Virginia Beach and Beyond
An Intentional & Intimate Bridal Beauty Experience
For the bride who wants to feel calm, confident, and completely herself.
Timeless beauty begins with intention.
Bridal makeup is more than a service. It's a thoughtfully curated experience designed around your wedding day, your personal style, and the memories you'll carry for a lifetime.
At BEACHMUA, every detail is intentional. From our first conversation to the final touch before you walk down the aisle, my goal is to create a calm, personalized experience that helps you feel fully present, confident, and effortlessly beautiful.
I specialize in timeless, soft glam and elevated "no-makeup" makeup for brides who value authenticity over trends and refinement over excess.
ABOUT
01
Because timeless beauty never goes out of style.
Beauty should never compete with you.
Your makeup should enhance your natural features, photograph beautifully, and still feel like you when you look in the mirror.
That's why every product and every detail is thoughtfully chosen with intention.
MY PHILOSOPHY
I am continually inspired by the incredible women in my life, beginning with my beautiful daughter, and now my granddaughter.
My goal is to help clients feel confident and beautiful by intentionally elevating their natural beauty.
I'm the artist behind BEACHMUA, where I specialize in creating timeless bridal beauty for women who want to look like themselves, only elevated.
My love for makeup began long before it became my career. What started as childhood curiosity eventually became a calling to help women feel confident in one of life's most meaningful moments.
Today, I intentionally serve a limited number of brides each year so every client receives the personalized attention and calm experience she deserves.
To me, beautiful makeup isn't about transformation.
It's about honoring the features that already make you uniquely beautiful.
Whether you're exchanging vows on the coast or celebrating with your closest family and friends, my goal is always the same:
To help you feel relaxed, confident, and authentically yourself.

Asked Questions
What if I rarely wear makeup?
Perfect. Many of my brides don't. My signature style is designed to enhance your natural beauty while still feeling comfortable and authentically you.
Do you require bridal party minimums?
No. Some of my favorite mornings are intimate celebrations with just the bride or a small group of loved ones.
Why is a bridal preview recommended?
Your preview is more than a makeup trial.
It's an opportunity for us to refine your vision, perfect every detail, and ensure you feel completely confident before your wedding day.
Do you travel outside Hampton Roads?
Absolutely. I love traveling to take care of my brides wherever their wedding day takes them.
Travel fees are based on location and round-trip mileage and will be included in your personalized contract.
How do I reserve my date?
Your wedding date is officially reserved once your signed contract and $200 retainer have been received. For à la carte services, a 50% deposit is required to reserve your appointment.
How far in advance should I reserve my wedding day makeup?
I recommend reaching out 6 to 12 months in advance, and even earlier for popular wedding dates. I intentionally accept a limited number of weddings each year so I can give each bride a personal, thoughtful experience. If BEACHMUA is one of the vendors you know you’d love to have as part of your day, I always recommend reaching out sooner rather than later.
WHY BEACHMUA
05
Because your wedding morning should feel as beautiful as it looks.
My brides aren't looking for dramatic transformations.
They're looking for:
• Makeup that still feels like them
• A calm start to their wedding day
• Someone who listens before picking up a brush
• Timeless photographs they'll love decades from now
• An experience that feels personal from beginning to end

"Monica is an
absolute angel.
She made me feel so comfortable during my trials and made sure to use products that fit my features. She brought my inspiration to life and made me feel so darn beautiful on my big day! Don’t miss out on my girl, Monica!"
"Monica
WAS absolutely
amazing!! "
She arrived at the perfect time and was able to squeeze in an extra bridesmaid! She also made sure that we left with a touch up kit that included a swatch of my lipstick.
"Monica
did amazing job,
beside making my daughter look beyond beautiful on her wedding day, she was able to doll me up also!! Very personal and such an artist!
"Monica is
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is kind, incredibly talented, detail-oriented, and the best at what she does :) If you are looking for natural glam and great vibes, she is your girl!!! I cannot recommend her enough!!!!!!
"Monica was so
amazing to work with!
While she was doing my makeup, she explained what she was doing at each step. She also told me about the products she used so I was aware of what was being put onto my face. She made my skin look absolutely flawless yet it did not feel like I was wearing a lot of make up. I highly recommend booking Beachmua"!
"I met Monica
at a bridal Event.
I was skeptical at 1st. As a black woman it's very hard to find someone that can do your make up and find the right tone.This was not the case with Monica!! She was very experienced and knows what she was doing ! She did an amazing job. I looked natural and not overdone. Book with her for Bridal Evebts , Photo shoots, special occasions, & individual sessions ! You won't be disappointed.
