“15/10 recommend BOL for your wedding. I am a SAPPY person and cried probably every 10 min for 3-4 hours at my wedding and my makeup looked truly flawless all night. Nicole was incredible, gave me the exact look I wanted, and somehow made it last through so many happy tears and some very sweaty dancing lol. Carmine also did an immaculate job with my hair and gave me the most elegant and stunning updo that looked perfect and lasted through crowd surfing, club after party, etc without falling out at all. These folks are professionals, y’all.”

I've been a HMUA for a little over 14 years, worked in the big city (LA) and now back in my hometown raising our 2 littles doing what I love most! I've worked all over the industry! I'm a licensed esthetician and really have found my happy place here with all my beautiful brides! I still love working on sets, all sorts of events but there's just something about being there for someone on their big day that never gets old. I've been a bride myself and can attest to the overwhelming mix of emotions that come with planning such an important day. SO I'm here to ease a bit of that for you as your day of artist! xoxo Amanda

“Amanda did my bridal makeup on my wedding day. We did a trial together and I didn’t know exactly what I wanted, only that I wanted to look like an elevated version of my everyday self. She guided me seamlessly through the process until we landed on the look. Then, day of, she executed what we decided on during the trial beautifully. And stayed on schedule. Also, genuinely a nice person and made me feel super comfortable. 10/10 recommend!”

“I went back and forth on wedding hair so many times, and I am so grateful I found Kelsey. She’s the perfect mix of warm, sweet, and incredibly meticulous. She truly listens. I kept wavering between an updo and wearing my hair down, and she walked me through what was realistic with my hair, what would complement my dress, and how to achieve the overall vibe I wanted. She brought my exact vision to life — a modern, slightly messy French-twist-inspired updo with soft pieces in the front — and it turned out even better than I imagined. I received so many compliments throughout the night, and best of all, it held up flawlessly through strong wind and hours of dancing. I couldn’t have asked for a better stylist. Highly, highly recommend!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Tiffany and her team did such an incredible job on hair and makeup for my wedding, I would definitely recommend her to anyone! To start off, she spent so much time with me for the trial (more than planned), making sure we had a chance to try a couple different things without any rush, which was so helpful. On my actual wedding day I loved everything she did, and my new husband said I looked like a movie star! I liked the trial looks when we did them, and Tiffany genuinely listened and understood what I wanted to tweak. When the big day came and we had the details set from the beginning, everything came out looking even better. She specializes in a natural-but-enhanced look and really nailed it - I didn’t feel or look like I was caked in makeup, I just looked like the absolute best version of myself! Trying to find pictures to include here I struggled to find ones that seemed like they were showing off the makeup - but that's kind of the point. The makeup wasn't super showy (exactly as I wanted), it just made me look really great in every picture! And this is from someone who often doesn't like pictures of myself. The other artists she brought for our officiant and moms (both in the pictures I'm including) also did a great job. They handled mature skin, thick/unruly hair, and curls beautifully. I’ve never seen my mom’s shoulder length curly hair look so good! They were also great company all morning, which is so important.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“TL;DR: Kim Baker Beauty is fantastic and you should absolutely book them! When looking for a hair & makeup artist, as a queer couple, we were a little apprehensive about finding an artist who would be well-versed in hair & makeup for couples and weddings outside of heteronormative traditions. My partner was a little worried about finding someone who would "get it" in terms of their style--more minimal and masculine--and who wouldn't try to push them into doing a more feminine style. Kim and Audra both totally got it! Kim was super communicative throughout the whole process and was so great to work with. Due to unforeseen circumstances the week of our wedding, Kim couldn't make it--but she immediately organized one of her other artists, Audra, who did a truly superb job. My partner and I both got hair and makeup services. I had a more classic bridal look and my partner had more minimal makeup and their short hair styled. We both absolutely loved the way we looked and felt amazing on our wedding day! We wanted a calm, chill morning while getting ready for our wedding and Audra was lovely, so kind and easy to talk to, and had a very calm energy. Our hair and makeup lasted extremely well throughout the evening, even through hours of dancing! Kim and Audra are total pros and made us feel stunning on our wedding day.

I'm new to Zola, but not to Bridal Hair! With 17 years dedicated to crafting beautiful hair, and 8 of those in Bridal styling. My experience aids to specializing in varying styles - from vintage, to boho, to a modern esthetic. Recently, my partner and I made the exciting move to Portland from San Francisco. I can’t wait to discover all the stunning wedding venues the PNW has to offer! When I'm not doing hair, you can find me trying a new coffee shop, making kombucha, or hiking with my husband and our dog, Livia. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

“How lucky was I to have found April for my special day! I got in touch with April through a referral from a friend who had nothing but good things to say about their experience. My initial consult made me feel more at ease and helped me decide what look to go with since it can be overwhelming! I also opted to see April to get my hair cut and colored right before the wedding, and felt confident and pretty, and enjoyed getting to visit and chat with April before the main event. On my wedding day she did hair for my three bridesmaids as well before styling me. They all had a great experience and looked amazing! April executed my romantic vision, and even added in some flowers to match my bouquet. I loved how it turned out, and my hair stayed up and secure all day and night. I loved working with April for my special day, but I love even more that we remained friends! She is fun, funny, creative, and brings a calming energy. She also continues to do my cuts and colors. I always do and always will recommend April!”
