Testimonials

  • "They were so easy to work with for the trial and my wedding day turned out even better than the trial did. I had 7 bridesmaids + my mom get their hair and makeup done (s/o to Katy for assisting with makeup), and their schedule and timing fit perfectly with the wedding timeline that we even had time to spare after everything... Thank you for making my wedding vision come true!"
