Hi! My name is Nicole Jarzobski. It’s so nice to meet you! I’m a traveling makeup artist in Gretna, Nebraska, specializing in bridal and special event makeup. I have been in the beauty industry for over 8 years, and have been doing bridal makeup for 5 years. It is my passion to make everyone feel beautiful and confident!

“NICOLE!! First off, I knew I wanted to Nicole to do my wedding makeup a year before I even got engaged once I saw her work on instagram. So after I had picked a date and venue, she was the first vendor I booked. Since the first contact, Nicole was professional, communicative and lovely to work with. She made the booking process easy and was quick to respond to any questions. Fast forward to 6 week before my wedding, we had the trial. I went to her studio and it was so cute! It was a beautiful, professional space. As soon as I walked in I felt like I was treated with such respect and like a valued client. She took the time to ask questions about what I wanted and we went through my inspiration pictures. The trial lasted approx 1.5 hours and I loved it! It felt like she really took her time to perfect my makeup. When I saw it, my jaw dropped. I was stunned at how perfect the makeup looked. It was better than I could have imagined. On the wedding day, Nicole arrived early and was set up and ready to begin right on time. As a type A girlie, I appreciated that. I let each of the girls pick their own style of makeup and Nicole perfectly accommodated everyone including multiple different skin tones and make comfortability levels. She also brought a wonderful second artist, Marisol. All my girls LOVED their makeup. The ones that opted to not get their makeup done regretted it after seeing their work. The makeup lasted sooo well on the wedding day. I even slept in it (on accident) and it was still amazing the next morning. The lashes perfectly still on. I got so many compliments on my makeup. I couldn't recommend Nicole enough!”

Hi, I’m Stacia I’ve been styling brides hair in Iowa since 2010 while I was still in school. I spent hours perfecting the bride’s look, and as I watched everything come together, I realized how much I loved the energy of weddings. The way hair can transform a person and complete their entire bridal look—there was something magical about it. Hair comes in all shapes, sizes, and textures, and I see it as a blank canvas to create a style that’s as unique as you are. Whether you want timeless elegance, romantic waves, or a soft boho vibe, I’ll bring your vision to life with care and attention to detail.

“Bespoke Beauty LLC provided excellent communication throughout the entire wedding planning process. They were always there to answer any questions I had, no matter how big or small. Stacia, the lead stylist, did an incredible job with my hair as well as the hair of my 6-year-old daughter, both mothers, and my siblings. Bespoke Beauty LLC was a true problem solver, working hard and efficiently to ensure we all looked and felt our absolute best on the big day. I highly recommend their services to any couple planning their wedding.”

Bailee Cribb Bridal

5.0

Starts at $2,700
Serves Council Bluffs, IA for additional fees

I’m Bailee, the artist behind Coastal Editorial Glam™ and the signature Bailee Wave + Sculpt™. Brides come to me for hair and makeup with intention behind every line — structured where it needs strength, soft where it needs ease, and built with the kind of precision you’d expect backstage, not in a crowded bridal suite. My work sits in that space between coastal air and editorial clarity: skin that looks refined without effort, and waves that hold their silhouette long after the first look.

“I recently had a bridal hair trial with Bailee and couldn’t be happier with the results! I requested Hollywood waves, and she executed them perfectly—better than I ever imagined. Bailee is not only talented but also sweet, easy to talk to, and very personable. She took her time to ensure everything was just right, yet the entire process only took about two hours. She also added a volume weft, which really elevated the style I wanted. I highly recommend Bailee for your wedding hair needs!”

“Michelle helped me out after my previous hair for my wedding cancelled on me fairly close to my wedding day! I had a large wedding party and she was flexible in working with another hair stylist on site to make sure all my girls looked and felt beautiful! Everyone LOVED their hair. Some even didn't know what they wanted and she gave great recommendations based on their hair. She went above and beyond when a couple of my girls who has their hair done by someone else off site didn’t love their hair, so she last minute helped them out and fixed it so they were happy with their hair! Cannot recommend Michelle enough!”
