Hair and Makeup PANIC!!

Hello all,

So I am less than 30 days (EEEP!) from my wedding, and I have discovered that I failed to book hair and makeup.

Does anyone have any experience with Michelle Renee Hair and Makeup? I know they get good reviews but I need to send them my contract and I am just nervous about it. I can't explain why- probably because I'm really close now and have basically second-guessed EVERY decision I have made so far (except Jason Angelini. Was set on him from the beginnig.) 

Does anyone have any pictures of MRHM's makeup? I want airbrush and lashes, but the four or so pics they have on their site don't make me feel that great.

Any other suggestions? A Victorian Bride is out of my price range... I just want this settled and I've heard great things about Michelle Renee but I am clearly panicking.

    Cari from Kyle Lynn weddings??  I LOVE LOVE her, and she is reasonable too.  If she is unavailable, she has a crew of other stylists/makeup artists that may be available.  And they go to you at any location.  Based in Tampa. 


    Good luck!!!

    Do you know if the prices are the same for the bride and the bridesmaids? Most places have different pricing, but I couldn't tell on the website. I've emailed her- thanks!

    Have you thought about asking Jason?  He should have some decent recommendations.

    I'm using Michele Renee Hair and Makeup and I absolutely loved her. Here is a link to my engagement photos. She did my trial hair and makeup for them. And here are a couple pics from the trial itself

    My wedding planner HIGHLY recommended them to me.  She says if she was getting her makeup down, she would use them.  Their prices are good compared to others.  I'm using them for my April wedding.

    I just hired Michele Renee based on several very high recommendations for my April 9th wedding. I did a ton of research before deciding on someone and feel very confident going with them. Their prices are very good too for both the bride and the bridesmaids. Good luck!

    While I don't have experience with them, when I asked my photographer for recommendations, he recommended Michele Renee. I hope that helps a little :)

    I think Kyle Lynn.......the hair styles are the same for bride and bridesmaid.  I want to say they were $65?  And makeup was 65$  If you booked 6 services, travel was free.  If not travel was $30.

    Ok, so now I'm debating going wih Kyle Lynn. Cari is very nice (through email anyway, atm) and I really really like the looks of the makeup on their site. My florist HIGHLY recommended Cari today... What do you all think? Any other recs or pictures of Kyle Lynn makeup and hair?

    As you can obviously see, I've become incapable of making a decision.

    I have a hair and makeup trial with Cari from Kyle Lynn on Monday- I'm excited. I'll post pics if anyone would like to see them, to help with a similar decision.
