Luminary Esthetics

Erin did my makeup (and my bridesmaids' makeup) for my wedding in spring 2012, and she did a spectacular job! I was looking for someone who would apply my makeup at the hotel and who was reasonably priced - Erin is all those things and more.

I did a "trial run" with her about a month before the wedding and she understood that I didn't want to look like I was wearing a lot of makeup. I called her a couple days after my trial run with some feedback about how the makeup wore throughout the day, and she remembered that information when she did my makeup the day-of.

More than just being skilled and professional, Erin was a calm and steady force during the chaos of getting ready for the ceremony. She was also flexible enough to squeeze in my mother-in-law who decided last minute that she wanted her makeup done.

I would also recommend Erin's colleague Kayla at Shears to You (the salon Erin operates out of). Kayla did my hair for the wedding, and it was perfect. She was very patient during our trial run as we tried multiple variations on the style I wanted until we found the right one.

Erin, from Luninary Esthetics was completely wonderful! She came recommended by one of my best friends because Erin did the makeup for her daughters wedding months before and i was so pleased we got to have her do the same for my daughter. She did an amazing ourstanding job. She came over to do a practive session and after that i totally relaxed about the make up.. i knew my daughter was in good hands. The day of the weddding, Erin was calm and warm and added to the fun in the nicest way and made my daughter feel like a princess and look like a princess. We all completely loved her. I would highly recommend Erin to all of my friends for any special occasion. If I had more daughters Erin would be one of the first people i would call for another wedding. Truely!

Erin (Luminary Esthetics) is amazing. She not only was incredible on the day of the wedding with her help and patience but wonderful treatments in the months leading up to the wedding. She did such a great job I still go to her even though the wedding is done. My skin felt and looks better after facials and as far as both my engagement photo make-up and wedding day make-up there wasn't a single smudge and it lasted the entire day without any issues and we were outside on a mountain in the wind!

I cannot say enough great things about Luminary Esthetics and Erin Bledy. Erin is both a consummate skincare professional and an exceptionally talented makeup artist. She not only worked with and advised me on how to get my skin into tip-top shape before my wedding, but she patiently worked with me to create a look that was flawless and beautiful. I had a few trials with Erin – trying everything from a soft, natural look to a dramatic, glamorous look with false lashes and all. What we ended up with was something in between. Not too natural, but not too over-the-top. It was exactly what I wanted! She did such a great job, I barely needed a touch-up after getting tearful during the ceremony.

I would highly recommend Erin to any bride-to-be or anyone looking to have their makeup done for a special occasion. She has a very large selection of makeup brands, so with her expertise you will surely find the look that suits you. Plus, she’s a lot of fun to work with and made the morning of my wedding stress-free. It was so nice to have someone so relaxed, personable and caring as Erin. She was truly a calming presence during a very hectic time. –Marcia

Erin provided make-up services for my mom, my maid of honor and myself on my wedding day. She also did a trial-run makeup for my groom's gift. Her services were spot-on, perfect. She listened to me about my comfort level in colors and the look and I was so pleased with the final look. I looked like me, but polished. My mom was also very nervous about the makeup and she was so happy and relieved. Erin really is so sweet, and really calmed us down. I totally trusted her and recommend her to any bride or women getting ready for a big event. She is also very reasonably priced and I appreciated that she drove to my venue, what a great service during a very stressful time!

Erin also coordinated our hair sylist, Janee Noel, for the day. Janee did updo's for all three of us as well. All of our hair was so different and so "us." She has a fun spirit that really helped me get into the excitement of the pre-wedding beauty routine. She is the best. I was so relieved to have her doing my hair and couldn't have been more happy with the results.
Thanks Janee and Erin!! --jenny, vicki and siobhan

Erin, of Luminary Esthetics, did my makeup when my husband and I renewed our vows after 30 years of marriage. I don't wear much makeup on a daily basis even though I have a mild case of rosacia. The makeup she chose for me eliminated the high color. I felt beautiful and natural - not over done. I wasn't self-conscious--didn't worry that people would comment that I was wearing "makeup" or looked "different." I was totally relaxed and able to focus on my husband and family and friends and celebrate the joy of our special day. I recommend her without reservations. Erin is talented and skilled and experienced and most important when she does makeup she gets to know her client and understand what she wants. Erin's makeup reflects and enhances each individual - it's never a case of one-routine-fits-all. She's terrific!

Luminary Esthetics provided makeup services for the brides fashion show in February. She did a fantastic job. The girls were so happy with the way they looked and the photography turned out beautiful. We hope to have her back at the next NW Wed pro Bridal Fair in October.
