Crystal and Kelly were a true dream team for my wedding day. From my trial through my wedding day, they made me feel so beautiful! They listened and perfectly executed everything I wanted for my hair and makeup look, were fun to talk to, and were super professional! My bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law were blown away with their work. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you Larissa Lake and Co!
I can’t thank Kelly & Crystal enough for how amazing my bridal party and family looked on our wedding day! They were so amazing to work with, helped everyone feel their very best and was so personable and comforting on such an emotional day! Everyone’s hair and makeup looked beautiful and everyone truly felt their very best because of them. Highly recommend to any bride! The whole salon is incredible! The only place I go for hair and my facials 🥰
Using Larissa Lake & Co. was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! From the trials to the day of, their stylists knew exactly what I was asking for. On the day of the wedding, Crystal, Kelly, and Sam were nothing short of amazing. They got all the girls ready in time, perfected everyone's vision, and were a calm presence. Everyone's hair/makeup lasted all night long as well (It was a very hot, humid summer day). Additionally, their prices were just in the range I was looking for, and seeing the outcome, I would have gladly paid more. I couldn't be happier with their work. I could not recommend Larissa Lake & Co. enough!
I am so thankful I stumbled across the sweetest ladies from Larissa Lake: Crystal and Ashlyn. They did the most beautiful job, I teared up when I looked in the mirror. My hair and makeup stayed perfect ALL NIGHT; even through all the emotions!
My bridal party and I were absolutely thrilled with our hair and make-up!! Larissa (hair) and Ashlyn (make-up) listened to each of our style preferences and surpassed all expectations. We were all looking for “soft glam” and felt our make-up looked so natural!! We had a variety of hair style requests, which came out perfectly across the board too!! Highly recommend Larissa and Ashlyn as a team for future brides and bridal parties. Their timeliness, knowledge, skills, and professionalism are unmatched!
The whole team is amazing!! My fiancé and I started getting facials with Sam leading up to the wedding and our skin looked great. Viktoriia did a fantastic job with our make up. Both my mom and mother in law were a little nervous as they had never had make up done before. Viktoriia listened to both of them and every little detail they wanted changed and both were so happy with how it turned out. I started seeing Crystal to have my hair done leading up to my hair trial and the color was fantastic and gave my style the perfect dimension. She did great and was so quick with everyone’s hair that ranged from super thick, to really curly, to very fine. My hair and make up turned out better than I could have imagined and held up great all day/night despite the hot, humid weather and thunderstorms. Thank you all for making us look so great!
My wedding hair and makeup were exceptional. I loved everything about it and felt like a princess on my day. I worked with Lexi, and she was absolutely the sweetest and most talented!! My bridal party also had nothing but wonderful things to say about their hair and makeup from the day. And they looked BEAUTIFUL!!
I had Emily V for hair and Christina for makeup. Emily did an amazing job. I showed her a photo with my vision and she recreated it beautifully. Christina also did an amazing job! I was nervous about skin matching for me and my girls, but she did all of our makeup perfectly. The makeup and hair stayed in place all night! I highly recommend Larissa Lake!
I had Crystal as my hairstylist and Ashlyn for my makeup for my June 2023 wedding. They were amazing and are so talented! All of my girls looked gorgeous and I couldn't have been happier with my bridal look. They are truly the dream team and I recommend them to everyone I know getting married.
There are not enough words to express how wonderful it was to work with Kelly and Brittany for my wedding day hair and makeup! They are truly the best of the best! They each took my vision and went above and beyond to make me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. Each member of my bridal party looked and felt amazing thanks to Kelly and Brittany’s talent and ability to enhance everyone’s natural features. They patiently listened to everyone’s preferences in order to make us all feel and look beautiful. I am so grateful for their attention to detail, as they stayed past their allotted time to provide quick touch ups before we left for the ceremony. Our hair and makeup lasted all day and night, even with plenty of dancing! I highly recommend working with Kelly and Brittany!
The entire team at Larissa Lake and Co has been a pleasure to work with throughout this process. They have all been incredibly patient with me and the many questions I asked.
Allie, Lexi, and Sam were an absolute pleasure to work with on the big day! The girls and I felt so beautiful and we have you all to thank for that! From the trial to the actual day, Allie and Lexi listened to the feedback I provided and absolutely delivered exactly what I was looking for and envisioned for my wedding day. I can’t thank you all enough for capturing my vision and making me look my best while still feeling like my regular self. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
THE BEST! Everyone loved both their hair and makeup and looked SO natural but glam! Highly recommend!!
