These are the actual statements of some very happy girls. Will you be the next?
"I couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist than Dana! What can I say...she arrived on time (which meant everything to this bride), took care of my bridesmaids talking to each of them about their makeup and made my mom so very happy with her makeup; not an easy feat. My flower girl felt like a princess after sitting in the makeup chair! My mom proclaimed Dana to be the best makeup artist, and I have to agree. I can't thank Dana enough for her work and her expertise. She was a calming presence on such an important day for me, and I loved my makeup!"
"Dana Marie made me look stunning for my wedding! She did everything I asked and made me look natural. For someone who almost never wears makeup, that was very important to me. She was always responsive and professional and all this in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. She also helped me find someone to do my hair. Everyone is still complimenting me on how beautiful I looked. I never thought I would use a professional makeup artist for something beyond my wedding, but I'll contact Dana Marie again!"
"Michelle was the make up artist for my wedding and I am beyond happy with the trial and day of results. I would definitely use her again for any formal event in the future. Thank you!!"
"As the first photos roll in from my wedding day, THIS was the first vendor review I wanted to write, because I am just so pleased. Dana Marie was a doll as we set up our meetings over email, and WHAT a pleasure she is in person! She was perfectly on time for trial and day-of, used professional equipment, and is just a lovely person to chat with. Dana Marie listened carefully to what I wanted, made perfect adjustments when I asked for a few tweaks at the trial, and when the wedding day arrived, I was confident that my makeup would be perfect. I knew I'd be able to sit in Dana's chair and come out beautifully. Thanks so much, Dana! You'll always be a special part of my memories of that gorgeous day! (Oh, and there were lots of tears throughout the day, and makeup held up beautifully!)"
"Dana did an amazing job! My makeup was flawless and I looked and felt beautiful! I felt like I didn't have makeup on; I kept getting so many compliments from my guest on how beautiful I looked and I have to thank Dana for that! She is very professional and has the BEST personality! Dana was highly recommended and I will highly recommend her as well! I had the an AWESOME experience with Dana...LOVED her!!"
"Dana Marie was absolutely AMAZING!!! I can not thank her enough for the wonderful job she did on my wedding day, not just for myself, but for my bridesmaids, my mother, mother in law, my sister and my sister in law. Everyone looked stunning! The make up she applied lasted all day/ night, so no touch up was required by any of us. For me, she added on eyelashes that were amazing and stayed on until the next day, I LOVED them! We all go so many compliments on our makeup and hair, that I would highly recommend Dana. She truly was the best! Dana also had Kristie as part of her team. Kristie is an amazing hairdresser, who also made all of us look stunning! Everyone was extremely happy with their hair. Do not hesitate when choosing a make up artist and hairdresser for your special day! Dana Marie and Kristie completely exceeded my expectations and I can’t thank them enough!!"
"When Dana Marie met me for both my trial and wedding day she was on time, very professional, and had an detailed conversation with me about what I wanted and what she could do for me. I liked that she took the time to write down all of the choices we made during the trial and how natural my make up looked and felt. I have recommended her to people in the past and will continue to do so in the future!"
"Dana was a pleasure to work with. She was very professional and did an amazing job on my makeup and the makeup for my bridal party. She made us all look stunning, but still natural - not overdone. Dana was really concerned with making sure everyone was happy with their makeup as well. She let us check our makeup throughout the process and was very accomodating if anyone wanted something a little different. I would definitely recommend Dana. She is very talented, professional, and was a pleasure to work with."
"Dana was wonderful to work with, she is the best! She did an amazing job for my wedding. My makeup and hair turned out to be perfect. She is very professional, and made me feel super comfortable, and kept me calm as I was getting so nervous for my big day! When she was done I felt exactly like bride should feel on her big day, beautiful! My makeup and hair stayed fresh and perfect for the entire day. I recommend her to all and everyone!! Thank you so much Dana!! <3"
"I can't say enough abut Makeup by Dana Marie! Not only was she super friendly, flexible, and accommodating in all our interactions leading up to the wedding, but also on the (rather stressful) wedding day. She was very helpful and a joy to have in our hotel room where all the ladies were getting ready in the morning. Just as important - Dana Marie is a fabulous and talented makeup artist! My mom, maid of honor, and I were thrilled with our makeup. After listening to our requests, likes/dislikes, she created a very glamorous natural look. We all still looked like ourselves, just - better AND it lasted all night. :) Highly recommended!"
