We had WarPaint International for hair and makeup at our daughter's wedding. What a wonderful experience! They asked great questions and wanted to make sure it was the look you were envisioning. We also had a trial run at our house - it was so fun! My daughter worked in the fashion world in the Twin Cities with producing/managing fashion shows downtown Minneapolis.

With it being her wedding, she has the eye and knows what she is looking for in her vision. Maggie Wiermaa (makeup) and Kathleen Parker (hair) were spot on! Everyone looked stunning - especially the bride! Highly recommend!

I got married May 14th 2022! Kathleen did my hair and Maggie did my makeup. I also had two other artisans because of my large bridal party of 9 bridesmaids as well as my mother and MIL. Everyone was AMAZING! Starting with Maggie who did my beautiful bridal makeup that I got compliments on all night long! The makeup was exactly what I had imagined and exactly based off the trial I had and adjustments we made!

She is so sweet and such a fun person to talk to as well! She made my moms makeup also look soooo beautiful and everything lasted all night. Kathleen was just as amazing! Such a kind soul and so patient and worked hard with my hair to bring the exact vision I wanted! Even with my hair being down and all the hardcore dancing, my hair was great and perfectly curled all night long.

These ladies are soooo talented! ALL my bridesmaids loved their hair and makeup! On top of all that WPI took out ALL the stress of creating a schedule by doing it for us! We just got to sit back and relax and be pampered. Thanks WPI for working with us we love you guys

WarPaint International went ABOVE and BEYOND for my wedding day! First off, they were so easy to work with and very professional. The owner, Jessica Mae, is so kind and organized and the minute I chose WarPaint for my wedding hair and makeup I knew I made the best decision for my big day! Laura and Heidi created my dream bridal look! Starting with the trial, they listened to me and created the perfect look that I dreamt of for this day!

Not only did they create my dream look, they also did an amazing job with my large bridal party! They got everyone done on time and everyone looked FLAWLESS! Behind the scenes, this company never made me stressed and responded to all my emails right away. They deserve an A + in my book for coordination, professionalism, and overall communication! I would recommend WarPaint International to ANY Bride!

Had a great experience with war paint! Keely was amazing to work with, I did a trial with her and afterwards asked her to make the changes and on the wedding day she did. She followed directions great and listened to my needs. I was a south asian bride so had alot of factors coming in, including specifics with my veil and dupatta and she accommodated well. I did a shiny champagne with a smoked out side and had asked her to use some of my own makeup and she delivered well.def recommend her! And warpaint

WPI did a phenomenal job with hair & makeup for my wedding day! Their artisans are incredibly talented, professional, and friendly. Keely did my bridal hair & makeup and understood exactly what I was envisioning during my trial. She kept detailed notes on the feedback I gave before the big day so everything turned out perfectly. On the wedding day she, Mariah, and Katie completed all the services we booked ahead of schedule so we weren’t rushed and everyone looked amazing!

During the planning process my questions were always answered and they were able to accommodate schedule changes. I also appreciated that they prioritized health & safety and had a plan in place for touch ups if anyone had to wear a mask over their makeup during their hair appointment. I would absolutely work with them again!

WarPaint International – Twin Cities location was amazing to work with and have as my onsite wedding day makeup and hair artists. I had Keely do my bridal makeup and LOVED it! During our trial she took notes on what worked and what would need adjustment on the day of. I went with the airbrush option and so happy I did because my makeup lasted the entire day, in the month of July! Katie was the second makeup artist that assisted Keely with some of my bridesmaid’s makeup who had nothing but great things to say about theirs as well.

Both MOG and MOB loved their looks and appreciated being able to give feedback on the spot and have both Keely and Katie pivot as needed.
Now, let’s talk about Kathleen and her amazing hair styling talents. Kathleen was a blessing and I couldn’t be more happy with the final updo results. My maid of honor as well as the MOB got their hair styled by Kathleen and killed it with both updo’s and the blowout she did.

We all loved our looks and couldn’t have asked for a better hairdresser. I will add I had a very ethnically diverse bridal party (Japan, Ethiopia, Panama, and Mexico) and WarPaint was able to accommodate all skin tones and hair textures. Would highly recommend booking with WPI for your special day and if you are lucky, you could get any of these three amazing ladies 😊.

I booked Warpaint for bridal make up and bridesmaid makeup about a week after we decided to postpone our wedding to 2021. I was super bummed about the postponement and actually not planning on having professional makeup for my 2020 wedding. When I reached out to Warpaint in April 2020, I got excited again after a super stressful couple of months not knowing the effects of COVID.

First off, Jessica was extremely responsive. We set up a phone call within 24 hours. On that first call, we discussed my vision and even set a 2021 trial date! When my bridal make up trial date finally came around in June 2021, the process was SO smooth and FUN! I had Mia as my trial and day-of artisan (you are amazing, Mia!). She came to my house for the trial so I was nice and comfortable!

My mom even sat in on the trial too! We FINALLY got married July 17, 2021, and I couldn't be happier with my over year-long experience with Warpaint. On wedding day, Mia glammed me up! I wanted something a bit more over the top with make up compared to what I normally do. She NAILED IT - the airbrush, lashes, dark lip, flashy eyes, all the things were PERFECT!