I can’t say enough about Larissa and her team! Larissa was the absolute sweetest the first time we met and made me and all of my girls feel so special! Larissa, Ashlyn, and Jillian were all phenomenal. They listened to each person and made sure everyone felt their absolute best! They were on time, professional, and exceptionally talented. A few of my bridesmaids work in the wedding makeup and hair industry and they were beyond thrilled with Larissa and her team. Thank you for making us all feel so special and beautiful!
These ladies are extremely talented. Lexi did my makeup and Emily did my hair. I also had Brittany do my spray tan a couple days before! I can’t get over how beautiful I felt and looked the whole time. It is so important for a bride to feel beautiful so don’t take any risks and choose the BEST ladies ever at Larissa lake and co! We also had Ally and Ashley and all 4 of these ladies successfully made almost 20 ladies (including 4 mini ladies) look and feel absolutely beautiful. I have NEVER have been in a wedding where every single bridesmaid is absolutely obsessed with the way their hair and makeup came out!! THANK YOU!!!!
I absolutely loved working with Larissa Lake & Co! I had a group of 9: 6 bridesmaids, myself, my mom, and my MIL. Everyone got hair, makeup, and lashes done. We had Marissa for hair, Kelly for makeup, and Natalie did both hair and makeup. As a curly girl who wanted to keep my natural curls for the day of, it was super important to me to have an artist who was knowledgeable about styling curly hair and using extensions. Marissa KILLED it!! Kelly and Natalie were both incredible as well, everyone was happy! We all looked like slightly more glammed-up versions of ourselves, which is what we wanted and requested. My mom and I had some small feedback based on our trials, and Kelly and Marissa absolutely nailed what we were looking for. The salon was responsive to emails and phone calls about scheduling trials, and the team was prompt to arrive and had us all ready exactly on time (they did 9 of us in under 4 hours!). Their prices were midrange for the area but the quality of their work was equivalent to some higher-end salons I looked into. I kind of dragged my feet on choosing a salon because it felt like a huge decision (and financial commitment) but I am so happy I went with Larissa Lake!
Our beauty team from Larissa Lake was fabulous!! They were so easy to work with, and I was amazed at how quickly and thoroughly they worked. They traveled to our hotel where we got ready, and brought everything they needed with them. They did a great job with ladies of every age, and made everyone feel so beautiful. My hair and makeup stayed all day and night!! Thank you so much ladies!!
My bridal team and myself had the pleasure of working with Olivia for makeup and MaJenta for hair. They were absolutely amazing, and everyone felt and looked beautiful! When I had my hair and makeup trial it was a great way to meet them and communicate my wants. But during my wedding day, they certainly delivered! They followed my wedding day timeline and we were ready right on time. They made me feel so beautiful and I wouldn't want anyone else to be a part of our day. Thank you so much!
I can’t thank the ladies at Larissa Lake & Co enough for the amazing work they did for myself and my bridal party! I felt the SO confident and beautiful on my wedding day. Brittany and Emily were so kind and down to earth. We received so many compliments about my hair and make up as well as the others in my bridal party. I would recommend them to anyone!
I booked Marissa and Olivia for my wedding on 9/2/2022 and I wish I could give these ladies 10 stars! If you're looking for the best of the best, look no further than Larissa Lake & Co! Marissa and Olivia did the hair and make-up for myself and my bridesmaids and they outdid themselves. Not only making me feel and look beautiful, but my girls as well. Every single one of them loved how their hair and make-up came out. Marissa and Olivia are both incredible artist and are very meticulous with their work. I can't thank Marissa and Olivia enough for everything they did for me and my bridal party and I can't recommend these talented ladies enough!!
I booked Crystal & Ashlyn for my wedding hair & makeup, and they completely blew me away! They are such incredible artists, made me look and feel my absolute best, and are so much fun to work with. I still look back at our photos/videos and can't believe how stunning my hair & makeup were, and how well they held up throughout the whole day/night!
Crystal & Ashlyn also did hair & makeup for the moms & sisters, and everyone looked gorgeous! Every single one of them was so happy with how theirs came out, which I can vouch (from being in many weddings) is never the case.
I can't recommend these talented ladies enough!!
Marissa and Brittany were absolutely amazing! Myself and my bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning! Their bridal package is worth it and you see the quality that their salon and services brings on your day. The girls go out of their way and although I did not have a makeup chair, Brittany did not disappoint and brought one from her own house after checking in with me. Talk about customer service!
The day before, I came in for my rehersal hair and makeup done which was done by Larissa herself and Marissa. I highly recommend doing this as you’re so close to your day, you can help figure out better what you want on your wedding in addition to the trial.
I knew rain was in my forecast so I was able to switch my hair style with ease and Marissa helped give me that half up/half down look being put up!
