This review is long overdue! If I could give Alesia more than 5 stars I would! I booked my initial trial with Alesia a year ago for my wedding & upon messaging her, I can already tell I wanted to book with her. Alesia’s super sweet, so accommodating, very responsive & overall just an amazing person. She really pays attention to the look you want & does a flawless job each time. Alesia did my makeup for my engagement photo shoot as well. I don't usually wear make-up, so I wanted to make sure my make-up was subtle, but just enough to give me that little extra.I

Her work was more than I could have hoped for! Alesia is so patient, talented, and professional that she made my experience not only perfect, but memorable. She worked with me through last minute panicked schedule additions, even if it meant coming at 5am to start. The day of my wedding, she stayed well past her required hair and make-up time just to see me through the beginning of my day and to help me wherever I needed... Whether it was pretending to put my lipstick on for 10 minutes so my photographer could get the perfect getting ready photo or dealing with the craziness of my family... In the end she made the process absolutely painless... And she really felt like just another friend sharing my special day.

I could not recommend her enough...

My husband and I decided to elope in Paris, and had a very small wedding, as it was a little less than 10 people. However, that did not stop Alesia from making me feel just as beautiful as I always imagined on that special day. Its very hard to plan a wedding on such a distance, but thanks to Wedding Wire I could find Alesia. Her communication is prompt and direct, and she went with the flow as my details changed a million times throughout the planning process. She came to the event venue on the day of to did my two bridesmaid's, my aunt's and my hair and makeup . She was extremely professional yet fit right in with my crazy family. To say she added to the fun and exciting vibe we had going as we were getting ready is an understatement. Alesia was seriously perfect in every way and really is amazing.
She completely blew me away with how BEAUTIFUL I felt! I highly recommend her!

Alesia was an absolute joy to work with. After comparing several vendors online, I went with Alesia because she was seemed to understand exactly what I envisioned for my wedding and she was well-versed in retro makeup and hair. I first met her when we did engagement photos/makeup trial back in January. Alesia was fantastic! She was such a good listener and did an amazing job translating what I described to her into a reality. She gave me tips on makeup and helped me understand what would work best on my big day.

Between hiring Alesia and the wedding she was communicative, responsive, and great at reminding me of details. She sent a detailed description with what she needed from myself and the bridal party to make the day go smoothly and she was flexible with communication style (texting, email, calls, etc.).

On the day of the wedding, Alesia was punctual and ready for anything. She brought a team consisting of two other great artists to help get my entourage ready and the team worked really well together. Alesia never lost track of time, she was articulate and in-charge of her entire operation. She was kind and understanding of me (I was nervous and hungry).

As for the work she did, it was amazing! My hair and makeup were stunning and I couldn't believe how they lasted the entire night! I think I had my makeup done at around 11am and the party ended at midnight. My makeup was still perfect at midnight!

The bridal party also looked amazing. I requested retro hairstyles (we had a couple of victory rolls and some pin curls and even a chignon knot!). I couldn't have asked for a better artist on my special day and I would recommend Alesia wholeheartedly.
