Bridal Hair & Makeup Services:
As your bridal hair and makeup specialist, my goal is to make you look effortlessly, and naturally beautiful on your wedding day. I specialize in natural makeup and elegant hairstyles that make make you feel like your most beautiful and authentic self. Your hair and makeup process should be a calming and fun experience that centers you for the rest of the day, and you should feel confident knowing that you look your best without feeling overdone.
After spending two decades on both sides of the makeup chair (as a makeup artist and signed model in New York City), I understand what it takes to make somebody look and feel beautiful at the highest levels of the beauty and fashion industries. However weddings are my true passion, and it’s sincerely an honor to bring my experience and expertise to help you create the memory of a lifetime!

“Roni was a dream to work with! She helped to execute my vision for my wedding hair and makeup, and that of my bridal party as well. Coordinating with her was incredibly easy and she checked-in every step of the way to make sure that I liked how she was approaching my makeup and hair. She also gave me a goody bag with some of the products she used, so that I could touch up my makeup throughout the night. Not only would I recommend her, but I would hire her again!” -Kathryn Gonzalez
“Roni did my hair and makeup on my wedding day and I can't recommend her enough! She was so lovely to work with. She made me look and feel so beautiful. I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted for makeup when I started working with her but she helped guide me to choices that would make me look natural but glamourous and confident. She checked in throughout the process to make sure I liked all of the decisions being made. She did my mom's hair and makeup as well and I truly have never seen her look as beautiful. I would recommend Roni without hesitation.” -Jillian Robinson
“Roniann is amazing. I didn’t really know the look I wanted but my husband had one request for her. He said, “Don’t Picasso her face! “ Roni took that to heart and delivered. When I looked in the mirror I saw an enhanced and recognizable version of me. She made me look and feel beautiful. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat. Roniann brings peace and joy with her when she comes. That’s something that can’t be bought and it’s what every bride needs on her Wedding Day: Peace, Joy, and Artistry. That’s what you get when you hire Roniann Mears.” - Danielle Dorsey
“Roniann did my hair and make up in Sweden for our wedding in September of 2017. She not only made me look beautiful, she really gave me, my sister and my Mom a wonderful experience together as she did their make up as well. I felt so taken care of and can only say wonderful things about Roniann. She does her work with the utmost respect and kindness. Roniann is a touch of magic and will make your day even more special.” - Silvia Zarins
“I couldn’t be more pleased with how my wedding day hair and makeup turned out! I was struggling to find a HMU artist within budget that fit my personal style, and a friend reccomended Roni. She really understood that I wanted to look like myself on my wedding day, but with a little extra glam. I was terrified of looking too made up or like I was wearing a Instagram filter. Roni made sure I still looked like me, but the best version of me! Even after changing my idea for my hair between the trial and the wedding day, Roni made me feel totally at ease and taken care of. I couldn’t be more pleased with the work she did. I even went back for a haircut after my wedding!” -April Lavalle
“Roniann did the makeup for my wedding, which included me and two bridesmaids. I was SO happy with the results - I felt so beautiful, while still looking natural and like myself (I ordinarily don't wear a lot of makeup). Roniann really took a lot of care before the wedding to understand the look I wanted. She arrived at my hotel on the day of the wedding on time and prepared to create the desired look (lashes and everything!) She worked seamlessly with all different types of skin tones (I have dark hair with more olive undertones and my bridesmaids were a Chinese woman and a red head with very light, freckled skin) to create a cohesive look for the wedding party, while still making each one of us look natural and beautiful. Very happy - thank you, Roni!” - Laura Leigh Farber
