Hey ladies!! I've been calling around for a makeup artist and they prices they give me seem a little expensive! For the bride I was quoted between 200-350 and 150-175 for the bridal party. Do these prices sound reasonable?

Also I need to find a DJ that plays great music including hip hop, r&b, oldies, and reggae. My dad is from Jamaica and reggae and even a little soca is a must for the wedding!! I also want uplighting and gobo lights. Is this all possible?

Thanks in advance!!

Re: Official African American Brides Thread

So...ladies..let's hype up this thread. What is everyone up to???

Re: Official African American Brides Thread

i need to book a DJ

Re: Official African American Brides Thread

Hello Ladies!!! I'm so excited that I found this thread! I'm new here but have been getting inspiration from everyone at LI Weddings. Happy Planning :)

Re: Official African American Brides Thread

Hi All, I'm new to the forum. I think this is a great thread. Good job, tetelove. I don't know if you have booked a DJ yet, but I am using MRG Productions. I heard them at another wedding and they did a good job. I also heard Body Rock at a Bridal Show and they were fabulous.


I'm looking for someone to sing a Stevie Wonder song at my ceremony. I would like that person to sing and play the piano. Any recommendations?

Re: Official African American Brides Thread

Thanks! I really thought we needed a thread tailored to the African American community. I actually ended up booking Ultimate Sounds. Frank is super nice and we looked him from the moment we met him. As far as a singer..um..no recommendations here. I'm actually looking for a singer myself...so I'll keep you posted. Has any ladies had any makeup trials yet?? Recommendations would be great!

Re: Official African American Brides Thread

I agree! Would like to know about make up experiences. Thanks to everyone for the helpful posts. :)

Re: Official African American Brides Thread

i havent booked my makeup or hair person yet! i really like this new hair stylist i found who just put my hair extensions in my hair. I found out she also does wedding hair and wedding makeup but she has a really small salon with just her and another person and i have a party of 12 people (including myself). She said i would have to start at 7am! Thats too early for me!
