Oakdale, NY
  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 4
  • Starts at $250

Creativity is where I thrive and feel most like myself, and the beauty industry has given me the perfect canvas to express it. After leaving a corporate career of nearly 10 years, I followed my passion and began as a head makeup artist and bridal consultant, which opened the door to incredible opportunities. From NYFW to campaigns with e.l.f. Cosmetics, mastering lash artistry, and working on fashion shoots across NYC, I’ve gained experience that fuels my artistry every day. Since 2020, I’ve proudly built and run my own beauty company, helping clients feel confident, radiant, and unstoppable.

I can't recommend Alexa enough! She was my makeup artist for my wedding, and her talent truly made my day unforgettable. Not only does she excel in makeup artistry, but she also captures beautiful moments as a photographer for several special occasions in my life. Her versatility as a jack of all trades is impressive. What stands out the most is her professionalism. Alexa is incredibly skilled at her craft, but it's her warm and welcoming demeanor that makes the experience so enjoyable. She goes above and beyond to ensure you feel comfortable and beautiful, whether it's applying makeup or snapping stunning photos. Her kindness shines through in everything she does, making every session feel personal and special. If you're looking for someone who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about her clients, Alexa is the one to go to!

We got married 1/5/25 but had been working with Miriam for probably a year and a half before our big day. She was always so personable with us a treated us like family. Words cannot describe the love and care we felt from Jake, our maître D and Samantha, our bridal attendant, on our wedding day. We were cared for tediously and effortlessly. We felt like at ease, happy and totally relaxed. I needed Samantha and didn’t even know it, I am forever indebted to her - she could not have been more attentive and wonderful. Comforting me, assuring me, getting me where I need to be and when. So friendly, kind and amazing. Thank god for Jake. He is so special and we’re so lucky we got him as our maître D. He deems himself as a “yes man” and he is not lying. Anything you could have ever wanted from him, he’d deliver. We wanted for nothing, had wonderful direction from him all night and he took care of EVERYTHING!  The night was flawless, amazing, perfect and all we could have ever hoped for. The staff at Bourne is unmatched, we made the right choice with this venue. Guests will be in awe of the venue and talk about the food for years to come. I wish I could do it all again. Thank you Bourne mansion & staff for the best night of our lives! I don’t have all my pics back yet!

We had our wedding at The Essex Club and it was truly flawless from start to finish. The venue itself is beautiful, but what really made the experience exceptional was the level of care that went into every single detail. From the very beginning, Jessica in sales was incredible. She was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure our day turned out exactly the way we envisioned it. No matter how many questions we had or how many little tweaks we wanted to make, she always handled everything with patience, kindness, and complete professionalism. She made the entire planning process feel so easy. The day-of staff was just as amazing our bridal attendant Jalissa and the maître D Rob were both attentive and on top of everything without ever being intrusive. The rest of the staff ran everything so smoothly and make sure every detail was perfect. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was, we went to all the show cases that we could and picked off experience, from cocktail hour all the way through dessert. Every dish was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or a better team.

When working on wedding planning, we knew right away that we wanted to use nectar& bloom for our florals. We wanted something fun, unique, and just not what you always see at most weddings in our area. Lisa and Ann Marie were amazing in their communication and breakdowns of what could work with our budget and venue space, and were very adaptable and helpful as changes came along the way! We had high expectations coming into our wedding day, but they were absolutely blown out of the park once we saw everything come to life! From my bridal bouquet to the AMAZING floral arch and centerpieces, we were absolutely thrilled with how bright, colorful, fun, and unique our florals were. Our guests are still raving about the flowers that we had, and I even sent out our flowers to be preserved so that I have this amazing piece of our day treasured forever. I would highly recommend using the n&b team for your wedding day; whether you are looking for something more traditional or going for something more unique and personalized, you are in great hands with Lisa and Ann Marie designing your dream day!!

Ana & Jimmy were in a different league from the moment we met them. On our first Zoom, they listened to everything I said about our taste and our vibe… and then gently told me that our beloved saxophonist idea didn’t match anything we had described. They recommended a guitarist instead— and thank goodness, because they were absolutely right. Their planning process was incredibly thoughtful.. and for me, hilarious. Their music surgery? Thorough and genius, and apparently visible to them before you hit submit. Which meant they saw me type things like “Haed pass,” “No thank you,” and “What even is that??” Live. Thankfully, they have incredible senses of humor. They checked in multiple times, did a full site visit, and showed up with a sound team who stayed all night to make sure everything was flawless. They even coordinated our private outdoor first dance with our violinist while sending the music inside to guests — seamlessly. But the reception is where they catapulted into untouchable territory. They don’t just sing and DJ… they perform. Including: * the full, committed N’SYNC “Bye Bye Bye” choreography * A Blink - 182 elder millennial scream-along that transported us back to 2003 * Coming onto the dance floor to hype everyone * Interacting with guests like they’ve known us forever. I don’t dance— and I was on that dance floor all night. Our guests are still texting us about how unreal the band was and we’ve heard “best wedding I’ve ever been to” on multiple occasions. My only genuine disappointment is that the wedding is over and I don’t get to hang out with Ana and Jimmy anymore. Hire AMP DJ/BAND HYBRID. Thank me later

Used SLK Visuals for my wedding videography. My wedding had a lot of components - there was a dance battle, a surprise ice cream truck and some sentimental moments. Shawn managed to capture all of these and edit them to create a great short film for my wife and I. Happy we chose him!

Jeanine is absolutely in the right line of work. I have hired her for other weddings before but hiring her for my wedding was the best decision I made. She was so attentive, understanding of exactly what I needed and all around kind. I can’t recommend her enough!!

Davisual Photography & Videography provided excellent communication throughout the entire wedding planning process. Their suggestions on photos and videos were spot-on, resulting in great quality footage that beautifully captured the special moments of our day. The videographer's recommendation to include a specific shot of the couple's first dance was a highlight that we'll cherish forever.
