About

Painted by Anie is run by Stephanie Ruggiero, a mobile makeup artist known to clients as Anie. Nothing is done at a fixed studio: every booking happens where the client is, whether that is a home, a hotel, a rental, a venue, or, in Lakewood Ranch, a family home or a room at the golf club. Bridal work is the center of the business, though event and bridal party bookings are also taken.

Service covers Sarasota, Bradenton, Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key, Lido Key, St. Armands, Siesta Key, Venice and Lakewood Ranch. The greater Tampa Bay area, including Tampa and St. Petersburg, is served by arrangement. Appointments run seven days a week from 7 AM to 10 PM, and starts before 7 AM carry a $50 fee. For travel measured from Downtown Sarasota, the first 5 miles are included, and each mile after that costs $2 one way, rounded up to the whole mile. Trips beyond 80 miles are quoted individually.

Bridal Makeup is $250 and includes a personalized beauty guide with prep recommendations, long-wear application, luxury lashes and a touch-up kit. Bridal Hair starts at $200, with more elaborate styles quoted after the stylist has seen the look, and Bridal Hair + Makeup starts at $450. The Signature Bridal Experience is $850 and covers wedding-day hair and makeup, both previews, a consultation, a beauty guide, a customized wedding-morning timeline, luxury lashes, a touch-up kit and veil placement. The timeline is built with the client beforehand, working back from the ceremony with the bride finished last.

A signed service agreement is required to book. A non-refundable deposit secures the date and equals 40% of the services subtotal, or 30% once that subtotal reaches $850; half of any travel fee is collected at the same time. Cancelling a booking forfeits the deposit, while a travel deposit is refunded if travel has not started. Rescheduling is allowed but requires a new contract. Parking, tolls and venue access fees, where they apply, are charged to the client, who also provides a clean, well-lit workspace. Inquiries are answered within 24 to 48 hours.

Reviews on the site describe the team as attentive to small details and composed on the day, and say the hair and makeup last through the event.

Makeup begins with skin preparation and uses long-wear, humidity-resistant products and application methods suited to Florida weather, and the same approach is used on every booking.
