Bridal Hair and Make up Trial

Amanda Bates Bridal was exceptional in every way. Their communication was timely, friendly, and detailed throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the hair and makeup they created for my trial was absolutely beautiful and exceeded my expectations. Amanda took my inspiration photos and created something even better than I could have imagined. My hair and makeup held up flawlessly, even after a beach photo shoot. I felt like the most beautiful bride-to-be, and I can't wait to have Amanda work her magic again on my wedding day. I couldn't recommend Amanda Bates Bridal more highly!

So, in getting married there are a lot of things to consider and to plan and book. One of those is your hair and makeup for your special day. I traveled down the research highway and it led me to Amanda. I’m so glad it did. Let me tell you, I drove just under 2 hours to have a pre-trial before I make a final decision on who will be taking care of one of the biggest parts of my day. I am so glad I came to see her. I go off of vibes when it comes to booking important things, such as tattoos, hair color, etc. Well, I can say she passed the vibe check. I walked in with no idea as to what I wanted to do, or a look. As my first wedding I didn’t get to do all this. It was kind of a rush and it didn’t fall into place. Considering the last real formal event I had my hair and makeup done was prom over 30 years ago. So I was so lost. We talked about a few ideas, she went off of different pictures from my instagram. And she delivered on not only hair but also the makeup. I’m a few months out from my ceremony and this made the choice as to who I’m contracting with. If you are on the fence, like I was. Book a pre trial appointment and get to know her. You will not be disappointed. I work overnights and currently still in full makeup and my hair is in place. Best was to check the wear when you have to work.

Amanda is one of the most down to earth people out there! She’s so genuine & kind with everyone. She creates a fun & safe environment while creating beautiful hair styles & makeup glam. She did a wonderful job on my bridesmaids hair, flower girls, & my hair/makeup. 10/10 recommend Amanda & her team! If anyone is like me & hard on themselves, Amanda will make you feel/look like your true inner gorgeous self.

Amanda did my, my mom's, and my bridesmaids' hair for my wedding. She did an incredible job, and all of our hair turned out flawless and held the entire day in the Florida heat! I did a bridal trial with Amanda before my wedding. She listened to what I wanted and was able to bring my vision to life! I have an undercut, and she was able to work with it and still give me my dream wedding updo. Her makeup artist is just as incredible as Amanda. She absolutely nailed the look I was going for, and my makeup held up just as well as my hair! She and Amanda were so much fun to work with in the bridal suite, too. The entire morning was full of laughs and fun stories! We also had a snafu - someone getting their hair done was late getting to the venue. Amanda was able to accommodate and came back to do her hair. She was absolutely incredible and I will always be thankful she was able to come back! I would absolutely recommend Amanda Bates Bridal/Sweet Southern Sass for hair and makeup.
