Virginia is the best makeup artist !!!!
Virginia was truly exceptional. My makeup was flawless, and my bridal party was equally thrilled with theirs. Our looks lasted beautifully throughout the entire day. Virginia went above and beyond in every way, and I am deeply grateful for her professionalism, kindness, and talent. I wholeheartedly recommend her.
Every bride needs Virginia
Having Virginia as part of my wedding day was truly incredible! She was wonderful throughout the entire process and made everything feel so easy and enjoyable. My bridesmaids looked gorgeous, and my makeup was flawless—it lasted all day and turned out even better than I imagined. Beyond her amazing talent, Virginia was caring, supportive, and attentive to every little detail, which made me feel completely at ease. I’m so grateful I had her by my side on such a special day, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any bride-to-be!
My recommendations
Virginia was the absolute sweetest and most adorable woman! From the moment I reached out to her until the day of my wedding, she was nothing short of amazing. Her bubbly and fun personality immediately makes you feel comfortable. I don’t normally wear makeup, just mascara, so having a full look done was a huge deal for me. My family isn’t used to seeing me in makeup either, so I didn’t want to look like a completely different person. I just wanted to feel glammed up while still looking like myself. I also have freckles and asked Virginia to keep them visible, which she did beautifully! I loved the false lashes she chose for me. At my trial we tried a pair that didn’t quite work with my hooded eyelids, but by the next session she already knew exactly what I needed. I’ve now had my makeup done by her three times, and I’ve honestly never had to touch it up once. All the ladies in my wedding party were thrilled with their makeup, and even some who didn’t book her said they wished they had. Virginia was not only talented but such a joy to be around. I can’t recommend her enough. Book her, you will not be disappointed!
My beautiful dream wedding
I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist for my wedding day. From the moment we did the trial, I knew I was in great hands. She truly listened to what I wanted—a natural, glowy look that still felt elegant and timeless—and she delivered it perfectly. On the day of the wedding, she was punctual, calm, and so professional, which made such a difference in keeping me relaxed. My makeup lasted all night through tears, dancing, and endless hugs, and I still looked flawless in every photo. She has an incredible talent for enhancing your natural beauty without ever making you feel overdone. I received so many compliments, and I honestly felt the most beautiful I’ve ever felt. If you’re a bride in New York looking for someone who combines skill, artistry, and a warm personality, I can’t recommend her enough. She made me feel like the best version of myself on the most important day of my life.
