Awarded Best of Zola
“The Stately Rose Beauty Studio was absolutely amazing to work with for my wedding day. From the very first consultation, they were prompt, proactive, and made me feel at ease. Their communication was top-notch, and they went above and beyond to ensure my hair and makeup were perfect. Despite the incredibly windy conditions that forced us to move cocktail hour inside, my hair and makeup stayed flawless through all the outdoor photos and the rest of the reception. I received so many compliments on my hair and make up, even days later. My mother-in-law even shed a few happy tears at how beautiful her make up looked. The team at Stately Rose has such great personalities - they were efficient, skilled, and made the entire process so easy. I cannot recommend them highly enough for any bride looking for an amazing beauty team for their special day.”

Hi! My name is Marisa Russo, the owner of ME Salon and Spa. I have been a stylist since 2014 and I opened this salon at 25 years old in 2021. I have been a bridal beauty expert my entire career. The places I have worked for have had many flaws, so I took my ideas and knowledge and put my heart into this bridal business to give Bride's and Bridal parties the best experience from start to finish.

“I cannot say enough good things about ME Salon and Spa. We had Patty for hair and Sarah for makeup and both were absolutely phenomenal. I am not someone who usually likes the way my makeup turns out when done professionally (love the process but then feel like I do not look ike myself) and that was not the case on the best day ever (wedding day). I LOVED my hair and makeup and they both truly understood what I was asking for and envisioning. I wanted my hair to look whimsical and loose but not move an inch and my makeup I wanted to look like myself but better of course. I never have good experiences with fake lashes but did want some and Sarah made them comfortable and last all night and changed out the length for me to make sure I loved them. They were amazing and loved my trial there as well. They also did great work with my bridal party. Would absolutely recommend!”

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!”
