“I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist than Ashley! She completely got me bringing to life exactly what I was hoping for, even when I couldn’t fully put it into words myself. Ashley made me feel like myself, which is truly all I wanted on my wedding day. Since I don’t really wear makeup daily, I was nervous about looking too done-up—but she struck the perfect balance. She listened, understood what I wanted (even when I couldn’t explain it perfectly), and brought it to life so naturally. I’m so thankful!”

Darling and Dapper Studio isn’t just a salon; it’s a haven for confidence.

With each brushstroke and hairstyling flourish, they build a canvas of inner beauty, reminding every guest that their worth shines brightest from within.

Awarded Best of Zola
“As the bride, I wanted to capture the fleeting, unforgettable moments of our big day (while looking my absolute best) as I’ve been told it goes by in the blink of an eye! I was fortunate enough to receive a recommendation for an incredibly talented hair and makeup studio from a family member who used Darling and Dapper for her wedding in October of 2024. After reading the different artist descriptions on the Darling and Dapper website, I knew Taylor Shira and Carolina Updegraff were going to be a perfect fit for what I was looking for on the day of the wedding! Taylor and Carolina exceeded my every expectation! What struck me most about Taylor was her ability to help create a calm, inviting atmosphere on the day of the wedding. She is such a sweet, energetic person with such a positive personality to boot. What struck me most about Carolina was her ability to recreate the exact makeup look from any inspiration picture you show her. She is such a sweet, warm person and she and Taylor are the exact kind of people you want to spend time with on what is typically a very overwhelming day! Their attention to detail and artistic eyes brought out the true beauty in myself and all my bridesmaids. I truly have never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day thanks to Taylor and Carolina. Taylor and Carolina are not only a master with any hair or makeup style you throw at them, but they are also true professionals. We chose to get ready in the bridal suite of our hotel and they both arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, and made us feel truly at ease throughout the whole day! Their level of communication is impeccable as they were always willing to take feedback (without taking it to heart) and truly listen to what you were hoping to achieve with your look, so we knew we were in good hands the day of the wedding. With our wedding being an outdoor wedding, on July 12th, in Virginia, I was slightly nervous that my makeup was going to be ruined before we even made it to cocktail hour, but Carolina worked tirelessly to support my dream of having my desired look (and boy did she succeed)! Taylor worked tirelessly (up until I left the building to walk down the aisle) to support my dream of having cascading curls down my back and cascade (and last) they did! My six bridesmaids all chose different hair and makeup inspirations and were all extremely pleased with their work. Working with Taylor and Carolina has been an absolute pleasure from my bridal hair trial session to the end of the wedding day. Their exceptional talent, professionalism, and dedication to their craft makes them a stand out choice in the world of bridal hair and makeup! I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone seeking extraordinary hair and makeup and an unforgettable wedding day! - Mrs. Canavos”

“I cannot recommend Isabella Vabre Beauty enough. I’m someone who is very outdoorsy and almost never does hair or makeup, so I walked into this experience knowing basically nothing — and Isabella made me feel completely comfortable from the very start. She is incredibly responsive, professional, and so kind. She has a calming presence that immediately puts you at ease, and she listens closely to what you want (even if you’re not sure how to describe it!). On my wedding day, she made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself — still me, just elevated in all the right ways. I would 100% work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist who is both technically skilled and genuinely wonderful to be around. If you’re considering booking — do it. You’ll be glad you did.”

“Society 11:11 and Manpreet were so easy to work with, and made sure I was comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day! I have curly hair, and was very concerned about finding a stylist who was confident working with texture. From my first meeting with the Society 11:11 team, I was at ease. Manpreet worked with me during my trial to make sure I had exactly the look that I wanted, and that I felt comfortable giving feedback about any changes I wanted to make. On my wedding day, she worked with me, as well as my sister, mom, and mother-in-law. She made us all feel great, while still looking like ourselves. I loved her ability to elevate our features in both makeup and hair styling, especially as a group of people who do not wear a lot of makeup day-to-day.

“Kristle is AMAZING!! Talk about talented and professional. She is incredibly responsive, and was by far the quickest responding vendor we had for our May 4th 2024 wedding. Our start time was 10 am and she was fully set up and ready by 9:45 waiting for us to start. She is so quick and was ahead of schedule- something that is almost unheard of at weddings and saved us. A few weeks before, she was flexible, allowing me to add another bridesmaid and a blow out. She was funny and kind to me and all my girls while still being incredibly professional the whole time. She put clip in hair extensions for me that I could barely feel and my husband didn’t even notice I had them in it blended so smoothly. I didn’t get a chance to do a trial with her before due to my busy schedule but she didn’t let that phase her and was able to give me the hair of my dreams- better than I even expected. Thank you Kristle!!!”

Despite an unexpected hiccup due to a wreck on the interstate, therefore delaying her arrival to the venue, she remained so professional. Her positivity was probably the only thing that kept me calm that morning! She expertly adjusted the schedule, prioritizing myself and my maid of honor so I was perfectly ready for my first look. Not only did she work efficiently, but the results were stunning! I felt more beautiful than I ever have in my life. She truly captured the vision I had for myself, my family, and my bridal party. Beyond her incredible talent, she brought so much joy and fun to our morning. Her humor and warmth added to the excitement and ease of the day.

“Prissy did hair and make up for my wedding in 2022 for me, my mom and grandmother, and she was fabulous! She absolutely made my vision come to life, is incredibly easy to work with, and extremely talented! I've never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day, and that is how every bride should feel. I recommended Prissy for my best friend's wedding, and she pulled off even more magic. My husband and I had a photo shoot done for our 2023 Christmas cards, and you know I of course had Prissy do my hair and makeup for that too! She is my go-to should be yours!”

“Kelsea and her team were amazing to work with. I am not usually much of a makeup wearer and asked for basically a glammed up version of myself, and she really delivered! I especially appreciated that she responded well when I asked for a small adjustment – she knew what I was asking for and was able to make me look and feel my best on my wedding day. Not to mention she made my fine, uncurlable hair look beautiful! Plus, my hair and makeup lasted through a whole night of dancing, kissing, and happy tears. I would absolutely recommend Artistry by Kelsea for any person getting married and wanting to look their best.”

At Adorn Artistry Studio, we pride ourselves on offering on-location wedding hair services that provide nothing short of a lavish experience for our clients. From the moment we step into the luxurious setting of a bride's chosen venue, we immerse ourselves in creating a serene and opulent atmosphere. Our goal is to go above and beyond to ensure that every bride feels like a star on her special day. We begin by taking the time to understand each bride's unique vision and desires, meticulously curating a personalized hair design that complements her style and enhances her natural beauty.

“Amberly is amazing with all hair types, which was my main concern when choosing a bridal stylist. I had relaxed hair, and several bridesmaids with natural hair, short hair, and extensions. Everyone’s hair looked gorgeous. She flawlessly did my clip-in extensions and hairpiece. Her timing was perfect—she arrived and finished on time, coordinating with my vendors to keep us on schedule. Every time I think about how we looked, it feels like my wedding day all over again!”
