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

Kelsey has been cutting and coloring my hair for many years and it was a no brainer to ask her to do my hair for my wedding. Kelsey was professional and accommodating through the many challenges of being a 2020 bride. I’m not the type to do a lot with my hair so it was great to have someone so skilled do such a great job with minimal direction. Kelsey took the time to understand what I wanted and she nailed it! I would highly recommend Kelsey to any bride and am looking forward to her doing it all again in 2021!

Can I just start by saying that Alex was the most kind and attentive person and I have truly never felt more beautiful than the glam she did for me on my wedding day! She is a true artist, easy to talk to, and had such a calming presence (which honestly is huge on the wedding day when there is so much happening around you.) Alex and her assistant Gia were so easy to communicate with during all the coordination in the time leading up to wedding. All of my questions were answered promptly and Alex provides amazing guides to help you get ready in the months leading up! I was in a unique situation where I was traveling across the country for my wedding in MA and needed to do my trial the day before the wedding. She was incredibly accommodating, and even personalized my look to be a bit softer so I could wear it out to my rehearsal dinner. I sent her the inspiration ahead of time and she created the most beautiful look for me and even inspired me to start wearing lip liner! Alex did an incredible job and managed to glam me (27), my grandmother (72), my mother-in-law (53), and my step-mom, (54) all different ages, complexions, goals, skin types, and desires, and she absolutely delivered! The looks lasted all night long, photographed beautifully and I cannot thank Alex enough! Definitely book her!!!!

Ashlyn did a fantastic job with my elopement hair & makeup. She was open to trying different hair styles during the trial to see what I liked better. On elopement day she had no problem with trying something completely different. Both my hair and makeup lasted all day, 7AM- midnight. We were outside hiking in humid 80 degree weather and hair/makeup held up! Ashlyn showed up early and was right on schedule throughout the experience.

I did a destination elopement, so I didn’t have a chance to do a trial, but Tayla understood exactly what I wanted from my Pinterest board and a phone call/email. 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. She also made sure my makeup would stay on and look natural and balanced outside even with my wintertime runny nose. Can’t recommend her enough!

I’m Elizabeth! I grew up the official makeup, hair and styling guru to all my friends, it was only natural I’d start a business one day. 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!

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!

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!
