Dana and Gina were phenomenal! From the very first trial apt, to being prepared for the day of, and the day of hair and makeup. They are easy to talk to, knowledgeable, personably,...
and So talented. They made everyone feel comfortable and did a beautiful job on all of us!
Wow wow wow. What can I say. Dana and Gina really hit it out of the park with my bridal party and me. Everyone could not stop complimenting all us girls on our hair and makeup! My ...
hair and makeup stayed mostly throughout the night. I had to touch myself up with hair and makeup once each because i got ready extremely early due to the amount of pictures I needed to take. Dana and Gina were fast, effiecient, and made us all look amazing. My bridesmaids could not stop raving about how great of a job they did - and all my brides out there this is definitely rare!. I highly highly recommend booking In Style Down the Aisle for your wedding or special event!
Both Dana & Gina were amazing, professional, funny, and patient with everyone's questions or requests. They traveled to our hotel suite in Newark & did hair (up-do's) and makeup f...
or 7 people in about three hours and kept us all on task and on schedule. Everyone looked amazing and loved their hair & makeup! We all got so many compliments throughout the day/night and we all looked perfect through the last dance of the night at 11pm! I loved how elegant & natural we all looked! It was just great!!!
My hair even stayed in until we got to St. Lucia when I finally had to take it down after the plane ride. I cannot say thank you enough!!! I will be recommending your services to anyone I know getting married in the future!!!
Dana was fantastic to work with! She came to the hotel where we were getting ready and did amazing work! She took care of my hair, the bridal party, my sister-in-laws and the moms ...
and everyone looked stunning! I loved my hair and it stayed in until 3:00am (and I danced the whole night!) I would definitely recommend her to any bride!
Dana is a Hair Goddess! She did hair for me, my Matron-of-Honor, two bridesmaids, Mom, and Mother-in-law. It was so convenient that she traveled to us right at the hotel. Talent...
ed does not enough come near what Dana can do - she whipped up a design in my Mom's hair using two vintage chandelier earring and rearranged my birdcage in a way I never though possible! We were ALL so happy with the finished hairstyles. Dana works with a makeup artist who is so sweet, plus everyone commented on how good our makeup looked. The fantastic service, terrific and friendly personalities, and the fact that they come to you, makes it one less thing a bride has to worry about on her special day! Would recommend them to everyone!
I booked Dana last minute due to a hairstylist issue, and she lived up to every expectation I had. My bridal party and myself, along with my mother-in-law had their hair done. She...
was very fast and very efficient with her work. Every picture Dana saw she executed perfectly and everyone received compliments. My hair didn't move all night and stayed in place. I'm so happy I was able to have Dana there on my special day!
Dana did my hair and Kate did my makeup for my wedding as well as my 10 bridesmaids - we were stunning and I have never felt as beautiful as I did that day. I told them exactly wh...
at I wanted and they gave it to me! It was so easy!Dana and Kate were quick but careful and did an amazing job. The team is so easy going and were open to all of my preferences. They did not push me toward a look I did not want which I really appreciated and they definitely made sure I was happy with the end result. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a professional hair and makeup artist with a ton of talent and awesome personalities. They will transform you! The best part was seeing my husband's face for the first. He was blown away and cried like a girl! i loved every second of it. Thank you, Andie!!!!
I absolutely loved the In Style Down the Aisle Hair Team. They did my hair and my four bridesmaid's hair for my wedding day. They listened to what the bridesmaid's wanted and ever...
yone looked absolutely stunning. I would recommend them hands down!
I knew from the moment I had my hair trial with Dana that she was for me. We just clicked. She has the ability to mimic what you show her and has AMAZING talent! Kate can look at y...
ou and know exactly how to use her makeup to make you look flawless. No touch ups needed for hair or makeup all night long! Dana and Kate also did my mother's and bridal party hair and makeup - no one was disappointed! The name says it all, In Style Down the Aisle and the whole night thru! Highly recommend!
Kate and Dana are an awesome team as my wedding hair and makeup professionals. I LOVED my look! I had a large party (10 girls) and they were here early to accommodate each of us. K...
ate was especially flexible with the various makeup requests, eyes only, full face, airbrush -- she did it all and everyone looked beautiful! Dana's hair styles were flawless and she was always offering to touch up hair to ensure happiness and perfection. And, aside from their skills, they are really nice girls who made my wedding morning a calm, yet fun experience. I was so happy with In Style Down The Aisle for my wedding hair and makeup and would recommend them time and time again! :)
Booking In Style Down the Isle for my wedding was one of the best decisions I could have made! With all of the money you spend on a wedding, especially your gown, jewelry, accessor...
ies, etc., it is a complete waste of money if your hair doesn't look good! The hair can really make or break your wedding day look. I am so happy to say that mine totally made mine!
