Awarded Best of Zola
The team at The Stately Rose Beauty Studio was an absolute dream. From our very first interaction, the owner was clear on what to expect while being very personable. Their work was professional, creative, and attentive - the hair (for me) and makeup they did for me and my bridesmaids was stunning and lasted all day long. The morning with the Stately Rose team was so fun and stress-free, which was exactly what I needed. We had a few bridesmaids come unprepared and it was no problem for them. I couldn't have asked for a better beauty experience, and I highly recommend them.

Lauren was fantastic! She arrived early in the morning for my wedding day makeup for 6 bridesmaids, my mom and myself. I couldn't be any happier with my results, especially considering I live out of the area and we did not have time for a trial prior to the wedding day. I couldn't recommend her enough!

Kara did my hair and makeup for my wedding this past September and she did such an incredible job. After our first phone call, we did a trial run a few months prior to the wedding. Even though I was already very confident in her work from seeing her work on social media, the trial really just solidified everything. She listened to what my vision on how I wanted to look for the wedding, weighed in professional opinions, and absolutely nailed everything at the trial. She gives great recommendations for skin care prep for the big day and gave great details for whatever is needed. she was so very helpful! We tweeked some minor things on the wedding day that we both mutually agreed on and the finished look was *chefs kiss*. I truly felt the most beautiful on that day and its all thanks to Kara and her amazing skills. I also had 9 bridesmaids (small number - I know). So Daniela, Kelly, and Laura were also part of the day to help out and they also did such an amazingly beautiful job!!!!!

I recently got married on 6/1/24 & let me tell you, I am SO happy I found Annaliese & Co. for my big day. Specifically, Frann! Frann did my wedding day hair & did such a beautiful job. I have super thick, yet fine hair, so it can be difficult to work with sometimes & my hair stayed ALL NIGHT! From 10am until 1am - my hair didn’t move. All my bridesmaids loved their hair as well! We had a big bridal party (myself, 8 bridesmaids, 2 moms) & Frann and her partner were so efficient & quick! We had plenty of time for touch-ups & she spent a generous amount of time perfecting my hair. Not only is Frann very professional & super talented but she is such a sweet & funny person! She listened to everything I wanted for my wedding day hair & answered all questions during my trial. For your wedding day you want to hire someone that is not only good at their job but brings positive & fun vibes and Frann did exactly that. I’m so so blessed to have had Frann for my wedding day - she’s absolutely wonderful & was such a crucial part of my big day! :)

I booked Justine for our wedding in September to do hair and makeup on myself and both of our moms. Everyone’s hair & makeup came out beautifully & stayed soo well throughout the day and night. I had a partial updo with curls that were intact the whole time!! We loved the enhanced natural looks Justine gave us as none of us wear makeup that often. Justine’s calming presence was so nice and eased all of our jitters. Everyone kept saying how relaxing and peaceful the whole experience was getting ready. She was very accommodating for my mom as she is in a wheelchair and sewed my mom’s dress. Since starting to speak with her to book she was punctual, professional & kind. She eased my anxious mind when I was worried about my hair being too short when all curled. If I could do it all again I’d re-book her every time! Can’t thank her enough and make any higher recommendations for future brides to book Justine for their weddings!!

Meghan was an actual blessing on our wedding. We got married in Maine and I had previously found someone more local to do my hair. To say that initial test with the other person was disappointing would be a gross understatement. I have very thin hair and as such bought extensions. The other person said she couldn't use all of them, and the ones she did use pulled on my hair and scalp in such a painful way that I couldn't wear them for more than an hour or so and the style looked thin and fried. Enter Meghan. Given the exact same tools and accessories she worked actual magic. She gave me wedding hair better than I ever could've imagined or dreamed of. I asked for wild and witchy and romantic and she delivered tenfold. It was so comfortable and long-lasting and I got nothing but compliments on it and she did such a good job integrating the extensions that no one believed it wasn't my real hair. She gave recommendations for which extensions to get and what products to use to prep my hair and was all around amazing. She even helped my groom with his hair last minute on the day of and he looked fabulous too. Meghan was such a joy to be around and was so sweet and kind and helpful and talented that I wish I could get married again just to use her. She's a gem and I will recommend her to anyone who asks and everyone who doesn't ask.

I am jumping into my 10th bridal season as a makeup artist and am more passionate about it than ever before! Specializing in glowy, soft glam makeup looks! Also offering pre wedding skin prep, brows & lash services at my studio in Wayland, MA!

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!

