I initially planned on doing my own make-up and hadn't booked anyone to do my hair.  As my wedding date approached I realized I didn't want to stress about doing my own make-up so I search this website and looked at the prospective vendors.  MVP by far suited my style.  I contacted Melissa via email on March 29th to book my April 16th wedding.  She responded almost immediately.   Throughout those next few weeks, Melissa and Edgar were very easy to communicate with since they both respond super quickly since they have email on their cells.

Melissa asked me a few questions about my skin which I then received a very lengthy email with detailed instructions on what I was to do to ensure I would have the best skin on my wedding day.  She also listed a few products that she thought I may like based on what I told her about my skin.  She knows her stuff!

I arranged a trial which I decided to change to a few days later and that was no problem.  Then, I asked if we could move the time to later so I could spend more time with my guests at the pool and beach and again, that was not a problem. 

Edgar and Melissa arrived on time for my trial armed with two suitcases of hair and make-up products.  They were super friendly and made the trial time fly by chatting with me.  I showed Melissa a magazine picture of a hairstyle and described what I wanted for make-up.  I must preface this with, I don't wear much make-up at all so I was nervous!  I did not like the first time she did my hair so we discussed what I wanted and she changed it.  She reassured me that I needed to tell her exactly what I wanted so she could do it for me.  The make-up turned out to be a bit more than I liked...too much eyeliner.  Again, she was very receptive to my wants.  In fact, I cried (I think the stress got to me and the fact that 12 people were waiting for me to head to Cancun) but Melissa was so sweet to me and told me to let it out and we would fix it to make it perfect on the wedding day.

Wedding day - Again, Melissa was on time and did an amazing job.  I asked her to use my eyeshadow in hopes that I would like the result a bit better and requested she didn't use as much eyeliner.  My hair and make-up looked fabulous!  I felt like a million bucks!  She stuck around until I got dressed and did some last minute touch ups.

Edgar and Melissa even waited around to see me walk out and down the aisle which was so sweet.

I had not budgeted to spend this much money on my hair and make-up but I would not have done it differently!  Worth every penny.  I have not received any professional photos yet but wanted to share some.