I love Dana! She is so sweet, down to earth and very easy to work with. Dana is knowledgeable, always got back to me quickly and very flexible. She actually cares about her brides and connects with them. She doesn't make you feel like a "client" on your wedding day, rather an old friend. She communicated with me often between my trial and my wedding. By the day of my wedding, we were like "sisters from different misters".
I scheduled 2 trials with Dana. There were two styles I really liked and I wanted to see how each of them would look. Before my trials I communicated Dana a lot because I have very thin hair and tend to like fuller styles. I was sure I would need extensions. She assured me I wouldn't and she was so right. I have never seen anyone tease hair like Dana! I ended up loving both styles. I couldn't believe how great my hair looked, so I booked Dana to style my hair for my rehearsal dinner also. It came out great and I was so happy I did!
The day of the wedding I still couldn't decide which style I liked the best. Dana suggested we merge the two together. I was a little nervous, having never seen exactly what it would look like before. I LOVED it and could not have been happier with the way that my hair looked. It was beautiful. I got so many compliments throughout the night.
Dana also did updos for my mother, the MOG, and 3 of my bridesmaids. They all loved their hair! My mother is extremely picky when it comes to her hair. She typically does it herself but wanted "the experience". I was so nervous she would not like her hair and it would ruin her day. Dana was wonderful. She was very patient with my mom and they talked through her style as they went. Dana made sure my mom was happy with her hair before she got out of the chair. My mother ended up LOVING her hair---I couldn't believe it! But then again, Dana is the best!
Choosing In Style Down the Isle was so great because Dana will travel to you! It was wonderful because I didn't need to worry about traveling to appointments the morning of. I was able to sit back and relax with my family. Dana also was very flexible and accommodating. She helped me to make a day of schedule so that she and the makeup artist could work on all the girls and everything would run smoothly and I wouldn't need to worry about anything!
I can not say enough about In Style Down the Isle or Dana. I would recommend Dana to any bride. I know I will be calling her again in the future to make my hair gorgeous! Thank you, Dana!!!
My experience with both Dana and Katie was amazing, not only did we all look and feel amazing, but they are sweet, caring and VERY talented women!!!! I am very picky with my make-u...
p and after our trial I knew I chose the right team!!!!! there was never a doubt in my mind that dana and katie weren't the perfect pair!!! best part..they come to you!!!
I recently got married on October 27, 2012 and used In Style Down the Aisle for my hair and makeup. Dana and Kate are beyond amazing! They are both so sweet and accommodating (Dana...
put up with my craziness for 6 months before my wedding and Kate helped me relax on my wedding day). I felt so beautiful that day and everyone kept complimenting me on how great my hair and makeup looked. Most importantly, my hair stayed in place all night and my makeup did not smear, smudge, or wear off even though I danced up a storm and people were hugging me all night. One of the best parts of hiring them was also the fact that they came to my hotel. I didn't have to worry about running around to salon appointments and was able to relax in my hotel room. Dana and Kate are both super professional, arrived early on my wedding day, and were always available to answer any questions I had almost immediately. I cannot say enough how wonderful they are and I highly recommend them to any bride looking to have THE best hair and makeup and a stress free experience on her wedding day!
I am very happy that I went with Dana and Kate for my hair and make up services. They are definitely no nonsense but they know what they are doing. My bridesmaids and I looked be...

These ladies are absolutely gifted! Dana did hair for four bridesmaids and myself for my wedding. Each girl picked a different style and Dana was able to interpret each from a pr...
inted picture. Every girl was thrilled with how their hair came out! Additionally, Kate did my makeup and the makeup for one of my bridesmaids. I received so many compliments and it looked completely natural and beautiful in the pictures. She truly is an artist! Thank you Dana and Kate for sharing your talents with the rest of us!
Dana was fantastic!!! She is friendly & professional and my whole family enjoyed her being a part of the process! She did 6 women and from the first girl in her chair to the last t...
hey were beyond thrilled and looked gorgeous. She pleased two fifteen year old girls (who can be fickle) up to my mom who is 67 and everyone was just ecstatic. Now onto my hair... I loved it!! It was gorgeous at the trial but the day of was even more amazing!! And let me share that I have hair past my natural waist and its super curly... it didn't even phase her and it turned out amazing (and let me say I went on a couple of hair trials because people said they could work on my hair and to put it nicely that was not the case). So if you have curly hair Dana is the stylist for you!!! I cannot thank Dana enough it stayed perfect through the last dance. :)
I just got married on June 30, 2012. I was so nervous about my hair and makeup because I didn't really know how I wanted it. When I got to my trial I quickly realized I had NOTHING...
to worry about. Dana and Kate are a Dream Team! I even changed the way I wanted my hair three days before the wedding. Dana was great and assured me it would be exactly how I envisioned it. Oh how right she was! I loved the way I looked and my bridal party looked perfect! They are professional and punctual. The way I looked I at 11am was the way I looked at 11:30pm. Thank you Ladies! Your the best!!!
