With over 10 years in the beauty industry and a background as a licensed esthetician, I specialize in refined, skin focused bridal makeup designed to feel effortlessly luxurious. My signature style includes angel makeup, natural glam, and luminous, glowing skin enhancing your natural features while creating a timeless look that photographs beautifully. I offer an elevated on-location bridal experience throughout Lake Norman, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Western North Carolina, bringing personalized luxury directly to you on your wedding day.

I believe your wedding day beauty experience should feel just as special and personal as the day itself. From our first conversation to the final touch-up, I take the time to collaborate with you to understand your vision, make you feel comfortable, and create a look that reflects who you are. My goal is for you to look in the mirror and see the most radiant version of yourself.

    Beautiful

    We had such a great experience working with Beauty on The Ridge for our wedding day makeup. From our first conversation, we could tell that she genuinely cared about making us feel special and listened to exactly what we wanted. She's down to earth and so kind, and you can feel how much pride she takes in her work. On the day of the wedding, she made sure we looked beautiful and felt confident, going out of her way to make every detail perfect. She really knows what she's doing and it showed in the final result. We would absolutely recommend her to any couple looking for a makeup artist who treats you like family.

    My wedding makeup

    Kristen at Beauty on The Ridge made me feel so comfortable from our first conversation. She took time to understand exactly what I wanted for my wedding day look and gave me solid advice on what would work best. I was nervous about the whole thing, but she nailed it and my makeup looked exactly how I'd envisioned. Her communication throughout the planning process was smooth and easy, and she answered all my questions without hesitation. On the day of the wedding, she showed up prepared and got me ready without any stress. I couldn't have asked for better service and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist.

    Working with Beauty on The Ridge was a game-changer for our wedding day. From start to finish, the team was thorough in understanding exactly what I wanted for my makeup look, and they delivered beyond my expectations. My makeup came out perfectly and really tied my entire aesthetic together—the attention to detail was incredible, especially how they created that gorgeous glow that made me feel radiant. This is honestly the best makeup I've ever had done, and I could not be happier with how everything turned out. If you're looking for a makeup artist who listens, cares, and knows their craft, Beauty on The Ridge is the answer.

    Best make up ever!

    Working with Beauty on The Ridge was such a smart choice for our wedding day. From the first conversation, their communication was crystal clear and they showed up exactly when they said they would, which took so much stress off my plate. The makeup artist had me feeling like I was the only person in the room—she was so focused and attentive to what I wanted. The quality of their work was genuinely amazing, and I could tell they use top-notch products because my makeup stayed flawless all day and night. I left the chair feeling extra happy and confident, which is exactly what you want before walking down the aisle. I'd recommend Beauty on The Ridge to any bride looking for a makeup artist who truly cares.
