Carleen and Taylor were the best wedding hair and make up team I could have asked for! Highly recommend them for your bridal beauty needs! From the first time I contacted Carleen about my wedding, she’s been amazing to work with. My first hair and make up trial with another vendor was a disaster, I was only in Connecticut for a few days to do a trial (I’m not from the area, but got married in CT), and emailed Carleen the night before Thanksgiving to see if she could squeeze me in before I returned home. She responded to me on Thanksgiving Day and scheduled me for a trial the very next day. I loved her work and booked her on the spot. Fast forward to the wedding day, my group of ladies had a lot of specific needs and requests, and Carleen and Taylor were more than accommodating. Our getting ready time went so smoothly, everyone was thrilled with how their hair and make up turned out, and as a bride I could not have felt more beautiful on the big day. My hair and make up was still beautiful when I woke up the next day! Thanks for everything, Carleen and Taylor!

Hi guys! I’m Lauren and I am the owner of LA Page Makeup. I’ve been providing makeup services to CT and New England for over 13 years and have found nothing lights up my world more than serving clients and giving them the confidence to shine! I have earned my beauty and theatrical makeup certificates, as well as certificates in lash lifting and tinting, brow lamination, and more. Continued education is so important to me! My favorite part of doing makeup is the look of awe my clients get when they look in the mirror. If I can help give you the confidence and self-love to shine, I’ve done my job right!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was so happy to have Lauren. not only do my own make up on my wedding day, but most of my bridesmaids as well. Lauren is the best of the best when it comes to running a business AND providing stellar makeup services. During my trial we talked about what I was looking for make up wise and made adjustments based on what looked best on me. I really respected her opinion as she knows what works on a person’s face based on their coloring, style and comfortability. I ended up going with an even softer look on my wedding day to match my bridesmaids and I’m so glad we could make that last minute decision because it worked out flawlessly. Between Lauren doing the make up and Jessica doing the hair, everyone involved looked stunning and both lasted all night long, which is no easy feat! I loved the little to-go supplies they provided me after they left because it definitely needed it for the occasional touch up. Overall, if you’re getting married in Connecticut, I highly recommend hiring LA Page Makeup to do the job. They were so easy to work with and communicative from start to finish!U

Meg's work speaks for itself - she is so talented at what she does! She was amazing to work with from the first time I reached out to her to the big day. I sent over some ideas prior to my hair trial and after sharing a picture of my dress, she helped me pick the perfect style to match it. It made the trail so easy and minimal changes had to be made to achieve the perfect look. On the big day, she was on time, professional, and so much fun to work with. My hair tends to get frizzy very easily when it's down (in this case half down), but she made sure it stayed looking amazing all night long, despite lots of dancing and even some rain in the evening. I cannot say enough good things about her! She's so talented and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I highly recommend her to everyone and anyone looking for a hairstylist for their wedding!

Hello beautiful people! My name is Jocelyn and I have been a makeup artist for over 8 years, pursuing this full time the last 3! I have loved makeup my entire life and my love has just grown as I have gotten older. Communication and trust with my clients is extremely important to me! I always make sure we have time to talk about exactly what kind of look you are looking for. I look forward to welcoming you to my chair!

Jocelyn was an absolute delight to work with for my wedding day makeup. Her communication style was speedy, personal, and energetic - she always responded quickly to any questions I had and made me feel like an individual, not just another client. The quality and value of her work was amazing. She didn't use a one-size-fits-all approach but really tailored the look to me. When she was done I truly felt beautiful, confident, and ready to walk down the aisle. On the day itself Jocelyn arrived right on time and came bearing a lovely gift, which was so thoughtful. She worked efficiently and professionally to make sure my makeup was perfect before zipping off to her next appointment. I couldn't recommend Jocelyn more highly for any bride looking for a talented, responsive, and thoughtful makeup artist for her special day!

I am a traveling freelance makeup artist. Makeup has been my passion for over 10 years and I have been doing makeup professionally for less than a year. Makeup has always helped me feel beautiful, confident, and radiant and it's such a pleasure to be able to do it for others!

Whether you want the more natural look, the sultry look, or the classic beauty look, Macy Lo is your girl and the makeup artist for you. Her fun attitude and dedication is impressive, her knowledge is extensive, she is a professional, and truly a delight to have around. She asks you what make up you usually wear, asks you for pinterest images of girls make up you like, makes you a better version of self both at the trial and the day of, and always checks in to see whether you like or dislike something or whether you want less or more. She truly gears her talents toward the individual. On the day of my wedding she came early, brought her extensive line of makeup, additional accessories, and with a smile and genuine joy and excitement on her face got to work. Macy did such a beautiful job for myself, my sister, step-mom, and my two bridesmaids at my wedding. We all felt like princesses. I was so lucky, grateful, and thankful for her. On my wedding day, I felt truly beautiful and blessed. Macy played a big part in that. I would work with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone I know. If only she could pop out of my makeup bag every day lol.

