Noreen and her team are amazing! Noreen was so great about keeping in contact and replying to calls and emails leading up to the big day, and was timely, detail oriented, friendly, and efficient on my wedding day. We had a large group of ladies and little girls and the teams time management in beautifying us all was perfect. I was kept at ease all along. I would recommend Noreen and her crew in a heartbeat!!! :)

Noreen was wonderful! She did my hair and makeup for my wedding, as well as my five bridesmaids' hair. Noreen gave each bridesmaid a different hairdo that suited her perfectly. Everyone's hair and my makeup looked great! And, just as importantly, it looked the same at 11:00 that night after hours of getting down on the dance floor as it had that morning right after Noreen finished. Noreen also worked very quickly and her prices were very fair. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

You pay for what you get in my opinion. My initial trial was fine as I wasn't doing anything over the top with my hair. Tried to schedule a second trial so that I could test out my extensions, but could never coordinate a day with Noreen's schedule. The day of my wedding was a hair and makeup disaster. Airbrush makeup, which is supposed to be waterproof and why I chose it for a summer wedding, was splotchy within 30 minutes and my hair extensions were falling out. Imagine standing at your ceremony and wondering if they would fall out in front of everyone! Ended up redoing my own makeup and hair was a mess. My Bridal party also had splotchy makeup. I ended up with regular makeup and my hair was not down and beautiful, instead it was in a messy, knotted bun. When notified of the issue, no effort to rectify the situation was made and no apologies whatsoever. In fact, Noreen told me I had sweating problem and should have contacted a dermatologist The 90 degree weather had nothing to do with it apparently. The lack of professionalism and personal courtesy is outrageous. I would not recommend this vendor.

> Prior to your wedding day we had numerous trials and you were very indecisive of what you wanted. I am very professional and I have worked with you in the past with other events so this coming from you is upsetting. I was courteous to you, responded to your every call and email. If you did not like what I did you would not have told me what a wonderful job I did, paid me for my time and my services. You did not book me for your entire wedding as I suggested to you with the weather conditions and everything being outside.You only booked me for hair and make up until 3PM and did not book me until your 7 PM ceremony. I suggested you to purchase cosmetics for touch ups or book me at an hourly rate to stay until end of ceremony. You declined these services because you used me for other events. You purchased your hair extensions on your own and not the ones I recommended with the clips on them. I gave you the item # and were to purchase them. I had no choice but to use what you purchased on the day of. I also stayed an extra hour at no additional charge to you and your entire bridal party was an hour and half late for their services. It did not help that your air conditioner at your hotel in the bedroom of the bridal suite was not working and they had a maintenance man in the room fixing it. Due to the extreme humidity and it being very hot I made suggestions to wear your hair up in a side bun or in a side pony. You insisted on wearing it down when I explained to you that the hair you purchased will fall out and I did as you the bride requested. All make up was waterproof and your bridesmaid Christine called me and left me a message 2 hours after I left that she added bronzer to your face and put too much on. She used liquid foundation to correct it and made a mess of your make up. Your wedding venue was 2 hours away and I did respond on the phone that I can come back but there is an extra charge and I was told it was not necessary. This could have been avoided if you listened to me the wedding professional.

I have never felt more beautiful than I did on the day of my wedding, and I owe so much of that feeling to Noreen and Vee. As a girl who does not wear makeup on a daily basis and someone who has uncontrollable curls that frizz with the slightest hint of moisture, they made me feel amazing. I wanted a natural look since I don't wear a ton of makeup, and I still wanted to wear my hair down and curly. Despite the fact that it was the hottest day of the year and there were constant threats of thunderstorms (with humidity in the high 50% chance), my makeup and hair held up all day. It was perfect! The ladies of A Bridal Beauty were able to do the hair and makeup for each of my very different girls, and match their very different styles wonderfully. Each of my bridesmaids looked and felt spectacular! Overall, Noreen and Vee went above and beyond my expectations. They made my entire look come together and made me feel so special from the moment they walked into the hotel room. I would recommend these ladies in a heartbeat!

Noreen did a great job on the bride, the MOB and the MOH. Make-up and hair was done early in the morning for pictures and the wedding wasn't until 6PM. Everyone still looked great even though it was 94 degrees and the bride cried all day. I would definitely recommended Noreen.