From the beginning, even if you had issues with anything, they let you come back for another trial which they did when my makeup was a bit too much on the natural side, which was my own original direction.
I am glad I went and glammed out!!
Only disappointment I had (not the girls fault) is that I added people about a month later to my contract. When I paid in advance for the services as I did not want to pay anything the day of except for gratuity and extras, I found out that they only billed me for my original contract amount at the time I paid and not the revised one. When I later on lost a bridesmaid, I was told I could not remove but only add so I ended up not only paying for someone I no longer had (7 months prior to the wedding) but was inconvenienced by having to scramble through cash I luckily had on the side to make up for the extra people I added which I thought was satisfied 2 months prior when I came in for my trial.
No one called to review if I owed anything the day before but just an email outlining that the tip would be 20% plus the extras and what to have the day of such as makeup chairs etc. It would’ve been nice for someone to tell me what I would’ve owed prior to extras to help ease the stress rather than the poor girls having to be cashiers on a very eventful day where you don’t want any extra stress. My feedback is hopefully to help the office improve the process for other brides in the future as well as for their staff.
I still plan on coming here, especially for the facials despite living over 50 miles away.
Thank you for helping me shine on my big day!
I worked with Ashlyn and Crystal for my wedding and they are clearly world class professionals! My bridesmaids, my mom, and myself were all so impressed with the quality of their work and how efficiently they worked the day of our wedding as well. The hair styles and make-up were done fast and stayed in-tact all day and all night. At midnight, everybody still looked like they had just gotten their hair and make-up done. Crystal was super accommodating when it came to helping me pick out hair extensions for the wedding and Ashlyn remembered the small couple of things I wanted to change with my make-up from the trial to the day of my wedding and executed flawlessly!! We all could not have been happier!
I found Larissa Lake & Co. through our photographer. The team is so kind and patient, super knowledgeable about their craft, and cares about the look they’re creating for you. I could not have been happier with Lexi, who did my hair and makeup trials, as well as my hair and makeup on the day of the wedding! Magenta joined Lexi on the wedding day to do hair for my mom and bridesmaids. They all looked so beautiful! Highly, highly recommend Larissa Lake & Co. for any beauty needs! I also went back for a spray tan trial and spray tan for my wedding day. Everything came out beautiful!
Larissa Lake's artists are amazing! They work great in a team and helped the morning of our wedding run smoothly. Everyone is so kind and talented. They do amazing makeup and hair that lasted the whole day/night!
I would highly recommend Larissa and her staff for a fun and beautiful morning the day of the wedding!. The bride, wedding party ,and mother’s of the bride and groom, were all very happy with their hair and make up!
I could not have been happier that I chose Larissa Lake and Co for my hair and makeup the day of my wedding. From the initial inquiry process, to the hair and make-up trial to the day of, it couldn't have been a more seamless process. Since I was having a smaller wedding and I was the only one with hair and make-up, and then there were only 3 others for hair, Olivia was the only artist assigned to our wedding. During my trial, we talked about and tried out, exactly what I was looking for, for both hair and make-up, and she blew it out of the water. I couldn't have been happier to have her with us on the day of our wedding! I would highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a hair or make-up artist for their upcoming event or wedding!
I could not have asked for a more efficient team on the day of for my large group we were all very happy with our hair and makeup (makeup artist for me: Ashlyn, hair artist for me: Marissa). I was very specific about what I wanted for makeup and I was so nervous about someone else doing my makeup because I have some knowledge myself but didn't want to do my own on my wedding day. Ashlyn was a really good listener and I was so happy with my trial and my makeup with her that day! Ashlyn also did my brows in advance. I also have very fine hair and Marissa really helped me achieve the look I was going for, assisted me in determining different options and helped me achieve volume with my updo.
I also did the fire & ice facial with Maria as well as defuzzing (dermaplaning) and this was really helpful!
If I could say anything that didn't go well, I originally had a different makeup artist and my trial went very poorly, so I switched. I was SO happy that I found Ashlyn instead!
I heard of Larissa Lake and Co. through a friend and immediately fell in love. They worked with me through covid changes, fit me in for a trial and made me feel like an absolute queen on my wedding day. 10/10 recommend! Special shout out to Kelley and Crystal!
