Fall Wedding Makeup with Leah- Frog Pond Bed and Breakfast, Skaneateles NY

I think the best way to blog this bride's experience is through her own words in a review she wrote about us. Five stars is what we strive for and we're glad we delivered!

Holly and her team were recommended to me by my trusted hairstylist and they did not disappoint. They arrived exactly when they promised and were set up promptly without any questions or help from myself or my bridal party (as most brides can attest, having people ask you dozens of questions the morning of your wedding can be a little nerve-wracking--their calmness and professionalism really put me at ease.) Holly and Christina proceeded to complete a total of nine applications--myself, six bridesmaids, my mother, and mother-in-law-- beautifully, flawlessly and right on schedule. Being a less-is-more believer when it comes to everyday makeup I was a bit worried that I would look too "made-up." Holly really understood my concern and I could not have been more thrilled with the result of my makeup--I looked like me, just better. My makeup lasted so well throughout our entire wedding day (12+ hours from the time I got made up to when the reception ended) that I never reapplied even a slick of lipstick the whole day. The lashes Holly used are beyond words. They are so feathery and so beautiful, dozens of women at our wedding were dying to know where I got them and how they could get them too. Another incredible thing about Holly and her team is their versatility. While myself and some of my bridesmaids are minimal makeup wearers, I had some people in my party with very glamorous much more daring makeup styles. They were able to deliver a more dramatic look for those people while still fitting in with the overall look of the bridal party and not taking away from my look as the bride. Work aside, their personalities are so geniune and so nice--they truly are so happy to be a part of your day. I felt nothing but positivity from them and am looking for any excuse I can find to hire them again. Can't say enough good things about them!!

It was pretty chilly in Skaneateles and these girls made the best of it!

It wouldn't be  October in  Upstate New York without a little snow. Yup. Snow.

Sandra's Mirbeau Inn and Spa wedding makeup in Skaneateles NY

One of the reasons I love Mirbeau Inn and Spa is it is such a serene environment for a bride to get ready in. I was so happy Sandra agreed to have her makeup done on the patio area outside of her room. Natural light is the best to do makeup in and the location gave us plenty of light!
And imagine my surprise when photographer Mary Buttolph was climbing in a tree to get this shot! 


The gardens make a beautiful backdrop!

So many fun and unique details!
I totally have a thing for posting brides shoes. I love how the shoes can show a bride's style and personality!

Abigail's Skaneateles Summer Wedding Makeup- The Sherwood Inn Skaneateles, NY


I'm not going to lie. The day of Abigail's wedding it was hot. Actually, for Skaneateles NY in June, it was REALLY HOT! But that didn't bother Abigail and her girls. Abigail had done a makeup preview with myself prior to her wedding, so she had no doubt her makeup was staying put regardless of the temperature.

Abigail and her party her makeup artistry team come to her at The Sherwood Inn  in Skaneateles.
They have a beautiful room that is 3 walls of windows. Perfect for natural light to apply makeup and for photographers to catch some beautiful shots.

Special thanks to Mary Buttolph for sending Abigail to us! I love that Mary appreciates how makeup and photography can go hand in hand! 


Love the Lockwood Lavender Farm location chosen for the ceremony.

The lavender dresses were a perfect compliment to the Lockwood Lavender Farm setting.

What a stunning ending to an amazing day!
