Madeline was so easy to plan with, despite me not living in Montana. I was, however, able to make a trip out to Montana prior to my wedding for a trial, and I am so glad I did - we ended up completely changing my look for the big day! The day o...
f my wedding, Madeline and one of her amazing assistants were right on time and quickly did myself, my 6 bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law’s hair. 10/10 would recommend ❤️
I was amazingly impressed with Maddy of Mountain Soul Event Styling!! She was spectacular at making me feel very at ease and confident with my choice in her. Her ability and talents as a makeup artist and hair stylist are wonderful!! I showed h...
er pics and she gave her opinion and nailed it!! She also accommodated my Matron of Honor and I to finish dressing at her studio before heading into Glacier for the ceremony. May hair withstood the strong Glacier winds very well. I highly recommend Maddy and her team!! She has the most pleasing personality and is very talented in her arts!!!
Maddy was amazing to work with. She is professional and organized, and great communication prior to the day off. When the day came, she is all of that and more and we quickly felt like friends as she did my hair and makeup for my adventure day....
Sadly she wasn’t available for my wedding day as well but when I told her my plan was to do my own makeup on my wedding day she gave me a bunch of helpful tips and tricks and I was able to pull off a very similar makeup look on my own for the wedding day thanks to her! She is warm, friendly, listened to what I wanted and a beautiful soul inside and out. I would work with her again in a heartbeat. 10/10 recommend!!!! Thank you Maddy! <3
Any questions?
I was referred to Maddy from a local makeup artist in town and as soon as I saw her instagram and portfolio I knew she was exactly who I wanted to be apart of my wedding day! Maddy was so kind, down to earth and absolutely nailed the look ever...
yone was going for in my little micro-wedding bridal party. I showed her a few examples of the hairstyle I was going for as I love the boho / outdoorsy look and she combined everything that I loved from the pictures I showed her and I couldn’t have been more happy with how it all turned out! I received endless compliments the day of my wedding about my hair and I felt so beautiful! She’s amazing at what she does and she takes her time to give you the exact look you want. We had our ceremony and got photos done in Glacier National Park and for being outside even with the mountain winds, all of our hair held up! Would recommend her to anyone looking to get their hair done in the West Glacier area. 10/10 would recommend!
When I began to dream of eloping in MT, being so far away in MO, my first steps were to nail down my vendors. My only expectation was to find a stylist who knew how to capture the “feel”. A little research on some of the socials, I knew I wante...
d to book w/ MSSE. Maddy exceeded any dream, hope, expectation I had. The emotions I spit into words somehow made sense to her and she was able to conform my wedding hair into the style I had dreamed of. On top of that, she made my bridesmaids feel just as much, if not more, beautiful. Having her as a part of my beauty tribe that morning set the day in such a bright, positive, and exciting way. She’s personable, professional, and absolutely phenomenal. P.S. She even has experience as a barber and made my hubby more of a hottie!!! All our love, B + D <3
I cannot say enough good things about Maddy. I actually had my hair done by her when I was the maid of honor in a wedding, and we instantly clicked. Not only is she professional and amazing at her job, but she is so positive, kind and fun to be...
around! I knew that was the kind of energy I wanted to surround myself with on my own big day, so I pretty much booked her on the spot. Best decision ever. She made all my hair dreams come true. She is So talented, so easy to communicate with, right on time, and helped the day to flow perfectly. She also took such care to make sure my bridesmaids, mother, and mother in law felt beautiful as well which meant so much to me. Do yourself a favor and book her NOW!
Madeline was absolutely AMAZING! She was incredible from start to finish. I reached out super last minute with no real idea of what I wanted. She showed up completely prepared for anything (which really helped since we hadn’t met and she didn’t...
know my hair), I showed her an idea and she not only ran with it but made it look better than I could have even imagined! I have never been able to get my hair to hold a style and it literally held together into the next day even with tons of dancing and humidity. She made my wedding hair dreams come true and I’m so glad I chose her!
MADDY was a dream!!!! My girls were so obsessed with their hair and as was I with mine! She is so kind, patient, responsive, and attentive. An absolute master stylist. She did an absolutely incredible job on us all. My bridal hair (textured bun...
and some face framing curls) didn’t move for hours, she made sure that puppy stayed and withstood the lake winds. She also did a great job styling the groom!!! Brides, don’t look ANY FURTHER, she’s the one!
Maddy was the best choice we could have made to provide hair and makeup services for our wedding day! She made sure both myself and maid of honor looked amazing and felt confident on our big day. She was personable and made you feel like a frie...
nd. She even visited my husband to help him with any final touches he needed! “Above and beyond” doesn’t even come close to what she provided us. From extensive communication before the event, personalized style for the event, and even sticking around for a few minutes to help with a wardrobe malfunction! Maddy is one of a kind and anyone would be lucky to have her on their wedding day.
