About
Hi there! Thank you so much for checking us out! :-) Let me start by asking, what are you *really* paying for when you book bridal makeup and hair? Bobbi pins and hairspray? Skincare, foundation, or lipstick? Eh ... maybe, but not really. What you're really paying for is peace of mind and less stress on one of the most anticipated celebrations of your life. No matter how elaborate or simple the day is or whether you've been planning for two years or two months, hiring professional, trained, and experienced bridal beauty specialists buys you an opportunity to relax. Here is the short list of what we offer our brides: - Reliable - we're going to be there no matter what. - Professional Attitude: we infuse your prep time with a laid-back, fun energy no matter what situation arises. - Professional Products: we use high-quality, professional products to ensure the best possible results. - Experienced: hundreds of weddings under our belts allow us to anticipate your needs. - Tenacious: we will work on your look until it's perfect -- we don't give up because something is challenging. - Intimate: we are a small team, which allows me to train everyone, personally, and work 80 - 90% of the weddings we book. Years ago, I was trained by seasoned, veteran bridal artists. Today, I teach aspiring bridal artists through Multimedia Makeup Academy. I am not only responsible for my own reputation, but the ethics and professionalism of a whole new crop of artists moving into the industry. As an artist, I pride myself on being reliable, professional, flexible, and yet laid back and personable with my clients. My job as your personal bridal artist is to help make your special day go as smoothly as possible while ensuring that you look fantastic both in person and in your photos and I'm proud to say that I deliver on that promise.

Crystal was wonderful! She was very flexible when we scheduled my trial, and was very receptive to any additional changes I requested, either for my own hair or makeup, or for adding additional members to the contract. I'm very happy with how my hair and makeup turned out for my wedding, and my bridesmaids and mother looked beautiful as well! I highly recommend Crystal's services! Thank you, Crystal!

Hiring Crystal to do my make up for my wedding was one of the best decissions that I had made. Not only is she professional, her personality is just wonderful! On the day of my wedding, I had some red and dry blotchy skin that became a big concern of mine and how it may look for my wedding and for pictures. Crystal waved her magic make up wand and took care of it. I was so impressed. The make up held up through the whole wedding and I really ddnt even need to do any touch ups. Thank you so much again Crystal. You rock!! :)

Wow. First off, I need to say that Crystal is an absolute sweetheart. I hired Crystal to do my wedding hair and makeup. She is professional and so very easy to work with, it really put me at ease. Crystal is very knowledgable and extremely creative. I would describe something to her, and she knew exactly what I was talking about and how to best fit it to my look. She offered many ideas and choices, and explained how each would have an effect (i.e. make my eyes look bluer, or green, etc). I also have very fine, long, style-less hair. She made it look amazing! This woman is seriously talented. As an older bride (early 40's), I really didn't know what to expect, as my more "beautiful years" are long gone. Can I tell you I have NEVER felt more beautiful than I did that evening? I felt more beautiful that night, than I ever did 20 years ago. Even my best friend kept telling me "I have never seen you look this gorgeous!" My son told me I looked like a princess, and I honestly felt like one. Everyone kept gushing over how amazing I looked. I will absolutely contact Crystal Drake again for any hair and/or professional makeup needs I may have. Thank you, Crystal, for being an instrumental part of our special day, and for making me feel like the beautiful princess every bride should feel like on her wedding day! You were amazing, and I cannot thank you enough!

Thank you so much, Melissa! I had a great time working with you and I am so incredibly happy that you felt gorgeous. I totally fell in love with everyone I met on Saturday, including your gigantic dog, and those experiences make my job so awesome. If she comes up missing . . . it wasn't me. ;-)

Crystal AND Kyle were fabulous! I booked Crystal to do hair and makeup for myself, 4 bridesmaids, and 2 mothers for my wedding day. Crystal subcontracted our hair to Kyle and did all of our makeup. Both of them were professional and great to work with from start to finish. Crystal was great at communicating and had very prompt responses when I needed something. She even talked to my apprehensive bridesmaid the week of the wedding to make sure everything would go off without a hitch. The girls were talking about their hair and makeup the morning after the wedding because they were so pleased with how they looked. All of us agreed it was well worth the money and we would contact this duo to make us look amazing all over again. I have nothing but positive things to say and would gladly recommend both of them to anyone else wanting perfection.
