The studio’s owner and lead artist, Nikole Vega, shared with us a few of her tips for the best beauty experience as well as her favorite trends and weddings to date.

Q - What is your favorite location to work? What is the style that makes this location special for couples?

A - Simpson House Inn - Cottages are beautiful, they have a beautiful garden view, it’s a good space for the whole bridal party to be at the same place, and the parking is very easy.

Q - What is your #1 top piece of advice you give to couples before they hire you?

A - Makeup and hair is an artistic expression and everyone has a different style. I advise them to look at our Instagram highlights of each artist’s past work to make sure they choose the one that fulfills their expectations.

Q - What is trending with your couples?

A - Natural makeup looks that still look like you have makeup on, and Hollywood waves or half-up, half-down.

Q - What are 2 things you wish couples would do for every wedding?

A - Share the Instagram handle of their photographers and have a good space for us to set up.

Q - To date, what wedding have you done that has made the top of your favorite list, and why?

A - It was a wedding in Montecito - a private venue where everyone was very nice and gave us a good amount of time to finish everyone on time and help them all to look amazing.
