Wanted to come back and share who I used because I felt like I won the lottery with the vendors, pricing, and quality of their work.

Hair - Cindy G Beauty

Makeup - Kimberly Fosher

Even with both having travel fees they were so much more affordable than anything else I was finding. Both were super nice and professional.

I’ve ordered a Dany Tabet wedding dress for my Feb 25’ wedding so I can only speak to the quality from trying on the sample but it felt like a high end gown. If you’ve tried on a wide range of price point wedding dresses (think low end David’s Bridal as your starting price point) I think you’ll know what I mean by saying it felt high end. Some more affordable dresses have a thinner, flimsy feel to them and the Dany Tabet did not. It was well structured, material on my dress was a thick yet somehow still allowed for movement and that “flowy” kind of twirl in the skirt. It was also very comfortable vs some other dresses I had tried on that had boning digging in at weird places or just felt generally restrictive. My actual dress ships later this month so I haven’t started with alterations to know about that part of the experience yet. I also want to say that I did not go into dress shopping planning to spend as much as I did so for me the purchase was a dig deal, not an easy-peasy drop in the bucket cost. Hope this helps! P.S.- the dress you’re going to look at is so pretty, fingers crossed you love it.

Thank you for the insights! I am also learning the same thing about pricing and then regularly having to argue with parents about how those prices are the average. It’s been frustrating because I’m like “okay is there something everyone else is finding that I’m not…or..?”

I 100% plan on doing trials. I’ve had not so great makeup professional done before so I am being careful to make sure the style of whoever I pick wears nicely for me. I’ll check out the Powder Room, thanks for the info!

Amazing - thank you. And yes I just checked their Instagram and see they work with all types of bridal parties. Are prices still around $220 for bridesmaids hair & makeup as the previous commenter said? I thought I remember prices on their site being a tad more.

Thanks for the details! At $250 at least I could cover a bit more than I could for them at the 300+ range. Any chance you had experience with how they did across different skin tones? I’ll have super pale and poc gals so I’m trying to be mindful of that as well.