I truly cannot recommend Larissa Lake and Co. enough for their pre-wedding prep and day-of glam! Maria worked with me for months on skincare and provided the best facials and lash lifts leading up to the day. Not only did Natalie create the perfect color blonde for my hair prior to my wedding, she also gave me the most gorgeous wedding day makeup. Crystal is extremely talented at styling hair and my wedding day look exceeded my expectations. Both Crystal and Natalie were professional, efficient, kind and fun to work with on my wedding day. They gave each woman in my bridal party a unique look. We all felt our absolute best and so beautiful thanks to them. If you’re looking for a passionate, organized and experienced hair and makeup team, look no further. Natalie, Crystal and Maria, thank you for going above and beyond to create my dream wedding glam! The best decision I made during our engagement was choosing Larissa Lake & Co.
Choosing Larissa Lake & Co as my wedding beauty team was, without a doubt, a decision I cannot recommend highly enough!
I was blessed to have Crystal as my hair stylist for BOTH my small wedding in December and my big celebration in July. Crystal is professional, genuine and beyond talented at what she does. Her attention to detail is outstanding, as she’s constantly going above and beyond to make sure you feel beautiful.
In July, with a larger group, Olivia and Ashlyn joined Crystal for the day. All three artists were incredibly skillful, applying their expertise so that it reflected the visions we’d shared with them and doing so in a way that made the entire process enjoyable! They were also flawlessly punctual, keeping right on schedule, and even provided touch-ups before leaving! My mom, mother-in-law and bridesmaids were also so happy with how their hair and makeup looked, which is all the more impressive given they each requested distinctly unique styles.
Thank you so much Larissa Lake & Co!

All I can say is… WOW! My hair and makeup came out FLAWLESS on the big day, along with my bridal party. Ashlyn and Kristyn were professional, fun, and extremely talented! My hair and makeup trial experiences also were fantastic. Ashlyn was able to incorporate my makeup along with hers to create my dream look and Kristyn gave me what I did not even know I wanted! My pictures came back looking incredible, and I could not recommend their services more! In addition, I had my hair cut and colored twice at their salon, and it was WORTH the over an hour drive!
Brittany is an actual angel. We live in NY and had a tiny window of time on one specific day to get a make up trial done. She opened the salon early so I could come in, so right from the start I knew she was who I wanted even before experiencing her talent.
The day of our wedding she was cool, calm and friendly. Exactly the energy you want to be around when you’re trying to get 8 people and a bride ready. Everyone looked beautiful and loved their make up because she listened to EXACTLY what WE wanted. Do not hesitate for one second if you are considering Brittany to take care of your wedding. She was the best and we could not have been more happy.
Larissa and Lauren did such an amazing job on my 6/12/21 wedding day in Newport, RI. I had gone for two trials before the wedding and they were very accommodating to my needs and changes. They seamlessly did 9 hair and 9 makeup and completed it earlier than expected. Who doesn’t love extra time on their wedding day? I would 100% recommend them to any bridal party. Larissa and Lauren were awesome and down to earth - they even took part of my Tik Tok fun :) 10/10
I am SO happy that I hired Larissa Lake to do my wedding hair and makeup. Kelly and Olivia were such a pleasure to work with during my trials and on wedding day.
I was nervous about my hair because I am very curly and prone to frizz, and humidity always gets the best of me. Olivia worked with me on two separate hair trials to find the PERFECT style for me which held up beautifully all night long despite the humid June weather.
Kelly and Olivia brought the energy and positive vibes on wedding morning and were so much fun to have around while me and my bridesmaids were getting ready. I highly recommend this dream team!
I also recommend getting your pre-wedding facials from Maria. I had monthly HydraFacials for three months before the wedding and was absolutely glowing on the big day. All three of these ladies had me feeling so pretty on my wedding day!
I do NOT recommend trying to cover your tattoos. Kelly did a beautiful job applying the tattoo coverage makeup, but it unfortunately rubbed off onto my wedding dress within an hour.
A few comments on working with Larissa Lake as a company: make sure to pay close attention when filling out the services agreement. Once you sign, you can’t remove any services. I accidentally indicated we would have 8 girls getting hair and makeup when we in fact only had 7 (I counted myself twice). This was totally my error, but was frustrated to learn that I couldn’t adjust the count when I realized my mistake a few months before the wedding. I ended up paying for that extra person even though no service was rendered.
All in all, I am only giving 4 stars out of 5 due to the tattoo makeup fiasco and the frustration with the contract but I will always recommend LL to anyone who is looking for wedding hair & makeup artists!
Larissa & her team did such a wonderful job on my wedding last weekend! Everyone’s hair and makeup looked beautiful. They efficiently got through 11 ladies seamlessly! Can’t recommend Larissa’s team for your wedding day!