Noreen saved my life! I was very unhappy with our my first hair trial turned out with someone else and two weeks before my wedding was calling frantically. I found Noreen on here and she jumped on board. She did a hair trial the day before our wedding and came to where I was staying which was very convenient. On the day of the wedding, she made me look amazing! She is definitively an expert and was extremely quick. She did my maid of honor, several of my bridesmaids, my mother-in-law and one of my flower girls all in 4 hours. My hair looked awesome and my makeup looked awesome and better yet it stayed the whole day until 9pm. I was thrilled. The next day when we left for our honeymoon, my hair still looked good. I don't know how she did it! Her prices were reasonable and she will come to you which takes a ton of stress off. I highly recommend her to everyone I know. Thank you Noreen!

> Hi Ashlee!!! Thank you so much for your kind reveiw! I can't wait to see your photos! IKeep in touch! Love Noreen

Noreen was a pleasure to work with for my wedding. She responded to emails, phone calls, texts etc in a very timely manner. I was able to have two trials and she worked with my schedule. She made my special day wonderful and made everything easy for me. Noreen even opened her house to myself and my bridal party the day of!! I would recommend Noreen to any bride for their wedding!!

Noreen was amazing! From when I first contacted her a year before my wedding up to the date, she was reliable, patient, helpful, and fun! I was nervous about having someone do my hair and makeup, especially being african american and having had bad experiences in the past dealing with people who didn't get my hair or choose good foundation. No issues at all with Noreen. She made me and my bridesmaids look model-gorgeous :-) Her assistant was also great and did an amazing job with everyone'e hair. I can't say enough good thinks about their service. Wonderful! stop looking and just book Noreen now!

Noreen provided hair and makeup services for me and my mom, sisters, and grandmother. She is very talented and made each of us look and feel like supermodels. Noreen's calm demeanor helped keep nerves down to a minimum and her professionalism, as well as her kindness, made for a great start to what can be a very hectic day for brides and families. I have full confidence in Noreen and will definitely use her services again for any special event that I attend. I strongly recommend Noreen and A Bridal Beauty to anyone who is looking for stunning hair and makeup for their wedding or other special event.

I would like to reccommend Noreen and her staff. She is so wonderful and Patient! I had many hair trials and could not decide but she never made me feel pressured and always offered her honest opinion(so importnat). I was a victim of Hurricane Irene and had my wedding canceled. When I rescheduled, she was so accomodating. As if the hurricane wasn't enough, imagine on your wedding day your maid of honor splitting her dress all the way down her back. They were so helpful and sewed my friend completely up so that she still looked presentable and fabulous. Noreen and her assistants really do care that "today is your day" and they will do everything to make you feel that way. Very reasonable priced for the level of service!

> Hi Tammy, Thank you so much for your kind review. I take pride in my business and it means a lot to me that every bride is satisfied with tbe services I provide. Please let me know when your pictures come in and I would love to get together with you. Xoxox Noreen

Great team to work with. They made me feel very relaxed through this whole process. My makeup and girls hair was to die for. Pricing was wonderfula as well.

> Thankyou for letting me be part of your special day. Xoxoxoxo Noreen

Noreen was so amazing!! I called her in a panic 3 weeks before my wedding because my hair stylist backed on me. She came to my rescue! She came to my house the day of, arrived early, AND stayed 2 hours after everyone was done just to make sure my hair did not get messed up after getting dressed because I had to put my dress on over my head. Everyone looked great and our hair lasted the entire day (over 12 hours!).

> Hi Kristina! Thank you for letting Vee and I be part of your special day! I have photos for you burned on a disc that I am going to mail to you. I need your make up girls name so I can give her credit on the photos I posted. (: I told 200 pictures with my camera and I photoshopped them for you. You can give them to your make up girl for her porfolio! xoxoxoxo Noreen

Noreen, thank you to you and your girls for doing such an amazing job on us Saturday! I got lots of compliments on my hair and makeup...lol though i kept the veil on....My husband loved it! Thank you for coming all the way to Staten Island to do my trial, and for looking for my bollywood makeup...My family loved you! You are truly wonderful and i would recommend you to all brides!!!

> Thank you for letting me be part of your special day. Keep in touch and I'd love to see your photos. Also have your sister contact me I have this great line of skin care and make up she would be great at selling. Xoxoxoxo Noreen

Noreen and her crew at Bridal Beauty did a fantastic job making everyone, including myself, look beautiful at the wedding. All of the bridesmaids couldn't stop talking about how happy they were with how they looked at the wedding. Noreen is incredibly patient and easy going and helped me to figure out the perfect hair do for my wedding. I just received my proofs and I am so happy with the way I photographed in them and I thank Noreen and Bridal Beauty for making me look so amazing. Noreen had the timing perfect for my wedding and was even ahead of schedule. I felt relaxed and confident with Noreen as we were getting ready. I definitely plan to use Noreen in the future for special events and know that her business is going to get really big. I wish her all the best.

