Terrible experience please read before booking

I am not sure where to start with this review, and it’s all a little hard to talk about because it’s put such a damper on what was supposed to be a beautiful day. However, I feel it’s important to share this so that future brides don’t go through what I went through. At the beginning, the consultation calls were good, and she seemed professional. Then there were multiple cancellations/reschedules and it took weeks for her to reply. She responded that “it was normal in the business to not respond in weeks.” At this point, my wedding was coming up, and with the stress, I was not ready to find a new person, so I continued with Ky Elle and asked for a contract as I no longer trusted her word and was scared she would not show up to my wedding. She said she doesn’t do contracts but that I could trust her. At this point, it was 2 weeks before my wedding, so I did put my trust in her. The week before, we did the trial, which we both agreed she would have a hair person and a makeup person at. When the makeup trial day came, she was 3 hours late to the appointment, which was a big deal because I had my bridal party and out-of-town family waiting for me to start our rehearsal dinner. She did not communicate she was going to be late and I got a message that she was 45 minutes out and to “take a deep breath” after multiple contact attempts by me asking what was going on. She showed up to my house crying so I figured she had a bad day and continued with the trial. She took 2 hours to just do my makeup, and I was already late. She also did not come with a hair person, did not have the products advertised, and my look was not what I wanted (she did not let me know what was happening during the trial and even went as far as dry shaving my face). However, I just stayed quiet through the trial , hoping it would be done and I could just leave it at that, knowing I was not going to use her services. The next day, I let her know I no longer needed her services as I could not have that stress on my wedding day. She requested 50 dollars over the asking price of 99 dollars advertised on her website. Because of the terrible experience, I was not ready to pay her the 150 dollars especially since I did not receive the services that were advertised. A month after my wedding, she showed up at my house randomly unannounced with no prior communication after I fired her, and my husband had to talk to her. She was very disregulated and even brought someone with her who mediated/ regulated her because of the level of escalation she was at demanding that we pay her. At this point, I paid her the 100 dollars because we did not feel safe and wanted her off our property and honestly we were both just so shaken by this happening. I usually am not one to leave reviews, and I know that being in a vendor business can be hard, but this was beyond unprofessional, and I want to caution future brides from having this terrible experience during an already very stressful time.

Very kind and thoughtful!

Ky Elle blew me away! She was so very kind a thoughtful. She had a presence that is professional and calming which was greatly appreciated during the trial appointment and day of! She is skilled with her makeup and is willing to listen to your preferences, and play around with different ideas. I would definitely recommend her and her talents! Thank you!

Kylee is the absolute BEST!

From the first call with Kylee, I knew that she was personality we needed for my sister's wedding day. She is the absolute bomb, is so much fun and just amazing to work with! To start, she brought coffees and teas for us all on the trial and on the wedding morning, and after a rather crazy getting ready and rushing out of the house, she not only locked up after us, but she came in absolute clutch (basically saved the wedding) by grabbing the bride's wedding vows that had been left behind and bringing them to the ceremony. After the ceremony, she stuck around to help retouch anyone afterwards (which was incredible cause many tears were shed!)—not only did she retouch the wedding party, but she even helped out other guests and made everyone look and feel great! Furthermore, Kylee was just so awesome that we invited her to stay for the wedding, and she got some great pictures of the couple when the photographer was out, and also of the guests! And, the most important things, the bride looked radiant all day. Not only that, but she helped the groom out as well who had some breakouts so that he also felt super confident. I cannot stress enough how fabulous she is. If you're looking for someone to do makeup, look no further. 100/10 recommend!

Very disappointed.

Its taken me a year and a half to get over what i consider as a bride a horrible experience. Communication was horrible between me and Kylee. She was quick to respond and book a trial, but following the trial I never received a contract or confirmation she would be able to do my wedding. The night prior I still had not heard after many attempts. had to reach out to my hair stylist (who had worked with her in the past) who finally was able to get a hold of her for me. She then sent an apology and confirmed. On the wedding day my make up took over 2hrs even though the conversation we had at the trial was that she does these trials so she knows exactly what to do on the wedding day so that it's quicker. Trial took 1hr and a half but the wedding took 2hrs. On the wedding day, my hair vendor had left about 1.5hrs into my make up trial. After she had left, Kylee had asked me if she was able to adjust my hair as there were a few loose ends she wanted to fix. I agreed and then she proceeded to adjust for 45 minutes. At this point I was not happy but did not speak up as I thought it was in my best interest. After all this, she still had one bridesmaid's make up to do. At this point we were already 20 minutes into my and my husbands first look. She agreed to me paying her later since we were behind schedule. After all was said and done me and my husband missed out on 1 hr of photos due to this extra amount of time to adjust my hair. (Also I will mention that I never even received mascara, at the trial it was applied to booth top and bottom lashes but not on day of.) Fast forward to the ceremony. due to all the hair adjustments my curls were not as curly and the spot that was meant for my veil was now filled with 20 bobby pins and the veil was unable to sink into spot asintended. I was also told by my photographer that Kylee had told her that she could tell I was unhappy with my hair and wanted to "polish" it. I guess my hair trial and what I planned with my other vendor didn't suit her needs. Following the wedding Kylee still never sent a contract and demanded to be payed in cash. She then did not show up at the time discussed to pick up the cash, so eventually was kind enough to allow me to transfer her. If you are seeing any red flags in booking or anything then listen to your gut. I wish I would have

Would recommend, but some bumps along the way

The work Kylee did for our wedding was wonderful. Myself and all of my bridesmaids looked absolutely beautiful however, there were some bumps along the way. My contract had originally stated that she would arrive at 6:45am, the day before she then said she wouldn't be there until 7am which was then bumped to 7:30am. This interfered with the days timeline. I had 4 bridesmaids and they all had gotten at least an hour of makeup done. When it was my turn, the bride, she only spent 25 minutes on me. My make-up was not the same as what I had done for my trial either. My bridesmaids were upset that she had taken some time out of their makeup time to change songs as well as that they were not asked about any skin problems or what lip colour they wanted.

Great makeup artist in the Calgary Area

Kylee was awesome! I am a picky gal when it comes to my makeup being done and she went above my expectations. Also such a sweetie and very easy to get along with.

Kylee is the BEST!

Kylee will make you look, and feel so beautiful. We did a trial run (highly recommend, plus who doesn't want to feel like a princess more than once?) in which we were able to figure out exactly what foundation would make me not look greasy (I have an oily t-zone) and would last all night. I was so happy with my makeup for my wedding, this coming from someone who only wears mascara on a daily basis!
Price is well worth it, was myself, one bridesmaid, both mothers and 2 family members.

Amazing Wedding Makeup!

Kylee did my makeup for my bachelorette party and for my wedding. She is incredibly talented and so professional. I had so many compliments about my makeup at both occasions and was so impressed with how great it turned out. She made me look amazing without looking like I had too much makeup on. She also kind enough to give me a little sample of the lipstick she used so that I could reapply it during the evening.

I will also call Kylee up if I have need to have my makeup done, she is so fabulous as an artist and as a person.

Lovely experience

Kylee was amazing to work with for my wedding day. We did a trial and she was fantastic, she took her time and worked with me to get the look I wanted for my wedding day. The day of the wedding went smoothly, and my bridesmaids also loved their looks as well. I got so many compliments on my makeup! She is also just a lovely and kind person to work with. One of my favourite vendors for my wedding!
