Special Moments Hair and Make-up

Before the wedding, Alicia did a trial and kept checking in to make sure I was happy. She was patient and listened to what I wanted. I loved my hair and makeup and so did all of the other girls on my wedding! Alicia went above and beyond! In addition to doing such an amazing job with hair and makeup, she helped my sister get her dress on (stubborn zipper), took gorgeous pictures, and even touched up my Mom’s makeup (when she insisted on doing it herself) 🙂 I look forward to seeing Alicia again when she does my best friend’s wedding in July!

Alicia went above and beyond for not only me, the bride, but my bridesmaids as well. She traveled to my wedding destination, at Illinois State Beach, at 8:30 am the day of the wedding and spent the entire morning and early afternoon helping us look our best. She skipped lunch to make sure we were ready before the photographer arrived at 2 pm. She was not only professional but fun and relaxed which is exactly what you need the day of your wedding. I could not recommend anyone other than Alicia to help you with hair and makeup for your big day

Alicia did a wonderful job for our wedding on September 25, 2010 and each of the five bridesmaids were so happy with her work. Alicia showed up on time and was very patient with our group, all of the girls showed up at different times. She was very accommodating to what each girl wanted, and was able to provide suggestions that fit each person’s style. She was very patient with me since I did not know exactly what I wanted, and she ended up creating a beautiful intricate braided updo for me based on a few pictures I had brought with me. Everyone’s hair stayed put during the outdoor photo shoot on a windy day and lasted throughout the night.

One month before my wedding, I found myself having to search for a new hair/make up artist who could do on location services for a price that wouldn’t break my bank. Luckily, I got in contact with Alicia, who was wonderful to work with. She had a ton of ideas, came to my place for the trial and arrived at the location even before I did on the wedding day! She was flexible and worked really well with my bridesmaids and mom, and even stayed a little longer to do make up for my aunt. She requires about an hour per girl for hair and make up, so make sure to plan your schedule accordingly! I loved the ease…

Special Moments made my wedding a special day! With the onsite service that was fully prepared for anything. I had a bridal party of 6 including myself the bride… It all started at 8 am hair make up my girls and I got the full treatment! For a little extra Alicia had accompanied us to the church to put her final touch on our hair and make-up. I really strongly suggest that you choose Special Moments for your special day! Very professional service! I still get asked “who did your hair?” I use her now as my own stylist… Also I used special moments to take my bedroom pictures for my new husband for valentines day! She works with a few photographers too! Thanks Special moments!
Bride,
