    Communication with AKBeautiful was quick and easy. She did amazing work, making me feel like a princess on my wedding day. I thought all my bridesmaids looked just as good - she was so flexible and friendly throughout the process. AKBeautiful truly contributed to making our special day perfect. My make up held up even in the rain and sorry I don’t have my professional photos back yet

    Alaina made me feel absolutely beautiful, confident, and completely myself, which is exactly what I had hoped for. I received so many compliments, and I truly felt like the best version of myself. Her talent, calm energy, and attention to detail made the entire experience so enjoyable and stress-free. The makeup lasted perfectly all day and looked amazing both in person and in the photos/video. I’m so grateful for her time, care, and artistry. Alaina, thank you for helping to make the day so special. I couldn’t have imagined it without you!

  • 5 stars! Over and over again!

    I could not recommend Alaina more! She was an absolute dream to work with since I decided to book with her. She is professional, yet so friendly and personable. She was so kind during my trial and made me feel very comfortable. On my wedding day, she made my vision come to life! She listened to all of my bridesmaids and made them all look gorgeous as well. I would recommend her over and over again!

The quality of their work was great, as they did an excellent job delivering exactly what I asked for. On the day of my wedding, AKBeautiful made me feel special and beautiful, which was so important to me. I would highly recommend their services to any couple planning their big day.