Maddy did my hair and makeup for my glacier elopement! She came to the house in a whitefish and was beyond sweet and executed what I wanted perfectly (especially with no trials). My hair was amazing and stayed in all day and night- even throu...
gh extreme wind! I did not want to take it out because it still looked so good. Make up was also on point. She did not make me feel cakey or fake. I truly felt so beautiful on my wedding day.
Maddy is pricey but I found all hair/makeup vendors to be similar in price and it is nice that she can do both and come to location!
Overall, Madeline was incredible to work with. I was so pleased throughout my whole experience working with her. She was always prompt, polite, and genuine.
Madeline nailed my hair trial the first time and then exceeded every expectation on t...
he day of my wedding. Myself, my mom, and my wedding party were all totally pleased with our hair for the big day.
Aside from being just wonderful at her job, Madeline was super fun to hang out with and we truly enjoyed spending the morning with her. She interacted wonderfully with the kids (even when they were less than ideal) and was just so sweet.
10/10 would (and have) recommend to a friend!
Maddy is amazing. She is so very talented! She not only made me feel the most beautiful I ever have for my wedding day, but her presence and personality in her interactions with my family and bridal party really helped erase the pre wedding ner...
ves!
I’m so thankful I found Maddy! She is amazing at what she does, from the trial to our wedding day she was so easy to work with. My bridal party loved her and more importantly they loved their hair! She made everyone feel so beautiful! If she h...
as your date available, jump on the opportunity - Maddy truly goes above and beyond!
Madeline is amazing!! The fact that she was agreeable to starting my hair and makeup at 4:30 am already earns her 5 stars in my book but her flexibility, talent and professionalism really was incredible! Not being from the area and planning an ...
elopement she was actually an incredible asset for local suggestions. We actually found our ceremony site because of her suggestion! Myself and my family loved spending our morning getting ready with her and can’t say enough good things! My hubby also loved that she offered a groom touch up- he felt very pampered and special as well ❤️
Booking Maddy for hair and makeup was a smooth process. Once booked, we remained in contact and she got an idea of what I was looking for by sharing inspo pics and answering a questionnaire. I’m glad that she asked for this bc that prompted me ...
to look into it! She was able to accommodate me and my schedule when many stylists could not bc I was getting married during the off season. She understood what I was looking for and made adjustments as needed. She made me and my mom look beautiful and feel beautiful. She is such a lovely person and so easy to talk to and work with. I highly recommend!
Maddy was spectacular! She tackled myself and my five bridesmaids (all of whom have more and longer than average hair) and she did so flawlessly. I could not have been happier with my hair on our wedding day! Leading up to the big day Maddy was...
so helpful, easy to talk to and coordinate with, and very professional (and personal). I would hire her again in a heartbeat.
Madeline was absolutely fantastic! She did my bridal hair and all of my bridesmaids and honestly I have never seen any of our hair looks as amazing as it did the day of my wedding! Madeline was super sweet and easy to work with leading up to my...
wedding day. I was not able to have a trial and Madeline was sweet enough to offer to practice my style on a mannequin and send pictures to me of it! I would definitely recommend Madeline to anyone!
It was a pleasure working with Madeline. After showing her several pinterest images of styles I liked, she was able to arrange and improvise to put together a similar look. She took into account little tid bits I wouldn’t even have thought off,...
like where my clip should go so that it can be most appreciated during the ceremony. She was flexible and accommodating when I changed the location where I chose to get ready, and also added several members of our family who also wanted to get hair styled last minute. She was personable, approachable, and knowledgeable not only about hair but also about the event/venue and what to do for the rest of my trip (we chose a destination wedding and made a vacation out of it).
Maddy is AMAZING! I have nothing but great things to say. I had an elopement turned micro wedding just outside of Glacier National Park for which I hired Maddy to style my hair and my family. We communicated via email for most things but she wa...
s prompt in her responses and made me feel happy I picked her for my big day. When I finally met her, it was like we were long lost friends. She was fun to talk to and made getting ready less stressful plus... she did a GREAT job on my hair!
Maddy was Amazing! I had searched a while for a hair stylist that would be on site and be able to do 5 people. She helped work with me to achieve the wedding look I wanted via email and picture since I live in a different state. She even recom...
mended a makeup artist for me as I was struggling to find someone that would travel. Over all it was a great experience.
Maddy was so awesome to work with, and made me and my bridesmaids hair look absolutely incredible! She was so sweet from the moment I met her for my trial and listened to everything I wanted to create the perfect updo for me. Each of my bridesm...
aids hair looked amazing. The girl can definitely braid! I'm so glad I chose her for my wedding day. She was calm and professional amongst the chaos of wedding morning. I've been in several weddings where we were rushing to get hair and makeup done before photos time, and she was ahead of schedule the entire time which was much appreciated. She also made my flower girl feel extra special with the cutest hair style. I can't recommend her enough!