The ladies from Larissa Lake were incredible! Kristyn, the bridal coordinator, was so easy to work with. She responded to all communication so quickly and was so flexible. My mother-in-law called me the week before the wedding asking to have her hair and makeup done and they were so accommodating by adding her to their schedule. Olivia and Natalie were the total dream team! When I went to the salon for my trial they did such an amazing job, but did an even better job (which I didn’t think was possible) for the actual wedding day! They were efficient with their time and all of my bridesmaids were so happy with the way their hair and makeup turned out. They did buns, half up styles, and full down styles and each one looked incredible. They are hands down the best!!
They were so accommodating to every request I made and did an amazing job on my and my bridesmaids hair and makeup. Crystal did my hair and Brittany did my makeup. I gave them both an idea of what I wanted and they completely exceeded my expectations and helped me feel beautiful on my wedding day. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
I used Larissa Lake & Co. for my April 9th Wedding. They were nothing but the best from the initial booking, to date changes, to my hair trial, and finally the day of. I left my hair trial with nothing but excitement for my big day. The work Brittany and Marissa can do is absolutely amazing. Not only was my hair & makeup perfection, but all of my bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning. I would pick Larissa Lake, Brittany, and Marissa over and over again!
I hired Larissa Lake & Co. for my wedding in May and was amazed with how my hair & makeup turned out. I showed them photos and talked it over and they nailed it! I highly recommend Marissa for hair & Kelly for makeup - they are the best! Thank you ladies for making me feel so beautiful on my special day!
Kelly from Larissa Lake is absolutely amazing! When I had worked with her for my hair and makeup trial, she was nice, easy to talk to, and really paid attention to what I wanted for my wedding day look. On my wedding day, Kelly and her assistant, arrived on time and completed all of the girls’ hair and makeup earlier than expected! We actually had a little time to relax before the photographer arrived. We all looked flawless and couldn’t have been happier!! I don’t wear makeup on a day to day basis and was so worried that I wouldn’t look like myself, but Kelly made sure that I was comfortable with how everything was turning out. Best natural looking makeup I’ve ever seen!! My hair and makeup also lasted all day long and that doesn’t usually happen with curls! I can’t recommend Larissa Lake enough!
If you are looking for hair & makeup for your wedding hire this glam squad immediately!!! My bridemaids, mother, grandmothers, and my hair & makeup all came out amazing, everyone looked beautiful!! The girls were on time, efficient, and so much fun to work with!! Seriously cannot recommend this team enough, they will make you feel stunning on your wedding day!!!
The girls were great. They got their at 530 am to accommodate me and all my bridesmaids for my early ceremony. They made us look beautiful and took excellent care fo each of us. I would highly recommend Larissa Lake and will definitely use them in the future.
We originally were only going to use Larissa Lake for our wedding makeup, but after moving some money around in our budget, splurged to use them for hair too. This was truly the BEST decision! Every experience from the trial to the wedding day was perfect. Between those two dates, my initial hairstylist had left the company, The owner of the salon, Larissa, came in her place, and did such a phenomenal job recreating the trial look with the slight changes that I wanted to make! Ashlyn did a phenomenal job with my makeup, and totally got my vision of not wanting to look too "done up", but still look elegant. When my eyelash extensions were a little uncomfortable, she worked with me until they felt perfect. She even talked me off a ledge while I was having a little pre-wedding freak out! Both Larissa and Ashlyn were so sweet and everyone in the bridal party looked incredible! It's definitely a budget splurge, but I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Marissa and Emilee from Larissa Lake did an amazing job on hair and makeup! They did my hair and make up, along with the majority of our bridesmaids. We were all so happy with the final results! Marissa and Emilee are so professional, upbeat and fun, and took away a lot of the wedding day jitters with hair/makeup being stress free. Thank you so much Emilee, Marissa and the Larissa Lake team!
Crystal and Stevie from LL&Co were beyond amazing for our wedding day! From the trial to the day of, everything was beyond what I could have imagined. From my bridesmaids that wear makeup everyday to my mother-in-law who does not own any makeup or hair products, everyone loved how they turned out the day of! They can make any vision a reality, and are so fun to hang with on the morning of your wedding! Highly recommend!!
Where do I begin? These girls are simply the best! The Larissa Lake & Co team did a phenomenal job for my late August wedding - my bridesmaids, moms and myself all looked and felt beautiful thanks to Crystal, Sarah and Natalie. Crystal and I had immediately connected during my trial. She not only understood the vision I had for my bridal hair but made it come to life in the form a gorgeous boho half up/half down 'do! I, along with my wedding guests, were swooning over the creation! Sarah did an outstanding job on my makeup and successfully carried out the "natural glam" look I was going for as a bride. All the Larissa girls are so friendly, talented and personable. I can't recommend using LL&Co enough for all your wedding-day beauty needs!
