Out of all the 2021 wedding work I have done, this one has to be the most memorable.
For couples who have successfully proceeded with their wedding celebrations last year - congratulations! Being able to hold a wedding celebration in the middle of a pandemic is in itself wonderful enough to deserve a celebration.
But out of all the work I did in 2021, this one takes the crown. I won't forget this.
Farah booked us in 48 hours before the wedding.
It wasn't an elopement. Her original makeup & hair artist cancelled her - less than 3 days before the wedding - and it wasn't due to covid either. She was simply double booked.
So a message was sent out to my team, and the wonderful Angie was able to take this on, with me. Both of us had other work booked in later that day, but we managed to turn up at the hotel at 6am, got Farah's bridal party and relatives ready, all without a trial.
In my mind, there's always a basal level of nervousness to do a bride's makeup & hair without a trial beforehand, but Angie has completely nailed it.

"Stella and Angie were extremely professional and cool at the same time. They understood the situation we were in and were very prompt.
We were unlucky that our makeup stylist and hairstylist cancelled last minute for our wedding. But the situation turned around for the better as Stella and Angie were able to accommodate and delivered above and well beyond expectations. And everyone loved them including our venue coordinator! Everyone looked beautiful and had a great time getting ready together.
The service was so seamless despite the hiccups with hotel valet service. We highly recommend them to anyone requiring makeup/hair service for any occasion as they are great at what they do, professional and also fun people!!
Stella and Angie did both makeup and hair for 3x bridesmaids, bride and mother of groom including touch up at the reception.
Thank you so much guys from the very bottom of my heart!"

"The Faces Makeup and Hair team (Stella and Angie) are our life savers. They saved our magical day by confirming to do our make up 48 hrs before the wedding day as another make artist from another company double booked us and couldn’t make it on time. Without Stella and Angie, we wouldn’t have any make up or hair done on the day.
They are really passionated on what they do. Understanding and caring of how important the wedding day is to all of us. And for us, that’s the most important thing.
Thank you so much Stella and Angie in helping us making the magical day happened. We are really appreciated.
Thank you so much for your awesome and professional works,
Pareena (Farah’s bridesmaid)"
"Stella and Angie came to the rescue and did the hair and makeup for my friend’s wedding when the original makeup artist cancelled 2 nights before.
They were both wonderful people to spend the getting ready part with and the results were absolutely beautiful. Thank you both so much for making us and especially the bride feel special, for calming our nerves and for being there for touch ups as well! We appreciate it ☺️"

To make a bride feels even more special than she already is, is what keeps me staying in this industry after 15+ years. Thank you Farah, Pareena & Karina for your kinds words.
