Linda was very timely in her responses to me and explained the process very clearly especially since we are from out of town. The day of went very smoothly - makeup was exactly what the bride and I asked for. Most importantly, it lasted ALL DAY! We had a 7am start and we were still glowing by 11pm. The hairstylist was so kind and made my friend's naturally straight fine hair hold beautiful curls and added the comb my friend had bought. Our party was a bit chaotic as you can imagine morning of the wedding and Linda and her team navigated it so well and were very professional. I highly recommend weddings a go go.

The wedding day we started by 7 am and had several women getting hair and make up done. They finished early and were even patient with my impatient photographer.

Sarah did my hair and makeup for my wedding, and I LOVED everything! She got it exactly how I…read morewanted and even had a couple different ideas for my hair which I ended up loving more than my original idea (her suggestions worked much better with my hair length, she really knows her stuff)! She is very knowledgeable, so easy to talk to, and just an overall very nice person. When we were finished, she sent me with a touch up kit just in case. She even went out of her way to accommodate a potential time change in wedding time because of an unforeseen potential for rain at our outdoor venue (ended up having great weather anyway, but she still did everything possible to make it stress free). I highly recommended Sarah!

I had Sarah do my hair for my wedding and she was absolutely wonderful. I went in for a trial run…read morea few weeks before my wedding with an idea of how I wanted my hair and Sarah was able to put it all together beautifully. She is very personable, friendly, and makes you feel very comfortable. She answered all my emails promptly and even emailed me two or three times before the wedding to confirm the details. The day of the wedding she showed up at my hotel room about 20 minutes early to set up. My hair is extremely long (to my lower back), thick, and does not hold a curl EVER. She brought all of the supplies needed to work with my hair type. My hair ended up even more beautiful then the trial run and even more beautiful then I could have imagined. The up-do and curls lasted ALL day and night without any issues. It was such a relief! She finished my hair around noon and I didn't take it out till about midnight that night and it still looked perfect. I got compliments all day and night on how beautiful it looked and how well it stayed in. I highly recommend Sarah!

I cannot speak highly enough of Sonia's skill, professionalism and calm demeanor. She was so complimentary to the good vibes that we had in my bridal suite. I chose to do the trial and I'm glad that I did. We were able to try out a look and finalize a few tweaks for the big day. Her pricing was super reasonable but don't let that fool you, she is just as good or better than those costing $700+ for application. Book her! You won't regret

I started going to her when I lived in Tahoe, and even after moving to the East Coast, I flew back across the country for FIVE straight years just so she could do my blonde highlights. That's how much I trust her - she's the only woman I've ever let touch my hair without hesitation! While I was definitely sad when Sonia transitioned out of doing regular hair appointments, I was beyond thrilled to have her be such a meaningful part of my wedding day. It felt full-circle in the most special way. Over the years, Sonia has become more than just my stylist, she's become a dear friend, and having her there with me on such a personal, emotional, and exciting day was truly priceless. Not only did she absolutely nail my wedding look (and my bridesmaids looked incredible!), but she also did the makeup for my best friend at her wedding several years ago - because once you meet Sonia, you recommend her to everyone. She's just that good. Sonia is affordable, professional, calming, hilarious, and genuinely one of the warmest people you could ever hope to spend your wedding morning with. If you're getting married in Tahoe and want hair and makeup done right - by someone you can trust, enjoy, and rely on 100%, Sonia is the only choice. I wouldn't have had anyone else by my side.

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Migle Watson with BU Makeup. My husband and I were…read moremarried in September 2017 in the West Shore of Lake Tahoe, CA - a destination wedding for us and all of our guests. Finding vendors for a destination wedding seemed daunting at first, but with the help of Wedding Wire, I was able to discover Migle's business. I first contacted Migle directly through Wedding Wire after noticing her reasonable pricing and strong reviews. She was extremely responsive to my initial inquiry. We then set up a "phone interview" - I knew from the moment we spoke that she would be incredible to work with. She took the time to thoughtfully and patiently answer each one of my (many!) questions. Over the phone, Migle exuded professionalism, kindness, and true knowledge of the industry. She impressed me with her extensive experience and the fact that she had previously worked with my photographer, so she knew what style makeup would work best with my photographer's preferences. What resonated with me the most, though, was that Migle's primary focus is to make you feel like YOU - something I had never encountered when previously receiving makeup services at counters like MAC, Clinique, or Laura Mercier. Migle and I set up a makeup trial during a time when I was visiting the area and was extremely accommodating to my schedule and where I was staying. She genuinely listened to my desires and worked with me to determine my ideal wedding-day look. The day of the wedding, Migle arrived on-time to our venue and was fully prepared. Migle finished all of our services exactly when we needed to be ready for photographs. My four bridesmaids looked and felt stunning - and I've never felt more gorgeous. We had a lot of fun, too! Always listen to Migle when she gives you makeup advice - she knows what she's talking about (I am so glad I listened to you, Migle, and went with the bigger lashes!). Hire Migle! You will not regret it!
