I have been an event director and wedding planner for 15 years. When my time came this year to wed, I was particular in what I wanted and needed to work with a professional person that I may rely on explicitly. Stacey... is an absolute unicorn. She is one of the most professional vendors I have worked with in SD. She is responsive, fair, well-priced, kind, humble, easy-going and most importantly... excellent in her craft. I asked Stacey for a sun-kissed, California-girl look and she made all my bridesmaids and me look like we just stepped off the beach.

What makes Stacey unlike most make-up artists (...and so, so special) is her ability to create any look you desire. Most make up artists have one or two looks they have mastered and stick to them (hence so many pictures of brides look exactly the same). Stacey actually listens, takes notes, photos and guides you with her knowledge on how to get the look you want.

She is also so funny and cool, you literally want to add her to the bridal party on your wedding day. Thank you Stacey for being so awesome.

Stacey is THE BEST. Before I met her I was so impressed with her work and then after meeting her in person and learning how sweet, kind and friendly she is, I knew that she would be the perfect fit for our wedding day. She made me feel SO great and my husband couldn't stop telling me how beautiful and natural I looked. We had so much fun with her and Cindy on the morning of the wedding and she was such a calm, sweet energy to have with us during that time. Stacey and her team are incredibly talented, warm and professional, and I am so very happy we chose her for our wedding hair and makeup.

Thank you for everything Stacey!

First of all, let me say that I've never(!) liked my hair or make-up when I've gotten it professionally done so I was a little nervous about taking the plunge again. Stacey. Was. Incredible. Stacey and her team were not only professional and warm, they were truly committed to making sure every single member of our wedding party felt beautiful. They even went so far as to explain exactly which products they were using and why! I had a hair & make-up trial with Stacey a few days before the wedding (since we live out of state) and decided to make some hair changes day-of. Stacey was completely accommodating and I felt like somehow knew exactly what I wanted and created just that. My mother-in-law has very curly hair and was a little worried as she has had experiences in which stylists didn't know how to manage it and she was RAVING all day about what an incredible job was done on her hair. It really did look so gorgeous. Stacey (and her team) also had such a positive and fun vibe on the morning of the wedding and that's when some of the really fun memories are made with friends & family in anticipation of the day ahead - they really added to that experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Stacey and would truly use her for any and all beauty needs if I lived closer to California. Don't even look any farther - you've found your girl in Stacey!

Okay I know your are still looking for a make-up pro and hair stylist for your wedding, that's why you are reading this. Good news is you can stop here! Stacey IS THE ONE to do your make-up and your hair!!! I had my make-up trial and wedding day style with Stacey and her team in Carlsbad, SD. (Oh and we are from NYC :D)
Trust me, I did A LOT research. I had at least 10 vendors in one category in my excel sheet since the wedding was destination. I read all their reviews, visited their websites and looked at all the pictures. (I mean it was for my wedding, I can't be the only one right?)
Back to Stacey and her team, they are everything a bride-to-be wanted: know what they are doing; understand your needs; very professional and flexible; super easy-going and fun to work with! Oh everyone LOOOOVED my look on my wedding day! You have no idea how many compliments did I get for my braided up-do and my super natural look. Another thing I love her is because Stacey uses air-brush to apply foundation/blush/bronze, and that's the secret why all her brides look like a much prettier version of themselves.
Seriously don't hesitate anymore girl, contact Stacey now for the most important day in your life!! ;)
You are welcome if you get hooked :D
