    Great team

    Vanessa was a great coordinator; she was quick at responding and communicating with me.

    Carrie was a great artist; she made sure I was comfortable and satisfied with everything. I'm thankful that she was patient with some of the makeup, when we were unsure of what we wanted and had to change some looks.

    I liked their website because of all the information, such as pricing, and how to prepare.

    Due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to move our wedding to an earlier date. We are truly grateful to Finding Forever After for accommodating us on such short notice. The girls were very professional and fun to work with. The hair and make up results were fantastic and we received several compliments from our guests. The only feedback we would offer is the tardiness in communication and response time. Otherwise, I would recommend them to a friend. Thanks again!

    Casey Lee did an amazing job with my hair and makeup for both the wedding and engagement shoot. She was always on time and very professional. The company was hard to get ahold of int he days leading up to the wedding trying to confirm details but once they were reached it was all sorted out.

    I hired Finding Forever After for my makeup, 4 bridesmaids, my mom and my mother-in-law. We had 2 hair stylists and 2 makeup artists meet us at the hotel suite that we were getting ready. All four ladies were on time and were very professional! They stuck to the timeline and we finished earlier than anticipated. I had a few changes from my trial and there were no problems making the requested changes. Even the photographer remarked at how organized and relaxed everybody was while getting ready!

    Could not be more disappointed with their services! I was recently in a wedding that had hired Finding Firever After. It took 3 of us bridesmaids calling and emailing before anyone got ahold of our bride to book her trial, a month before the wedding! We started calling 4 months in advance, poor, poor customer service for sure. I only received a call back when I left the request for my own upcoming wedding, and redirected the call. My best friends trial went very well, and she was beyond happy with both her hair and makeup. Her vision of her wedding look was spot on! Everything we photographed and documented to make sure everything got executed correctly the day of. Fast forward to the wedding day. Out of 6 girls that got their hair done, only one got what was requested. I can barely curl my own hair nicely, but would have rather done that, then be stuck with the styles we received. We only provides pictures and references for our looks, but that was not the end result. Dozens of bobby pins showing, back combing showing everywhere and just a complete lack of technical skill. Two girls actually completely redid their hair to make it look suitable, as the stylist didn't have any time to fix any hair styles. In regards to makeup, we were told that eyelashes would be provided yet she only showed up with one pair. Thankfully we brought spares with us to the brides house. Every single girl redid their own makeup. The bride was in tears after seeing her hair and makeup, and not beautiful tears, heartbroken ones. Nothing looked like the trial photos, not even a little. Overall the services provided were extremely overpriced, and a complete waste of money. As a upcoming bride myself, I would not wish this on any bride for her wedding day. I will advise any and all that I know, not to book Finding Forever Afters services. I am just so glad that the girls in the bridal party were so fantastic and were able to remedy the situation and bring our bride her vision.

    Fabulous! On time, professional, and caring. Carrie spent two hours with me at my bridal hair trial until we got the look I wanted, and on my wedding day she was right on time and made my bridesmaids and I absolutely gorgeous!

    Casey-Lee and Jordan were excellent. There were no complaints whatsoever from the bridal party or the mothers. They even fit my husband's nana in! They had arrived a little late, but finished up quickly.
    Communication up to the wedding day was great. Speedy responses and they were able to accommodate all changes.
    My one small complaint is that the stylists got lost as they had been given the address of the camp where our wedding was held and not the maps that I had provided. The address directs you to the other side of the highway where the camp picks up their mail.
    Once they found their way, everything else went swimmingly!

    I booked my hair and makeup through this company. I was happy with my makeup for my trial but the girl that did my hair did it in about 15 minutes and it wasn't what I wanted and she wasn't very friendly. After requesting a different stylist, I did a second trial. I was equally disappointed. I found the stylist, although enthusiastic, was quite green. On the day of I had her do my bridesmaids hair, which she was able to do but she was unable to do my mother-in-law's hair. I hired an independent stylist to do my hair (which she executed beautifully) and she ended up stepping in to fix my MIL's hair. It was quite disappointing. The makeup was beautiful but my stylist (who works at a makeup academy) pointed out that she wasn't using proper sanitary procedures. Thank goodness nobody had cold sores or anything. Overall, I would say go elsewhere, get recommendations from trusted stylists or call the beauty schools in town - they can recommend highly-skilled graduates (what I should have done in the first place!!!)

    Finding Forever after did the hair and makeup for my wedding along with my two bridesmaids and my mothers hair. Mallory came to my house for the trial last fall which was great because I had a three month old at the time. She documented everything we did with photons and went over them with me again before the wedding. The day of the wedding she came with an assistant so we wouldn't have to start as early. Everyone looked beautiful and the styles lasted all night. Highly recommend them.
