I love finding new-ish wedding venues and love it even more when they're only like 15 minutes from my house. Barn in the Bend is a venue that has only been open within the last 5 years or so and they're tucked away in Madison, TN on top of a hill. So the ceremony overlooks that open sky, over the trees view and it's breath-taking. The reception is in the attached barn and they just re-did some rooms inside the barn so that there's actually areas for the bridal party, groom's

Another beautiful wedding at the beautiful bed and breakfast, Butterfly Hollow. Peyton reached out to me because she and Fred were eloping at this venue. I normally require a minimum amount of services, but since it was on a Wednesday, I didn't mind just doing hair and makeup for her only. The two had originally planned a wedding but now that they are expecting, they decided an elopement would be much better with less stress. Peyton was super sweet and great to chat with for

Cayla was an old co-worker of mine and she asked me to do her wedding day makeup. We did a trial run, she brought her own lipstick, she was pretty much the easiest bride I've ever worked with. Seriously though, I was already planning on attending her wedding, so why not take her up on doing her makeup?

A very cool-headed bride and was fun to get to know the couple of hours we were getting ready. Crystal wanted a soft "50's style" curl to her hair and a soft "Kim Kardashian" makeup look. I also did makeup for her daughter, Car

Hair and makeup for Aubrey's upcoming wedding was set up through Rachel Cothron Hair and Makeup. Our trial date about a month or so ago didn't get off to a great start because I was only supposed to do her makeup. We met at the hair salon of the hairstylist and she didn't show up. She didn't answer phone calls, texts or anything. Luckily, one of the other stylists at the shop let us in and we trialed away. Since Aubrey wasn't happy with the planned hair stylist, we decided ju

If you haven't heard of Thumbtack before, it's an app vendors use so that clients can shop around for the best quote for whatever service they're needing. I've been listed as a hair and makeup artist as of earlier this year and Patti found me on there. Patti and Mike are from Atlanta, GA and are planning their elopement in Nashville, TN at Riverwood Mansion. Again, I'm getting more and more destination weddings. Riverwood is GORGEOUS in person so I know they'll be happy with
