Donna was AWESOME!!!! She did such a great job with make-up for me, my mother and my bridal party. She traveled to the venue and she arrived earlier than expected! Highly recommended!

OMG, where do I begin on telling you how amazing Donna is. I'll start by telling you the first thing you ladies want to know, she is very inexpensive and uses MAC. When I reached out to Donna and spoke with her on the phone, I knew she was going to be my make-up artist and what an AMAZING job she did. I have deep dark circles and I was so worried about how I would look on my wedding so I told Donna this and she said don't worry just come in and let's do a trial. As soon as I met her, she worked miracles. Not only did she cover my dark circles but she made me look beautiful as well as my mother and bridal party. She kept in touch me through the whole time after I booked her and treated me like her little sister. She is truly dedicated to her work and professional and just incredible to work with. I thank her so much for making me look like a porcelain doll (per my guests and hubby) and will definitely work with her again for any special occassion. Donna you are amazing and have a wonderful gift in turning ugly ducklings into beautiful swans..... I thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you did for me....I would definitely recommend Donna/Divine Artistry for ANY occassion.

I dont know where to begin to comment about Donna. She is the world's sweetest woman. What a talent! she made me look AMAZING on my wedding day. All my BMs had different requests and she accomodated all of them. What i really love is that Donna doesn't just have "one style" of doing make up, she can do it ALL. she does the smoky look, the natural look, etc. My mom is very picky about her make up and she LOVED what Donna did for her. I found Donna through everyone's rave reviews and she lives up to them all and more. She woke up at 4am to be at my hotel by 5:45am. Had a smile on her face and great energy. I love her and would recommend her 10000% to all brides!

I booked Donna through a recommendation from my hair stylist and couldn't be happier with the results. Although her prices are a bit higher than average, it's worth the splurge—my makeup looked glam yet understated, like the best version of myself (rather than render me unrecognizable). She also did the makeup for two of my bridesmaids, my mom and my grandma, who all looked fabulous, and she budgeted her time perfectly. My only knock is that she never communicated to me that I would be responsible for buying my lipstick and lip gloss for touchups (she forgot to send me a list of products she'd be using after booking, so this never came up until a week before the wedding). It wasn't the end of the world since she uses MAC products, which are readily available, but it also was not something I wanted to deal with just a few days before my wedding! The end justifies the means with her though, so if you do decide to book, just make sure to ask for your product breakdown!

> I am pleased that this person was happy with her service however I must reply to the statement. In my defense, the lines for communication are always open. I am always within reach and always return emails and phone calls in a timely manner. It is stated after the trial is complete that I will record all products used during said trial. The contract is presented, read by the Bride and signed at that time. There is an opportunity to obtain product information at that time of which the Bride would be responsible for. I do not supply touch up products and that is also stated at the trial upon the Bride's inquiry. If product information is not asked for I do include a list of needed items with my confirmation. My business hinges on the satisfaction on my clients and I am truly interested in meeting all needs big and small. - Donna Gianfrancesco

Dear Future Brides, I was recently married on 12/31/11 and was extremely fortunate to have found and hired Donna from Divine Artistry. In short, she is amazing. Not only is her work incredible as I was told by guests throughout the night I looked like I had just walked off the set of a bridal magazine photo shoot! But, Donna is passionate about what she does and goes above and beyond her role as your make-up artist. I understand too well how difficult it is throughout the Wedding planning process to find vendors that you can trust and that care just as much as you do regarding the service they are providing. It was an amazing experience to have found Donna who, on my Wedding Day, was not only my make-up artisit but bridal assistant (she helped steam my dress !) I highly recommend Donna for any event and guarantee you will be overly satisfied with her service. She is amazing. Best wishes and happiness to all.

I first met Donna when I went for a trial in April. She did such an amazing job that I went back to her for both my engagement photos and my bridal shower. A little less than two weeks ago, on my wedding day, she worked her magic, making me look and feel like a million bucks on about four hours of sleep! Bless you and thanks again!! -Julie

I just wanted to thank you Donna for the magical job you did on mine and all my girls makeup on the wedding day. The makeup remained flawless all day long. All my wedding photos came out perfect thanks to you. You are a dream to work with, your personality really makes you feel like more then a client. I am recommending you to every bride i know.