I used Mountain Soul Styling for my elopement and could not be happier with the results. I was treated like an old friend and loved everything about my hair. After a full days of pictures in the mountains, my hair still looked fantastic!
I hired Maddy to do my hair for my elopement in GNP and it turned out great! I was coming from NYC so I wasn't able to do a trial beforehand, but she practiced on a mannequin the night before. I'm rating her a 4 (=fantastic) instead of a 5 just...
because the style she sent was pretty different what I had described and the photos I sent, which made me nervous. My suggestion would be to ask her to do this at least 2 days before to avoid night-before-wedding stress.
That being said, I was going for a sleek style (smooth, low bun) that was new to Maddy but she did a great job after I gave her more direction. It stayed in place from early afternoon to very late at night, even with lots of running around windy GNP!
Maddy was on time and has a fun, upbeat personality - I'd definitely recommend her.

Thank you for your review, Siobhan. I’m sorry to hear that you were stressed the night before your wedding. I do the run through on the mannequin for brides not able to do a trial , (as a courtesy) in order to help ease night before stress! I w...
ent off of the Pinterest board you sent me. I’m glad I was able to get the right style nailed down & that you looked absolutely gorgeous up in Glacier!
Maddy was amazing!! She was extremely professional! She arrived on time and provided a hair trial the day before. Maddy created the exact look I described and the updo did not budge in the high winds we experienced during the ceremony and pi...
ctures while in Glacier National Park. It literally looked the same by the time I was ready to take it down at the end of the night! She is so friendly and personable-you can tell she loves what she does and made me feel so at ease. She is definitely someone who would be reliable and trustworthy for your wedding day!! I highly recommend!!
Madeline did AMAZING work on myself and my whole bridal party! She listened to what everyone wanted for their hair and everyone loved how it turned out! She arrived on time, emailed me back promptly, and was very sweet! I would highly recommend...
her.
Maddie is the sweetest person and such a gem to work with on your wedding day! Not only is she a genius with styling (she nails a Haute bun like no one else!) but she is also so calm and collected and is able to ease any nerves that bubble up o...
n your wedding day. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
Where do I even start? From beginning to end Maddy was incredible. The second I met her I felt like I had known her for years. She was welcoming, caring, and really listened to all of my hopes and dreams for my wedding and how I wanted to look....
When I left the trial I had no doubts about Maddy and COULD NOT wait for my entire wedding party to meet her and have their hair done by her as well.
Come the day of the wedding Maddy blew me away. She spent ALL day doing 11 different hairstyles and let me tell you, every single person's hair turned out incredible. From half do's, buns, updos, etc. she nailed every single look that every person brought to her.
Maddy is not only extremely professional and phenomenal at what she does, but is always one of the most amazing people I've ever crossed paths with. She's sweet, caring, genuine, and just all around a great person. She will make you feel like an absolute QUEEN the day of your wedding.
If you need someone, THIS IS YOUR GIRL!!
I highly recommend Mountain Soul Event Styling! Maddy Coogler is an amazing Montana Bridal Hairstylist! She is so professional and talented! She took the time on a weekend to drive through a November storm to Flathead Lake to do a hair trial...
with me. She showed up with a smile and was so easy to talk to! Then, when my July wedding week rolled around and the weather was extra hot I asked her if we could switch my hairstyle to an updo so I would be more comfortable. She was flexible and pulled my new bridal look off with ease! She even worked in two hairpieces that I had not even shown her until the wedding day. Maddy brings a lot of experience to the table and it was easy to trust her. My bridal hair was better than I could have ever hoped for! Maddy was punctual and well prepared to do a variety of gorgeous hairstyles for my four bridesmaids and two flower girls. Maddy was easy to communicate with throughout the wedding planning process. She truly made me feel important. You can tell she loves her job! She is a Montana treasure!
I'm so grateful to have found Maddy for my West Glacier wedding. Not only was she really patient as I changed hairstyles and asked for things my hair just didn't want to do, but she also really delivered. She did a great job on my hair and also...
on some of the wedding party and family. She even did a clean up/trim for the groom's beard and he really liked the results (So did I!)
I also had a slight makeup mishap and difficulty putting on my dress and she stepped up to help. Her attitude is so calm, reassuring and can-do. Really appreciated having her there and would recommend her to anyone :-)
Maddy was wonderful to work with! She came to our house for my hair trial, which was super convenient, and she helped me figure out exactly how I wanted my hair to look. On our wedding day she cut and styled my soon-to-be hubby's hair and it lo...
oked fantastic! She brought complimentary mimosas for my bridesmaids and me and she even offered to help one of my bridesmaids with her hair. I could not recommend Maddy enough! She was so easy-going and sweet it made the hectic morning feel relaxing and upbeat!