I had a vision for my wedding day to accentuate my long hair – soft, glamorous waves similar to an Old Hollywood look. If this is the look you're going for as well, you likely quickly discovered that this is a much more difficult look to achieve than you think. Better yet, most of the professionals who have perfected their technique charge well over 500 (one even quoted me 900) for the wedding day look and that didn't include a trial. I am all for paying vendors what they deserve for their skills and talent, but it felt so unattainable. But beyond that, these stylists booked up far too quick to even get on their books. Some others I was able to get trials with simply didn't have the skill to achieve the soft Hollywood style. I went to Coven for a haircut and met Alexis and ironically struck up a conversation about my wedding. She was inquiring about what kind of look I was going for and we ended up booking a trial for glam waves. When I say I was beyond surprised and overjoyed leaving my trial – and the wedding day?! I could not say enough amazing things about Lex. She even washed and styled my hair before my rehearsal dinner the day prior to the wedding (separate cost) so the amount of product in my hair was exactly what we wanted to work with on the wedding morning. She is the kindest, most professional soul with the talent to match. And as it is a very important factor in the process of wedding planning, the pricing is reasonable and attainable. The amount of compliments I get on my hair to this day anytime someone sees a wedding photo, and I will forever recommend Alexis and her team at Coven!! Don't hesitate to reach out and book for your big day – you won't be disappointed. Note: I did my trial in the salon and Alexis assistant came to us on the wedding day.

  • Serves Riverside, CT

I have loved doing makeup since I was in middle school, always an artist and creative and when I discovered makeup it seemed The world aligned. My passion for people and sharing experiences with my clients and my love for makeup makes this my favorite thing I’ve ever done. My relationships with my clients is my favorite part.

Essie was my makeup artist for my June 22, 2024 wedding, and I simply cannot recommend her enough. She is thoughtful, kind, and incredibly professional with her brides. Though she has done hundreds (or maybe even thousands?) of weddings, she took the time to personalize my look for ME, and to encourage me to be honest if I wanted any tweaks. Her energy is so calm and positive- the exact thing you need in a hectic bridal suite. She worked FAST and even kept us ahead of schedule- which I believe is unheard of for the wedding day! Her assistant Riley made skin prep a total dream, and many of my bridesmaids said it was the best professional makeup they've ever received. However, Essie became more than a makeup artist throughout my planning process. When our photographer needed to cancel, she saw my post in a bridal FB group and immediately texted me to send about 25 photography recs- following up to be sure I'd found someone. When I posted in that same group asking for help finding a sponsor for our country club venue, Essie jumped in to help. She went WAY above and beyond what a vendor does for a client, and instead acted as a genuine friend. It's hard to fully put into words how wonderful she is, but booking with Essie is a no-brainer.

I'm so happy I went with April and her team for my wedding day hair and makeup. April was so patient with me while I chose the best hairstyle to complete my look. She really listened closely to my vision, and offered helpful suggestions to bring my look to life. Despite some uncooperative weather on the day, April nailed the style I was looking for and my hair stayed perfectly in place throughout the entire day! Her team did a great job with my bridesmaids needs as well. Her team offers a wide range of expertise and style. I would highly recommend them to any future brides.

Ruby was amazing at helping coordinate with Gaby for my hair and makeup trial as well as day of. They are both so incredibly sweet and professional. It was amazing having Gaby on-site on my special day. They were very accommodating of last minute changes. My makeup was flawless and lasted all day (and even the next day!). We had a little more trouble with my hair in the back, it fell flat a little earlier than I would have hoped, but could've been accelerated because of the weather (face framing lasted all night and that's what really matters). The makeup and hair on mother of the bride and mother of the groom was absolutely beautiful. I would recommend Brushed!

Welcome to our Bridal and Special Event Hair and Makeup services! We specialize in creating stunning looks that enhance your beauty for your most occasions. Our talented team is dedicated to providing a personalized, ensuring you feel confident and radiant on your special day. Let us help you shine!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about my hair and makeup experience for my wedding day! From start to finish, my artist was extremely professional and punctual, arriving early to set up and ready to go. She put me at ease, especially as I was nervous about looking too overdone. She truly listened to what I wanted and perfected my look exactly as I had imagined. Her advice and creative ideas for both my hair and makeup were spot-on and elevated my final look. The quality was exceptional as my hair lasted all day and night without a single strand out of place, and my makeup didn’t budge despite all the emotions and dancing. She also kept the vibe lighthearted, which was a lifesaver for my nerves! A standout moment for me was when she handed me the mirror after finishing my makeup. I teared up seeing myself because it was the first time I truly felt like a bride. She didn’t just apply makeup, she brought out the best version of me. Despite my wedding being thrown together quickly (and during the Holidays) due to an upcoming move, her communication was seamless and stress-free. She brought all her equipment, had me done earlier than expected, and left the space spotless. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for professionalism, skill, and someone who genuinely cares about making your day perfect!
