“I was under the impression thebrideand I had built a rapport for her to feel comfortable enough to talk to me.
“Past brides I’ve worked with have always been open and straightforward, so I am working on better communication, so a situation like this never arises again.”
Upon sharing a story on TikTok on the day of the wedding, Keziah reportedly faced scrutiny for appearing in the bride’s dress-reveal photos.
She later said that she felt “absolutely devastated” when she saw the final photos, tellingDexerto: “I had no idea and really wished someone would have told me to move out of the way… I can see how they could be upset.”

“As great as the internet can be, I’ve learned through this experience that the internet can also be very hurtful.”
Despite the widespread negative feedback, Keziah reportedly said that her bookings were “steadily coming in.”
She concluded: “On average, my team works approximately five weddings a month – and that has remained consistent.”
She continued: “My emotions led me to making a wrong decision, which in this case, was sharing the experience on social media.”
The Key Look business owner worked at a wedding in New York,USA,in early September, where she and her team did hair and makeup for the bride and her bridesmaids.
Keziah has since admitted she misjudged the situation
In a series of since-deleted TikToks, which have been shared onX(formerly known as Twitter), Keziah tearfully described the event as being “so f**ked up.”
At the time, the makeup artist shared: “I was so excited for the content we would get for her so I kept filming. I also wanted some BTS to share with our social media.”
Keziah added that the bride said she was going to hire a content creator for her wedding, so she “made the decision” to stay there the entire day and film, as perThe Mail.
She said: “I was going full makeup and full-on content y’all. I had everyone laughing all morning. There was literally not a [dull] moment all day.”
An assistant planner then reportedly informed Keziah that the couple wanted her to leave, which left the makeup artist confused and emotional. Despite the bride’s apology, she described the situation as “crazy” and “disrespectful.”
The incident sparked widespread debate about professionalism and boundaries for wedding vendors
According to reposts of the original TikTok, Keziah sobbed in her car after the wedding, saying she had “never” been kicked out of an event before, as perThe Mail.
A slew of people slammed Keziah, with one comment—reportedly from a bridesmaid—on the original video reading: “So, again, this is INSANE.
A TikTok user noted: “The bride is actually my sister. Shame on you for even posting this. If you need to cope don’t use someone else’s wedding to do so.”
A person wrote: “Oh god, those were so hard to watch like SHE CRIED TO THE BRIDE!!!! She’s a stranger to them.”
Someone else penned: “As a makeup artist/hairstylist, I’ll stay for some getting ready photos for the bride and then I’m out.
“I might stay to help put in a veil after she is in her dress but again I leave right after.”

“She’s not good at reading social cues,” a netizen argued. “I doubt anyone explicitly told her ‘stay.’ Instead, they were nice about her presence and she interpreted it as everyone having a great time with her.”
In aSubreddit, a separate individual chimed in: “This is the most jaw-dropping story I’ve heard in a while.”
On October 18, Keziah took to her business’s officialFacebook pageto share an update, stating: “Regardless of anything that has been said on the internet about my team and I, REAL brides have had REAL amazing experiences with our team.”
“As the owner, me, Keziah, I’ve poured my heart and soul into this team and if you’ve ever experienced me on a personal or professional level, you know that.
“Our team is looking forward to continuing to service bridal parties the rest of this year, 2025, and so on. Thank you to everyone who supports and love our team. We love y’all too.”
“She also comes off really entitled,” a reader commented
