Despina was Amazing!

Looking gorgeous at your wedding is more than just the day-of hair and makeup, it’s about building up to the moment to look and feel your most beautiful and radiant. Beauty really does start from within, and Despina helps bring it out.

We’re two grooms, and we worked with her for several months before our wedding with a package of customized facials to make sure our skin was ready for our big day.

Despina and her amazing grooming associate, Lio, did a “dry run” on the day of our engagement shoot, prepping us in the morning with a mini-facial, making us look glowing yet natural, and then staying with us during the shoot to do touch-ups, which was so helpful because neither of us have much make-up experience.

On our wedding day, Despina and her team of amazing hair, makeup, and skincare specialists turned the getting ready suite into a spa experience. They made us look the most handsome we ever could have hoped for on our wedding day, and that feeling of confidence exuded from us in our pictures and our whole experience of the day. Seriously, we never looked better.

In addition to us, Despina consulted with the mother of the groom, to make sure she felt as beautiful as possible at her son’s wedding. And they took care of the hair and makeup for our entire wedding party, and everyone looked amazing!

All this is to say that Despina cared about us, our beauty, and our radiance well beyond just one day. Despina will be our first phone call whenever we need event beauty support and she should be yours too.

She is also an AMAZING esthetician and facialist who makes sure we look our best year round, so you should check her regular spa services out!

Despina is top notch! From start to finish, Despina was able to take all my inspirations for Bridal Makeup and made me look flawless on my special day. She is so professional, kind, and is truly an artist. I even got a cute little touch up kit! I highly suggest Despina for all your makeup needs!

I can't say enough good things about Makeup by Despina! Despina provided make-up for myself, my bridesmaids, and my mother. We were beyond happy with the results. Not only did all our makeup look amazing but she was so professional and easy to work with. She listens to your requests, she's calm, and made the getting ready process a blast! Our makeup was flawless, lasted throughout the entire day and night, and was exactly what each girl wanted. I have never felt more beautiful and confident than I did on my wedding day, all because of her! I highly highly recommend Despina - you can trust that she's going to make you look beautiful!
