“Very happy I went with Modern Bridal Studio for the hair and make up at my wedding. They did a fantastic job and made both the trial and my wedding day beautiful and fun. I highly recommend for weddings in the NOVA/DC area.”

“I had an amazing experience with Modern Bridal Studio! I was very impressed with their prompt responses to my emails and flexibility throughout the wedding planning process. Of course, the most important review is of their fantastic artists. All 8 of my bridesmaids were thrilled with their makeup, and I don’t have enough good things to say about how my hair and makeup looked. I was pretty particular about wanting a natural but elegant look and Danielle completely nailed it. She was very focused on making sure everything was exactly how I envisioned it, as was Sarah, our second makeup stylist. Overall, I am so happy I chose Modern Bridal Studio for my big day!”
