Nancy did my wedding make-up for me, my bridesmaids, and my mother. She was great! I did a trial with her first several months before the wedding and she spent alot of time to make sure she got the look right. She also took notes and pictures of what she did so that she was prepared for the actual "big day." I don't wear alot of make-up, and she didn't make me look like someone I wasn't.
I loved the make-up the day of the wedding. She came to my house on time. All my bridesmaids made comments about how she was very detail-oriented. Also, she would take pictures with her camera to make sure that the make-up was going to photograph well. My mom really liked her make-up and alot of her friends comment on how good she looked.
I loved my make-up and wish that Nancy could come do it everyday for me! I would highly reccomend her (in fact, I'm trying to convince a friend to book her for her July wedding!)

Hi Nancy,

Thank you for being so patient with me! I appreciate all your great effort and ideas for my wonderful day. I felt pretty, the girls looked beautiful, and the pictures were great. Thank you for your great service and ability to relate with the bride(me, lol), it was much appreciated.

Best,

Nancy absolutely saved me on my wedding day! My previous makeup and hair stylist canceled on my 5 days before my wedding due to a death in the family and I didn't know where to go! I saw her website and her pictures showed her "magic" so I figured it wouldn't hurt to call. Not only was she available and willing to do my makeup for my wedding day but she found me a hair stylist that would also style my hair & my 2 daughters' hair in just 5 days notice! I looked and felt beautiful! and I never say that about myself when I see myself in pictures! but I did! Thank you so much Nancy & Bobbie Joe!

I would recommend them to EVERYONE! THEY WORK MAGIC!

My daughter, Jaime-Anne, and I went for a make-up & hairstyle trial six months prior to her wedding. Nancy was so easy to talk to and really listened to what we were looking for. Following the trial, we were both so impressed with her services that we signed the contract that day. On the day of the wedding, Nancy and Bobbi-Jo, the hair stylist, arrived promptly and set up quickly. They provided services for 5 bridesmaids, grandmother of the groom, mother of the bride and groom and, of course, the bride. To say they did an excellent job would be an understatement. They were very professional, flexible, and calming. We were all 100% satisfied. Even though the day was quite muggy, the makeup stayed on beautifully all night. I would unequivocally recommend them to all of my friends. They truly are artists!

Nancy Hathaway-Hopoweic did the make-up for my wedding. I decided that I wanted to get my make-up done about two weeks before my wedding. I knew it was going to be hard to find someone on such short notice, so I started calling around. I saw Nancy's website and was impressed with the pictures I saw, so I thought I'd give her a call. She responded immediately to my call of distress and rearranged her schedule to be able to do my make-up on my wedding day. She had another client booked later on the same day, but she worked things out where she would be able to come to my house and do my make-up. Even though I wasn't her only client of the day she still made me feel like she was there for me and wasn't going to leave until I was happy with everything. She took pictures that day to make sure I was happy with the way it would look on camera. She gave me some extra lip gloss and make-up she used so that I could touch up if I needed to throughout the day. I got so many compliments about my make-up and it was so light that I didn't even feel it during the day. It also stayed on and looked good for the entire wedding. My ceremony was at 1 and the reception was at 7 so it was a long day and I didn't have to worry about the make-up at all. We had also scheduled a trial before the wedding day and she took pictures in different light then too to show how the make-up would look. I would highly recommend Nancy's service. She is professional and really cares about each of her clients.

Nancy took the time to consult with me before the actual wedding day, she tried many different make up looks, and photographed them so we could decide what looked best. She was in constant communication with me, and takes great pride in her work. She even met the wedding party at our hotel the day of the wedding, and made use of that space to get all of the girl's make up done. She was very conscientious, and made sure everyone was happy with their look before moving on to the next girl. She did a wonderful job, and even helped me to cover up some unexpected blemishes that came up that day, so they were barely (if at all) noticeable. We got SO many compliments on our make up! I would absolutely recommend Nancy to anyone looking for a professional, and very personable make up artist!

Choosing a make-up artist for your wedding day is an important decision - you want to obviously look beautiful (in person and in pictures!) but also want to choose someone who will add to the experience of one of the most memorable days of your life. I chose Nancy after seeing the before and after pictures on her website and talking with her on the phone. From our first conversation, I was impressed by her professional, caring and very calm personality. She was very flexible when I wanted to make last-minute changes to my make-up.

On the morning of my wedding she arrived at my apartment to do my make-up and one of my bridesmaid's. Nancy was a very calming influence on what could be a stressful day. She put me at ease with her professional nature and competence. She was absolutely wonderful. She obviously takes great pride in her work and was meticulous. My make-up looked great - in person and in pictures and I received a lot of compliments. I would highly recommend Nancy's services to any bride-to-be!!!

Nancy Hathaway-Hopowiec is a consummate professional. She takes great pride in her work and it shows in her artistry and top-notch service. Her products are natural and of the highest quality, and she is always responsive to any questions and all requests.

Nancy is a gifted make-up artist and so reasonably priced, approachable and wonderful to work with. She met with me first for a trial make-up session. I was especially impressed with the way she really listened to my thoughts and preferences as I like a natural look. Using her expertise based on my preferences, she made magic! In addition, Nancy has a special quality about her that is very soothing. She radiates peace and calm. On my wedding day, Nancy's talents made me feel beautiful and her inner peace put me at ease. Nancy is truly a gem!