> Thank you Rachel for letting me be part of your day. I loved the photos and thegetting ready video. Thank you so much. Hope to see you soon. Thank you for referring me. Xoxoxoxo Noreen

Overall great, prepared, early and worked around my schedule! Completed myself and my four bridesmaids hair and makeup in 2.5 hours. Would use again!

> thank you for letting us be part of your special day. Xoxoxo Noreen

I am a very picky and indicive person but Noreen assured me by being patient and working on my schedule. Before I found Noreen for hair and make up others in the industry did not take the time to call me back or email me if they were available. Noreen answered her phone and spent about 30 minutes talking to me in detail about my wedding and followed up with an email on our discussion. She asked me to send a most recent photo of myself and the girls and any hair or make up looks we were going for. She made some suggestions and sent us some other looks that would look good with our features. She is a dedicated wedding professional. On my wedding day Noreen and Vee arrived 15 minutes prior to set up and were well organized. Some of my girls received blowouts, updos or just curling. Hair all looked fabulous. Everyone received airbrush make up and false lashes. Make up and lashes were awesome looking. Make up lasted all night long. Got an extra day out of my false lashes. Love Them! Everyone was finished in a timely manner and we were ready prior to photographer's arrival. We were not rushed at all. We were all at ease and relaxed. Noreen and Vee did an amazing job on all of us. We had a very large party to cater to and we all looked awesome. Everyone's hair and make up was flawless all day and night. Noreen did some extra stuff for me as well and did not charge me for. She is super nice and really did go the extra mile to make sure everyone was happy. Vee catered to all my girls needs as well and was super nice to us too. Highly recommend them if you want a smooth relaxing and flawless wedding day.

> Thank you for your kind words and letting me be part of your special day. I enjoyed working with you and your girls. Xoxoxoxo Noreen

Noreen and Vee did the hair and makeup for my wedding. This is a hard review to write since there was such mixed feedback... To start, both moms who had short hair were done first and both completely redid their hair themselves as the volume and style they requested was not achieved. Both moms hair did not look professionally done at all, so my first recommendation would be to not waste your money on blowouts with this team. My bridal parties hair on the other hand came out nice. I provided all pictures in advance, and the updo styles looked great. A few of the girls hair fell out so just be sure to have plenty of bobby pins and hair spray at reception if you do go with them for updos as I do think they did a nice job in this area. All my bridesmaids overall were happy. Everyone was happy with the airbrush makeup and it did wear nice all night. The bridesmaids and moms were happy with their makeup but the $20 extra for lashes was completely ridiculous as the lashes and glue were no greater than a $4 pair from drug store. I was completed last, and was very rushed. I had 2 people working on me at same time doing hair and makeup which was a bit overwhelming. Noreen did a nice favor of sewing clips in my extensions, but day of some were sewn in backwards which led to some issues (I had a pieces hanging off end of night) I was happy with the overall styling of hair though, just needed to touch up a few times. My airbrush makeup also looked great. I was not happy with my fake eye lashes either as they were not even and looked faked. I was also annoyed as I was told that individual lashes would be available yet they were not brought day of. In addition, there was an issue where Noreen dripped airbrush makeup onto my white paints and I was informed it would come out in wash and didn't. There were also a few comments made that were not appropriate and made a few of us feel uncomfortable. I am sorry to say but I do not recommend this team despite some positive reviews. If you saw my bridal party you would say they did a nice job. But there were so many issues and miscommunications that I was overall unhappy and would not recommend.

> I left you a voice message this morning to discuss this undeserved reveiw you left us. I went above and beyond with you all through out your wedding planning process. We take pride in our work and are very professional in the bridal industry. We are kind, curtious, on time, did extras for you at no additional cost, open communication via phone or email and well organized. We did as requested of your bridal party. Bridal PArty thanked us and they even requested business cards to give to friends that are getting married. Everyone in you wedding party was completed in a timely manner prior to photographers arrival. Nothing was rushed, damaged or unorganized. You were informed prior to wedding on certain hairstyles chosen would not stay in place with beach weather conditions during photos on beach. As for eyelashes we had individuals but you wanted strips for everyone. That is what was ordered online in advance and supplied. If you were not happy with your services then we should have been informed at the time of the wedding to correct any issues you had. Since you and your mom gave us a very generous tip, thanked us and told us we did an amazing job on everyone we are quite puzzled with the reveiw that you gave us. If for any reason you were not satisfied with your wedding day services a phone call or email to discuss this matter before leaving us a poor reveiw would have been nice so we could have addressed any issues that you had. When you get a chance please call me to discuss. Thankyou, Noreen

Was a great experience.. did many trials.. loved my hair and makeup.. bridesmaids were happy as well!

