Kind Words
"Y'all. Melanie is the absolute BEST!!! I had no idea what to look for in a MUA other than creep hard on Instagram. Two different friends of mine recommended her and I was immediately taken with her work. She takes time to understand exactly what you want and is more than happy to make any adjustments afterward. I chose the airbrush for both my bridals and my wedding day and everything stayed in place for like 12 hours! And she's sooo fun to talk to! I felt completely relaxed around her, and my whole bridal crew absolutely loved her. My mom was nervous about getting her makeup done professionally, but Melanie is so wonderful my mom was immediately at ease. I'm just sad it's over, and I'm trying to come up with an excuse to get my face done again! H I R E H E R <3 I pinky promise you won't regret it."

FAQS
How early do i need to book?
I begin booking weddings 8 to 9 months in advance. As soon as your date is confirmed, I suggest reaching out especially if it is a popular date or in a popular wedding month.
Do you employee other makeup artists if needed?
I am a freelance makeup artist but for bigger wedding parties, I do bring along fellow, trusted artists to assist me.
Do you travel?
Yes! I am always on the road whether it be across Louisiana or surrounding States. I do also offer packages for destination weddings nationwide or international.
How do i prepare for my appointment or on wedding day?
Please arrive with washed skin free of any skincare products or sunscreen unless we have previously discussed. I will provide skincare and skin prep specifically for your skin type or the look we are trying to achieve.
Do you hold dates when i first reach out?
Unfortunately I do not hold your date unless a deposit has been sent and a contract has been signed. Once I send out your contract to you, your date will be held for 3 days. If you have not sent over contract or deposit to me within 3 days, that date will be opened up again.