Donna was fabulous to work with from start to finish! She did makeup for me, my 6 bridesmaids and 2 moms and everyone looked gorgeous is person and in the wedding photos. Donna is responsive, reliable, very sweet and patient and truly listens to your preferences. She was a positive, calming presence on the day of the wedding and I would highly recommend her to any bride who wants to look glowing and incredible but still like herself.

Words can't express how amazing Donna is. She made my special day amazing. She is the sweetest person and extremely professional.9am Donna arrived to the bridal suite with all her items ( from chair to makeup). By the middle of my wedding day it started to get crazy (photographer in site, florist in site , people knocking on the door; anything you could imagine)Donna was there to calm me down, assist me, and do makeup (without her I would be in panic mode).THANK YOU SOO MUCH!!! SHE IS BY FAR AN AMAZING ARTIST AND MY MAKEUP WAS FLAWLESS AND BEAUTIFUL! From the moment I had my makeup trail I new she was the one!!

I looked at various make-up artists on wedding wire and reached out to a couple. Donna from Divine Artistry replied quite quickly. I went for a trial and Donna did a fantastic job. We then discussed of changes that I might want for my actual wedding. On my wedding day, Donna was on time, professional, made me feel quite comfortable and best of all made me look and feel like the bride I wanted to be. This was a 2nd time wedding, but Donna did such a fantastic job that I think I felt like a first time bride and everyone said I glowed. I highly recommend Donna as I beleive she has a vision but works with the person and does not do just want she wants. She listens and works with you. Out of 5, I give her a 10

" I was extremely nervous about choosing a makeup artist for my wedding day. I never like the way it comes it so I always wind up doing it myself. When I had my trial with Donna my nerves disappeared. The eyelashes and airbrush foundation that I added on were the best part. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day it only continued. Donna came promptly when expected and did a beautiful job for me and my bridesmaids. All of us felt the same and our makeup lasted all night long!" Lucie

I used Donna for my wedding last June. She was unbelievable! Truthfully, I was a little nervous about hiring someone that I found online, however, once I spoke to her my fears subsided. From the start, she was extremely professional and knowledgeable. I had a trial done in her home, where she carefully listened to my concerns & desires. She took pictures & sent them to me, and was available to discuss any changes that I felt needed tweaking. The day of the wedding she was amazing! I had hired her to do my mother, future mother in law, and two friends. She arrived promptly complete with an adorable chair that said "Bride". She had a real calming & positive energy that made me feel at ease. All of our makeup was truly beautiful. She stayed long past the pictures to help touch us up & even ended up helping my mom fix her hair! I cannot recommend her wonderful work enough!!!

Donna....Divine Artistry, the name says its all! All I had to do was tell Donna in a few words what I envisioned and I got even more than what I asked for! She was more than understanding to my needs, on both days I needed her for my wedding ceremony and reception. She quickly responded to my emails and phone calls when I had any concerns. Since I have troubled skin, I'm really reluctant having anyone touch my face. I felt really comfortable and confident with her working on me. I got that dramatic and over the top look, but still feeling sophisticated and timeless! Donna also did a superb job on my bridesmaids! They all had a different look, yet you knew they all belonged in the same bridal party. I would recommend doing a trial with her, just so you get that feeling of ease, knowing that you have one less thing to worry on your special occasion. Donna we adore you and admire your work! Our family and friends gave us great compliments. Thank you so much for making us feel and look amazing! We will surley see you in the future! Divine Artistry Blessed.... Sherri Lyn Peters

I honestly don't know where to begin with my review. I booked Donna after my trial with her, I WAS IN LOVE! There are no words to describe how happy I was with Donna and my makeup for my 4/29/11 wedding. My entire bridal party and I had airbrush makeup and the airbrushing stayed on ALL NIGHT. Words cannot express how beautiful she made us all look. So many people complimented my makeup. She was so great to work with, very professional yet so personable you feel like you've known her for years. I also went back to her for my engagement pics & bridal shower makeup. I will defintely be calling her up for any future events that I have to go too. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to feel amazing on their wedding day!!! Donna thank you again for everything!!!