Crystal and Kelly did my hair and makeup for my wedding day, in addition to my 6 bridesmaids, my mother, and my flower girl. They did so efficiently and were very friendly and enjoyable to have in our suite as we got ready. One of my bridesmaids, who has been in many weddings, said it was the first time she didn't feel like she had to redo her hair and makeup for a wedding. Crystal tweaked my hair towards the end to get it just to my liking, which I greatly appreciated. They had also done my bridal shower glam as my trial, and did an amazing job, choosing to come into work on a Sunday morning to do so. I would recommend these two to anyone getting married in the area.
The whole team at Larissa lake is incredibly professional. I had a different stylist for my makeup trial, but my day-of artist (Kyle) was a true artist. Krystin, who did my hair, made me feel like a princess. Natalie helped with makeup and made my bridesmaids look incredible.
Larissa Lake, there is no better. Larissa and her team made my wedding hair and makeup dreams come true for my big day. They were one of the first things I booked when planning my wedding and I never once thought about it again until my trial. They are so crazy talented that you don’t need to worry! Thank you for making wedding planning easier, and of course for making my bridal party and myself look like superstars for my big day! You rock!
Simply the best! Thank you for creating such beautiful looks for all of us! Ashlyn and Sara are top notch stylists!
The entire team at Larissa Lake is beyond amazing. From the hair trials, to spray tans and spa treatments I had the best experience with Larissa Lake. Kyle did my hair and my bridesmaids hair and everyone’s hair was perfect! Everything held up all day and night. He did an amazing job on my 5 year old niece / flower girl. She had trouble sitting still and he made her entire experience so much fun. Stevie did our makeup and was absolutely amazing. Everyone looked flawless and the makeup looked perfect all day and night. We received so many compliments on our hair and makeup. I couldn’t have imagined a more perfect team!
I would like to firstly give a huge shoutout to Crystal who did my hair and Sarah who did my makeup. They were so amazing with me and made me feel absolutely beautiful. And my review would probably be lower if I didn’t appreciate the incredible work these 2 did to make me feel beautiful on my wedding day- so I stuck to my stars rating based on overall experience
Overall, Larissa lake’s stylists did a wonderful job on my wedding day. I had 8 bridesmaids and 2 mothers that had services done as well. All of the stylists were very nice and friendly. There were a couple things that prevented me from scoring 5 stars. One is that my 6 year old niece who was a flower girl- was upcharged as a junior bridesmaids without my knowledge- none of the stylists had even asked me about it- I’ve been told I will be getting s refund for this- but that was over 2 weeks ago and I haven’t received it.
Another is the fact that I had so many girls, and had to pay quite a bit for them to send an extra stylist so that we didn’t have to start 10 hours before my ceremony. We also got behind in schedule because many girls needed touch ups on their hair- and one of my girls had to have hers completely redone because it fell out so fast. Another turn off was that when they were calculating tips (which they charge an automatic 20% ) they needed everything down to the PENNIES. This seemed outrageous for how much we were already paying - and left many of my girls frustrated. I ended up covering the remaining balance since many of my girls didn’t expect to pay so much the day of. As incredible as we all looked, I wish I had really looked into their details before booking them. $385 for the bride, $100 for hair trial, $100 for makeup trial, tips, $240 for traveling 25 minutes!, covering balance equaled to well over $1000 for me to dish out.
I am so happy I chose Larissa Lake for hair and makeup on my wedding day! I did lots of research on Instagram prior to finding Larissa Lake’s page and I knew immediately I had to use them for my wedding. All of my bridesmaids looked stunning and loved their looks as well. Special thanks to Crystal and Kelly!!
I loved working with Chantel and Kelly! They made my bridesmaids and mom look beautiful and went above and beyond to make my wedding vision come true! Chantel worked her magic on my thin, straight hair to make me look like the boho princess I dreamed of. I could not have asked for a better beauty team. They were so flexible and fun to work with. The morning of my wedding went smoothly and effortlessly with the help of these ladies.
I cannot recommend Larissa Lake highly enough. I've been in a number of weddings and not once has EVERY bridesmaid + bride and MOB all look and feel SO beautiful on the first try.
Stephanie and Ashlyn were PERFECT. I was so nervous that I wouldn't look and feel my best and i had NO comments, feedback or concerns on ANY ELEMENT of my final look. I looked in the mirror and simply said, "yes".
While it might not seem like the most important element of your day, feeling your best thanks to the way you look is invaluable.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I had a lot of people recommend doing a makeup trial, however I ended up having emergency surgery 2 weeks before my wedding and had to cancel the trial. That being said, I went into my wedding a little blind on makeup, and I couldn't be more ecstatic with how incredible everyone's makeup turned out!!! I love love loveeee Sarah G, she was the perfect personality for our group of ladies on the wedding day. Everyone was relaxed, she was helpful with everyone's styles, and the makeup looked phenomenal. You won't be disappointed!
