Where do I begin!? From the moment I had my trial with Aaron and Leslie, I knew that I was in great hands. Not only were they personable and reassuring during the entire process, their knowledge helped me prepare for my wedding day in a way that relieved so much stress. The hair and makeup was beautiful, not just on me (the bride), but on my four other bridesmaids + mother-in-law as well. Everyone involved loved the results and felt amazing on my wedding day. I highly recommend BRIDEface Richmond not just for their professionality, but also for how seamless they made the process from booking until the day of the wedding! It was an incredibly positive experience working with them all around!

BRIDEface Richmond was amazing to work with for my wedding. Aaron and Leslie did an outstanding job on my and bridal party's hair and makeup. I was so happy with how I looked on the day of my wedding. They also did a great job with my bridal party, tailoring everyone's hair and makeup to their personal style - everyone looked polished, gorgeous, and uniquely themselves. They were also so fun to hang out with and made the atmosphere extra special. Aaron and Leslie truly care about what they do, above and beyond my highest expectations. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

I would recommend BRIDEface to anyone for hair and make-up! Aaron and Leslie made the day extra special and fun and of course more beautiful! Aaron did a stunning job with my makeup as well as my daughters and Leslie's hairstyles made the three of us look gorgeous for my wedding day. They are a dream!

I can’t recommend the team at BRIDEFace enough! Aaron, Jonye, and Lara were so enjoyable to work with. When trying to find a makeup stylist for my wedding, I was nervous because I don’t typically wear makeup. I wanted someone who I felt comfortable working with and where I still felt like myself. After doing the trial session with Aaron, I felt confident that I made the right decision! The airbrush foundation makes it feel like you are barely wearing any makeup and the individual false lashes he uses look very natural. He and Jonye did such a great job on the day of enhancing everyone’s natural beauty.

It made it even easier when planning that I could work with the same studio for a hair stylist as well. Lara was able to take my vision and make it look even better than I could’ve imagined. I brought one of my bridesmaids with me to the trial; she has extremely curly hair and was initially planning on doing her own hair. After hearing how knowledgeable Lara was and seeing her other work with curly hair, she also decided to get her hair done by Lara! She was able to take everyone’s inspiration and bring it to life, everyone’s hair looked amazing.

The whole team was so fun and made the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable. Do yourself a favor and book them now, I will be recommending them to anyone in the Richmond area.

Aaron and Leslie are the wedding dream team! From the planning leading up to the event to the trial to the day of, working with them was amazing. My bridesmaids all loved how their makeup and hair turned out. I didn’t know much of what I wanted for makeup and Aaron was able to take in information about my dress and decorations and put together a makeup look that pulled everything together. I couldn’t recommend working with Brideface enough and encourage any brides working with them to trust their expertise!

- Ann Griffin

Leslie and Jonye at BrideFACE were amazing! I booked this company to do hair and makeup for myself (bride), the wedding party, and the mothers. I also did a hair and makeup trial with them, which was great, as I was able to test out the look ahead of time. Despite having quite a few people, all with different looks and questions, they were both quick and steady with their work, ensuring everyone was in and out of the chairs on schedule.

The last hair and makeup was finished around 1, the party went until midnight, and despite rain, humidity, dancing, and more, everyone still looked amazing at the end of the night. The airbrushed makeup was incredibly light and the ability to do individual lashes was also a plus - we really appreciated the attention to detail and perks of working with this vendor.

Leslie and Jonye were also so easy and fun to talk to, we really appreciated their personalities and the light they brought to the day. I highly recommend their services!

The dream HMU team! When I was deciding to choose hair stylists and makeup artists for our wedding, I wanted a team that could do both, and BRIDEface is just that! Aaron, Jonye, & Leslie were so fun to work with and kept us ahead of schedule which made the morning calm and so much more enjoyable. The entire bridal party looked stunning!

Aaron and his team did an fantastic job! Aaron was professional, communicative, and made me and my wedding party look amazing. I wanted to look polished a bright but I don't typically wear makeup so I didn't want to feel like I didn't look like myself on my wedding day and Aaron absolutely nailed it.

Highly recommend BrideFace RVA for your hair and makeup needs! They did the hair and makeup for me, my family, and my whole bridal party. And every single person looked amazing and was very happy with how it turned out! Everyone looked so beautiful and comfortable and like themselves! We all got compliments all night, of course! And it was the loveliest, most relaxing wedding day I could ask for! Not only was their team so talented, but also so wonderful and fun to spend the day with!

