The wedding experience
Northern VA Wedding Makeup
An Experience
tailored to you
The focus of your wedding day is you and your love — not your makeup. I know, not what you might expect a makeup artist to say. But hear me out.
When your loved ones see you for the first time, I want them to say "You look absolutely beautiful" — not "Wow, you're wearing a lot of makeup."
Your bridal look should feel effortless, comfortable, and timeless — enhancing your natural beauty, never masking it. With a skin-forward, less-is-more approach, my goal is simple: to help you look and feel like the most radiant, authentic version of yourself on the most meaningful day of your life.
BOOK NOW
Your big day is here, and my attention is entirely yours. I will prep your skin, recreate your desired look, and give you a bridal touch-up kit to keep your makeup pristine.
Booking only one client per date, I ensure that
you are my sole focus, providing you with the
personalized care and attention you deserve.
The Big Day!
In the weeks between your trial and wedding day, you will receive everything you need to feel prepared and at ease. This includes a curated vendor list, a comprehensive Bridal Guide to support your planning, and a series of personalized emails with skincare recommendations and timely reminders — so that when your wedding day arrives, both you and your skin are absolutely radiant.
In Between...
The Trial
Your bridal trial is so much more than a practice run. It is a dedicated, unhurried appointment where we refine and perfect your wedding-day look together — ensuring you feel confident, comfortable, and completely yourself. The trial also allows us to identify any sensitivities to products well in advance, so there are no surprises on your wedding day. Come ready to relax, be pampered, and leave glowing.
Option 1: Reserve Your Wedding Date (Recommended)
To officially secure your wedding date, a signed contract and a 50% non-refundable retainer are required. Once your date is reserved, we will schedule your bridal trial — a dedicated appointment designed to thoughtfully refine your wedding-day look so that everything feels effortless, intentional, and perfectly aligned well before the day arrives. I recommend scheduling your trial approximately two months prior to your wedding.
Option 2: Bridal Trial as a Standalone Service
Bridal trials are also available as a standalone appointment prior to reserving your wedding date. Please note that a trial booked without a signed contract and retainer does not hold or reserve your date — availability remains open to other inquiries until both are received.
On the Calendar
Let's Chat!
Every great wedding day begins with a conversation. This is a relaxed, no-pressure call where we get to know one another, discuss your vision, and ensure we are the perfect fit. I want you to feel completely confident in your decision — and that begins before you ever book.

"Kiley is a master at natural makeup while still making you feel bridal. I highly recommend her! "
Maria and Michael , 1757 Golf Club
“Throughout the entire process, Kiley was so caring, professional, patient, and such a great listener. She listened to all my concerns and my makeup came out flawless on my wedding day. What I loved most about Kiley is that she was so pleasant to talk to, which I especially appreciated on my wedding morning when I was so nervous. Her kind nature put me at ease and made the day go by so smoothly.”

Wedding Portfolio
To reserve my services for a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday wedding, a minimum booking of the bride plus two additional adult makeup applications is required, with a starting investment of $1,250. This includes the bridal trial, bridal makeup, and two adult makeup applications. Travel fees are additional.
To ensure every client receives my full attention and the highest level of artistry, I accommodate wedding parties of up to five to six individuals including the bride, dependent on the timeline. I accept one wedding per date and have limited availability.
All wedding bookings begin with a phone consultation, and I am happy to consider smaller wedding parties on a case-by-case basis.
