Missouri-Kansas City

I need some recommendations!

Wow, haven't been on TK in a very long time!  I got a full-time teaching job this year (YAY!) and it has definitely taken over my life!  Thank goodness for my mom, she has done a lot of work on the wedding for us!
I need recommendations for two things:
#1: make-up artist/hair stylist... I would love to use one "place" or duo for the day.  And I would be willing to pay a little more for them to come to me on the day of the wedding.  Our wedding is in Mission, KS, but I live in St. Louis and my mom is in Nebraska - so this is getting difficult!  If anyone has some recommendations, I would love to be able to set up appts for when I get to travel there next month!

#2: Transportation: We're looking into a limo bus thingy (?) for the girls to get to the church and then the whole WP afterward - any recs on a great company?

Thank you so much in advance!

    For makeup/hair I have been looking all over myself.  Unfortunately I think I am having 2 different people.  I think for make up I am going with who everyone else on here always recommends-CaraSue Hall.  I believe she also does hair as well.

    For limo buses try kool nights or king limo.  Maybe see who will give you the better rate.

    I would recommend  In Damand Salon. A know a lot of people that go to Emily and  I am having her do my hair fo rmy wedding but she offers hair and makeup and i think she travels to you the day of. She is very resonable as well! here is her facebook link http://www.facebook.com/pages/Downtown-Lees-Summit/In-Demand-Salon/124730500918096?v=info#!/pages/Downtown-Lees-Summit/In-Demand-Salon/124730500918096?v=wall . I am excited for her to do my wedding. I know a lot of the girls  (I have 7 BM) are planning on using her as well.

    [QUOTE]Tricia Root is doing my make-up onsite. Overland Limousine: I use them as my regular car service for airport runs, nights on the town, etc.  They are awesome.  Reliable, trustworthy, and their drivers are excellent.  ETA: I can't recommend a salon as my styist only does wedding hair for current clients.

    Thanks for reminding me about Tricia Root, I wanted to contact her as well!

    The whole group at Pinkie Couture do AWESOME work!  My personal favorits are Beckie, Manda and Preston.

    I have never seen bad hair or makeup come out of that place, and have usually worked with them on-site in the past for model shoots.