Our stylists with BRIDEface were Aaron for makeup and Lara for hair, and they were both fantastic. They had a very efficient system in place to make sure we all got done in plenty of time for pictures without feeling rushed. Aaron was so nice and funny and did a wonderful job bringing out everyone’s natural beauty in a way that felt and looked right for them, especially since I, most of my bridesmaids, and my husband’s groomslady don’t wear much makeup. We were all super impressed with how light our makeup and false lashes were, and how well it all stayed when we cried! Lara was just as amazing with our hair. We all had very different hair types, and she made all our hair behave exactly the way we wanted, even if it didn’t normally! One of my bridesmaids has very curly hair and was so happy Lara was able to work with it so well, since she’s usually been asked to straighten her hair in the past. We all felt and looked so beautiful, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Starting with the trial, Leslie and Jonye were and incredible team to work with. Jonye was the perfect makeup artist to work with because she is an incredible listener but also gives you the right push to get the best look. Leslie took one look at my dress and knew what hair I wanted before I even said it. I left the trial during a torrential thunderstorm and my hair and makeup still held for hours. The day of the wedding they were just as incredible and my bridal party was in awe of their efficiency! My hair and makeup lasted all night and I can say the same for all of my bridesmaids! BRIDEface is an incredible team and I would recommend them to everyone!

I could not recommend BRIDEface Richmond more! We had an incredible experience with them from the initial booking through our wedding day. Aaron was very responsive and made booking an extremely easy. I had a large bridal party with 10+ people receiving hair and makeup services on the big day. The entire BRIDEface team was patient, friendly, and did an amazing job! Everyone in our party was very pleased. I also believe their services are priced very fairly. 10/10 recommend reaching out to this amazing team!

Aaron and Leslie were beyond amazing. We looked at so many vendors for hair and makeup (a lot of other vendors in the Richmond area looked orange....), and BRIDEface lived up to all the reviews and pictures. All my bridesmaids were so impressed with how good it looked, and how quick hair/makeup was compared to other weddings. Not only was it the best hair and makeup, but they were both so kind and funny - it made a huge difference on my wedding day.

Working with Adam and Lara were an absolute joy! I loved their energy and enthusiasm. They were very upfront about what they needed from me and what I could expect from them. The trial session was one of my favorite parts of the wedding prep and having them on site simplified my day. My bridesmaids and grandma loved their work as well. They struck the perfect balance of being made up without looking over-done. They kept the day light and stress-free, their timing was impeccable, and when they were finished, I felt ready. It was such a relief to know I didn't need to figure out how to look myself when I could rest those worries in their capable hands.

I honestly cannot even begin to describe how amazing Aaron and his team were! From the moment I met him for my engagement shoot session, he made me feel comfortable and right at hime! He is so funny and so knowledgeable about makeup and really goes above and beyond for his clients. As for my wedding day, they were prompt, professional and vibed so well with my girls and I! Truly could not have asked for a better team and if I can work with them again, I really would! My makeup and hair were on point and I think the photos speak for themselves :)

BRIDEface Richmond did hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids for my August 2024 wedding. I would highly recommend. Aaron was easy to coordinate with, friendly, and had helpful recommendations during the selection and booking process. Leslie did my hair and Jonye did my makeup and, oh my goodness, did they do such a wonderful job. At my trial run, Jonye worked with me to try a few different eyeshadows to find exactly the look I was going for, even though I didn’t have an exact picture to work with. I showed Leslie a few inspiration photos for hair but didn’t have a single design in mind, and she knocked it out of the park on the first go.

Aaron and Leslie from BRIDEface Richmond truly made our wedding day magical. After searching through various vendors for hair and makeup, we were thrilled to find BRIDEface, which lived up to all the positive reviews and pictures. Not only did they deliver flawless hair and makeup without any orange tones (unlike other vendors in the area), but they also impressed all of my bridesmaids with their efficiency and skill. The quick yet stunning transformation they provided was a big hit with everyone.

Truly Magic Aaron and Lara were awesome to work with and have great senses of humor. My bridesmaids and family had so much fun with them. I am not particularly well versed in makeup or hair styling and had great difficulty articulating/deciding the look I wanted or if it was even possible to create my vision. Aaron and Lara were both so patient with me at my bridal trial and were so receptive to any and all feedback I gave. Even when our timeline got a bit pushed back the morning of my wedding, they kept their cool and ensured everything went smoothly. Not only did they bring my vision to life, but after several full cries and dancing all night, my hair and makeup incredibly stayed in place! They truly make magic.

Book them! Leslie and Jonye were SO great to work with on my wedding day! Not only are they great at what they do, but they're just fun to be around! Exactly the energy you want on a big day :) Seven of us got ready in my hotel room wedding morning, and Jonye and Leslie were right on time with everything we needed. The moms were worried their hair and makeup wouldn't stay, but I assured them they were wrong! Everyone looked incredible all night long (even through the 35mph wind gusts during my outdoor ceremony haha!) I can't recommend them highly enough! You will be in great hands!
