Samantha Pretto Make-Up + Hair Reviews 

Samantha was nothing short of INCREDIBLE for our wedding. She did an amazing job and brought so much happiness and joy to our day! So much so we insisted she join us for dinner (thank you again for joining, Samantha)! We love her, and would not hesitate to recommend her or work with her again <3

Samantha is absolutely amazing she gave me a fantastic trial experience! I’m so excited for her to do my wedding day hair and makeup I know I’m in great hands! ❤️

Samantha and her team were nothing short of wonderful and so easy to work with. I was easily able to schedule my hair and makeup trial for my wedding along with the wedding day schedule for myself and my bridesmaids. Samantha takes the time to ensure she understands your personal style and preferences then discuss your vision to ensure you are the perfect you on your wedding day. Upon meeting her I felt so comfortable and it made the entire process stress free. We were able to perfectly create my bridal look and then tweak the small changes I wanted on the day. All while maintaining a fun, loving, stress free environment. Samantha is a stunningly talented woman and I would highly recommend her and her team!

One of the things that stood out to me about Samantha was her warm personality. From the moment I met her, she was so easy to talk to and comfortable to work with. As an Asian person with monolids, it’s sometimes difficult to find someone who knows how to work with these features, and Samantha did a great job and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I also have straight hair that doesn’t hold curls very well, but after Samantha styled my hair, the curls held up throughout the whole day! I was also impressed by her professionalism — she’s always on time (even early!), keeps her brushes clean, and provided me with a little makeup remover/touch-up kit for the wedding day. Highly recommend booking Samantha for your wedding day!

Samantha and her team were amazing! She did a wonderful job getting my girls and me ready for the big wedding day. She took into account everybody’s special wishes and made everyone look just amazing. We also loved the products that she used! They were perfect for a beautiful glowy and sunkissed look and lasted the entire evening without dehydrating the skin. Before the make-up, she also gave me a little facial treatment which was just the best to relax and lose a bit of the pre-wedding stress. Samantha was also super professional. Even though she is really busy, she always responded to my questions and took the time to align on the perfect look for the style of my wedding dress. She and her team were super on time and left the place super clean. And just as a side note: she is also so amazingly friendly to everyone! Talking to her during the getting ready just takes all the stress away. We all just loved her and would recommend booking her without hesitation!

Samantha is the best. I felt so beautiful on my ceremony day because of her. I could not have asked for better hair and makeup for this day. Even without a trial, the look was exactly what I had envisioned. Since I don’t wear a lot of makeup, I wanted a more natural look and she truly made me feel like a princess while still feeling like myself. She was professional and easy to communicate with since day one. She was very supportive and kind on the day of the ceremony as well. Would recommend to all!

Samantha was amazing in every possible way. As a U.S. bride getting married in Italy, I wasn't able to meet Samantha or do a trial until the day before our wedding. Immediately upon meeting Samantha for the hair and makeup trial, I felt completely at ease and relaxed. Shocking considering it was the day before our international wedding and we were traveling with many family members. Spending the time with Samantha the day before the wedding was an absolute treat. It was as if she knew what I wanted without me even knowing. On wedding day, her and her team were perfect with prepping me, my bridal party of 8, my mother, and mother in law. I would HIGHLY recommend Samantha to anyone for their bridal hair and makeup!

Absolute perfection. I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day, thanks to Samantha and her team. She was professional, kind, and a true artist. Thank you Samantha for making me feel like a princess.

Honestly I do not have the words to express how incredible and amazing Samantha is at her job. She is a genius! I didn't have a trial with Samantha and yet she nailed every element.

She is incredibly personable and gentle and makes you feel so at ease. So professional and thoughtful and talked me through every step of the way. My make-up was amazing, truly brought out all of my features in the best way possible, and I felt amazing. It also crucially stayed all day. And the hair! It was perfect and exactly what I'd had in my head for all of the months leading up to the big day. It was all exactly what I wanted. And her facial was to die for.

I enjoyed every single moment that she and her team were with us on my wedding morning. I would do it all again if I could. Thank you to the moon and back Samantha!

