I highly recommend Karen and the entire Bridal Beauty Experts team! Karen is extremely professional, personable and patient. During my trial session, she really listened to me, reviewed pictures and talked through the “look” I wanted for my big day in great detail before we got started. She exceeded my expectations – I LOVED my makeup!!

It’s important to mention – not only is Karen insanely talented, but she is also one of the kindest, most positive people I have ever met. The morning of my wedding, Karen and her team arrived on time and moved throughout the getting-ready period with a calm demeanor and stress-free attitude—the kind of people you want with you on such an important day. They did my mom’s makeup and all my bridesmaids’ makeup too, and everyone loved it! People were commenting all day long about how gorgeous everyone looked, and the makeup lasted throughout the night.

Trusting Karen with our makeup services was the best decision I could have ever made. I’ll be forever thankful for her amazing skills and positive vibes. If you’re looking for topnotch makeup artists, book the Bridal Beauty Experts ASAP! 10/10 would recommend!!

We love Karen and her crew. They are sooo kind, on time, flexible, and have everything you need for you to feel beautiful on your wedding day. Karen did my makeup for my quinceañera 7 years ago and I had the privilege of her doing my makeup for my wedding. Book her now, you won’t regret it.

As an Actor and Professional Dancer, I have had my make up done numerous times on set. Let’s just say I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. When it came to my own wedding, I didn’t want any of the three. I had to have the best – the problem was I didn’t know what that was, until I was lucky enough to have a dear industry friend refer Karen to me. My makeup has never looked so flawless and natural but with just enough glamour. Karen listened to what I envisioned and gave valuable, stylish input, while being professional, caring and fun. My make up was 100% in tact at the end of the night, even after shedding tears during the service! I have now referred her to many other clients, industry friends and personally use her every time I need my make up done professionally (or just every chance I get). I have friends that hate their photographs because of the way their make up turned out. Don’t trust anything less than the best on your once in a lifetime memory! Katherine Slatery.

Karen and I have worked together creating various looks for several years now so when it came to my Gatsby themed wedding, I knew she would be the perfect hair/make up artist to bring my vision to life!  I absolutely loved my look that day-from the dramatic glam makeup, to my vintage inspired finger wave curls. I look forward to working with Karen and her team again in the future and highly recommend her for your hair/makeup artistry needs! -Ashley

Karen and the rest of the team were awesome! The trial run was amazing and made me feel at ease to know that my wedding day would be stress free in this department! My makeup was flawless and my hair was like a fairytale princess! My entire wedding party used them also! I had 10 bridesmaids who all got their hair done and everyone was so excited to see the finished product! I am going to use them again for my post bridal shoot coming up soon! I would highly recommend them to all brides! You wil be glad you spent the extra money!

I had a great experience with Karen. The make up and hair turned out exactly how I wanted it and I can say my make up also stayed on all day, through the tears, sweat and everything else. I was overall very pleased. All my bridesmaids looked beautiful as well. I definitely recommend The Bridal Beauty Experts based on their level of knowledge on beauty.

I had never worked with Karen before but she came highly recommended for my wedding makeup. I hired her and flew her in to Milwaukee. Without being able to do a makeup trial due to the distance between us, I felt really nervous since I’m a total planner. Then, a few days before the wedding, I asked her to do my hair too. Well, Karen was worth every single penny. Never had someone been able to achieve an up-do with my hair the way she did by listening to my wants. My makeup was was perfect and stayed intact all night even though I was here and there (outside, inside, dancing). I originally decided to hire Karen for the wrong reasons (which simply was that I wanted to look pretty) and realized that in reality, I made the best decision because the investment translated into amazing photos and memories for the ENTIRE day since I was so confident. Not once did I need to touch up my makeup. Not once did my lip color (which she blended into a beautiful color that matched my skin) come off (how is this even possible!!). I can gush about Karen on and on but you know you made the right decision when everyone at your wedding reception, including dads, were complimenting your look all night and telling me how beautiful I was. I wish every single bride could feel the way Karen made me feel. I am so thankful for her talent and for her agreeing to travel to MIlwaukee work with me and my bridal party. Thank you so much Karen, you are a treasure and a lovely person
