Avoid the traditional approach of caking on layers of cover-up and learn how to apply makeup that looks natural. Camouflage these conditions with smart makeup application techniques that leave your skin looking healthy.

I am not going to lie, I was a little last minute with addressing getting wedding hair and makeup services arranged and Caelie & Brianna were so helpful and really put me at ease. I was able to schedule to go to Santa Rosa to have a consultation with them and brought a few pictures of hair styles I was envisioning. After a short discussion, in just one shot Brianna created a look that blended the pictures I had into my own style and then perfectly recreated it the day of my wedding. Caelie & Brianna came to the AirBnB where my bridal party was getting ready to do all of our hair and makeup for a few of the girls.
Everyone looked absolutely beautiful and was so happy with the work they did. The final look of my hair was so stunning and I now have such beautiful photos as a reminder. Caelie & Brianna fit right in with all of my best friends and made the hectic morning feel fun. They gave me great advice when we met and were the ultimate professionals day of my wedding! I would highly recommend using them plus their pricing is more than fair, especially considering how talented these ladies are!

We are so thankful for Briana and her fantastic work! We were in a pinch to find a make-up artist for our video shoot in less than 24 hours and were so happy to find Briana available to help us out. Not only was her work fantastic, she was so personable with our team and our client. Thank you so much!

Briana did an amazing job on my hair and makeup and on the hair for my mother and my 3 bridesmaids. I was impressed by the time and effort that was put into the preview appointment. I showed her only a couple of pictures of what I wanted and she knew exactly what I was thinking! She duplicated my look exactly on the day of and did four other hairstyles and was happy and upbeat the entire time.
I could not have asked for a better experience on my wedding day! I got so many compliments on both my hair and makeup! I would highly recommend her, she is absolutely fantastic!

Briana puts so much care and time into each bride and bridesmaid. She truly listens to what each person needs and wants, ultimately making the Bride happy at the beginning of the day. She has class and talent with hair and makeup for the stars! She is a Sonoma County Wine Country Stylist with an insight of fashion and design that will keep any bride pleased. If you are fortunate enough to book with her, do it!

My son got married last weekend and we used Belle of the Ball for hair and make up not only for the wedding party but relatives as well - total of 10. Caelie arrived at 9 and her assistant Amber came at noon. They both worked nonstop until 3 - without a break or without losing their cheerful attitude. they made the day a blast and at the end we were all beautiful - well, we at least all felt beautiful. What a marvelous job they do and they make it such a special experience. No bride should get married without calling Caelie!

Caelie and her team did an amazing job for my wedding! I wish she did my hair and make-up every day. Originally I had no intention of getting my hair and make-up professionally done for my wedding, however, I'm so glad that I did thanks to my bridesmaids who convinced me that paying a little bit more was worth it. Preview: I had no idea what I wanted to look like on my wedding day beyond my dress.
My hair is fine, layered and chin-length which is not the hair of bridal magazines. And when it came to make-up, I had even less of an idea. Caelie was not deterred. She offered me a mini look book and had me mark with post-its pages I liked and pages that I didn't like. Once we walked through the why of my markings she knew what I would like even if I still had no clue.
We discussed my venue, dress, and reception timing and then she had an epiphany of how my hair could look. She asked me what I thought of wavy curls. I would LOVE them I said if only they would stay in my hair. Flash-forward to a few hours later in the day and, as I predicted, my hair was fighting to be stick straight again. I simply took photos of my rapidly relaxing hair and sent them off to Caelie.
Once again she was not deterred and promised she would have a solution in time for my wedding day. Wedding Day: My bridesmaids and I had a fun time getting made up. Caelie had us in a perfectly orchestrated timeline. She even had a back-up hairstyle for me since it was humid and pouring outside (not quite the weather that I planned!). Now I was not to be deterred since my hair doesn't change with the weather. I was so happy with the results. And yes, my curls were still intact well after the reception ended.

Caelie and her team are excellent at what they do. They did hair and make-up for me, my 5 bridesmaids, my mother and my mother-in-law-to-be at our wedding in October. They are creative but, at the same time, really listen to what you want. They did a great job at my hair and make-up trial, but I had a change of heart on my hairstyle a few weeks later. Caelie had no problem at all doing a second trial and didn't even make me feel like a diva for it. : Everyone raved about my hair and make-up at the wedding - thanks, Caelie and Briana!

Caelie is the best! She did my hair and makeup for my wedding and I immediately felt like she was a dear friend. I had a blast at the preview session and just adored my fake eyelashes. As for the wedding she came to the location and it felt like she was another bridesmaid. She kept me calm and my hair looked great and stayed in place. Very professional and highly recommended!

Belle of the Ball is the BEST! They did my wedding hair and makeup as well as hair and makeup for the bridesmaids and the mothers. Mia was my main artist and she brought Vanessa along to help with hair. I knew both ladies from their salon Studio 128 in Geyserville where I get my hair done so knew I would be in good hands. Everyone loved their hair, makeup, and the Belle of the Ball ladies.
They really pay attention to the client to make sure they get just the look they want. There was a range of personalities in my group from the older moms, to conservative bridesmaids, to young edgy bridesmaids, and it is pretty amazing that the Belle of the Ball ladies were able to please and relate to everyone. They are extremely professional but also super friendly and fun.
They are easy to talk to and it felt like they were one of the girls. For me, the bride, Mia was amazing both on the big day and the months leading up to it. We did not do a preview so emailed a lot talking about looks and sharing photos. I did a lot of my wedding planning on my own, and I had no clue what I was doing, so to have Mia talk me through this one part was amazing for me.
I bombarded her with tons of questions and last minute changes, and she was always so helpful and kind. And on the big day it was great to have her and Vanessa there as they felt like friends by that point. When it was my turn to start makeup, the nerves hit me, but Mia took her time and chatted with me, and I soon felt very relaxed. Like everyone else, I just loved my hair and makeup.
They really listened to me to make sure it was perfect-and it was! It was just as I had imagined and I felt so beautiful and bridal and ready to marry my man! At the wedding the makeup held up great and I got tons of compliments. I would recommend Belle of the Ball to everyone! They do amazing hair and makeup while being professional and fun.

The Belle of the Ball ladies did a fantastic job for the beautiful vineyard wedding in Sept. 2010. They were incredibly helpful during the trial/practice appointment before the wedding day. Both ladies arrived to our site on-time (and it was very early on a Saturday morning!) and stayed on-time. Not only did they make the experience fun, but they made each of us feel pretty and special, and made the bride look her MOST BEAUTIFUL self. Natural, but absolutely stunning. Caelie and Briana also managed to create a sense of calm in the bridal suite (a seemingly impossible feat, one would think!).
Both our hair and makeup lasted ALLLL day and night, despite the time spent on the dance floor!;-) Thank you for all you both did to make my best friend's wedding spectacular. I know she (and our bridal party) will look back on the pictures and be very grateful she sprung for such an indulgence at professional hair and makeup!

Caelie and Mia are the best! My wedding was this past weekend and they did hair and make-up for myself and my wedding party of 6! * They are extremely professional (and fun like your favorite girlfriends) and will work with you until you are 100% satisfied with your look. * Every bridesmaid felt so special and was really happy with their hair and make-up - that is so cool! * My wedding was outside and it was 90 degrees out.
I also tend to cry a lot. My eye make-up looked perfect throughout the entire event - I am still amazed! * Prices are extremely reasonable and in-line with their peers in the Wine Country area. All in all, I could not have been happier. I would highly recommend both Caelie and Mia for any event. Thanks, Ladies!
