Awarded Best of Zola
Palla Beauty was an absolute DELIGHT to work with for my wedding weekend (Saturday and Sunday!) beauty needs. From the moment I first spoke with Nicole, her communication style was effortlessly direct and collected - she made me feel heard about my wants and also offered incredible suggestions to elevate my look. Nicole was very clear about planning and timing (as any incredible wedding vendor should be!), but also had an open ear for understanding my preferences and adjusting my makeup and hairstyle accordingly. She is so incredibly skilled with her makeup and hair brushes and the makeup and truly made me feel so beautiful! The extensions she gave me for my Sunday look lasted through dancing and snow and so much jumping!! Nicole also worked on makeup with my mom, who can sometimes be a tough customer (but Nicole handled it with ease!) and TOTALLY EXCEEDED my mother’s expectations (particularly because she is new to makeup!). On my wedding day, Nicole made me feel like a princess - I felt so confident, and the makeup and hairstyle lasted flawlessly through tears, winter weather, and heavy dancing. Nicole was so adaptable to my changing energy levels and needs, so easy to talk to, and a gem to work with. I feel really lucky that I was able to find someone who was so skilled with makeup and also was able to really elevate my hair and make it exactly what I always dreamed of for my wedding!!! I can't recommend Palla Beauty highly enough!

RIE Makeup & Hair 
Rating: 5.0 (41 reviews)
  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 5
  • Starts at $550
  • Serves Great River, NY

Rie is a NYC/Long Island based makeup artist/hair stylist for Beauty, Fashion, Portrait Photography, and Weddings. ​ All the makeup products in Rie's kit are cruelty free. Rie's style is "Natural" and "Feel like yourself but better" makeup look!

Awarded Best of Zola
Rie was a lifesaver! I had initially reached out to a different vendor in September of 2024 and we had an ongoing conversation while I considered pricing through November. We had a verbal agreement to work together but before she sent me her contract she ghosted me. I thought it was because the holidays were coming up and we all get busy at the end of the year. But mid-January come along, I had not heard back, and I was a little over two months away from my wedding! I reached out to a ton of makeup artists, and Rie was among the first to respond. She was so understanding from the get-go and her kindness paired with her makeup style was what sold me! Immediately, I knew she was who I wanted to work for. Rie provided makeup services for me and five of my six bridesmaids by herself. She was even able to work with me to find time to do a makeup trial despite both our busy schedules (getting married in the off season I'm sure helped). She worked so efficiently and even finished before our scheduled time, and provided us all with little touch up kits. I tend to not wear too much makeup and the same goes for most of my bridesmaids, and Rie was able to take her "natural makeup" style and personalize it to everyone. I only wear makeup on special occasions, and when I do, I tend to be hyper aware of my face and the makeup on it. But Rie's application was so good, that I did not think about the makeup on my face once throughout the ten hour day. The natural makeup style might not be for everyone, the same way full glam is not for me, but if you lean that way, I highly recommend working with Rie!

Our MC Billy and DJ Angelo were amazing at reading the room and keeping the party going, even in a thunderstorm. There was not a single moment where the guests stopped dancing even as equipment was moved from the tent to the indoor reception. The MC reviewed all details with us the day of and made sure we didn’t have any changes or additions. They had an amazing planning form on their website for song requests to create our own music for each portion of the wedding. High Voltage also works closely with Swan Lake and Capture the Moment, so we felt at ease that everyone was working together as a unit at all times. We got so many compliments from our guests on the music and the vibes the whole night were incredible.

When working on wedding planning, we knew right away that we wanted to use nectar& bloom for our florals. We wanted something fun, unique, and just not what you always see at most weddings in our area. Lisa and Ann Marie were amazing in their communication and breakdowns of what could work with our budget and venue space, and were very adaptable and helpful as changes came along the way! We had high expectations coming into our wedding day, but they were absolutely blown out of the park once we saw everything come to life! From my bridal bouquet to the AMAZING floral arch and centerpieces, we were absolutely thrilled with how bright, colorful, fun, and unique our florals were. Our guests are still raving about the flowers that we had, and I even sent out our flowers to be preserved so that I have this amazing piece of our day treasured forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! We hired AMP DJ/BAND HYBRID for our wedding and they were one of the best decisions we made. From the start, they were so easy to communicate with, incredibly professional, and genuinely attentive to our family’s needs. They even added last-minute band members with total ease, no stress, just smooth execution. We wanted a big party vibe, and that is exactly what we got. The vocals were phenomenal, the musicianship was outstanding, and the energy they brought was unreal. The perfect blend of music kept the dance floor packed all night, and the band read the room effortlessly. They were also so open to our personal touches, like my dream of having a big group sing-along, and they embraced it with enthusiasm. At the end of the night, they were even flexible and kind enough to stay for one last song, making the finale feel absolutely magical. One of our favorite parts was how interactive the performers were. The saxophonist, trumpet player, and lead singers came out onto the dance floor, mingled with guests, and encouraged everyone to get up and celebrate. It made the whole night feel electric and personal. A special highlight was how graciously they welcomed a performance from one of our wedding guests, seamlessly bringing them into the band and turning it into a moment we’ll never forget. If you want a team that is exceptionally talented, energetic, flexible, and dedicated to creating an unforgettable celebration, AMP DJ/BAND HYBRID is the ONLY choice. We cannot recommend them enough!

