Wedding Make-up

I have been trying to finalize all of my vendors or people that I have to "book" prior to the wedding. This weekend I was on the prowl for a make-up artist. I have had trouble finding one and none of the local wedding magazines seem to have any listings. So, I went to Nordstrom's and made an appointment with clinique.


It was pretty terrible. I think the person might have used coal instead of eyeliner. (just kidding, but it was very thick & I wasn't going for a goth look on my wedding day). Does anyone have any tips on finding make-up artists? I really want to have a professional do my make-up. Most of my friends, who are married, did their own make-up.