Do not hesitate to book! It's the best decision you'll make on your big day.

I had the absolute pleasure of having Samantha as my makeup artist and hairstylist for my wedding, and I cannot praise her enough for the incredible work she did. From start to finish, Samantha exceeded all my expectations and made me feel like an absolute queen on my special day. She has an incredible eye for detail and listened attentively to my vision, resulting in a flawless makeup look and a hairstyle that perfectly complemented my bridal gown. She truly brought my dream wedding look to life, and I couldn't have been happier with the results. Her warm and friendly demeanor put me at ease throughout the entire process, making it a fun and stress-free experience. She was incredibly patient and took the time to ensure every aspect of my makeup and hair was perfect, even making last-minute adjustments to ensure I looked my best. I received countless compliments on my makeup and hair throughout the day, and I have Samantha to thank for making me feel so beautiful and confident on my wedding day.

Samantha is just the best of the best! She is so professional and knowledgeable about the world of makeup. Her positive and fun energy makes everyone around her immediately comfortable. Samantha made the day so special for me and my 7 bridesmaids and our moms. I want t hang out with her and have her do my makeup every day!

Working with Samantha was so lovely. She made everyone feel like a complete princess and catered to everyone’s individual styles. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Samantha was amazing for my bridal hair and makeup. As a bride from Australia having a destination wedding in Italy I was concerned with if the look would translate. Samantha did an amazing job and I absolutely loved the result. Highly recommend the trial, as you need time to determine what you like (if you don’t often have professional makeup and hair done!) Samantha was kind and fun to have on the wedding day!

Samantha and her team were absolutely perfect. Samantha created a wonderful atmosphere, has real attention to detail and is excellent at her work. I would really recommend her! I am so happy I picked Samantha both for her professionalism but also because she created such a lovely atmosphere.

I was lucky enough to have my hair and makeup done for my wedding last Saturday. Samantha did a beautiful job and I was so happy with the results, even better than I could have imagined. But probably more important is Samantha as a person, she is just wonderful. She put me so at ease and made my time with her feel like a really special part of my day. Grazie mille Samantha!

Cannot recommend Samantha and her team enough! They provided bridal makeup and hairstyling for myself, my Maid of Honour and my mum at my recent wedding in Tuscany, and each look was flawless. The attention to detail was second to none and we all received many compliments. Samantha and her team made us feel completely comfortable, even helping to calm my nerves before the ceremony, and were just genuinely lovely ladies. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a luxury hair and makeup experience :)

Samantha and her team are truly amazing artists. They made the whole bridal party and myself feel extra beautiful on the big day. Samantha is kind, caring and really listens to your vision for hair and makeup. She really makes sure that her brides are feeling their best. Everyone was taken care of so well. Samantha is super passionate with her work and it really shows. Thank you Samantha for making me look and feel the best at my wedding rehearsal and wedding day. No hesitation that she is the best out there!

If you are a bride getting married in Italy, Samantha is the makeup artist for you. With the help of my wedding planner, I selected Samantha Pretto to do my bridal makeup, as well as my bridesmaids and mother. Being a US bride, I was completely unsure of what to expect. Samantha and her team blew me away. Not only were they professional, on time, comforting, and enjoyable to be around but they did the BEST job on our makeup. Not to mention, Samantha's bridal makeup package included a mini facial which helped me to relax and GLOW! I wanted to look natural, but like a bride and Samantha did just that. I was obsessed with my makeup and it stayed on for the entire day with no issues. I would use Samantha again and again and can't recommend her services enough!

Such a great experience! My sister in laws, my mother in law, and my mom and I loved our hair and makeup for the wedding! Samantha did great work and we loved our looks!

I booked Samantha for my bridal party hair and makeup for my wedding in Rome October 2022. They were incredible! I couldn’t have been happier with the results, Samantha listened and delivered exactly what I asked for. On top of being extremely talented, Samantha and her team were such a lovely presence to have with us on the wedding morning. Her calm and funny nature was exactly what was needed to keep the mood relaxed!

Samantha made the whole process so easy from the beginning to end, including a great trial a few months beforehand. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Samantha!