Hiring Pam and her team for my HMU services for my wedding was one of my best decisions!!! From the very beginning, she was quick to respond, professional, and so kind. At my hair and makeup trial she took my Inspo pics and ran with my vision. On the wedding day we made some slight tweaks and she absolutely nailed my soft glam summery look. I was (still am!) obsessed with my hair and makeup that day. I chose to have hair extensions and they looked so natural, as well. Pam was kind enough to send me recommendations for extensions, too! Pam provided a touch-up kit to use throughout the day but we didn’t even need it- our makeup lasted all night long (over 12 hours without any issues on an 85 July day). Everyone was so talented and really made all my favorite women look and feel their best. Besides their professional and expertise, the women made the morning of my wedding so much FUN! Pam and her team were on time, ahead of schedule, friendly, personable, and made the morning so calm and relaxing. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better crew to provide both glam and hype to the day! Hire them immediately- you won’t regret it! THANK YOU for making our wedding day so amazing!

Planning one of the most important moments in your life can be super stressful and even more exciting! As you take your first steps down the aisle and see your partner see you looking and feeling the most beautiful you ever have is so worth all the “stress”. Here is where it all comes together. My goal for every bride is to take as much of the stress away from you as I possibly can as you start your day. In addition to offering custom flawless hair and make up, I can travel to you! Home, hotel or yurt in the woods, all can be accommodated.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Justine and her team!!! From the first call to the trial run to the day of the wedding, Justine was the consummate professional—thorough, organized, and a generally calming and beautiful presence. She took the time to hear my vision and my worries (I don’t wear a lot of makeup normally so I was concerned about making sure I felt like myself) and at the practice run, she took the time to make sure I felt comfortable and beautiful before I left her chair. The day of the wedding, she and her team were right on time, and took care of my bridal party, mother, and mother in law quickly and beautifully! They helped my mother in law (who’s even more nervous about makeup than I am) feel relaxed and beautiful, and answered my mom’s very specific concerns with no issues. Everyone in my bridal party felt gorgeous, and so did I!! They brought a calming presence to what could have been a hectic morning, and everyone who was part of the getting ready process agreed that we couldn’t have had a better beauty team.

OUTSTANDING VENDOR! Doorbell Barbers was one of the best choices we made for our wedding day! Christian and his team made the morning of our wedding such a memorable and relaxing experience for my husband and his groomsmen. Everything from the consultation, follow ups, day of our wedding service, this business was ON-POINT! Very fast response times, professional, punctual (actually 60 minutes EARLY) and a GREAT value for what we received. My husband looked absolutely stunning for the wedding photos and the guys really loved the straight razor shaves, trims, bourbon, massage and gift bags! We choose the Royal Wedding Package as a groomsmen gift for all the guys and it was a huge hit! All of the products & groomsmen gifts were super high quality (we checked the pricing on the items and each bag had at least 200 worth of shaving gear/creams pp. in them) and the barbers did really clean/trendy cuts for the guys. We had never heard of anything like this before but honestly it’s a smart investment as all the guys looked expertly styled in our wedding photos. Doorbell Barbers offers a truly unique experience and exceeded our expectations on all fronts. Thank you again for making my husband so handsome for our big day.

She is beyond wonderful as a human, truly listens to you and sets real life expectations based on your dream vision, and also focuses so much on bringing out YOUR natural beauty, that I couldn't have ever seen myself with a different artist. Not only was the end result beyond stunning, it lasted for EVER without smudging or melting off well into the night (and when I tell you I was sweating and dancing my heart out, I mean it!). I'm typically a no-makeup gal myself, and the finished product did not look overdone or too heavy at all. She has perfected the art of makeup and beauty and I recommend her to literally everyone who's looking for an artist. She's made me feel more beautiful than I can ever put into words. By the end of your service with her, you'll have gained a friend. She is a one of a kind woman and a true artist!

