Elegant Pastel Clearwater Beach Wedding
“I wanted a natural, romantic glam look, something that looked fresh and played up my features without going too heavy. I wanted my hairstyle to be romantic and to incorporate a braid to be a little beach-y. Christine and the Femme Akoi team are rockstars! I loved them so much that I started going to their salon in Dunedin for hair cuts and coloring now!” – Brittany and LJ
Blush Pink and Burgundy St. Pete Beach Wedding
“For my wedding day makeup, I wanted to enhance my natural features, with emphasis on my eyes. I definitely did not want to look too made up (i.e. drag queen style). I wear my hair down almost every day, so I felt like mixing it up for the ceremony with a loose updo. To change up the look, after the wedding sunset photos, Femme Akoi stayed later to take my hair from up to down for the party. Femme Akoi was willing to do whatever it took to make me happy. They listened to my requests during the hair and makeup trial and really took those into account on the big day. I felt so beautiful, they did a stellar job!” – Lauren and Joe

I was blown away by my final look on my wedding day; they were worth every single penny! They made me feel like a ‘real’ bride, and I was excited to walk down the aisle. Anytime I show people pictures from my wedding, they ask who I had do my hair and makeup because it was that good!” – Jessica and Adam

Looking at Femme Akoi Beauty Studios‘ work, I saw many of their artists focus on accentuating natural beauty. I wanted to look like the best version of myself, and they did just that.

Grissel did my hair and makeup and was fantastic. All of the artists were really sweet, and the bridesmaids looked great!

My wedding day hair inspiration came from seeing other bridal looks on social media. I hired Femme Akoi Beauty Studio for various bridesmaids, mother of the groom, and many family members because I have worked with them before and know that they produce quality work.
I also loved that they traveled to the hotel, which was very convenient for our guests!

Classic Black and White Downtown Tampa Wedding | The Rialto
19Classic-Black-and-White-Wedding-Ideas
Femme Akoi Beauty Studio did an amazing job working through everything with me. I did an initial consultation and the look did not turn out how I had envisioned it would in my head, so they allowed me to come back and second time and try again. The girls who did my second trial matched my personality; they understood what I was looking for, and they offered suggestions based on the type of hair I have, as well as my complexion. I appreciated their honesty because they are professionals, and they know best.
The day of everything turned out perfectly! I felt beautiful without feeling overdone, which my husband also appreciated!
