Planning a wedding—whether in Sedona or beyond—is one of the most exciting adventures you’ll take, but it can also feel overwhelming. Between choosing your venue, finalizing the guest list, and trying on dresses, one detail that can bring clarity and confidence is knowing your bridal makeup is in the right hands.
This blog isn’t about sales—it’s about helping you feel informed, empowered, and genuinely excited about the experience ahead. If you’ve already downloaded my pricing guide, this is just a deeper look at what it’s like to work with someone who not only understands the art of makeup, but also how to help you feel your most beautiful—wherever your special day takes place.
Why Brides Choose Abby Elyse
Brides consistently tell me they chose me not just because of my portfolio, but because of how calm, comfortable, and understood they felt throughout the entire experience. One bride even shared, "Abby made me feel so at ease—I was nervous about the day, but she brought such a calming presence. I could actually enjoy the moment." Makeup isn’t just about a final look—it’s about how you feel on your day. That’s my focus.
Whether your wedding is outdoors among Sedona’s red rocks, on a mountaintop, in a vineyard, or by the ocean, I understand how lighting, weather, and timing all play into makeup that photographs beautifully and lasts through the ceremony, reception, and every tearful toast in between.
Here’s a quick snapshot of the experience:
Discovery & Booking: After you reach out, I’ll ask a few questions to get a feel for your style, venue, and schedule. This helps me tailor everything to you.
Trial Run: This optional step helps us land your look in advance—so there are no surprises, just excitement.
Wedding Day: I’ll arrive on time, bring everything needed, and make sure your makeup enhances—not covers—your natural beauty. My brides often say, "I still looked like me, just the best version."

Hair & Makeup: A Seamless Process
While I don’t offer hairstyling myself, I work alongside a couple of amazing hairstylists who are just as reliable and passionate as I am. We’ve coordinated for many weddings together, and when you book with me, I’m happy to refer you to someone who matches your aesthetic and timeline.
Brides love that they don’t have to chase down multiple vendors—we bring a sense of calm, professionalism, and teamwork to your day so you can simply enjoy it.
Real Words from Real Brides
With 39 five-star reviews (and counting), the best way to share what I offer is through the words of those I’ve already worked with.

Final Thoughts (No Pressure, Just Real Talk)
If you’re still choosing your makeup artist, I’d love to chat more and answer any questions you have—no pressure, just a conversation to see if we’re a good fit.
And if you’re still in planning mode, I hope this gave you clarity and confidence for one more piece of your big day.
