Ivelina did the most amazing glam makeup for me and my bridal party. She did a great trial and made tweaks to make the big day absolutely perfect. She was kind to all and super professional - arrived early, cleaned up everything, left me with a touch up kit. Can’t say enough good about Ivelina!

Ivelina was a miracle!! I had a hair stylist set up for about 5 months and 2 weeks before my wedding I unfortunately had to cancel with them. I frantically looked around for a new stylist and Ivelina was my saving grace. She was so quick to respond and SO willing to help! My hair turned out incredible on the day of, even without a trial. She was able to pinpoint exactly what I wanted and truly delivered above and beyond. 10/10 recommend!!!

Ivelina did my bridal party’s and my makeup for my wedding day and I absolutely loved her work! She knows her stuff but yet she’s very humble. Highly recommend.

Ivelina is an amazing artist and does killer hair as well as make up. I can’t speak highly enough of her skills or how enjoyable it was to sit and chat with her! I booked Ivelina three days before my micro wedding and she was immediately responsive and worked everything out with me within one day. On the day of, she arrived exactly on time and was so flexible to allow me to finish a few tasks up and even read my husband’s letter in between doing hair and makeup. Ivelina sets a great mood while she works with fun music, and despite saying she mostly does hair down she flawlessly executed the bridal updo I had been envisioning. My makeup was stunning—perfectly highlighted all of my features without overshadowing me or being unrecognizable. I will absolutely be hiring Ivelina for the delayed reception. Thank you for making me feel like a goddess!!

Absolutely love my trial session with Ivelina and having fun with my Glamnetic lashes. Ivelina has a practical approach, so if you’re simple like me, you’ll be thrilled to know that there is no caked on feeling with the amount of makeup utilized and Ivelina will check in with you throughout the process for your feedback. Looking forward to being dolled up for the bridal photoshoot in a few weeks. Thank you so much Ivelina! 💞