Working with Madeline was an absolute pleasure. Traveling so far to get married is stressful, especially when you don't have any friends or family with you. But she was fun and professional, which put me at ease. I would 10/10 use her services...
again!
I had a 10/10 experience with Maddy. We met once before my big day and did a trial. She listened to exactly what I wanted and achieved it to the T! She is also a beautiful soul that was happy to give local insight and helpful tips for the rest...
of our trip. I truly enjoyed being around Maddy and talking with her as well as I was 100% happy with my hair for my wedding!
Maddy was INCREDIBLE for my wedding! She was so easygoing, professional, punctual, and wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend her for anyone in need of HAMU for their wedding or any special event!!
Maddy is absolutely amazing. Prior to my wedding day, she had me send her different hairstyles, so she could design them on her mannequin! It was very helpful to see her work done before hand to make a final decision on the style I wanted.
Onc...
e she arrived to our cabin, she was very professional and super friendly! Her skill level is honestly the best I have ever seen and I would recommend her services to everyone! Thank you, Maddy, for giving me my dream wedding hair and for making my experience stress free!

Nikki…
What you said means so much to me & I am carrying your words close to my little hair spray coated heart ❤️ (for real , thank you… so much!)
Maddy is awesome. She was so easy to communicate with before the big day, got a great feel for the style I was going for, and then MORE than delivered. Every one of my bridesmaids looked amazing and I LOVED my hair. It stayed perfect the entire...
night!! Could not recommend more highly.
Maddie was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She communicated well during the months/days leading up to my wedding and responded almost immediately to all my emails/messages. She gave my husband a shapeup/trim first and she did exactly w...
hat he wanted! Then on to me.. my hair turned out amazing!! I previously bought Halo extensions and she put them in my hair for me. My hair stayed the entire time, which ended up being about 8 hours!! I also had no problems with my bridal clip she put in for me!! I showed her a picture of what I wanted and it turned out even better than the picture! I am still getting compliments. I highly recommend Madeline!!
BEWARE!!! She canceled on me 2.5 weeks prior to my wedding, after a contract, deposit, and time confirmation just few days prior. Obviously, in a area where stylist book out years in advance, this left me stressed with almost no options. Don...
't make the same mistake I did and trust her!
Response from the Vendor on 07/15/2021
Hello Lauren. Once again, from the bottom of my heart, I am so sorry.
I made a scheduling error when my books opened for 2021. I was scrambling to keep up with the hundreds of requests I had coming in & yes, I made a mistake. I wish there was...
something more I could do to remedy the situation for you. I did refund your booking fee immediately and reached out to every bridal stylist in NW Montana. I’m so thankful for our small and supportive bridal community here in Montana and I was able to find a talented beauty team who could accommodate your party … (just hours after you received my email). I’m sorry I have caused you this stress & I truly hope you have an amazing time here in Montana.
I will continue refining my booking process and learn from this mistake.
Maddy made me feel absolutely stunning on my wedding day and her services were an excellent value. She was professional and timely in her responses, making the business aspect of the interaction a breeze. She was reliable and communicative thro...
ughout our interaction. She was patient and flexible for my very non-traditional wedding, and she was understanding when things changed from our original plan of who was having hair and makeup done. She was also just really fun to spend time with, and helped me create the serene and chill vibe I wanted while I was having hair and makeup done, which is really important when you end up spending a significant portion of your wedding day with the people helping you get ready. I could tell she worked really hard to prepare and make the makeup and hair trial a success, AND (this part was super important for me), when I brought things I wanted to change about my look and do a little differently from the trial for my wedding day she totally took it in stride and listened to everything I asked for, made those changes exactly as requested on my wedding day, and I couldn't have been happier. 100% recommend her services.
Maddy is WICKED talented and was so much fun to work with! She is an expert in her craft and it was so inspiring to watch her do her thing. She came incredibly prepared, even practicing my style on a mannequin the night before and sending my ph...
otos (I'm from out of state and didn't get to do a trial) which was incredible! You must book her for your big day!
I loved Maddie! She was on time, very professional and did a wonderful job! My party had all types of hair; long, short, thick, fine and curly, she did an excellent job on everyone. She is so sweet, I would hire her again in a heartbeat!
Maddy was AMAZING! My husband and I were eloping from North Carolina so I was nervous about hiring someone I didn't really know, but I was spot on choosing Mountain Soul. Maddy is so kind and makes you feel right at home from the first contact ...
I had with her via email to when she put the last bobby pin in my hair. Maddy did exactly what I wanted and gave great suggestions as well. What ever vision you have for you wedding or big event Maddy at Mountain Soul Event Styling will do a spectacular job making that vision come true!