> Thank you for your nice review. Let me know when you would like to book your complemtrary spa party. Thank you for referring me to some of your friends. Talk soon Xoxoxoxo Noreen

Noreen and her team were so easy to work with. I was a bridesmaid in my best friends wedding. They listened to what each of the girls wanted and help to make each girl even more beautiful. They also worked in an efficient manner keeping us all on schedule. They took care of us all the make sure we were all freshened up right before we began pictures! Very great to work with and I highly recommend.

Noreen is fabulous. My daughter was gorgeous and she put us all at ease. It was the first time I ever wore false eyelashes.

> Thank you for the positive feedback. Your family and friiends were a pleasure to work with. Have a great new year. Thank You Noreen

Noreen was an amazing help at our wedding! I felt really comfortable working with her, as I am completely indecicive and had to have several trails before I was able to choose my hair. She is truly a professional, understanding the stress of having moms, sisters, and things going wrong the day of the wedding, she was able to help keep me calm, make some decisions, and even almost had to drive me to the wedding! Everyone LOVED my hair and makeup, and I felt beautiful, yet like myself. Best of all, she airbrushed my makeup, so it stayed looking fresh until the next day, literally:)

> Thank you Court for your kind words. I wish you the best of luck.Keep in touch. Noreen

I wanted to take the time to let all brides know that A Bridal Beauty is a wonderful, caring, fun, loving group of women that are on top of the latest hair and airbrush make up trends! Very professional and reliable. Noreen, Barabara and Cassie are worth every penny spent. We all looked amazing. Thank you Ladies for all your hard work and I will definitely refer you.

> Hi Denise, Thank you for the opportunity to work your wedding. I had a lovely time. Thank you for your kind words. Noreen

Thank you so much Noreen and Cassie for making my bridal party and I beautiful on my wedding day. Absolutely Amazing Work! Very Professional and Great Communication They accommodated my large group and understood each of our personal style. They made me look fabulous and polished. I was really happy with the outcome and I highly recommend A Bridal Beauty to all future brides!

> Hi renee, Thank you for the referrals! I had an awesome time working your wedding. I received the photos from your photographer and I have them up and show cased on my website. Thank you Noreen

I had Noreen come and do my trial and was very impressed with her work. She did a great job and I was so glad to have found someone who I thought would be reliable and be there for me. Unfortunately, she did not show up on the day of my wedding. Her assistant, who had a very pleasant attitude was left to do everyone's hair and make up and mine was not the same as my trial- hair nor makeup. I had no phone call or e-mail to let me know that Noreen was never coming until I had to ask later that morning. After the wedding, I sent an email expressing that I was upset. Still no phone call or response. Completely unprofessional and unreliable. What a rough start-I was not happy and would not reccommend this company unless you are okay with their own schedule, not yours.I have a lot of friends getting married so business was lost on this one.

> I am sorry that I did not reach out to you sooner but I was in a car accident on the day of your wedding. My Assistant was informed of this on the day of your wedding with a text message. She decided that she did not want to upset you and let you know that I was injured and hospitalized on your event. She told me that she told you. I did not charge you for your hair extensions that I personally picked up from you at your home and styled prior to your wedding.Most On Site or salon would have Charged you $ 100.00 extra. Your were also not charged for scar touch ups on your mom and sister's legs which should have been an additional $ 100.00 I am very reiable but unfortunatly I broke my ankle that day so it was impossible for me to work your wedding. I did have someone there to take care of everyones services. If I was unreliable no one would have been there to service you. I went above and beyond with you and I don't deserve this poor rating from you.

Noreen just did my wedding this weekend and everyone in my bridal party looked amazing. Highly recommend and were on time, professional, and priced right. Thankyou, Mary Ellen Daniels

> Hi Mary Ellen, I just received the photos from your photographer and they look amazing. They are up and running on my website. Thank you, noreen