"I could not have enough positive things to say about Dana Marie!! She is extremely responsive, professional and so friendly! We heard about Dana Marie through several different vendors and friends, which right off the bat speaks very highly of her. She was so flexible with setting up a consultation and ended up coming to my apartment in Hoboken. Even on the day of my wedding, when we had an unexpected blizzard that was interfering with all of our other vendors, Dana Marie was there early and ready to go which put all of us at ease.
I absolutely loved how I looked on the day of the wedding and it turned out exactly as we had discussed and how I imagined it. My mom, who is not normally comfortable in front of the camera, was so confident that day because she loved how she looked as well. I would highly recommend Dana Marie to anyone looking for help with their makeup for their wedding or any other event."
"When I was looking for a make-up artist for my wedding day, I knew I wanted someone who was local to the area and who could make me look like a prettier version of myself. From the moment I first reached out to Dana Marie for a quote, I knew she was perfect for the job. She was extremely flexible with my schedule when arranging for a make-up trial and even drove to my mother-in-laws house to do my trial make-up session. She was very personable, professional, and immediately made me feel comfortable and relaxed even on the big day. She even offered various make-up options for my bridesmaids all the way from full-make-up to just doing eye make-up. On our actual wedding day she traveled out to our hotel and did my make-up as well as the make-up for 6 other girls and remained on-time throughout the whole process. She did such an fantastic job with all of us. Not only was I overjoyed by the way I looked, but my bridesmaids and step-mother looked amazing as well. She was able to give all of us a very natural elegant look, which lasted throughout the day and night. In addition, to all of this she was extremely reasonable in price and I called 4 other make-up artist before I arranged for my trial for a comparison. I love all my wedding photos and a large part of that is because of the work that Dana Marie performed. I am so happy that I chose Dana Marie as my make-up artist for my wedding day and would highly recommend her to everyone in the market for a great make-up artist."
"Dana Marie is an outstanding make up artist! She did such an amazing job on everyone in my bridal party and myself! She truly is dedicated & takes pride in her work! She was great about offering a makeup trial for everyone that was going to have their makeup done, so they got to see how beautiful they would look on the day of the wedding! She was great about delivering the "look" that each lady wanted, while offering her own professional ideas & suggestions! Thank you Dana, for excellent work!"
"Dana was an absolute joy to work with. She was so professional and made sure all of the girls were happy with their makeup. Dana arrived on time ready to go. She was even able to squeeze in one of my girl friends at the end. Everyone looked absolutely gorgeous. I felt like a pampered bride and LOVED my makeup. I am so thankful that I was able to work with Dana on my wedding day, and I would highly recommend her to any of my friends. Dana, thank you for making me and my girls look amazing on my wedding day, you rock!"
"Dana Marie did an amazing job on my wedding day for my bridesmaids and I! I got married June 26th 2010 in KEY LARGO FLORIDA in 100 degree heat on the ocean! Not once did my makeup smudge or did my face become oily! Every time I look at my amazing wedding photos, I cant help but thanks Dana again and again for making me look so marvelous on my most special of days! And for a makeup artist to travel that far, HAPPILY, to work just goes to show how dedicated she is to YOUR day and her craft!"
"Dana did such a wonderful job! Everyone looked totally stunning, and as the bride I never felt more beautiful. My makeup stayed the entire time as did the bridesmaids. She has a knack for color and picked perfect combinations for each of us. And it doesn't hurt that she's a total sweetheart and will make sure that you feel as beautiful as she will make you look. I've already recommended her to just about everyone I know and I know they've been equally as happy."
