  From my first call with Melissa, I knew I wanted to work with her. She had great energy and I felt like she really understood what I wanted to do for my hair & makeup. Communication was easy and felt effortless with All Dolled Up. As somebody who normally doesn't wear a lot of makeup, having an artist who could make me feel like an elevated version of myself while still looking like me for my wedding day was so important. Melissa really delivered. I loved working with her at both my trial and on my wedding day! Hair services were also fantastic and everyone was very happy with the results.  Great experience and added to a great wedding day morning. Would recommend!

  I absolutely recommend All Dolled Up for bridal hair and makeup! I had my makeup and hair trial before my wedding so I showed them my inspiration photos and it was exactly as pictured by my inspiration photos. I received compliments all night and after my wedding how absolutely beautiful my makeup looked. My wedding ended up being one of the hottest days of the week and my makeup and hair were pretty intact. I had 5 bridesmaids plus myself that needed services and we needed to be finished in 3 hours. I had 3 artists and they finished right on time and my bridal party loved all their looks!

  I booked All Dolled Up to do hair and makeup for my wedding, and was so pleased with their service! I am someone who feels uncomfortable wearing a lot of makeup, so it was important to me to have a natural look and feel like myself. Lynsee did a great job. After my makeup preview, she asked for feedback, which she then perfectly incorporated for my wedding look. On top of that, she and Justine made my wedding morning a breeze - they were professional and punctual, but also brough a relaxed energy that helped me stay calm. My bridesmaids were very pleased with their hair and makeup too! My only comment for All Dolled Up is that the online contract/invoice system has so much information that I found it a bit hard to navigate to make updates to our services. But that is a minor detail and does not overshadow the great service we received. Thank you again!!

  We love team ADU!! They went above and beyond for my bride, her bridesmaids and entire family. Everyone felt beautiful, valued and special (also looked stunning!!!). They were seamless to work with and would highly recommend!

  I highly recommend All Dolled Up to all my Brides and their bridal parties. As a luxury wedding planner, having a good Hair and Makeup team is key on wedding day! Not only do they need to stay on time while they create beautiful looks, they also are the only vendor that spends the morning with our bride...So it is important that they create the best experience possible! I have had brides with all hair types and styles and many brides that this was the first time they were getting their hair and makeup done by someone else, which can be a scary thought for wedding day! Melissa the owner and her team at All Dolled Up have always been a pleasure and very professional to work with leading up to the wedding day. And every time I have had the chance to work with them on wedding day, they always go above and beyond to make sure my brides and their tribe LOVE their LOOKS! I have to say I always have the most beautiful brides and bridal parties as All Dolled Up brings their beauty magic to make every lady shine bright! From Natural looks to Glitz & Glam, All Dolled Up is one of my preferred vendor recommendations every time!

  Took me a long time to write this! I had a good experience with booking and my trial run was decent, I was able to give feedback about my hair and makeup. However, the week of my wedding I was told that my makeup artist quit and they were sending a new one. I realize it wasn't their fault, but I should have been refunded. I ended up not liking my hair and makeup for my wedding and cringe when I look at pictures :(

  Destiny came and did the hair and makeup for the bride, mother of the bride and mother of the groom last Sunday to spruce us up for the wedding. She was absolutely fantastic. Pleasant, fun and SUPER hardworking. She did not take a single break. We all looked amazing--like ourselves but the best we've ever looked. We can't say enough great things about Destiny and All Dolled Up. Thank you!

