are genuinely so sweet and kind and will take one big stresser off your shoulders. Thank you Vanessa and team for everything!!! read more

If you are looking for a reliable, professional and amazing wedding hair and makeup team, Beauty and the Blush should be your ONLY choice. Vanessa was an absolute angel dealing with me for months about my wedding day, even leading up to a few days before. She is kind and so understanding. I couldn't have asked for a better person to have handled some of my wedding stress when it came to this VERY important part of my day. Yesenia and Siomara were my dream team. They did my hair/makeup trial and made me feel so incredibly comfortable because I had ideas but wasn't sure about how it would look altogether. If you aren't sure if you should do a hair/makeup trial- do not hesitate and DO the trial. Yesenia and Siomara not only made my ideas come to life but they had such great advice on what to do leading up to the wedding on how to make my hair and skin look and feel its best on that day. My wedding day started out as the perfect day because of Yesenia and Siomara. I have never looked as beautiful as I did on my wedding day. They were so kind and down to earth. They made every one of us, including both my wife's mom and my mom look absolutely stunning. They were so attentive and willing to make us look and feel as beautiful as we did. Our makeup lasted all night and I cannot tell you how many compliments we received from our guests. There aren't enough words to describe how amazing this team was. Ladies, thank you much from the bottom of my heart, for all that you did on my wedding day; and not just the hair and makeup but the comfortability and conversation that made my nerves instantly go away. read more

I had a wonderful experience working with Blush and the Beauty.  Vanessa was professional, accommodating, and very responsive. The client portal made it very easy to schedule the makeup and hair trial, make payments, upload hair and makeup inspo, and keep track of other important paperwork. I greatly appreciate her flexibility with changing plans and guidance about dealing with vendors. My bridal party and I had the pleasure of working with Siomara, Estrella, Jolie, and Diana. They were efficient, dedicated, and very talented.  Siomara and Estrella perfectly executed my vision for hair and makeup on the first try and were able to recreate it perfectly on the day of. The day of the wedding, Estrella and Jolie skillfully applied beautiful make-ups for a wide range of skin tones, ages, and personal tastes. Siomara was able to create gorgeous updos with shorter haircuts and a wide range of hair textures. Diana's assistance and taking behind the scene photos was so helpful.  Some of my favorite get-ready photos were taken by Diana. Most importantly, everyone was kind, understanding, and accommodating (even at 5am). Siomara, Estrella, Jolie, and Diana  truly went above and beyond before and on the day of the wedding.  I cannot express how appreciative myself, my bridesmaids, and my mother & mother-in-law are for their work. read more

JUST BOOK VANESSA AND GABY!! But if you want a more detailed reason, here it is. To start Vanessa was so easy to work with. She responds to emails faster than any vendor I worked with for my wedding and was always polite, helpful and no nonsense (which I love!). She was so excellent with helping me put together my morning of wedding schedule, which was something I was dreading. My makeup trial with Vanessa was also excellent. She is easy to talk to and made me feel instantly comfortable. The day I did my makeup trial I was already so pleased and walked around the rest of the day feeling like a freaking super model! Now for the actual wedding day! Wow is the only word I can say to describe Vanessa and Gaby. They made myself, my bridesmaids and my family feel so comfortable. There was so much laughter and just good times while we were getting ready, it seriously felt like we had two more friends joining in on the fun. Not only that but they made all of us feel absolutely stunning with our makeup!!! The makeup was exactly what I wanted and lasted all night through lots of tears, dancing and an outdoor wedding. I can say confidently that they gave me wedding makeup that not only exceeded expectations, but also a morning of getting ready that I will always cherish! read more

All hail the queens! Vanessa and her team of makeup goddesses are queens and they made me feel like one on my wedding day. Or maybe goddess? QUEEN goddess! Where to begin with the praises? First of all: VANESSA. She is a consummate businesswoman and was fantastic to work with from start to finish. At a time when I was stressed, Vanessa and her incredibly prompt, refreshingly clear emails were a balm! The makeup itself was flawless. Karla is really gifted. She also listened when I decided to go for a different look after the trial, and executed my vision perfectly. I felt so HEARD. Beauty and the Blush also made my entire bridal party, mom and grandma feel beautiful ... and in a timely manner. No rushes the day of. We kept squealing when each look was complete. The team fit right in and felt like friends by the end of the morning. I honestly am sad the wedding is over in part because I will miss talking to Vanessa and Karla. I will reach out to them for my next parties for sure. Honestly, do not worry and just book them if you are hesitating. You won't regret it -- they are PROS. Reviews like this are why I booked them and I hope this review puts you at ease. I feel so good recommending this business to others. read more

