Hi, I’m Jess — oldest of three, mom of three, and someone who’s mastered the art of keeping calm no matter what’s happening around me. (A skill that comes in handy on wedding mornings more than you’d ever imagine.)
When I was young, I knew I wanted to do hair. Alternatively, my parents dreamed of giving me the college experience they never had — so I went to college (shout out Montclair State) I earned an education degree, taught for a year, and then I realized something deeply important.
This wasn’t my ending!
So I did what any woman with intuition, ambition, and a dreamer at heart would do — walked away from my safe job and enrolled into hair school 3 months pregnant with my first born.
This was the decision that led me to the work I truly love.
Today, I’ve had the privilege of glamming over 1,000 brides, creating refined, long-lasting, camera-ready looks that withstand every moment — from the quiet, emotional ones to the champagne-soaked celebrations. My artistry blends technical precision, elevated style, and an intuitive understanding of what will make you look and feel your best.
I bring calm energy, big-sister vibes, and a touch of sentimental magic to your day — because looking beautiful is important, but feeling supported, seen, and completely stress-free? That matters just as much.
Luxury glam with heart.
I’ve been with Beyoutiful Bride since 2016, which basically makes me the unofficial glue (and sometimes the glitter) that keeps this whole operation together. From the moment you inquire to the moment you say “I do,” I’m the one making sure everything feels seamless, organized, and—dare I say—enjoyable.
Born with a binder in hand, I keep every detail locked in, color-coded, and handled. After earning my business management degree from Monmouth University, I followed my love for beauty straight into cosmetology school so I could blend weddings, beauty, and business into one dream job.
Most importantly, I’m all about the relationships we build here. Every Beyoutiful client gets the attention, care, and hype-woman energy they deserve.
Things like knowing ahead of time exactly what to expect so you aren’t anxious when the day comes. Or feeling confident that you can go out and cry tears of joy through your “I dos” because you have a team of talented makeup artists ready to brush up your makeup before the reception starts.
Over the years of helping hundreds of (happy!) brides, we’ve gotten our process down to a science so your experience with us is easy as cutting the cake.
Even though Beyoutiful Bride is an on-location Hair & Makeup Beauty Company servicing mostly NY, NJ, and CT, we loveee to travel - nationally AND internationally. We’ve been lucky to visit places like Arizona, Texas, Florida, Aruba, and Portugal so far.
The only question left:
where’s your wedding?
