    We Loved Melissa and Team!

    Melissa and her team were awesome! They were so friendly and so much fun to have around on the morning of the wedding. My bridesmaids and I were so pleased with how they did our hair and makeup; they really brought our visions to life!

    Melissa worked on my makeup as the bride and did a fantastic job. I told her that I wanted a little more makeup vs. my trial from a few months before, and what she ended up doing with my cheeks, eyes, lips etc. looked absolutely amazing. Same with my hairstyle as well!

    Overall we were extremely happy with the team and I would definitely highly recommend Melissa to any future brides!

    Amazing Experience!

    I had an amazing experience with Danielle as my hair stylist for both my trials and wedding day. Danielle is very skilled at styling hair in a way that meets the clients' needs and expectations and also constantly maintains professionalism and timeliness. I had seven women getting their hair done on my wedding day, including myself, my mother, my mother-in-law, my matron of honor, and the bridesmaids. Danielle arrived early and finished early after doing an amazing job. Everyone was very happy with their end result and our hair looked fantastic at the end of the night! I'm still receiving comments about how great everyone looked. Communicating with Melissa was also a wonderful experience. Her responses were prompt and her instructions for wedding trial and day preparation were thorough. I would highly recommend Melissa and Danielle for your wedding hair needs!

    Best day ever!!

    Melissa and her team were very amazing. Bernice did my make-up and Kerrie did my hair. Everything was what I requested. I felt beautiful on my wedding day! They both did an amazing job!! I showed both Kerrie and Bernice what I wanted and they both went above and beyond. Melissa was also very responsive and professional. I booked for my trial last minute and she was able to accommodate me!! Highly recommended!!

    Best Hair/Make Up Team

    I used Melissa’s team for both hair and make up for my recent wedding and they did not disappoint. My hair and make up stayed perfect all day and night! I’m usually quite picky when it comes to my make up because I usually don’t wear a lot; Nicolette did the perfect amount where it wasn’t too much, but I still felt like a beautiful bride on my wedding day. Shelly did a wonderful job with everyone’s hair! Everyone looked stunning! It was also so nice to have to deal with only one vendor for hair and make up instead of the usual two different vendors. Melissa was always responsiveness and a pleasure to communicate with during the process. You won’t be disappointed if you book Melissa and her team!

    Melissa D'Aloia & Co.'s reply:

    Thank you Alyssa!!! It was a true pleasure to have you, we are so glad you enjoyed everything we wish you all the very best on your new journey in marriage.

    So beautiful!

    Everything was PERFECT. Meliss and her team were so accommodating and came to my house to get us ready!! All of the girls were SO happy with their hair and makeup. And of course, it held up all night. Everyone loved everything and the team even helped out our two grandmothers as well.

    I thought the camera hated me..

    So leading up to our wedding, I was having serious anxiety about how I would look and feeling my "best." I was so stressed out I actually went for my trial and legit almost had a panic attack but Melissa eased every. single. one. of my worries and stress.

    Not only is she just the absolute cutest human being on the planet but she is so sweet. As for her talent, she somehow takes your face, and makes it look like the absolute best version of yourself. She doesn't overdo it but also gives you enough something to feel extra special.

    My mom was so worried too so she also went for a trial and she left the toughest to please one smiling ear to ear. I cannot recommend her enough.

    Made me feel like a princess!

    Melissa D’Aloia and her team did an amazing job for my wedding hair and makeup!! We had Andrea and Jess for hair and Nicole and Nicolette for makeup and they were truly fantastic. I was nervous about getting everything done before the photographer came but they were such pros and everything was done well before we had to start the photos! My hair and makeup looked STUNNING and I felt like a princess because of them! All of my bridesmaids and my mom and mother-in-law looked fantastic as well! They were also so patient and friendly. My eye kept tearing and they were great about helping me touch it up so nothing got messed up. I am so grateful for the amazing team!

    Melissa did an AMAZING job on my make up and the make up for all my girls. Everyone looked gorgeous and was really happy with the service provided. I have recommended her to my friends that are getting married and would do so if anyone asked me.

    Melissa & Her Team are Amazing!!

    Melissa and her team were amazing!! I hired Melissa for my wedding in October. After making the decision to postpone our wedding from October 2020 to October 2021 and I lost the original hair and makeup team I had hired, I came across Melissa. Melissa was very professional and a pleasure to work with throughout every step of the process. She happily answered every single one of my questions. We had 2 hair stylists and 2 makeup artists since there were about 10 of us getting hair and makeup done. The day of, Melissa and her team were on time and made the entire process stress-free and extremely fun. We all looked fabulous and our hair and makeup lasted the entire night. I cannot recommend Melissa and her team enough!!

    Flawless hair and experience!

    My entire experience with Melissa D’Aloia and her stylist, Lisa, was flawless. Melissa is responsive, professional, flexible and kind, and her pairing me with Lisa for my wedding day was a perfect fit. Lisa is truly incredible at what she does, taking ideas I had for my hair, giving me advice about how to make it work for me and even accommodating a slight direction change the morning of my wedding. My hair looked absolutely incredible throughout the day and night as did my bridal party and moms! Thank you Lisa and Melissa for your incredible talents in making me look great for my wedding day!

    100% recommend

    I can't say enough good things about our hair and makeup team! My bridesmaids all loved their chosen looks, and I never once had to worry about or touch up my hair or makeup on my wedding day, which is all the more remarkable since our wedding was outside, I cried, and danced the night away. Marilu did my makeup. During my trial, I opted for regular makeup and an ombre eye. Marilu did a great job, but since I normally wear very minimal makeup, it didn't feel like me. So on my wedding day, I completely changed course and opted for airbrush makeup and a neutral eye and lip. Marilu understood exactly the natural-esque look I wanted and applied my makeup flawlessly. Andrea did my hair. We worked through a few different versions of the bun I wanted during our trial, and on the day of our wedding, she executed the vision perfectly. I couldn't recommend Marilu or Andrea more highly!