Kristyn and Kelly made me and my bridesmaids look so beautiful!! I don’t wear much makeup so I was nervous about finding a makeup artist that would make me look like myself but Kelly did it!!! I felt so natural but have never felt more beautiful! Kristyn made my hair look exactly like the photos I showed her and the curls held all day! My entire bridal party loved how their services came out as well! They were very responsive, prompt and an absolute pleasure to work with!
Kristyn and Kelly from Larissa Lake & Co were so key in making the morning of my wedding run smoothly. I am very hesitant about wearing my hair up but wanted to due to the style of my dress- Kristyn was incredibly helpful in hearing my like and dislikes and then creating the perfect look for me. Kelly's makeup had me feeling like the most beautiful version of myself I could have all day long. I don't typically wear a lot of makeup and wanted a balance of feeling like myself still, but also embracing a day of going a little more glamorous than I typically would- and Kelly absolutely nailed it. On top of this, both women were friendly, easy to talk to, professional, and kind. They made my bridesmaids look and feel amazing as well. One of my bridesmaids was pretty sick day of the wedding and made the point to tell me how awesome the two of them made her not only look, but feel. These two are amazing!
Ashlyn and Kristyn were the best! Both listened to the wants and needs of my bridal party and really took the time to tweek and change anything to ensure we all felt beautiful! They really know what they’re doing and are an amazing team to work with. I will continue to see them for all my hair needs post wedding. You won’t be disappointed when booking the Larissa Lake team!!
On the artistic side, Larissa Lake and Co. were just fantastic! I worked with Larissa for my hair and make-up, and Judy and Lauren worked on my bridesmaids. Everyone came out looking stunning, and I have to say I never felt or looked more beautiful. At the trial Larissa worked with me to ensure that my day-of look was everything I wanted and that I looked elegant and beautiful, but not overly made-up or fake. The day of the wedding, she did an amazing job and my make-up and hair were flawless throughout the night. She was also really fun and talkative, which helped alleviate last-minute jitters. Judy and Lauren were also very talented and fun, and every one of my bridesmaids looked gorgeous.
However, I could only give 4 stars because the administrative side is highly disorganized. I put down a deposit, but we made some changes in the weeks leading up to the wedding (added an artist, added some services) and the remainder had to be paid the day of the wedding - I had 10 women getting hair and make-up done, so it was a large bill. I contacted the salon about a dozen times in the lead-up to the wedding to try to get a final quote so I could pay them the correct amount - Kristyn the wedding coordinator would send me to the front desk, the front desk would send me back to Kristyn, I called and e-mailed multiple times, and just wasn't getting any answers. Finally I went in person to get the final quote from the front desk - and after all that, it turned out the amount they gave me was incorrect! So just hours before my first look, my matron of honor and bridesmaids had to scramble to figure this all out and pay the extra difference - they tried to keep me out of it but I knew there was something wrong, and it just added completely unnecessary stress on my wedding day.
If I had to do it all over again - I would 100% book Larissa Lake and Co. because the artists are amazing, but I would state up front before I booked that I would need the final quote in writing, signed by Kristyn, a week before the wedding. This way you get all the beauty, none of the stress.
The stylists and makeup artists themselv s are really great. Super friendly and talented. Myself and my bridesmaids loved our hair and make up so mission accomplished. My only issues were that they only sent one hairstylist and one makeup artist for 8 people including myself so they had us start at 10am when we didn’t need to be ready until 4:30pm which resulted in the first few girls needing to touch up their hair and makeup prior to heading to the ceremony. No biggie though. My main issue with LL & co was with their administrative side of things. It seemed very disorganized from the beginning and as a bride that can be unsettling. The office manager, Kystyn, asked me two times, weeks after I had paid my deposit if I had paid it and her overall communications where clear that she wasn’t very detail oriented. Also, a week before my wedding I still hadn’t heard back about a timeline for starting so I had to reach out and then didn’t hear back until 4 days before my wedding and she had failed to make corrections. Now on the day of my wedding I had a lot going on and the girls had miscalculated their final worksheet and not double checking I ended up overpaying by $350. Larissa did end up refunding me and no issues there, everyone makes mistakes, but it did again take quite a few back and forth emails wit Krystyn to get her to really look at the details and understand what had happened. Overall, the stylists are fantastic and the end product of your wedding hair and makeup is good, but Larissa should probably get a real office mamanger.
