Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a hair & beauty partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She made my fall Vermont wedding look truly come to life. As someone who loves makeup, I was initially hesitant to get mine done, but I am so happy that I did. During the trial, she really takes the time to get to know you, what you like, and show her years of expertise and knowledge on beauty products. With all her experience she is still very down to earth and humble. I could not have asked for a better makeup artist or experience. All of the bridesmaids loved theirs as well which was a big bonus. Thank you, Jennifer!

Jennifer is wonderful and so talented! Her makeup made me feel like the most beautiful, confident, and radiant version of myself. I don't typically wear a lot of makeup, so it was important to me that I still felt/looked like myself, and that was exactly what Jennifer delivered. My bridesmaids, mother, and MIL were glowing, too + so happy with their looks. Jennifer's calm presence put me at ease from the makeup trial to the actual wedding day. She is professional and was super easy to coordinate with. I can’t recommend her enough!!

Jennifer was the makeup artist for my wedding and I absolutely loved working with her! Myself and my other bridesmaids felt so taken care of and listed to by Jennifer, which is exactly what I was looking for. She does exceptional work and I'm so glad she was available for my wedding! I would hire her again in a minute, I could not recommend her enough!

I had the most incredible experience with Jennifer. From the very start, she provided exceptional service not only for me but also for my entire bridal party. Beyond her incredible talent, Jennifer was such a calming presence to have by my side on my big day, which meant the world to me. During our trial, she took extra care to provide me with a variety of options, and I truly appreciated how she listened to my preferences while offering thoughtful guidance. This process gave me so much confidence in my wedding day look. If you're planning a wedding in the Upstate NY/Vermont area, I can't recommend Jennifer Perellie enough. She also introduced me to the amazing hairdresser I used, and togeth...

Jennifer made me feel naturally beautiful and like me on wedding day. My makeup looked great in all the photos and held all day. Bridesmaids were also very happy with their makeup. I had her stay for touch ups which was most helpful with lip re-application and some fixes in cooler october weather. Highly recommend!
