“It was very hard to find beauty professionals who wanted to work with my very small wedding party (me and one bridesmaid) but Sarah was really nice and polite and helpful right from the start and she seemed excited to work with me. I was really reassured that she understood right from the start the hairstyle that I wanted and my hair type and got the exact style I wanted on the first try at my hair trial. The day of my wedding she was really communicative and on time and the experience was laid back and perfect. My bridesmaid's hair looked so beautiful and she was so happy that her hair was both gorgeous and that the style was functional since she was helping me and wrangling her two toddlers all day. My hair came out perfect and I felt like a princess. I can't recommend Sarah highly enough!”

“Working with True Vermont Beauty was wonderful from start to finish. Liesel was communicative and professional in her response to my initial inquiry, and the survey/questionnaire that was sent to me helped me and my bridesmaids start thinking about what we wanted style-wise. Andrea and Karla did both my bridal trial and were our day of artists – and they were both truly wonderful. For the trial – I was offered a variety of options and I really felt like the look I ended up with was something that was truly me and that would last all day (I'm an easy crier). The team also provided great logistics info like start times and when to be ready so that we had a realistic timeline to get everything done for a first look at 2PM. They also worked really well with my florist – who was providing a floral hairpiece, and worked the floral arrival time into the timeline. Day of – Andrea and Karla were wonderful. They moved through 7 hair services and 5 makeup services, they even ran early, and everyone looked so beautiful! They were also super fun, and we had a great time chatting throughout the morning. The mood was great to say the least. My hair stayed in place until the end of the night when I took it out around midnight, and the same thing with my makeup. Everything stayed exactly as it was, no movement, no running, no smearing – which was just incredible because not only did I walk around in some light rain but it was also quite warm AND I cried several times. So – absolute kudos to this team, I can’t recommend them highly enough!”

“I first heard about Seventh Heaven from my sister who gets her hair cut by Katelyn. From my first email with Katelyn I was so impressed with her quick response time and how warm and welcoming her emails were. I was a bit shocked at the prices at first and thought they seemed high compared to other hair/makeup teams I had reached out to. Seventh Heaven is ABSOLUTELY worth the money. A lot of the hair/makeup teams I had reached out to never even responded, and the others sent me reply emails that seemed almost uninterested. Katelyn was so quick to respond every time I reached out and the hair and makeup she and Melissa did for myself and my bridesmaids was the best I had ever seen. Katelyn & Melissa were so fun to work with and I would recommend them over and over and over again!”

She is everything one would want in a makeup artist: she is incredibly talented, knows how to make you feel gorgeous and confident, and she brings such positive & relaxing energy to one of the most important days of your life. I knew after our first phone call that I wanted to work with her; she has a unique ability to make you feel comfortable as her client, listens deeply & patiently to your vision for the day, and asks such thoughtful questions that shows she is paying attention to all the little details. My mom and I has such a great time at our trial with her over the summer and it got both of us so excited to work with her on my wedding day. I really appreciated how she encouraged me to give her feedback and to feel comfortable requesting even the smallest adjustments to the hair & makeup look so that everything was perfect. When she arrived the morning of the wedding, it genuinely felt like I was hugging an old friend. I instantly felt so much calmer and at ease in her presence. She is EXACTLY the type of person you want by your side on what could otherwise feel like a hectic morning. I can honestly say that I never felt more beautiful in my life than I did that day all thanks to Alycia. She was also so warm and patient making conversation with my 9 year old goddaughter who can be picky about her hair and makeup. To top it all off, it rained during our outdoor ceremony, and my makeup & hair stayed totally intact! I had so many people asking who my makeup artist was for that reason. My look made it all the way through the end of our after party. Alycia you are truly a goddess and I am so grateful for you!!”