Do yourself a favor and let Robyn work her hair magic for your wedding! Robyn was amazing during my wife and I's entire wedding. We talked beforehand about what I wanted for the big day. I think she usually does a trial run before weddings, but because I live across the country we had to skip that step. Even without the trial run, though, she pulled off exactly what I had pictured. Robyn managed to craft the elusive not too tight but holds all day hairstyle. I felt so great about my hair that day! On top of being an incredible hair artist, Robyn is truly an amazing human. You're going to want to invite her to your wedding as your best friend by the time your hair is done!

I've been in the hair industry for 7+years, I always knew I wanted to do hair. Making people feel like the best versions of themselves, and being there for your special day. I take pride in the relationships I build with my clients as well as the work I provide. I am willing to travel to your home, on-site venues, or even your hotel room!

Nicole had done my hair for my wedding last April and she exceeded my expectations! I had just moved to Massachusetts and was’t sure where to go to get my hair done on the biggest day of my life. Not to mention I have long thick curly hair. I sent her an inspo pic of an old Hollywood glam look and she knocked it out the park! I felt so beautiful the day of my wedding. The best part was that the hairstyle and curls lasted throughout the night and even the next day. I booked again for my second reception a couple weeks later. Luckily, she squeezed me into her busy schedule that week and had done another beautiful hair style on me. I had the best experience with Nicole! Her professionalism and experience in hair styling are excellent. I plan on booking with her again.

I am jumping into my 8th bridal season and am more passionate about it than ever before! Self-proclaimed selfie queen, instagram addict, social media connoisseur, skincare obsessor, pro chit chatter, youtube veteran, og beauty lover, and bridal magician.

I know it sounds crazy, but I may or may not have picked my wedding date based on Nikki and Rachel's schedule. Nikki did my makeup for a friend's wedding 2 years ago, and after feeling the most beautiful I'd ever felt in my life I knew I was going to book her when my time came around. The entire process with Nikki was easy, from my trial to the logistics and all in between. Her work speaks for itself. I can't even count the number of people who came up to me and told me my makeup was insanely gorgeous on my wedding day, and I felt that way too. The one aspect that I feel shouldn't be overlooked is the experience Nikki and my beauty time provided for me on that day. When I say down in the chair, it was the first time I started to get nervous and thought, "Oh my god, this is really happening," but sitting there with Nikki and chitchatting and giggling made my nerves go away. I was so sad when the getting ready part was over because I had so much fun hanging out with them LOL. Thank you, thank you, thank you Nikki for making me feel so insanely beautiful, and for being such a big part of my wedding day. My blast of a morning set the tone for the rest of the day!

With a passion for providing high-quality services and an obsession with Makeup since the age of 3, I’ve been involved in the beauty industry since 2007. My mission is to offer my brides everything they need to look and feel their best.

I absolutely adore the team at Abby Lauren! They are the most professional, kind, thoughtful, and talented group of artists in the business. Abby herself was not available on my wedding day, but she went above and beyond to communicate clearly and in a timely fashion to make sure her team would be ready for the big day! We still talk on Instagram now! I worked with Andrea for makeup and Bailey for hair. It was an absolute dream! It’s like getting your hair and makeup done by two close friends who bring out the absolute best in you! They were so fun to talk to and work with, but most importantly, they made my vision come to life and made me look above and beyond more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! They also did the hair and makeup of my twin sister, my mom, my mother-in-law, and my sister-in-law, and I cannot express enough how beautiful they all looked! Whether young or mature skin, long or short hair, Andrea and Bailey are so talented! Additionally, Emma did makeup and Lynn did hair for my bridesmaids. I cannot rave about them enough! My bridesmaids had different visions and styles for hair and makeup, and they all looked 10/10. Absolutely stunning! Thank you so much to the whole team at Abby Lauren. I love you all! I am so happy you were a part of my special day.

Growing up with New York City as my playground and with constant exposure to the city’s vibrant culture and style, I had been introduced early on to the concept of self-expression—ultimately using a comb to sculpt my creations. I am known for my effortless updos, and glamorous waves! I decided to create Fluff Me because as a new mom going to a salon was a mission. What better place to get a blowout other than the comfort of my own surroundings! We pride ourselves of consistency of quality styling and positive professional attitudes.

Fania and the team at Fluff Me were an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day hair. Their calm, professional, and friendly communication style put me at ease from the very start. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - they were so detail-oriented and meticulous, ensuring my hair looked neat and relaxing the entire time. Fania really made my wedding day hair everything I dreamed of! She was so attentive and went out of her way to make sure I looked absolutely perfect, even giving me touch-ups during photos to ensure my style remained flawless. I would definitely love to work with Fania and Fluff Me again and would highly recommend them to any bride who wants to feel like a queen on their special day!