  I just used ADU for my own wedding, and I ended up choosing them because I had been a bridesmaid at two weddings they did hair and makeup for in the past, and I enjoyed my look at those weddings!However, I feel the quality of service given for my own wedding was much less than what we received at my friends weddings (which were both in 2021). My venue was about 3 hours from their location in Auburn, so I was told I would need to provide rooms for the 3 artists coming the night before on Friday. I had to clean the rooms between the artists and my guests staying Saturday. Not a big deal, but one of the artists actually showed up at 6am Saturday, so she didn't stay in the room anyway I guess?All the girls scheduled to start first were on time and ready to go. I did not show up that early as I was the bride and wanted to sleep in a bit. When I showed up about 1.5 hrs after the scheduled start time, the artists were already behind. By the time we all finished, I think we were close to an hour behind on certain artists, maybe half an hour behind on the other. My planner had to play catch up since we were waiting on them to finish before moving on with the day.I was told I would get 3 artists for the 9 people getting hair and makeup. This seemed fine and I spent time making a list of who would go when as I had certain people who could not go early. But the week of the wedding, ADU sent me an email with a whole new timeline, not even filled out with the girls names. It was different because now the girls had to get their hair done in two chairs - one was to curl it, the other was to "pin it" or put it up basically. Only one of the artists was the "master artist" that could put hair up. The other was not allowed to put people's hair up, only curl it apparently. Then the third only did makeup and didn't touch hair. This seemed odd but I went with it and had to remake the schedule the week of my wedding.There was some confusion over this too, because my mom didn't want her hair put up, only curled/styled. It was not communicated to her that she should just get her hair finished by the first artist that could only curl, so she waited for her second turn in the chair to get "pinned", but she didn't want it put up. So when she got to the second artist, attitude was given to her on what she wanted if she didn't want it put up. She wanted it finished as the curls were not exactly what she wanted or brushed out or anything, but the artist was kind of like well what do you want? about it. I also asked for individual lashes after doing my trial, and the artist did not use these the day of.All of this would not have been a big deal at all if not for my hair. I got tape in extensions well prior to the wedding. I had them for my trial hair and makeup, so it was nothing new. My artist, the "master artist", finished my hair fairly quickly and took a picture to show me. I was not able to see everything super clearly since it was just a photo and I did not go look closely in the mirror, which was my mistake I guess to approve it and move on without inspecting closely, but she left many of my extensions showing! At least one right by my temple which was super obvious and many showing in the back of my head too. She pulled my hair back too tight, and some of my scalp was showing too. Which is NOT what we did in my trial. I was very disappointed seeing that when I got the first sneak peek from my photographer knowing they were showing all day. My friends fixed the one near my temple because they noticed it. Of course I hope nobody else noticed, but a person who styles hair for a living should definitely have noticed. My photographer had to edit A LOT of my photos. I contacted them and they said they could not refund my prepaid tip (mistake on my part, but they didn't offer any other refund either though), but they did send me a goody box.Overall our makeup was pretty good and everyone elses hair was nice even with the hiccups, but definitely check your own hair very well, n

  I wish I didn't have to have a thank you letter ready and waiting for the company upon the end of their hired service. We opted for the Hair only service. A total of 8 women, the bride and groom received their services. Out of the eight attendant's only 2 needed no further tucking, pinning, hair spraying, or all out style change. One of the stylist was extremely late from the start time. When one of the stylist left to take care of the groom 2-blocks away, the groom asked about using products to help with his look. She replied that she only had product for black people, which I couldn't understand, as she left all of her products at the previous site and was called back to retrieve them. The groom ended up placing his head under the sink water at the venue and simply brushing it back. I would not recommend this company for hair services. Mother of the bride

  Zoe from All Dolled Up was amazing! I sent over a picture of how I wanted my hair done and had no clue when it came to my makeup. During the trial run Zoe took feedback on how I thought the makeup came out and adjusted until I felt completely satisfied with it.
  
  I wanted fake flowers in my hair and Zoe took the time to place every single flower into my hair using bobby pins. The flowers did not move all night and I was grooving on the dance floor!
  
  The makeup also stayed all night long! I was a bit worried especially since I sweat A LOT and was crying happy tears the entire day LOL but didn't have any issues with it staying.
  
  Zoe was so friendly and welcoming upon first contact and really set the tone for the wedding day and helped make my day perfect from the very beginning.
  
  I HIGHLY recommend All Dolled Up!!

  I hired All Dolled Up for my wedding and I was so impressed. Communication was amazing and all of our hair turned out perfect. They were able to do updos and our hair down. I am so grateful I hired them to do my hair for my wedding. I would book All Dolled Up again!
