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.”

Hey there! A little background information about me. My name is Aleksandra. I am 36 years old based out of Waterbury, CT. Makeup has always been a passion of mine, ever since I was little you could find me doing my mom, little sister, and grandma's hair and makeup. I always wanted a career in the industry but never thought it was attainable. Until I reached a point in my life where I decided to take a leap of faith pack my bags and drive down to Georgia where my older sister (a master MUA who owns her own agency) lives.

“Aleksandra is amazing! Not only are we name twins but her service and attention to detail are so amazing. My makeup lasted all night, even when I cried like a baby during my ceremony. The hair service is also spectacular. My hair lasted all night even with my fine, straight hair that doesn’t like to hold a curl. Overall I would absolutely recommend her services.”

“I wanted to say thank you to Alex and Ashley. They did the hair and makeup for my daughter’s wedding last weekend for 6 of us. We all looked amazing! Most of us had pictures for how we wanted our hair and we got exactly what we wanted. My biggest concern was that Lacey and my hair usually doesn’t hold a curl and we planned on a lot of dancing. Our hair looked perfect at the end of the night. When it comes to makeup, we have the Irish red blotchy skin when happy or sad. Ashley used something to hide that. Even though we were very emotional, none of the pictures showed red blotches. Ashley also was an amazing listener when we went for the trial. Lacey kept saying glitter and sparkle (which scared me) but Ashley gave her beautiful sparkle and even ordered a special body glitter. Thank you both!”

It was amazing having Gaby on-site on my special day. They were very accommodating of last minute changes. My makeup was flawless and lasted all day (and even the next day!). 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!”

i’m a professional makeup artist with 7+ years of experience, specializing in bridal glam and waxing. i love creating elevated, personalized looks that make every client feel confident and beautiful. i work with all skin tones and also offer on-location services for weddings and special events throughout connecticut.

“I stressed over a lot of decisions I had to make for my wedding but hiring Wilda was certainly not one of them. she was so sweet and professional which really made the "prep" part of the day memorable and enjoyable. Wilda is truly talented, but maybe more importantly, she listens to what you want and is able to make it happen. I love the transformative power of makeup, but for my wedding, I didn't want to transform, I wanted to look like myself only better. Thanks to Wilda, I really felt flawless on my big day and not just made-up. I could recommend Wilda wholeheartedly (and did!). She is a true professional – punctual, organized, experienced – as well as an amazing artist.”

“I hired Delia and Payton from Tre Chique salon for my wedding in September 2023, and they created the most perfect look for me! I have been a client and fan of Tre Chique since early 2022, and I had reached out to Delia and her team regarding hair and makeup services for my three bridesmaids and me on my wedding day as well as my hair and makeup services before my rehearsal dinner. We scheduled my beauty trial about 10-months in advance of my wedding followed by a retrial for makeup. Payton was eager to create the look that I had envisioned during the retrial, and I would encourage brides to speak up if they are not feeling 100% comfortable and confident as most artists and stylists are willing to work with you during a retrial. On my wedding day, both Delia and Payton surpassed my expectations during the trial and achieved the most beautiful look for me! You can absolutely trust Delia and her team to arrive on-time, to complete the desired looks in the allotted time, and to demonstrate an exceptional level of patience and professionalism. Plus they’re enjoyable to be around on your wedding day! I will be hiring this team for all of my future events as a wedding guest or guest of honor, and I recommend you do the same!”

I looked like myself - just an elevated version! She was so easy to work with throughout the entire wedding process and patient with the fact that I know very little about makeup.

Hi, I’m Izzy, the makeup artist behind Brides by Izzy! I’ve always loved makeup. I was the kid whose mom had to come pick her up from school because I was wearing too much makeup! 😂 When I started my makeup journey, I knew I wanted to focus on brides. Why? Because I’m the person who wants everything to be perfect, pays attention to every little detail, and wants to be someone you can count on. I love taking care of people and making sure they feel their best. And I thought: makeup + dedication = bridal makeup! ✨

During our trial, Izzy did an amazing job but not quite what I had in mind and she made it very easy for me to communicate that to her; she was absolutely open to the feedback and we were able to discuss what I wanted to change. On my wedding morning, she was on time and she made it a relaxing and nice environment. We talked all the way through!! The final work was amazing! Exactly what I had in mind!!
