Jennifer Saunders

Hi I am Jennifer the Owner and Lead Hair and Makeup Artist at The Veil. I have always been an artist since drawing with chalk on the sidewalk as a child. Painting and illustration is something I always thrived in.

I have a graphic design degree from AI that definitely helped me find my way into my favorite mediums, makeup and hair styling!

I thrive in a setting filled with people and love sharing in our brides day! I love meeting their friends and family and I feel honored to be sharing such a special time with our clients.

I continue to learn and grow to stay on trend and give brides the look they are hoping for. My favorite hair and makeup styles are romantic, rustic and bohemian. I love bringing our clients' vision to life!! 

Sade Taylor

Hi I’m Sade! One of the Lead hair stylists at the Veil. My passion of hair and everything beautiful started well before I met Jenn in 2017. I’m a salon kid so my love of creating beautiful hair is in my blood. I was a stylist behind the chair for 6 years , before I became a wife and mom of 3 and made my transition into bridal hair.

I absolutely love working with brides and bridesmaids to bring to life what they are envisioning on the big day. My favorite styles to do are boho, romantic, and ethereal. I love continuing to learn new techniques, tips and popular styles to keep up with what’s trending.

Above all I love my job and traveling to meet incredible people. Knowing that I nailed a style or made someone look incredible is the most fulfilling to me.

Hey beautiful! My name is Haley, and bridal makeup is my passion.

I graduated from JMU (Go Dukes!) in 2014 and became an elementary school teacher. During this time, I was a bridesmaid 8 times! I was able to do makeup for some of my very best friends, and this is where I discovered my love for the wedding industry and bridal makeup. I love the creative opportunity makeup gives me, and am constantly evolving and growing as an artist.

I am passionate about helping women look absolutely gorgeous, while still feeling comfortable and true to themselves. My favorite part of the experience is learning about and getting to know my brides, and celebrating their love story with them on the big day! I leave each wedding feeling so grateful to have been a small part of it!
