Flood Mansion San Francisco Wedding VDO: Serena & Alan

Reviewed on Yelp

Jira is a makeup super-hira!  (Superhero, for those who can’t “hear” the phonetic fun.)

Jira was my hair and makeup stylist for my wedding and her team also did the hair and makeup for my five bridesmaids. Everyone looked incredible and everyone’s hair and makeup lasted well through the entire wedding (a good 8 hours and beyond).

I purposely waited a while to write this review because I wanted to see all my wedding photos and my wedding video to do a true rating.  Truly 5 stars – everyone (especially me!) looked radiant in all mediums.  It doesn’t surprise me though because the way I found out about Wowpretty/Jira is THROUGH a video.  (I was screening for videographers and I saw a Thomas Hughes video – review to come – and one bride’s makeup was just natural, glowing and beautiful and I said, “I want that look!” and I saw her credits on the video’s website.)

I did a trial session with Jira and it was totally worth it.  Some people think it’s pricey to do, but hey, would you buy a car without taking it for a test drive?  It’s your wedding and you’ve got to make sure that the stylist makes you look your best and that you still feel like “you”, only more gorgeous on your wedding day!

This is how much I endorse Jira:
1)  I entrusted her to cut my long hair for my pre-wedding haircut.  Not only was it optimal for the updo I had chosen, but months later, it remained an all-around awesome haircut.

2)  My Maid of Honor hired Jira to do her makeup for a special event (outside of my wedding events)and even hired her for makeup lessons.

3)  I ONLY wanted Jira to do my hair and makeup.  She has a very talented crew, but I wanted the best of the best!

My bridemaids and I looked amazingly beautiful on my wedding day, Jira and her team were on time and very professional and Jira was very responsive to any questions or style requests.  Magnifique!

Seran & Alan~

Reviewed on Wedding wire! Wowpretty was one of the first vendors i hired almost immediately after i got engaged. I already knew that Jira was one of the best in the industry and i booked her quick because she gets booked up fast! I didn’t even go in for a trial and went with my gut that she would do a great job. I ended up doing a trial after i booked her and it came out exactly the way i envisioned. She understood that i wanted to look natural but still have color. She took her time to make my hair and makeup perfect. On the day of the wedding, she and four of her makeup artists all arrived on time at my hotel. They worked their butts off to get myself, 8 of my bridesmaids and 2 mothers done in 3 hours! Jira made my makeup perfect and it stayed put all day ( 6 am-midnight) ! She is extremely talented at what she does. Do not hesitate to book her if you are looking for a top notch makeup/hair team!

It was a Beautiful destination wedding at Font Mason on Jan 19, 2013. Our lovely couple live in San Diego but  right after Jira did Emily’s trial session, she reserved her wedding day right away.  Emily is lovely client and so easy to work with.  Jira had such a wonderful time on the wedding day working on Emily along with taking care of six additional women. It was also a great pleasure to work with Luke Sneyr photography again.Thank you

One of  our Wowpretty clients at San Francisco City Hall Weddings. It was such a fun wedding.  Our Wowpretty team had a great oppurtunity to take care Ester and Tim.  We ‘ve met Ester the 1st time by a referral from Ashely, which were the 2012 bride as well. 

Ashely and Ester had booked their wedding day before we had their trial session. They both decided to have the engagement photos the same day with their trial day. Wedding and Engagement days turned out so awesome as We were looking for.
They both hired one of the best photography team ” Visia Productions”   Wowpretty had the pleasure to work with Visia in more than 4 weddings in 2012.  They are very  professional and great to work with and Highly recommend.
