Testimonials:
“Ara is cheerful and funny and it was good that she got a long with mysuppliers – my photographer and videographer – which helped create the goofy atmosphere we had during the preps which was clearly reflected in our onsite AVP! She also was very proactive in communicating either via email or text, so never akong nahirapan sa kanya na nahagilapin siya. Even after the wedding, she texted to tell me she saw the photos and video and was soooo impressed!”– Nikki

“I love Ara! She instantly became a confidante and shock-absorber! She was funny, ma-chicka and relaxed. Since I didn’t sleep
and cried the night before (not to mention zits left and right due to stress), imagine how FUGLY I was when I woke up. I don’t know what Ara did but by the time I looked at myself in the mirror, it was unbelievable. She didn’t only make me look BEAUTIFUL, she made sure I was also tension-free and HAPPY. She gave me tips on how to relieve stress, the proper way to breathe and even cry! I loved what she did on my hair. My husband didn’t want me to wear an updo because he said I’ll look smaller. For the ceremony, Ara was able to pull off a hairstyle that was an updo but didn’t look like it. Her goal was to show off my beautiful bolero by putting my hair away from it. But during the reception, she transformed me into this princess-like being. People kept on raving how beautiful I looked. Di ko alam kung bola lang or talagang totoo. “– Izzy

“She performed magic on me! She also did the makeup of my sister maid of honor and 1 bridesmaid. Her makeup did not cause my skin to crack. It was very fresh and naturally beautiful (despite the absence of real natural beauty) at the church. At the reception, after my retouch, I was glamorous. Dami talaga bumati. Ara is very easy to talk to, very flexible, punctual, professional” — Jean

“Ara was as warm as ever, always cracking jokes and making me laugh. Really, she’s so down to earth, she makes you feel
like you’ve known each other a long time. Her make-up on me was really glowing and I looked like myself still with just my better features highlighted. The rest of the family looked really nice too, none of them had pasty make-up and none looked weird. I even asked her to give h2b some powder because I was afraid that he’ll look too shiny. Okay na okay ang kinalabasan! H2b was dashing without looking like a metrosexual.”– Malou