Dana traveled to my hotel the day of the wedding and did my hair and my 8 bridesmaids. She did such a fabulous job! She stuck to a timeline and made sure everyone was coinciding wi...

Dana and Kate were absolutely wonderful. They made all of my bridesmaids look outstanding. They were extremely professional and were on time. Dana and Kate really listened to what ...
types of styles we wanted and helped to create the greatest looks for my wedding. I want to thank them for helping me to look absolutely amazing on my wedding day!
Dana did a amazing john my hair for my wedding and my bridal party. My hair held great and Dana was a pleasure to work with! Would recommend her to anyone!
Dana was amazing!! Everyone had the best hair and loved it! So talented!
The makeup artist was great and really sweet, but it's a pain that you have to buy all of the makeup she puts on you. For example, she applies your lipstick liner and lipstick, bu...
t doesn't leave it with you or leave you any samples, so you end up having to spend like $100 on more makeup.
The hair stylist did a fine job on all of our hair, but I felt that she and her assistants were a bit curt with me and my bridal party and didn't once crack a smile. More importantly, my hair did not hold very long. Granted there is only so much you can do when it is hot outside and you are doing a lot of dancing and thus sweating, but my hair curled up really quickly and lost the style way sooner than I think it should have. I wish she had told me to bring a curling iron or something for touch ups, that's something I would have never thought of and she probably should have.
I want to start by saying Dana and her assistant were FABULOUS! Everyone looked gorgeous and loved their hair style. They were so professional and finished early! Dana was so accom...
modating throughout the entire process. I actually went for three hair trials because after the first trial I bought a headpiece and wanted to make sure that I had a trial with the headpiece. I actually loved the second look but my FI did not so there I was going for a third trial. I am so happy I did! My third look was PERFECT. All and all Dana made me look and feel fabulous and beautiful....Loved it and would use her services again in an instant!
I was so lucky I found Dana on Wedding Wire. She is a fabulous stylist and makes you feel so amazingly special. After my trial, I knew how much I wanted her to do my hair on the da...
y. We had such a fun time, it was like being with a girlfriend I'd known for a long time. On the actual wedding day, she and her assistant were just fabulous. They treated us with kindness, calmness and respect. They made me and my bridesmaids look more beautiful than I ever thought possible. I wholeheartedly recommend In Style Down The Aisle to any bride who wants to look beautiful, not overspend and have a fantastic experience.
Overall, I was very happy with Dana and Kate. They did a beautiful job the day of the wedding with both hair and makeup, and everyone was pleased with their work. They were very re...
sponsive to emails and easy to get in touch with. I came across their group through this site, going through reviews of hair and makeup teams.
They are routed in Northern NJ and do not travel to you for trials, and only do trials on weekdays. Being from Central NJ and working a 9-5 job, it was a bit inconvenient.
The trial went well, though they scheduled another bride for the same time and I felt a bit rushed. For my hair trial, I showed Dana photos of what I wanted, and she got it on the first try. When she was done though, it was on to the next, and I had no time to play around with it and try something else. With Kate, it was difficult for her to understand what I was asking, and we did my makeup over 3 times. She was very reassuring and patient, though, so I trusted I could continue to talk to her about it before the wedding and she would accommodate me. The trial was pricy - almost as much as the day of would cost.
Kate was a sweetheart - I went for a few MAC counter makeup applications after her trial and sent her some pictures. She was more than happy to talk to me for an hour over the phone, swapping pictures and getting down to what it was I was looking for. On the day of, not only did I LOVE what she did, but she did a fantastic job with everyone else! And her time management was wonderful. She waited until everyone was dressed, and did a double check to make sure everyone was looking their best. I would definitely recommend her for your wedding.
Dana had a bit of a harder edge with my family and bridal party. She brought an assistant, who mostly sat in the corner the whole time. She only worked to prep 1 or 2 people to curl their hair. I would have preferred she bring a second stylist. Dana finished everyone with time to spare, but did not wait around. After the last bobby pin was secure, she packed up and left. I wish she hadn't - as the bride my hair started falling out 5 MINUTES after the dress was on. I had my sister and my mom frantically shoving bobby pins into my up-do to get me down the aisle. This is why I rated a 3/5 for value - I did not think the quality of service I got from Dana on the day of matched the large amount of money I spent to use her.
Also bare in mind they both charge for travel and an early morning fee...so if you're getting married in the morning or afternoon and they have to get there at 6 or 7, it will cost you more.
Like I said, everyone looked gorgeous the day of and overall I was happy...but I wanted to be very honest with this review to help you out.
I went by myself to my trial. Instantly I felt like I walked into my good friends business. I was so comfortable!! I brought a few pictures of ideas and in a couple of hours I walk...
ed out looking the way I wanted to for the big day. They really focus on what looks good in photos. When I saw the pictures they took of me after the trial I was blown away even more. Im really looking forward to the morning of and having a blast with the "In Style Down the Aisle" ladies. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
