Had my makeup done by maekalah for my wedding And I don't think I could have made a better choice! The makeup is exactly what I didn't know I wanted. Told her what I liked and just let her do her thing and I received so many compliments all night on my makeup and all of my girls makeup! I will definitely hire her again in the future for any event that I want my makeup done for. Thank you maekalah ♥️

Mae was amazing to work with for my bridal makeup! She was quick to respond to emails throughout the planning process, and during my trial, she really listened to what I wanted so we could create the perfect look together. She absolutely exceeded my expectations on the wedding day. My makeup looked incredible in person and photographed beautifully. Beyond her talent, Mae brought such a calm presence to the bridal getting-ready space, which I cannot emphasize enough how important that is on your wedding day. She helped make the morning feel relaxed and enjoyable, and my makeup lasted flawlessly through the entire day, a sweaty dance floor, and the after-party! I was genuinely sad to take it off at the end of the night. I cannot recommend Mae enough to any bride looking for a talented makeup artist who will listen to your vision and make you feel your absolute best on your wedding day.

Maekalah was the absolute best MUA a bride could as for!! My girls and I were lucky enough to be glammed by her and her assistant, who were both incredible. Everyone raved about their skills and loved the way their makeup looked. My makeup lasted all night and even looked flawless after a 4 am swim! It was one of the best decisions we made booking her to glam us!!!

I honestly can’t recommend Maekalah enough! I’ve always been a little fearful of getting my makeup professionally done because I’ve never really felt like myself afterward. Maekalah completely changed that for me. She made me feel so authentically me while also elevating the look to be bridal which meant everything to me on my wedding day! From the moment I booked with her to the morning of getting ready, the entire process was so fun, easy, and completely stress-free. She was so kind, calming, and genuinely made the experience so special. If you’re considering booking Maekalah, DO IT! You won’t regret it.

Mae made my wedding day so seamless! I was honestly most nervous about my makeup, but she walked me through every step and was so intentional about making sure it was exactly what I wanted. My makeup lasted all night (and even into the next morning when I forgot to take it off 😂), looked absolutely flawless in photos, and was exactly what I envisioned. I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist! 🤍

I can’t say enough amazing things about my experience. Maekalah made me feel like the most beautiful bride! From the moment I sat down, she made me feel so comfortable like we had been friends forever. She is the sweetest person, so professional, and truly has such a gift for what she does. I absolutely loved my makeup and I honestly have never felt more beautiful. She made the whole experience so fun and special. I would recommend her to anyone looking to feel confident and amazing. 💕

I cannot recommend Maekalah enough! From my trial to my wedding morning, she took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted, followed my inspiration photo perfectly, and the results were even better than I imagined. I received so many compliments on my makeup, and I truly felt like the best version of myself. It looked natural but elevated, felt like me, and lasted all day and night (even through happy tears and hours in the direct sunlight)! Beyond her incredible talent, Maekalah is such a wonderful person. She brought such a calm and positive energy to my wedding morning that instantly put me at ease. She made getting ready such a fun and relaxing experience, and I'm so grateful she was part of our special day. If you're looking for a makeup artist who is not only exceptionally talented but also someone you'll genuinely love having by your side on your wedding day, Maekalah is the one!

Hiring Maekalah was truly my favorite decision I made for my June 2026 wedding. She and the assistant she brought were incredible. They brought so much knowledge and skill as well as great vibes to the getting ready room for everyone. I couldn’t have asked for a better final look than I got. All of my bridesmaids and our moms also looked incredible. Truly turned out better than I ever could have expected or asked for. 10/10 recommend hiring Mae for any and all makeup needs. I cannot wait to have her do my makeup again!
