About
Summer & Co. Bridal
Makeup By Summer was established in 2013 by Summer Miller. She decided to expand her business and launched her team, Summer & Co. Bridal, in 2022 because she saw a need for bridal beauty companies that offer BOTH makeup and hair. This can easily take a lot of added stress off of a bride. Our team is made up of a group of highly skilled and licensed makeup and hair professionals. Our main goal is to make all of our brides and clients feel comfortable and like themselves after we service them on their most special day!

Hi, I’m Summer! I am an award-winning makeup artist and am also 5-star rated on Wedding Wire. I’ve been in the makeup biz for quite a while now. I got my start by assisting a very well-known and reputable makeup artist, Danelle French, for over a year. I also gained a lot of product knowledge from working at Sephora. After having my fair share of skin issues, I was inspired to attend Aveda Fredric’s Institute to earn my esthetician license. I am a firm believer that to feel comfortable wearing makeup, you need to feel confident in your skin! Not only do I enjoy doing makeup on all of my beautiful brides and clients, but I also love to educate them on products and skincare! I’m always open to questions and ideas throughout your service.
My main focus is my bridal business but I also have years of experience in the editorial and production world! Some of my clients have included: The Sean Hannity Show for Fox News, MoneyLion, FinishLine, Mandolin, and many more. Additionally, I volunteered my makeup services for Indiana Fashion Week in 2019 and 2021. I also humbly pride myself on having my editorial work featured twice in Vogue Italia online.
For my brides, I want to make every one of their bridal makeup experiences custom to who they are. But most importantly, my passion for this industry comes from getting to know each and every one of my clients and making them feel beautiful! I love to laugh and chat with my clients, especially my brides to make them feel more relaxed on their big day. My clients often describe me as sweet, compassionate, thoughtful, intuitive, organized, and prompt.
Some of my favorite things (besides playing in makeup all day) include: Spending time with my husband and son, hanging out with friends and family, playing with my dogs, playing Euchre (I became obsessed during the beginning of COVID days), binge-watching, Starbucks, and laughing!
I really hope to get to know your beautiful face!

Shelby
Lead Hair Stylist
Shelby
Hi! My name is Shelby Chaplin. I am 23 years old and live on the south side of Indy with my boyfriend, Jordan, and our dog Blu. I am in my fourth year as a professional in the beauty industry specializing in blonding and dimensional color. When I’m not behind the chair, I love expressing myself through bridal hair and makeup!

Alexa
Hi, I’m Alexa! I’ve been a stylist for quite some time now, and continue to love learning about the ever-changing trends and techniques in the beauty industry. During the week you can find me behind the chair in my salon in Downtown Indianapolis. Bridal hair brings me a different level of creative inspiration and is so humbling getting to be a part of such a special day. My priority is making sure my clients feel beautiful and at ease, and that your bridal morning is light & fun! Some of the things I enjoy outside of hair include: running, reading, my husky (Mila), coffee, watching sports, and spending time with my family.

Rikki
Lead Hair Stylist
Rikki
Just a small town girl that moved to a big town. Rikki Wydra started styling hair at the young age of five years old. At that time, she was already using a curling iron on her bangs. Hair was a medium that let her be creative. Once getting her cosmetology license in 2003, she knew she wanted to do bridal hair. She has a larger than life personality and energy that vibes amazing with a bridal party.
What makes Rikki’s hair styles unique is that she uses trends of both the past and present in addition to adding her own creative twist on it all. One of her memories from beauty school was when an instructor taught them an old fashioned French twist. It was something that at the time most people no longer knew how to do. Some of her favorite updos involve braids or faux braids. This means no matter the age of the client, she surely has something that will appeal to them. She can do the most recent trends all the way to grandma who needs a teased set.
Rikki possesses a level of both knowledge and professionalism that will help any bride’s big day go smoothly. “I want to be known for my talent and professionalism. I feel like those are key to what a bride needs from any vendor on her big day.” Those ideals form the backbone of her hair service. That combined with her flexibility and ability to tackle stress head on make her more than just a hair stylist.