Beauty and the Blush was absolutely amazing for my wedding!! Vanessa was professional, prompt at getting back to me, and overall great to work with. Steph did hair and Eirini did makeup, and I can only say wonderful things about the both of them!! Steph nailed exactly what I was looking for with my hair at my trial and on my wedding day. My curls stayed all day and I never had to worry about them. I was nervous about getting my makeup done at my trial because I never had before, and I don't wear a lot of makeup normally. Eirini listened closely to what I asked and was able to make me look and feel beautiful without putting pounds and pounds of makeup on my face. She knew exactly what I wanted even though I barely knew myself! My makeup also stayed on all day, despite all the tears and sweat I went through. Both ladies were incredibly sweet and personable, which made it lovely to spend the day with them as I got ready for my wedding with my bridal party. All of the ladies looked beautiful and loved their hair and makeup! read more

So thankful I chose Beauty and the Blush! The owner Vanessa is a doll to work with. She is super communicative and makes sure that the day of your wedding everything goes smoothly. She sends you a schedule before hand, accounts for possible delays, and is super thorough! When I went for my trial, we did a couple of hair styles since I couldn't decide what I wanted, and Cheyenne and Vanessa were both patient with me. In addition to their professionalism, I have to say, they are the people you want around on your wedding day! They are super down to earth, so lovely to be around, and overall just truly beautiful people inside and out! We were vibin' in the bridal suite! They truly felt like they were part of the fam! My bridesmaids and mom loved them so much they wanted the team to stay for the party!! Thank you to the Beauty and the Blush Team for being a part of the most special day of my life and making me feel so beautiful on my. wedding day! read more

I was very happy with Beauty and the Blush for our wedding. I enjoyed getting to know all of the ladies on the Beauty and the Blush team throughout the process. I also recommended them to another friend getting married and she ended up booking them as well! They arrived early on our wedding day and were ready to go and start on time with my girls. We had a very early start time and they were professional and did an amazing job on the hair and makeup for all of my bridal party! I was so pleased with how everyone looked and their hair and makeup lasted all throughout the day and into the night. I would highly recommend Vanessa and the Beauty and the Blush team - they were wonderful to work with and quick to respond to any question (trivial or otherwise) that I had throughout the planning process. They made everything very effortless and easy and I would book them again if I could do it all over again! Thank you! read more

Vanessa, Tracy, Siomara, and Gaby were an absolute pleasure to work with. I chose Beauty & the Blush because of their amazing social media (I mean, look at all of their beautiful work!) and also because Vanessa was so easy to correspond with. She was always quick to reply & answer my questions. My trial wth Vanessa & Tracy blew me away. They were so patient with me as I asked for little changes whale we tweaked my bridal look.  I couldn't have asked for a better experience on the day of my wedding with the entire glam squad! They arrived on time, friendly, eager, and ready to go! They were efficient with their work and we remained on time or ahead of schedule the entire morning. Every single one of my bridesmaids looked STUNNING and I couldn't have been happier with my final look. My hair and makeup lasted 13 hours without a single hair or eyelash out of place. I cannot recommend this beauty team enough!!! read more

Beauty and the Blush was absolutely amazing! They provided hair and makeup services for myself (the bride), my bridesmaids, God mother, mother of the bride, and mother of the groom, and everyone looked and felt beautiful. A special thank you to Vanessa for making the entire process so seamless. She was incredible with communication, organized, responsive, and helped everything flow smoothly leading up to and on the wedding day. The team created a fun and relaxing atmosphere while getting ready, listened to everyone's preferences, and brought each person's vision to life. My hair and makeup were exactly what I envisioned and lasted beautifully throughout the entire day. I received so many compliments, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. I highly recommend Beauty and the Blush for any bride looking for a talented and professional hair and makeup team! read more

The Beauty and Blush crew were amazing. They arrived on time and were prepared to give each bridesmaid a similar yet still unique look. The Mother of Groom got her wish of getting lashes and finally having her makeup done professionally. They helped my flower girl get glammed up for the first time. Beauty and the Blush accented my natural beauty while still making sure I stood out as the bride! I even purchased my headpiece from them because it was a perfect match for both my dresses. These women did an outstanding job, including keeping in touch with me through my ideas for all of my ladies and guiding me in my beauty decisions. There was not a dull moment as they worked on hair and make up for my ladies especially since they joined in on the fun and conversation. They were wonderful and I am so happy that I chose them for such a momentous occasion! read more

Absolutely one of the best vendor choices I made for my wedding. Not only were they reasonably priced, but they were a blast at 7am in the morning! They were such a great group of women and made my wedding morning fun and special. I was looking for a more "glowy look" and I realized those looks don't really last as long.. however, my makeup lasted the entire night (even with my crazy dance moves and sweaty head banging). It was the absolute perfect soft glam/glowy/bronzy look I could have ever asked for. All my bridesmaids/mothers were obsessed with their looks and everyone's hair suited them perfectly. On top of all that, they were ahead of schedule which decreased my stress during the wedding morning. They had extra time planned for touch ups/questions/concerns/ and anything else we could have thought it. I would recommend this team in a heartbeat! read more

