We at Phoenix Bride & Groom feel our vendors are the best in the business, and here’s yet another confirmation:

Sedona makeup artist Liz Margin has been awarded the Bride’s Choice Award 2010 for makeup artistry.

In addition to being much-loved by the locals, Liz is a true pro in her field. Her roster of celeb clients includes Heidi Klum, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and Chloe Sevigny.

The native New Yorker moved to Sedona in 2005 where her primary focus has been bringing her talents to brides.

“Of all the famous people I have worked with and all the exotic places I’ve traveled in my career, this award is one of the highlights,” says Liz. “It means I’ve pleased the most important clients I’ve ever worked with: my brides. I’m honored to have their confidence.”