I know you come across so many of these reviews for so many makeup artists that they tend to blend together, but any bride who listens to my advice will be a lucky girl! Donna from Divine Artistry is the way to go when it comes to bridal makeup. When I first met Donna I thought she was so warm and friendly, I immediately felt like she would be someone I'd want to have with me the morning of my wedding. She made me feel so comfortable right from the start. Luckily, she did such a fabulous job at my trial that I got my wish! The day of the wedding, two of my friends decided at the last minute that they wanted to get their makeup done and while I was a nervous wreck, Donna stepped in and got everyone's makeup done with no problem. She did such an amazing job that everyone in the bridal party couldn't believe how great they looked. Everyone's makeup looked so natural and beautiful. My mom and aunt still talk about how impressed they were! Donna is so patient and really listened to what I wanted...you can't go wrong using her for your wedding day makeup!

Hi Donna, I just wanted to take a moment (now that the craziness has died down) to thank you for everything! Everyone commented on how beautiful my girls looked, and I got alot of compliments too!! From the pictures I've seen so far, it photographed so well and looks gorgeous. My makeup did not budge all night, I looked perfect right up until the very end! I didn't want to take it off!!! Thank you so much for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. You were so professional - right on time, finished early, and you were a pleasure to have around while we were getting ready!! Having you there helped calm me down and make me feel like I was just hanging out with a friend! I could not have been happier with your services. Thank you again!!! Best, Lauren Prendergast (Amatrudo)

My Wedding was Oct 1 2010 Divine Artistry was one of the best choices I could have made for my wedding day . Donna is an amazing makeup artist and person. I was the most stressed out bride in the world when it came to planning my wedding. As well as very picky. Donna was so sweet and professional threw the whole process. I had two makeup trials with Donna prior to my wedding date. Not because she didn't do a good job. She did and amazing job both times . I just wasn't sure on what colors to go with when I came to my eyes. On the day of my wedding I looked amazing my bridal party was gorgeous. Donna also did my mother's makeup she looked like a movie star on the red carpet . Every time I looked at her I would have to hold back on crying she looked that gorgeous . My makeup lasted all night. My lashes eyes everything all night. If your thinking about booking Donna stop thinking just do it. A must have on your wedding day. I plan on getting my makeup done again for future events. Awesome !!

Donna did a flawless job on my makeup. She made sure that it looked natural but still different from everyday makeup. I would definitely use Divine Artistry again. Donna is very professional and very helpful. My makeup lasted all day and I didn't have to worry about touching up anything except my lipstick. Love her!!

Donna made me look amazing on my special day! She was extremely punctual, professional and conscientious. She possesses a patience and warmth about her that makes her very different from some of the "artists" I have used before for other events. Her expertise is unparallelled and I received more compliments than ever that day. I have told all my friends about her and I will certainly hire her again. She's amazing and you will think so too.

Donna was so professional on my wedding day. She came early and even helped with some last minute details that had nothing to do with the makeup. I loved my makeup so much, I had never felt so confident and beautiful in my life! I got so many compliments but most of all, my husband said I was glowing..When the night ended my makeup looked like she had just finished! Thank you so much..I'll never forget what you did for me!

I met Donna back in 2006 and have been singing her praises ever since. On the morning of my wedding, she exceeded all my expectations by making me the most beautiful version of myself that I could have imagined. Three years and two kids later, I emailed her when I realized I hadn't rethought my beauty routine since high school. We scheduled a "Master Class" and Donna spent two hours with me talking, laughing and updating me on colors, application and everything inbetween. She is so easy to be with it was like hanging out with an old friend. She patiently answered all my questions and gave me great product recommendations, all of which I took. I'm thrilled with the results. I HIGHLY recommend Donna, not only because she is amazingly talented but also because she's a great person, the kind of girl you want in your bridal suite helping you get ready on your wedding day! Look no further, ladies.
