Cait Bronsky Beauty Co

"Cait and her team did hair and makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law on my wedding day and she was fabulous! I don't wear makeup or style my hair much on a daily basis, so I was nervous about finding the right inspiration and figuring out what I wanted. While I was engaged I'd had two major surgeries and was really struggling to stay ahead of wedding planning while recovering, so I only started reaching out to hair and makeup artists three and a half months before my wedding (which I know is super late in the game, so I was ridden with anxiety that they'd all think I was crazy and have no availability). Cait was very understanding, quick to respond, and great about breaking down details and pricing. Since my venue wouldn't let us into their wedding cottage until 10 a.m., we ended up moving our getting-ready session to the bridal suite of our hotel. While this was a bummer and super stressful at first, I'm ultimately glad I trusted Cait's opinion so that we had the proper amount of time and space allotted to stay relaxed, enjoy the morning, and not feel rushed through the process. She really knows her stuff and has it down to a science! When I did my trial, Cait worked with me for basically an entire workday to make sure we nailed down exactly what I wanted. She was able to bring my vision to life (before I even knew what it was) from inspiration photos and then helped me decide on some tweaks. She pinned hair back, pulled it out, tested multiple accessories I'd brought to consider, lightened up eye makeup, etc. And she did an AMAZING job experimenting to blend/cover up my large surgical scar (elbow to shoulder)—everyone told me they couldn't even tell it was there, which was so important to me. Cait was also super friendly and really easy to talk to in person, so we had plenty to chat about during the trial and on the wedding day which made it fun and relaxing. I really appreciated all of that, as well as her being very responsive to texts with questions about products and plans for the day of. My makeup stayed perfectly throughout the wedding day and my hair stayed mostly in place—some of the curls did fall straight between the wind, being driven on a golf cart, and probably some sweating and general movement, but I know my hair always has trouble holding a curl so I figured it wouldn't stay perfect (only wish I'd thought to remind her of that the day of to see if we could've curled a little tighter). If you have a lot of people getting ready and have an early start, I would definitely suggest adding touch-ups to her package. She came over to the wedding cottage with us around noon so that I could have some official "getting ready" photos in the space I wanted and to do some cleanup on lipstick and a few of the girls' hairstyles that had come loose. Definitely worth the peace of mind doing that right before photos, and the bonus was she even helped me into my dress. The most important thing was that I looked and felt like myself, but also felt bridal and pretty—something I don't say often. I received so many compliments on how natural yet gorgeous the look was, and I agree Cait completely nailed it!"

"When you feel welcomed warmly ✔ When the environment is pretty, thoughtful and organized ✔ When all of the details are taken into consideration: your hair is not tugged, it is cared for; ✔ when the details of smell, color, time, are taken into consideration ✔ When the artist loves what they are doing and take time, care and focus to do it just right ✔ Bonus: When the artist puts on the perfect colors without your input; when the artist notes the brands they used; and finally – it has been a long time since I wanted to buy products that were used on me because they were exactly the right color. ✔✔✔ The amount of thought, care and detail I found in Cait is unmatched."

"Caitlyn Bronsky exceeded my expectations for my hair and makeup on my wedding day. I’ve been set in my ways regarding my hair and makeup for years, and haven’t had anyone touch my hair other than my mother (a licensed cosmetologist) in my entire life. I also feared looking like someone other than myself with my hair and makeup professionally done… but that was NOT the case. I have never felt so beautiful AND comfortable in my entire life. Immediately after beginning to communicate with Caitlyn via email, she was extremely warm, kind, honest, and helpful. During the first trial, it was very evident that she cared about my vision, concerns, etc. and wanted to make me look and feel my best on my wedding day. Myself, my four bridesmaids, and my mother all had our hair and makeup done. Even with a 6:30 AM start, our hair and makeup stayed FLAWLESS until the moment we got home after 11:00PM- EVEN WITH RAIN! Caitlyn was extremely fun to have spend the day with us before the ceremony and reception. She is indecible easy to talk to, radiates with positivity, and takes incredible pride in what she does. From start to finish, the experience with Caitlyn was amazing and myself, my mother, and my girls had never felt so comfortable and beautiful. Whether it’s another big event, someone needs a recommendation, or if I ever decide to change my hair style and/or color, I will not think twice about going to anyone else other than Caitlyn Bronsky! She is the best at what she does, and it shows in every client she works with"

"Hands down the best hair and makeup I’ve had done. Cait is so nice and works with you on your vision and also her own suggestions. She did my hair and makeup for my bridal shower and it was flawless. Would recommend 10/10."

"Caitlyn, Owner of Cait Bronsky Beauty Co. is extremely knowledgeable in her craft and beyond talented. Caitlyn was my makeup artist for my bridal shower as well as my wedding day and she made me feel absolutely beautiful in my own skin. I truly felt the glam of a bride but in a natural way which is something that was very important to me. For someone who typically does not wear a lot of makeup I was thrilled at how my makeup lasted all day and did not make me break out in the days following, due to Caitlyn’s technique and high quality products she uses on her clients. Caitlyn was in touch with me periodically throughout the wedding year to check in on any changes and provided me with a soft timeline ahead of time which helped to structure my morning with my bridal party and photo/video team. On the wedding day, Caitlyn arrived early with her team to set up, which helped to keep our entire day on track as planned. Since we were getting ready in a Victorian hotel, the parlor of my suite had couches instead of the high chairs you tend to see in the salons. Fortunately Caitlyn comes prepared and had her own makeup chairs with her to ensure everyone’s comfort. Thanks to Caitlyn's organization and time management our morning timeline went smoothly as she and her team worked on myself, my Mother, and 8 Bridesmaids. She is very sociable and makes great conversation while also making each client feel relaxed and pampered during their session. Thanks to Caitlyn she set us up for wedding day success and couldn’t have been happier to see the results once we received our professional photos. I will continue to recommend Caitlyn to future Brides and look forward to getting ready with her for future events! Photos by: Forever Photography (Brooklyn, New York)"