So I was looking for a photographer to do my 35th birthday photoshoot. My birthday was in August and I was looking for someone from May. I couldn't find anyone that was in the price range I was looking for. I didn't know photoshoot was so expensive. Anyhow I decided I wasn't gonna do it again since I can't find a reasonable priced photographer. One of my co worker at the time was getting married and she was telling me about her phoyoshoot for her engagement and how the guy was reasonable and professional and so on. So I asked her for his contact and so on. I messaged him and he gave me his packages and they were the most reasonable since my search. I decided to take a chance with him after seeing the work he did for my co worker and trust me I didn't regret it. Julian was patient and passionate about his craft. My package was 25 pictures and Julian took over 200 pictures. I had fun. After the shoot he sent all the pictures for me to choose the ones I want edited which I couldn't choose just 25 because they were all so good. So I told him I can't choose that small amount . I asked him if I could choose more and he gave me a discount. He said sure. Then I choose about 30 then he said he won't charge me extra he will just give me as a birthday gift. My pictures were clean and eye dazzling. I love them all. Julian went above and beyond for all the small details I wanted to add to my pictures as well. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing photographer. And I would personally use him again. One of my best photoshoot yet.

First of all, I have to say Milysa is the best makeup artist I have come across over the years and I’m happy I chose her to do my bridal makeup and for my bridal party. I originally booked a bridal trial with her (through word of mouth) after a couple other artists and after my trial, I knew I had to book her to do the makeup for my Wedding! She was so sweet, highly adaptable, extremely knowledgeable about which products and colors would suit me best for my face, eye shape and skin type. She created a timeline and guided me through the whole process since I had the trial up until my Wedding day and helped calm my bride-to-be nerves. The day of the Wedding, she was punctual and made sure everything flowed smoothly. My makeup looked even better from when I last had my trial with her, if that could even be possible! All of my bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law looked absolutely beautiful as well and I feel like I couldn’t have chosen a better makeup artist for my vision. Thank you so so much to Milysa at Minx Aesthetics, for doing what you clearly do best and making me & my bridal party look amazing for my forever pictures. My ladies and all of my guests absolutely loved her work! The makeup even lasted through hours of dancing and sweating haha. I only had to touch up once, which she provided a cute touch-up kit for me & my bridal party as well. (Mainly lips but that’s to be expected when eating and drinking haha!) If you need a talented, professional makeup artist for your Wedding and even your engagement party/shower or whichever special event, I highly recommend her to everyone! I will definitely be booking her for future events!

We started to follow SLK Visuals works on Instagram over a year ago, we were stunned by the photos and clips that he posted on his page. We decided to hire him right away. Shawn was very professional, very informative, he listened to what we have to say and want and he followed our vision to a tee. From the get go, Shawn scheduled appointments to introduce himself and who would be working with him; he showed us his work; he is very knowledgeable about his craft. He made us feel very comfortable and we were at ease with nothing to worry on our wedding day. Starting with our engagement photoshoot, the pictures were spectacular; we had filmed a short video that introduced our love story , that was also amazing, and even though it was raining that day this video reflects Shawn's creativity, he really captured us, our goofiness, our happiness and all. This experience was actually really wonderful and intimate, and I actually felt closer and more connected to my hubby than before. And when it comes to the wedding pictures, Shawn and the videographer were punctual and ready day of the wedding; all the photos come out amazingly beautiful, my video is clear and focused. Our wedding was this last October and 2 days later he sent us a teaser and by the end of November we had received the complete gallery. And also, I would like to mention that SLK Visuals is very affordable, compared to other vendors; Shawn works with your budget and gives you what you ask for. I am 1000% satisfied, I will definitely use him again and would Highly recommend his services.

We had the absolute best experience with our photo booth vendor at our 4th of July wedding! From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive during the planning process and made us feel completely at ease. On the big day, the team was fun, professional, and so easy to work with. The setup looked amazing, the props were a huge hit, and every single photo turned out fantastic. Our guests couldn’t get enough — it added such a fun and memorable touch to the night. Thank you for helping make our wedding so unforgettable! Highly recommend!
