Hey everyone I know this gets asked a lot, but the knot is messing up and won't even let me scroll back through pages. 

I need your hair and makeup rec please. I need to book these last two things.

Thanks!

    I'm using Maggie Bosworth, she works with MMC Makeup artists. Her prices were good for myself and my bridesmaids and I liked what was included: airbrush, false eyelashes and a touch up kit. I met with her and really liked her personality. Here's their site: http://www.marismalonecalderonweddings.com/index.html#/home/ the rates on the site have increased slightly, but still not bad!

    I booked with Keep Austin Gorgeous.  I'm going for a super glam look, so they were the only place I could find that could do this.  Plus the girls that work there always look amazing, so you know they've got talent.

    I'm using Rhea McCarter. She is amazing and one of the most reasonably priced MUAs I found. For hair, I was originally planning on using Liz at Edelweiss- I had a trial with her and she is great; however, my dad's girlfriend, Renee Rezae from Simply Irresistable Salon, offered to do my hair for the wedding, so I decided to go with her.

    Does anyone know if any of these people travel? I am hoping to have someone fix me up on-site vs. trying to maintain the look while melting in the summer sun.

    I just had a consulation and makeup application with Creative Edge Bridal (www.creativeedgebridal.com) this morning. Jenny was great, very personable, and very good with the makeup. I am going to sign my contract with her next week. She does travel.

    KAG does travel for a fee, but their studio is so neat that I decided to just host the bridal luncheon there.

    I also used Keep Austin Gorgeous.  Brizy was a little on the flaky side when I was booking, but on the day of the wedding her team finished hair and makeup for all 10 of my bridesmaids right on time and everyone looked great!  And, like chloetutor said, their studio is so cute!

    I know that LucieMarie is a team of makeup and hair artists that travel, and have gotten good reviews here.  I had trouble getting them to return my calls and emails, so I didn't end up going with them.

    I loved my hair and makeup with Angela Parker at LucieMarie and she travels.  I have seen some posts about her being hard to get in touch with, but she was out on maternity leave for a while.  I never had any trouble getting in contact with her through email and I thought she was FABULOUS... she was even able to interpret what I wanted, since I couldn't quite put it in words!  : )
