Our Story

Who are the artists Behind the Veil? Where did we get our start? Twelve years in the making, we are so excited to share our story with you! The concept of our company came about after seeing a huge need in the area for onsite bridal services! There are so many local salons that offer wedding day hair and makeup, but how amazing is it to be able to wake up on your big day, in your robe, with all your girls (and maybe even a bottle of bubbly) and have your own personal team of artists arrive to pamper and create gorgeous looks for you and all of your best friends and family!

Let’s back up a bit. Founded by long time friends Angela Papa and Maria Sung, we met while both working for beauty companies in Annapolis – Angela was the resident makeup artist for Lancome Cosmetics and Maria was working as a lead stylist for a high-end hair salon. We quickly became good friends and decided to collaborate on a few weddings together starting all the way back in 2007. After a few years of teaming up and realizing that, with our shared talents, we were an amazing duo, we decided to make our vision a reality and in 2010 Behind the Veil, LLC was officially created.

Working alongside and developing relationships with many of the area’s top wedding professionals, others took notice and our business started building a positive reputation within the wedding community. After just a few short months, we received our first of many bridal awards recognizing our high level of talent and service. Soon after, we were blown away by the huge response of excited brides seeking our expertise! As our company grew, we started searching for other talented artists and hand-picked a few with years of experience and impressive backgrounds to join our team.

Fast forward to today, we have grown into an amazing team of over 30 professional artists and added two incredible bridal coordinators to keep things running seamlessly. Our team has worked with thousands of brides, received countless awards for our passion and dedication, have been featured in local and national publications, and have had the honor of experiencing so many incredible moments working with each of our brides as they have prepared for their special day. How amazing it is to be able to turn your passion into a fulfilling life-long career, work with your best friends, create gorgeous hair and makeup, and see a bride’s beaming smile as you help her get ready for her wedding day! We get to do what we love and are so blessed! Thank you to all of our brides, friends, family and fellow wedding pros for your continued love and support!

We hope you enjoy browsing our website! We’ve highlighted our awards, press features, and photos from our gorgeous brides over the years! Follow us to see all of our exciting collaborations, projects, inspiration, and behind the scenes snapshots from our weddings and styled shoots! We are so excited for all of the amazing opportunities we’ve been so lucky to have over the last ten years and the endless possibilities that lie ahead! We could never have imagined where Behind the Veil would be today and are beyond excited to continue our journey!

Received the sweetest review from our gorgeous bri Received the sweetest review from our gorgeous bride Stephanie!! How stunning was her hair and makeup!? And that dress, the flowers...every detail of this wedding day was absolutely breathtaking! 💕

"Behind the Veil did the hair and makeup for me, my 5 bridesmaids, my mom, mother-in-law, and grandmother. They came to our hotel in Stevensville, MD which made the day run so smoothly. They made sure we all looked absolutely STUNNING. Everyone’s hair and makeup looked perfect and stayed perfect all night long. They communicated with me a few months before to schedule my trial, and then again a few weeks before the wedding to finalize the headcount and timeline. On the day of, the stylists texted me to stay in contact about their arrival. They were both so sweet and personable."
