    perfect, natural radiance!

    Laela was so flexible and professional when I made some last minute changes to the hair and make-up list. She has over a decade of experience in the wedding beauty industry and it really shows in her work, her reliability, and her attitude! Not only did she and her team do a great job on hair and make up, they were a blast to spend the morning getting ready with.

    Beautiful Hair and Makeup

    I could not be happier with the services I received from Laela on my wedding day. She did both my hair and makeup, and I loved how they turned out. As someone who rarely wears makeup and wears her hair in a single style, Laela provided helpful and appreciated recommendations and wowed me during my trial. My trial made me even more excited for the big day. Laela is personable, professional, upbeat, and easy going. She was extremely accommodating in coordinating the schedule for my 4 bridesmaids, mother, mother in law, and myself, and hired an assistant to help get us all ready for my early afternoon ceremony. Laela and her assistant were so fun to be around while everyone was getting ready at The Essex, and they made everyone look stunning. I’d recommend her in a heartbeat!

    Friendly, Talented, & Flexible

    Laela was so awesome to work with throughout the entire planning process. She is so friendly and has great taste in music!
    Planning a wedding during covid can be stressful, but Laela was professional and flexible throughout the whole process.
    On the day of the wedding, her and her assistant were able to accommodate each of the bridesmaids requests. Everyone felt beautiful - and we were ton with plenty of time before pictures!

    Best Bridal Hair & Makeup!

    Laela was amazing and the perfect person for my wedding hair and makeup!! From the very beginning, Laela was accommodating and flexible. We flew to Vermont from the West Coast for our tasting months before our wedding and she made time for my hair and make up trial even though we were only in Burlington for about a day. A few months after my trial, I wanted to slightly change my hair and makeup and she was so flexible and understanding. She brought two assistants with her on my wedding day to do hair and makeup for my entire bridal party. They were all so friendly, professional, talented and very comfortable to work with. I loved my final hair and makeup and all of my bridesmaids and parents looked absolutely beautiful! I really wanted a more natural look, with a just a hint of boldness and she delivered!! I highly recommend Laela for your big day!!

    She's awesome!

    Laela was so much fun to work with! She did my hair and makeup for the rehearsal and the wedding. I ended up changing my mind on my wedding hair style after the rehearsal, and I loved both looks she came up with. She also did the hair for my mom, MIL and sister, and they all looked fantastic. Her assistant Renee was super talented as well. I would highly recommend Laela!

    Warm and Talented

    Laela did the makeup and hair for my daughter who normally doesn't wear makeup or do much with her hair. Laela's relaxed and kind ways help my daughter relax. The makeup made her more beautiful while skill looking natural. It was a wonderful experience and her prices were reasonable.

    Bridal Services By Laela's reply:

    Thank you so much Carmen! Loved doing your daughters hair and makeup. She is such a GEM and I appreciate you both very much! Cant wait to see the beautiful photos you took of her. Your photography skills are out of this world

    Everything was perfect!

    Laela was incredible! She is amazing with her work and very accommodating. I did two trials with her before my wedding. The first was awesome but I wanted to make some adjustments once I saw my dress. She gave a discount on the second trial and she nailed it. I highly recommend her services!

    Laela was wonderful to work with!

    Laela was fantastic! We had a wonderful trial run for my hair and makeup where she walked me through the makeup she was using and why and did a wonderful up do with my hair. I ended up asking to make some changes later on to my hairstyle and she was very flexible and executed the changes very well. She traveled to our wedding location to do my hair and was very timely. Highly recommend!

    Laela did the hair and make-up for my sister's wedding. She did the bride, plus six bridesmaids and a flower girl. She came to us, with an assistant. She was right on time and finished all of us with time to spare. We all looked gorgeous and my sister was the most beautiful bride I've ever seen! The products Laela uses are earth friendly and she had a huge variety of shades and colors. She was really flexible with us and checked in to make sure we were satisfied with our looks. I can't wait for my wedding, ill definitely be calling Laela for my bridal look.

    Incredible

    Laela is wonderful! Everything from the trial to the day of the wedding she made so easy and stress free! My Mom, Grandma and I all absolutely loved our hair and makeup! She is not only amazing at what she does but she is also a delight to be around! I would recommend her to absolutely everyone!

    Perfect perfect!

    Laela was amazing!! She offered a trial run far in advance to try out the wedding day vision, which was perfect! She is fun, flexible, and talented :) I couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend the getting-ready portion of my wedding day!

