I booked Jennifer after seeing her photos, and how she enhanced the beauty of her brides while still keeping them looking like themselves. When I had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid, she was so understanding and made the process so easy. When we were finally ready to start planning again, it was a breeze setting up all of the details for the makeup trial and actual wedding day. When you’re coordinating with so many different vendors it is so great when they are able to respond to emails and my (many questions) so quickly, and Jennifer was always on it! The makeup trial was a blast, and Jennifer and her team had my bridal party looking amazing for the wedding! She came to the hair salon where we were getting ready and worked seamlessly with the stylists, getting all 8 of us ready ahead of schedule! I loved my makeup, and it still looked perfect when I took it off 14 hours later. I would (and have) recommended Jennifer to anyone looking for a fantastic makeup artist. On top of being insanely talented she is SO fun, and I can’t wait until the next wedding I am a guest at so I can work with her again 😊

Let me just start by saying Jennifer is the absolute BEST! I cannot recommend her enough. She made all my wedding dreams come true. Jennifer nailed my look as well as did the most amazing job on all my bridesmaids. All the girls loved their makeup! My original makeup artist wasn’t available on my new date. I found Jennifer and she was everything I was looking for. So professional, organized, responsive, detailed-oriented and such an artist. She’s the absolute sweetest! Jen stayed with us the whole day and made sure we all looked perfect all day. She’s so easy to work with and so fun to hangout with! I knew at my trial that she was the best. I would tell any bride to work with Jen! I also would like to note she is extremely clean and made everyone feel so safe during Covid times. Jen also gave my mom, sister and me a sweet little gift on my wedding day - which made us feel so special. Jen, I can’t thank you enough! I can’t wait to have you do my make up again. You’re the best!

I cannot recommend Jenn enough. We started our wedding planning in June 2019 for our August 2020 wedding. From the start, Jenn was absolutely fantastic – easy to work with, always bright, and extensively knowledgeable about her craft. As we got thrown curveball after curveball, Jenn was always flexible and always positive. She went above and beyond, talking me through teary-eyed phone calls and shedding light on little ways to make the process easier. Then in March we moved forward into Covid-19 season, where uncertainty was the wrecking ball of all the weddings around us. We decided to move forward with our minimized August wedding and Jenn ensured a smooth transition with the highest level of professionalism and grace. She provided endless information on sanitization and infection prevention in the context of makeup application and made each of us receiving makeup services completely at peace. Jenn made sure that while many people labeled our day as a “Covid Wedding”, that it always felt like simply… Our Wedding. An absolute gem!

I truly do not know where to even begin...Jennifer is my most beloved wedding vendor. Seeing as I quickly became a Covid bride struggling to find a plan B for our big day, the one vendor I refused to go on without was Jennifer. When I met her at my makeup trial, my mom and I instantly fell in love with her. Jennifer is so beautiful (both inside and out)-so bubbly, so relatable and so absolutely perfect! My vision for the wedding was a natural, romantic glow. I did not want my makeup caked on, any heavy lashes or eyeshadow. I wanted to look like myself but an elevated version of myself. And oh my god did Jennifer hit that vision out of the ballpark! My skin was flawless, she listened to any comments I made at the trial, and I was literally glowing once she was all done! Her aura and spirit transformed my wedding day. I was unhappy with my hair for the big day but wow, not only did Jennifer make me feel beautiful (because she is so talented) but her upbeat personality cheered me up. Due to Covid, we are having our large reception next year and I cannot help but be selfishly happy I get to work with Jennifer again next year! She was so utterly professional, responsive, and thoughtful. Jennifer-you are the best!

I cannot say enough good things about Jennifer! She is so talented. We got married on a hot July day and everyone’s makeup lasted all day and looked gorgeous. Jennifer’s makeup is absolutely beautiful and she really listens to what you want and makes sure that everyone, from mother-in-law and bridesmaids, looks like the most beautiful version of themselves. Jennifer is also incredibly organized, which to a Type-A person like me, was so welcome. Not only did she send me a beauty timeline for the months leading up to the wedding, she was 100% on schedule for completing all 7 of us day of. I didn’t have to worry about a thing! On a personal note, she’s an absolute delight, kind, funny, easygoing and really listens — and full of great makeup tips.