These girls are the BEST! They are professional, work fast but are meticulous, and kind! Vanessa their team lead is so extremely responsive. She would answer my emails at all different times in the day so quickly and always made me feel calm that my hair and makeup would be perfect on my wedding day. I originally only hired them for hair and a separate vendor for makeup. When my first vendor for makeup didn't turn out to be what I had hoped, only 4 months out from my wedding Vanessa quickly changed up the plan and had 12 peoples makeup covered for my big day. They know what they are doing and you can be confident that you and your girls will look perfect. All my bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning for 12+ hours makeup & hair did not budge, and they were all super happy with the way they looked. You will not regret using Beauty & The Blush!!! read more

I am still raving about Vanessa & Cheyenne! At both my hair trial and day of the wedding, they were so easy to work with, personable, knowledgeable, organized and talented. They communicate well, quickly answering any questions over email. They are very open-minded and listen well to your needs and desires. They really listened and understood my vision, which was a natural look but elevated for my special day. I wanted to look and feel like myself with some minor glam, and not feel like someone else on my wedding day. They totally delivered and I felt amazing. Everyone truly looked incredible. They really know how to highlight what makes everyone beautiful. They also are super fun to hang out with and I loved spending time with them the morning of my wedding. 1000% recommend Beauty and the Blush for all your hair and make-up needs. read more

I was having a wedding in mid-May, and in mid-April I messaged Vanessa about getting hair and makeup done for the wedding, and I had a response almost immediately! Some other people I had messaged took several days to get back to me, so the swift response time was quite impressive. On the wedding day, Karla showed up to do my makeup and she was super nice and also professional. She asked me a couple questions about my makeup preferences and we set out from there. My makeup turned out PERFECTLY. Karla also did the makeup for my mother and aunt, and their finished looks were gorgeous too. Stephanie came over to do my hair. I showed her a few inspiration pictures and we worked together to create the perfect hairstyle for my wedding day. I can't say enough about this company and I would not hesitate to use them in the future. read more

I cannot say enough good things about this team!! Vanessa was amazing and very organized with all the details. She was quick to respond to all my inquiries and made me feel very relaxed about the big day. Karla was simply THE BEST. During my trial, Karla really took the time to go over what I wanted and everything turned out exactly how I pictured. On the wedding day, she was so calm and fun which took all my nerves away. I was obsessed with my hair and make-up and there are no words to express how beautiful I felt. Karla also went above and beyond by staying late to help with pictures and to make sure I looked perfect. Nevina, Gabby, and Diana were also incredible. These ladies delivered exactly what my bridal party wanted and they were so happy. This team made the wedding day so fun and it was truly the best day ever! read more

I could not be happier with the service from Beauty & Blush! They were a pleasure to work with from start to finish! My best friend hired them for her wedding in 2019 and I knew I wanted to hire them for mine. I went for the hair and makeup trial and both ladies were open to my feedback to ensure that everything was how I wanted it. The day of my wedding was so smooth even though we had to start early. Gaby, Tracy, and Jolie made us feel so comfortable and were so great to work with. My hair and makeup was exactly what I wanted and held up for 12+ hours. My hair looked perfect even after hours and hours of dancing and my makeup never smudged! I highly recommend working with them for both hair and makeup! Their online platform made payments easy and they communicate with you every step of the way! read more

Vanessa and her team were recommended to me by another artist, and I am so beyond happy to have had them on my team this past Saturday. Amanda, Jamie, and Gabi are all masters of their craft - I had 11 women getting ready with me (a mix of hair, makeup, and both), and they gave each an incredible amount of time, detail, and effort. Beyond working with precision, they felt like a natural part of the getting ready process - we laughed and chatted with them all morning, keeping spirits high (but calm) in the lead up to my ceremony. My mom and I dont have a ton of hair, and Amanda gave us each so much volume that stayed all day. I couldn't help but say "wow" every time I looked at my friends, sister, mom, and myself thanks to Gabi and Jamie's makeup work! I'd recommend this team to anyone! read more

I cannot rave enough about Vanessa and her team. From the start, they helped with my schedule, recommending products and ways to keep my skin clean, and always answered quickly. On the actual day I got so many compliments on my makeup and had the most fun getting ready with Vanessa and Gaby. The contract was available in the portal, I also loved that tip was included in that because on the day of the wedding things just go by so quickly. My makeup stayed on ALL day and night. It was over 90 degrees on my wedding day, I sweat, cried, and stood outside for pictures for so long and my makeup didn't waiver. By the time I got back to the hotel I looked at myself and almost cried again because I still felt so beautiful. Can't recommend this team enough. read more
