Palace Hotel Wedding Makeup and Hair

“Dearest Mei, Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job with my hair and makeup. You made me look naturally beautiful and that made me the most happiest bride in the world! I hope you noticed that in my wedding pictures :) You are such a talented artist and I am very grateful and honored to have had you there as I prepared for my big day. We also wanted to thank Robert and Jack for being there as well!

I will definitely recommend you to everyone I know who we be getting married. Thanks again, Mei… You are a very sweet and beautiful person and I’m so happy that I met you. Take care and I wish you well, Love April”

April booked us for her makeup and hair nearly a year in advance for her July 4th weekend wedding at the Palace Hotel. This proved to be a wise decision on her part, as we had over 100 inquiries for her date from when she booked us. After attending her bridal trial in late 2009, she added eight more people for hair and makeup.

Julie + Ryan | Bear Flag Farm (Hair and Makeup)

We met Julie early this year at her bridal trial for her wedding at Bear Flag Farm, just a few miles from the UC Davis Campus in Winters, CA.

Julie originally wanted a soft natural look, and after previewing our bridal trial photos, she decided to go with slightly bolder features. After taking detailed notes, on the day of the wedding we confirmed the changes and were set to work with her and her party. This photo is from her trial at our studio in San Francisco:

After we got ready at their bridal suite, Julie worked with Mei on the farm for some quick touch-ups.

Julie’s was the first wedding of the season at Bear Flag Farm, and we were so thrilled to work with Tina and the crew prior to their ceremony. These shots are courtesy of the very talented Sherman Chu, a skilled photographer who has a gift for capturing the best wedding moments, see below:

Dana and Jeremy

We knew there was something special about Dana when we first met her for her trial. She was easy going and all smiles, and we had a great time going over her hair and makeup looks. Mei and Dana decided on an updo with an elaborate side bun — Dana brought the perfect hairpin for the bun.

On the wedding day, we arrived at the Omni Hotel to setup our on-location gear. The atmosphere was relaxed and the entire bridal party was great to work with.
