I cannot say enough wonderful things about SammiiglamVT! Sammantha did my makeup for my wedding in October of 2024, as well as for the mother of the bride and mother of the groom, and she absolutely nailed it. From the very beginning, Sammantha was incredibly professional and responsive in her communications, making the planning process stress-free. On the big day, she was prompt, friendly, and brought such a calming energy that we all appreciated. One thing that stood out was her attention to detail. We had done our originial trial in April, but I had a spray tan just two days prior to the wedding, and she expertly adjusted the colors for my wedding day to ensure everything was perfectly matched with my new skin tone. She walked me through every step of what she was doing, which made me feel completely at ease and confident in her work. She even had a few recommendations, that I quickly took her up on based on her years of experience. The results were stunning—our makeup looked flawless and lasted all day, through tears, photos, and dancing. She has an incredible ability to enhance natural beauty while making you feel glamorous and confident. If you’re looking for a professional, talented, and personable makeup artist, I highly recommend SammiiglamVT. She truly made my wedding day extra special! photos by Eaton Photo

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsey! I’ve been getting my hair cut by her since 2014, so choosing her for my wedding day was the easiest decision. She completely understood the look I was going for and brought it to life so beautifully. Kelsey was incredibly easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. On the wedding day, she worked quickly and flawlessly, completing hair for 10 ladies—each style looking gorgeous and perfectly polished. She even stepped in to style my husband’s hair right before our first look to make sure he looked his best, which we both truly appreciated. Kelsey brought such a fun, calm, and positive energy to our morning. She made getting ready feel effortless, and having her there was such a joy. I would absolutely recommend her to any bride looking for someone talented, reliable, and genuinely wonderful to work with!

She brought multiple options based on my likes day-of and created a beautiful look that was everything I’d hoped for. I don’t wear makeup often and I’m not great at describing the makeup styles I like, but Tayla listened and explained my choices very kindly and professionally, and the result was completely perfect.

With Halloween and special effects being my passion I didn’t anticipate ending up in bridal, but I absolutely love it! I carry some of those tools and tricks along with me to elevate your look for your special day.

From the very beginning Liz was extremely responsive and accommodating. She listened to all my wants and needs and the wedding day makeup came out so perfect! I am someone who doesn’t wear a lot of make up to begin with, Liz was able to make me glow and give me lashes that still kept me looking natural. One of my bridesmaids was upset with her makeup look and Liz took the time to communicate with her what the issue was and go in and fix it. Even with our limited time frame she kept the flow going! I had Liz stay for touchups leading to the ceremony and I felt like a celebrity. Throughout photos she was able to touch up anything that needed to fixed to ensure I looked flawless. I totally recommend Liz for your wedding day!

From soft, romantic styles to full glam, we tailor every detail to enhance your natural beauty and match your wedding vision.

Whether you’re planning an intimate celebration or a full bridal party glam session, Blush is dedicated to making you feel confident, radiant, and completely taken care of.

The team at Blush was absolutely amazing for our wedding at Mountain Top Resort! From our very first communication, they were professional, highly organized, and incredibly easy to work with. On the morning of the wedding, they came directly to our getting-ready suite at the resort. Eliminating the need to travel to a salon made our morning feel so relaxed, seamless, and entirely stress-free. The artists arrived early, set up efficiently, and were incredibly punctual with their timeline. They did a phenomenal job on hair and makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, our flower girl, and my mother in law. What impressed me most was how attentive they were to everyone's individual preferences. They listened carefully to what each person wanted, tailored the looks perfectly, and made sure everyone felt confident and beautiful. Everyone looked absolutely stunning, and the quality of their work speaks for itself. Our hair and makeup held up flawlessly all day and night—which was no small feat, considering that we actually experienced a surprise bout of hail during our outdoor ceremony, followed by hours of dancing on a completely packed dance floor at the reception. Despite the wild weather and the sweat from dancing, not a single curl fell out of place, and our makeup stayed totally fresh without needing touch-ups. If you want a professional, talented, and reliable glam team for your big day, I highly recommend Blush!

Melissa was my hair and makeup stylist for my October 2025 wedding, and I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about her. From the moment she arrived, she brought such calm, positive energy—it felt like having one of my closest friends by my side. She’s so easy to talk to and truly made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself. Melissa went above and beyond in every possible way. She didn’t just make sure my hair and makeup were perfect—she helped me into the car while it was raining, fluffed my dress train right before I walked down the aisle, and even took my furbaby for a quick walk before she left so we didn’t have to worry. Those thoughtful little things meant so much to me and my family. My mom and grandma couldn’t stop raving about how lovely she was! Having Melissa there on my wedding day was such a blessing. She’s professional, kind, and genuinely cares about her brides—it shows in everything she does. I’ll absolutely be hiring her again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will make you look and feel amazing inside and out. One more tip: Definitely do a bridal trial with her! I loved my look at the trial, but somehow on the wedding day she made me feel even more stunning. She’s truly the best.

Amber and Kristy did a great job on the makeup and hair for myself and my bridesmaids, and makeup for my mom. They were fun, friendly, and informative, and everyone looked beautiful. They listened to my feedback from my trial, and everything came out even better on the day. I felt so beautiful all day, and never worried once about my hair or makeup staying in place, even through SO many tears (even when the wind decided to take my veil, it popped easily back into place)! And everything was so comfortable for how durable it proved to be - no drying products or pulling on my hair. Amber and Kristy's work is a great value, and they fit right in with my bridal party, making the start to the day that much more fun. My only critique was the timeline - I was working without a coordinator, so I trusted the professionals to lay out a timeline that they were comfortable with. Ultimately it just wasn't enough time, and despite my mother-in-law dropping out of the lineup (for unrelated reasons), my makeup still finished late. I understand this stuff happens, but I felt like the only one concerned about continuing to fall behind, and we would have had no issue getting started earlier if asked. So I would recommend some buffer in your timeline, particularly if you are DIYing it, but they did a great job!