As the groom, I had a third party role in the wedding make up, but my wife looked drop dead gorgeous, and my 4 mothers (mom, step, MIL and step MIL) not only looked great themselves, but had nothing but great things to say about JKo beauty. She put together a look that every single one of them not only felt comfortable with, but felt like had their personality.

Jennifer is the best! Incredibly talented, kind, upbeat and professional. I had the pleasure of working with Jennifer for over a year after my wedding was postponed because of COVID. When I decided to do my own makeup for my small ceremony, I enlisted Jennifer’s expertise via Zoom to teach me some of her tricks! Not only did she have a private lesson with me, she had my entire bridal party on a group zoom makeup lesson that was informative and fun! A few months before my wedding reception, I started seeing Jennifer for my eyebrows and they never looked better! Not only is Jennifer a pro at makeup, she really understands skin care and recommended some phenomenal products and services to help me prep for my big day! I chose the top-notch package for myself on my wedding day, which included some eye masks, lip mask and Cryo-globes to soothe my skin! I opted for the airbrush for my entire bridal party, and everyone looked amazing! Jennifer respected our requests and her classic, elegant style of makeup fit with my day perfectly. She was a joy to work with and I hope I can work with her again in the future- she made me feel so beautiful!!

Five stars doesn’t do Jennifer justice. I can’t speak highly enough about my experience working with Jennifer. I had been searching for a makeup artist for my wedding for what felt like forever. After several failed trials with other artists, I finally stumbled upon Jennifer on The Knot. From the moment I contacted her, even just her response made me feel comfortable and confident in moving forward with her. Prior to my trial, Jennifer spent time truly getting to know me and listening to what it was that I dreamed of for my wedding day. In talking to her, I could hear how passionate she was about her job. Her professionalism and warm personality made me feel instantly comfortable. She is not only a skilled and talented makeup artist, but an artist who when not working with clients, spends her spare time only further educating herself and building upon her already vast knowledge base. I am so truly grateful to have been able to work with Jennifer and have her as part of my wedding day. I could not recommend Jennifer more for your wedding day!

Jennifer is the kindest, sweetest, and just genuinely nice person I have ever worked with. She was so understanding and flexible when I had to switch our wedding plans 3 times because of COVID. She listened and gave me the exact bridal look I was going for. All my bridesmaids and my MIL’s looked gorgeous as well. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for being so amazing JKo Beauty!! Book with her now. You won’t regret it!!

I got married in June and I used Jennifer for all of our makeup. I don’t wear a lot of makeup normally, and I spent a lot of time looking for a makeup artist who would make me look natural and enhanced and Jennifer killed it! At our trial she walked me through every thing she did, and took my input seriously. She had me do the trial early in the day and wear it all day, like I would on my big day. Then, she checked back in with me a few days later to see what I would change after I had worn it. It was amazing! I was able to see how well everything held up, and able to make any small changes that I wanted. I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day and I can’t thank Jennifer enough! She was professional and SO much fun to be around. She did my makeup and 6 of my girls that morning, and made the whole day so fun. When a bridesmaid decided last minute that she wanted hers done too, Jennifer didn’t blink. She made sure each bridesmaid had what they wanted, but that the whole look was still cohesive which was love. I can’t recommend her enough!!!

When it came to who I would choose to do my wedding day make up, it was a no brainer.. it was probably the easiest decision of all my planning.. Jen was the one!!!
I have had the great pleasure of getting to know Jen over the past few years, working with her & seeing her for my eyebrows every month!!!
I was extremely impressed with her skills, her vibrant personality, and her more than impressive make up kit.. aka, my dream make up kit. It made me gasp with excitement the first time I saw it!
Jen is not just an average MUA ... she goes above & beyond taking wedding make up to the next level!!!!!!!! Her professionalism is outstanding!!! I can’t brag enough about her amazing talent but as a human being too! I have so much love & respect for her! I believe any bride would be sooooo relived to know they were in such good hands on the biggest day of their lives! I know I was!
I trust her 100%!
Thank you sweetie! I loved my make up but most of all, I loved that you were a part of my day!! I’ll always cherish that!