I felt so beautiful. My mom and a few bridesmaids also had their makeup done by Mia. They looked flawless and their make up lasted the very warm day full of sunshine and hardcore dancing. I recommend Warpaint International for make up (I did not use their hair services, but they look fabulous as well!) without hesitation. I have several friends who are now in the wedding planning process, and I will continue to pass their name on and tell them about my experience.

In addition to providing an extremely high quality service during the trial and wedding day, their communication was impressive! Anyone planning a wedding knows that communications with vendors can make or break your experience. Warpaint always replied within 24 hours (usually within the hour!) and made me feel so so special on my big day. Seriously. Look no further! These are your wedding day artisans to make you feel the most beautiful you have ever felt in your life

My makeup artist bailed out on me last minute and Warpaint international came to the rescue! I reached out to them on chat and I got a call back from Mariah who helped find an artist within an hour and I was booked and set for my big day! Sammi my makeup artist was super amazing! She was so friendly and she did an amazing job with my hair and makeup!

She was able to create the perfect look for me. She arrived on time and was super professional
Thank you Mariah and Sammi for being so amazing! I would definitely recommend Warpaint international to anyone who is looking for help with their hair and makeup for their big day !

I could not be happier with my experience with WPI! My bridal party and I were lucky enough to work with Keely (hair and makeup artists) and Kathleen (hair stylist) on my wedding day. They made sure we were always on time and were open to looking at our inspiration photos while suggesting what they thought was best. I felt so confident on my wedding day because my trial with Keely went perfectly.

We were a little nervous about how COVID restrictions would affect our hair and makeup process, but we felt completely safe with WPI and it all worked out great. I would absolutely recommend WPI and their team because of our experience with them!

The WPI team has been more than flexible with helping me deal with COVID-19 and rescheduling my wedding 2 times. They always respond to my emails in a timely manner. The team was able to complete my wedding makeup trial and it was beautiful. Highly recommend!

Jessica and Keely were amazing doing our makeup and hair for my wedding. Being as picky as I am, I had wanted to tweak some things for the big day, which made me nervous, but with their talent and reassurance, everything turned out truly stunning. It was so much fun to have them there - they were so upbeat despite the early start to the morning! I would definitely recommend them for any special event (like a wedding) in your life!

I had the best experience with Lori from WPI. She gave me the wedding hairstyle of my dreams and helped me feel so relaxed on the big day! The booking process with WPI was super easy and I would highly recommend their services!!

Jessica came to my hotel, and not only made me look beautiful, but feel beautiful for my son's wedding! I live out of state, and was an emotional mom, but guess what! I was the most beautiful mother of the groom in the entire wedding!!!

I loved working with WPI for my wedding and engagement party. Jessica was so easy to work with, and the artist, Mariah was fantastic and so talented. I loved my hair and makeup for the wedding, it was perfect! It lasted the whole afternoon and evening, no touch ups needed! I was going to write sooner, but I wanted to wait to be able to show them my pictures that showed off the hair and makeup so beautifully!

The services for me and “the moms” was above and beyond what I expected - beautiful, creative, and perfect. Mariah was wonderful to work with for the trial, engagement party and for the wedding!

Warpaint was the best decision I made for my wedding look. They were so easy to communicate with, schedule the trial, create a beauty timeline, and break down all the cost options. All of my bridesmaids and both moms used them. Even my husband got his hair done! Everyone arrived on time and ready to go the day of. Jessica, Mariah, Mia, Lori, Natalie and Heather were amazing to work with!

Full of energy and professional. We rocked our looks through a three hour picture session in 90 degree weather (in September!) and well into the night. Highly, highly recommend

I was very fortunate to have Jessica + Mariah from WarPaint as part of my wedding day. They were wonderful and an enjoyable way to begin our day. From hair to makeup and my trial run, the entire process was delightful. They were easy to talk to and were great at hearing and recreating the vision that myself, my bridesmaids + Mom and mother-in-law wanted. Thank you to the WarPaint team!

I would highly recommend WarPaint International to any bride. I used this company for my wedding which was held in Duluth. Jennifer and Mia were the artisans and did a phenomenal job! Both Jennifer and Mia were fun, professional and sanitary. Both made sure the services they provided were satisfactory to each member in the bridal party before the finishing touches were made. Jennifer rocked the updos , she was ahead of schedule.

Everyone looked beautiful! I received so many compliments throughout the night! Thanks Jennifer and Mia for being apart of my special day! I am so happy you were able to take care of me and my girls on my big day!

From Start to finish WarPaint was better than I could even imagine. I was a very timid bride because I don't get dressed up much or like to wear too much makeup. I showed Mariah a few photos of how I wanted my hair and honestly I think it turned out better than the pictures! Everyone was talking about how much they liked it. Jessica Mae stepped in to cover last minute and I feel very lucky to have had her doing my make-up.

She made me feel at ease and comfortable so I knew I could trust her to make me look and feel amazing. This was my first time having air brush makeup done and I LOVED it! Jessica hit the nail on the head and my makeup was perfect! It was natural, fresh and not over the top at all.
Looking back at pictures I love my overall look and my hair and makeup made my look complete! Thank you again Jessica and Mariah for making me look and feel like a million dollars on my wedding day!
