who to use for makeup- HELP

ok i know there are a million posts on this but the 2 very popular choices are kinda expensive- M*I*A and Oksana do amazing work but a little pricey for me.....
Is there anyone else you can recommend for beautiful makeup???????

Post your price range - that will help people answer you. I didn't use MIAA or Oksana so I don't know how much they charge and if the person I used will be as much or more.

I used *** and she was very expensive but SO worth it!! She was amazing. Jacqueline Nicole is also very highly recommended.

Good luck

I really dont mind paying any amount for myself- I'll pay $100- $150 for myself BUT
the problem i've been running into is for the BM's -some MU artists make you guarantee a certain # of BM's to get there makeup done and the price i've seen has been around $100 for them and i think thats too much to ask of my BM's.... I would like their price to be around $50-$65....

Try Angel Eyes, I'm using her and I'm pretty sure she didn't make me guarentee a certain # of BMs. I actually had trials with some of the more popular choices on this site and I was REALLY unhappy. Makeup is personal - make sure you're happy!

contact Kacey from Khouloud's. She did my hair, and a girl who works for her, Zoraida did my makeup. It was just me and my mom, and they were in your range! I know Kacey does it too!

You should def call Jacqueline Nicole - she charges $125 for brides ($150 if you want airbrush) and $65 for BMs ($90 if they want airbrush). She did my makeup and I can't say enough good things about her!

That's a super nice compliment, thank you so much.

My pictures might not be the best to judge from b/c I don't have any pro pics posted and from the pics I do have, Jacqueline did a very natural look on me. During my first trial we did very dramatic and I freaked out - I only wear foundation and lip gloss usually so seeing myself in a lot of eye makeup was just weird and too different from what I'm used to. However, she can do AMAZING dramatic looks, and she did on a lot of my BMs. If you do a search for her you will see so many other awesomely beautiful brides. In fact, I don't think I've ever read a single rant about her. I highly recommend her!!!

I'm using a talented lady by the name of Priya. She is awesome. She does excellent work and is reasonably priced, especially since she stays with you throught the entire wedding! FM for her information.