    Great experience

    Melissa was easy to communicate with. Sabrina for makeup and Jessica for hair were wonderful! They are professional and take their time with each person. Jessica can do a variety of hairstyles which helped since everyone wanted a different look! I'd recommend them!

    An amazing experience!

    I am so happy I found Melissa D'Aloia & Co. for my wedding hair and makeup! Melissa was very responsive to my emails (something I found other vendors were not), professional and friendly. She and Kerry, who did my hair, listened to my ideas and helped bring my vision to life. I was amazed that from the few comments/suggestions I had from my trial they were able to make changes and give me exactly what I wanted on my wedding day. I truly felt beautiful and so did my bridesmaids and mother. Thank you for making me feel like a princess and make my wedding day so memorable!

    Wedding Hair

    Melissa is AMAZING! From booking to the day of, she was in communication with me, answering any questions quickly and making sure the schedule was finalized. She provided ideas when needed. Andrea and Jess did a phenomenal job with the bridesmaids and my hair. Even in 90 degree weather, our hair lasted the entire day! The day of, Andrea and Jess did a great job listening to the girls' requests and sticking to the schedule. I highly recommend booking with Melissa!

    Best Hair and Makeup!!!!

    Melissa and her team were amazing!! I postponed my wedding 4 times and every time Melissa made the postponement process so easy!

    Melissa and her team did my hair and makeup multiple times (engagement shoot, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, 2 hair and makeup trials) and every time they did a great job! Melissa is sooo responsive, kind, and fun to be around.

    The day of, her and her team (I think 3 hair and 3 make up girls) did an UNREAL job. Everyone's hair and makeup looked amazing and lasted the entire day and night. We started getting ready at 8am and the party didn't end until 1am. Everyone's hair and makeup stayed in place.

    I would highly highly recommend Melissa and her team for your wedding!!!

    Perfect makeup

    I knew right away that Marixa was the perfect makeup person for us. She got my look right away, and the rest of the party. My mother, who is very aware of a scar on her nose, loves the pictures of her more than any in the last 2 years. To me, that’s the best part! Everyone looked and felt gorgeous

    Flawless work

    Working with Melissa’s team was a pleasure! Melissa was responsive and helpful. Nicole was our makeup artist the day of the wedding and she was fantastic! She did make up on 6 of my bridesmaids plus myself. She spent time on each girl to make sure our look was flawless. Never did we feel rushed for time or panicked. Nicole made sure that everyone was happy with their look and did touch ups right before we all walked down the aisle. She worked with my photographer to make sure they got the shots they wanted. I would 100% recommend Melissa’s company and her team, especially Nicole. Thank you so much for helping to make our day perfect!

    Melissa D'Aloia & Co.'s reply:

    Congratulations Lauren, thank you so much for your feedback it is greatly appreciate thank you for trusting us on your wedding day it was an honor please be sure to send us your beautiful photo's when you get them back.

    Best wishes!

    Amazing and wonderful!!!

    I booked Melissa D'Aloia & Co. Luxury Hair + Make Up as the hair stylist for my wedding earlier in June 2019. I had a trial with Andrea a couple months before the wedding and loved the look she did for me: elegant, beautiful, sophisticated, and everything I was looking for. On of the day of the wedding, Andrea really brought her A-game and made my hair look even more amazing than it did during the trial! I was SO pleased and happy with my hair and received so many compliments from our guests. I felt like a true princess! Melissa and her team are very talented artists and in addition to their stellar skills, they are such personable and sincere individuals and I really enjoyed my interactions and conversations with them. Everyone was so lovely to work with and I highly recommend Melissa and her team! Thank you Melissa and Andrea!

    Inclusive Make Up Artist

    Melissa and Shelly are two talented make up artists that I was lucky to work with on my big day. In my search for artists it was important to find someone who could work with a wide range of skin tones and types as well as honor the individual personalities of everyone in my bridal party. Melissa and Shelly helped everyone feel comfortable, even those who do not normally wear make up. I felt so beautiful as myself on my big day and so happy I was able to work with them

    Above and beyond!

    Melissa and her team were absolutely amazing!
    Nicole and Sabrina were the 2 make up artists working the day of my wedding and I couldn't have been happier with everything.
    Throughout the whole process, Melissa was extremely professional, responsive and willing to work with my situation (I had a pregnant bridesmaid that I wasn't sure was going to make the day).
    I wouldn't have changed a thing - I am so thankful for her and her team :)

    Beautiful hair and makeup!

    Melissa and her team were recommended by my wedding planner. I could not have been happier to have worked with them! When I had my trial both my hair and makeup were spot on and no changes were needed. On my wedding day Melissa, Danielle and the team were so professional and efficient. My hair and makeup was stunning and I received so many compliments throughout the day as well as later when people saw photos. My bridal party was also all extremely happy with how their hair and makeup turned out. My friend absolutely loved how my hair and makeup looked that he ended up booking Melissa's team to do the ladies at his wedding. Melissa and her team is amazing and I am so glad they were part of my big day!

    Beyond expectations

    I couldn't be happier with booking Melissa D'Aloia & Co for my wedding day! From the beginning to my wedding day Melissa was extreme responsive, friendly and personable. I loved what Melissa and Keery did for my trial, but the day of was even better. It was exactly what I wanted, and I've never felt prettier. They were so accommodating and very friendly! My mom and I both decided to add hair extensions last minute and it was not a problem. All of my girls looked absolutely stunning and felt their best the entire night. we were even ready earlier than planned which was great on such a busy day. I would highly recommend Melissa and her team, they are the best!
