I found Stedman Artistry on here as if was recommended by my fellow brides. I contacted her about pricing and availability and she responded promptly to my request. We had set up my hair and makeup trial for this past weekend. Meredith, the owner and main artist, was very sweet and accomidating! We spent about the first 20 minutes or so really discussing what I wanted and what she thought would look good. She was so easy to talk to and she really understood what I wanted. I had a couple of runs with one other artist and an artist at a makeup counter. I was not very happy with them AT ALL! So you can understand how I was a little weary about another trial run. I must have been over there for 3 hours as we just kept chatting and she showed me a couple of looks!! I am very happy that she is available for my wedding!! Since I have a fairly large group of girls and moms, she assured me that she brings in only the best group of artists to make sure all of us are done and out on time.

I will definitely report back after the wedding! But as a bride who isn't used to wearing makeup, I strongly am recommending Stedman Artistry to all of you other brides out there. We didn't quite find a lip color yet, but she emailed me a blurb to give to the salesgirls describing EXACTLY what the look is so they can suggest some colors. She even offered to go with me to pick out lip colors! That's pretty good customer service if you ask me!

I really look forward to working with them on my wedding day!!
