Hi, I’m Stacia I’ve been styling brides hair in Iowa since 2010 while I was still in school. I spent hours perfecting the bride’s look, and as I watched everything come together, I realized how much I loved the energy of weddings. The way hair can transform a person and complete their entire bridal look—there was something magical about it. Hair comes in all shapes, sizes, and textures, and I see it as a blank canvas to create a style that’s as unique as you are. Whether you want timeless elegance, romantic waves, or a soft boho vibe, I’ll bring your vision to life with care and attention to detail.

Bespoke Beauty LLC provided excellent communication throughout the entire wedding planning process. They were always there to answer any questions I had, no matter how big or small. Stacia, the lead stylist, did an incredible job with my hair as well as the hair of my 6-year-old daughter, both mothers, and my siblings. Bespoke Beauty LLC was a true problem solver, working hard and efficiently to ensure we all looked and felt our absolute best on the big day. I highly recommend their services to any couple planning their wedding.

Marissa Williams Bridal Hairstylist

I am a Bridal Hair Stylist based out of West Des Moines! Styling hair is my passion along with everything that comes with being a Bridal Hairstylist. The busy mornings, laughter among friends/family, traveling to different venues- I love it all!

Awarded Best of Zola
Marissa was fantastic!! She was so easy to work with, flexible, and friendly. I have naturally wavy and frizzy hair, but she gave me a frizz free look without making my hair crunchy or stiff from product. My half up-do was super comfortable and stayed all night with no issues, even after taking my cathedral length veil out. She added a great vibe to the room getting ready and I knew from my trial that I didn’t need to worry about hair at all. Everyone else loved her work as well, she was super knowledgeable and confident in whipping up hairstyles the day of for the bridesmaids and my mom. She even worked with my maid of honor’s natural curls to touch them up and add a little style. Couldn’t recommend her more!

Oasis Salon & Spa

Monticello, IA
  • Starts at $70
  • Serves Iowa

We share Aveda’s exceptional standards of quality products, treatments, and guest care, and everything we do reflects the standards of an Aveda salon.

Oasis Salon & Spa was the hair and makeup vendor for my wedding this past August. The girls we ended up working with were great; super friendly and everyone was happy with their hair and makeup the day of. They worked with me to figure out my makeup look as I was struggling to figure out what I wanted. I had 2 trials where they walked me through different ideas and modified the day of as well. The airbrush makeup was also great on the hot August day and held up the whole day! The reason I didn't give 5 stars was when figuring out the details of the day, I was told we would receive 2 hair stylists and 2 makeup artists to be able to get through the amount of services we needed in the timeframe we outlined with our DOC. I even booked them 11 months in advance. Unfortunately when we showed up to the venue that morning, there was only 1 hair stylist and 2 makeup artists. While the hair stylist worked as fast as she could, it still put us 20-30 minutes behind schedule and didn't allow time for her to show me how to put my veil underneath my updo. Because of this, we were behind schedule for pictures and I wasn't able to wear my veil the way we had discussed. I wish they had been up front on capacity or communicated the change in number of hair stylists assigned to our wedding. The ability to get 10 hair and 10 makeups done in 4 hours was the main reason I choose Oasis.