    I hired Laela to do my hair and makeup for my August 2018 wedding. As an out of state bride, I took a leap of faith hiring Laela based on online reviews. I need not have worried! Laela was professional, responsive, enthusiastic and talented! She had a wonderful assistant, Xena.

    On the day of the wedding, she arrived on time and had her full make up and hair kit ready to go. The groom's mother was worried about her hair staying styled and her make up staying on from 8:00 AM until the ceremony at 4:00. She need not have worried; her hair still had body at brunch the next day. Laela and Xena also gently handled a bridesmaid who had never gotten hair and make up done. I was most impressed with Laela's willingness to give her an impromptu haircut. My make up looked natural and highlighted my best features. I appreciated that Laela used makeup that did not run when I cried. Most importantly, she made everyone feel comfortable!
    Laela also cleaned up the groom's hair a few days before the wedding and he looked very handsome. She generally responded within 24 hours, if not sooner.

    It was great to work with Laela! The trail run gave us a chance to perfect the look and the day-of was flawless and lasted all night. Laela brought a helper, which was a great bonus. And the look translated seamlessly in the photos. What a pleasure!

    I was starting to get the wedding jitters when Laela walked into the room (right on time I should add). She calmed me down and I was very relaxed and comfortable with her while she did my hair and make up for the big day. The only request I had was that I wanted to look like myself in my wedding pictures and not over make uped and different. She nailed that on the head. My makeup was subtle but enough, my hair was unique and fit exactly what I wanted for my big day. You will not regret hiring Laela! Thank you for making an out of town bride's big day easy.

    Laela and her team are amazing! From the beginning, everything was very easy. Phone calls and emails were returned promptly and everyone really took their time to listen to what we wanted. My friends and I got both hair and makeup done and everyone looked absolutely stunning. Highly recommend Laela for any event or wedding!

    Laela was amazing and worked with me to figure out the hair style and makeup that I envisioned for my wedding. She was flexible with meeting times for the trail , which was very helpful as I was out of state. She was very prompt and was able to complete myself and my wedding party in timely manner. Thank you again for your services !!!!

    Laela was fantastic. I had a very small wedding, so I only needed hair & makeup for myself. Laela and her assistant Katelyn were professional, friendly, fun, knowledgeable, and very accommodating. I wasn't sure what I wanted for hair & makeup, but Laela had it figured out. I loved it. I felt and looked like a movie star! All of the products smelled great, and Laela uses makeup made with natural ingredients, which I appreciate. I would recommend Laela to anyone. I'm so glad I called Laela.

    I live in Upstate NY and had to find someone to do hair and makeup for bridesmaids in my best friend's wedding in Burlington, VT. Laela did not disappoint! She was flexible and met us at our hotel the morning of the wedding and worked on 5 bridesmaids and the mother of the bride.... She arrived with an assistant on time and finished with time to spare. She even had time to do an extra guest's hair and make-up who was with us that morning. Laela was very friendly and accommodating-- she was more than happy to make small changes that some of the bridesmaids asked for after finishing their hairstyles, which really made us feel comfortable. I have flat, soft hair that is a stylist's nightmare for an up do, but I loved what she was able to do with my hair. We all left for the wedding very happy!! Definitely would recommend!!

    Laela and her assistant had no problem showing up at my house at 7:30am since I had an early ceremony. Most of my bridesmaids hadn't even fully woken up yet but Laela was ready to go with a smile on her face. We all looked incredible. I felt like a princess, she had really put in the time to practice the hairstyle I desired that we had discussed during my hair trial and absolutely mastered it. Everyone in by bridal party looked stunning! Thank you do much Laela, you're amazing!

    Laela was amazing! I was a little nervous going in because I had a big group of girls but she and her team helped me with making time slots for people any everyone got done and looked beautiful with plenty of spare time before pictures. I also changed what I wanted to do with my hair after the trial, and because i lived across the country didn't have time for a second trial. Laela sent me pictures of her practicing my new look and my hair and makeup turned out better than I imagined! Thank you Laela!

    Great look, good value!

    Having a hair and makeup artist come to your venue instead of going to a salon can be pricey, but the look that I got from Bridal Services by Laela completely matched my vision and was worth it.

    My hair is relatively thin and I was worried it would look flat. She was able to give me a romantic updo that even included a braid! My makeup was natural and I totally looked like myself. I don’t wear too much makeup on a regular basis and my husband is not a fan of the overdone look either so for him to say my makeup looked good is a HUGE complement to the artist.

    One recommendation is to allow a lot more time than you think on your big day. It takes a lot to create the look even if you think it’s a simple look and is an art so give it time.

    Thank you for making me feel like a princess on my special day!