For my wedding day, I searched high and low for a stylist to give me the most perfect textured bridal bun. After going through many stylists, I finally went for a trial with Larissa. Immediately, I knew she was the one to do my hair on the most special day of my life.
Booking Larissa over a year in advance, I visited her beautiful salon numerous times to perfect both my wedding look, wedding color, and brows. Her entire team is beyond amazing, and truly help you perfect your entire look through both honesty and expertise.
On the day of my wedding, both Larissa and Crystal worked wonders. Together they did the hair of my 8 bridesmaids, myself, and my flower girl. They were prompt, professional, and on schedule the entire time. To say that my bridal party looked stunning is an understatement. Everyone’s hair, of varying lengths, colors, textures, and styles, looked flawless and held the entire night. For my wedding hair, Larissa made a decision to create a more elegant/sleek bun then we had originally trialed for. Trusting her, we went for it and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I looked exactly how I wanted to on my wedding day - a classic and elegant bride. I cannot thank Larissa, Crystal, and the entire LL team enough for all that they did for me the year leading up to my wedding, and on my wedding day. They are truly so talented at what they do. I would recommend them to any bride and girl in a heartbeat!
Nicole and Shauntelle were absolutely amazing during my trial for hair and makeup, as well as the day of. They were incredibly professional, and super talented. Worth every penny, would definitely recommend Larissa Lake & Co. to any bride who wants picture perfect hair and makeup!
I found Larissa Lake and Co on Instagram when searching for hair and makeup artists for my wedding day. To say I was incredibly happy with the results is not enough. I signed up for the signature bridal package, so I had an included facial in the package and had my hair and makeup trial in December. The trial went great, with Rachel (hair) and Natalie (makeup), making changes that I requested as we moved along. I had my facial (which I opted to upgrade) two weeks before my wedding, which was a great way to relax during a highly stressful period of wedding planning! Also, my skin looked so clean and fresh after the facial!
On the wedding day, Rachel and Natalie arrived promptly to my wedding suite ready to glam up myself, four bridesmaids and my mom. We had a great morning filled with a lot of talking and laughing. Our hair and makeup looked flawless the entire day! All of my girls and I were joking at the end of the night that our makeup looked as good at 11:30pm as it did at 11:30 that morning. They listened to each girl's wants and needs and executed it beautifully. As the bride, I loved my entire look! My makeup popped in the photos and I felt like the best version of myself on one of the biggest days of my life. Thank you to both Rachel and Natalie for being so amazing!
The day of make-up and hair for myself, bridesmaids and mothers came out absolutely fantastic. There is no doubt that the team at Larissa Lake is highly talented. They arrived on time and were very quick, getting us all done with plenty of time! We enjoyed our makeup artist and hair stylist very much. Leading up to the wedding, I did find it somewhat difficult to get answers/call backs, etc. Only one person can answer questions on bridal beauty, so that makes things difficult and can be slow. They charge a lot for their services and as such I would think service should be top notch from start to finish. It was fairly difficult arranging for out-of town trials, especially has I had to make 2 trips given my first hair trial was cancelled right before I got there. That being said, they did a great job when it mattered, but the lead-up to the wedding was not as great as it could have been compared to the other vendors I worked with (especially for the price you pay).
Kelly and Rachel did a phenomenal job with the hair and makeup on my wedding day, and they were so fun to spend the day with! Kristen at Larissa Lake was so helpful setting everything up and answering all of my questions leading up to the big day. I live out of state so I had no clue who to hire for my hair and makeup, but I'm so thankful I found them. They are the best!
Larissa and her team are extraordinarily talented. On my wedding day, my mom, mother-in-law, bridesmaids, and myself all could not have been happier with our hair and makeup! They effortlessly made us look like the best versions of ourselves, all the while being so fun to be around. I would recommend Larissa and her team in a heartbeat! They were professional, knowledgeable, and so so sweet! I have never felt so beautiful in my own skin--and I owe that to their wonderful team!
Larissa, Kelsey, Mersida, and Chantelle made my entire wedding party look and feel amazing! They have skills that are beyond 5 stars! All night every member of our wedding party had compliments endlessly on how amazing we all looked. They came to us and made our wedding morning prep so fun and enjoyable! Along with their amazing work they have the best personalities and had so much fun with our videographer and photographer, making all of the prep so enjoyable! Along with our day of services, Maria's hydra-facials & Sarah G's waxing services made be feel incredible before my wedding. After experiencing Larissa Lake & Co. as a bride (and bridesmaid in the past) I highly highly recommend all of their services to any future brides/families! They are the ultimate best of the best!
Larissa Lake did my hair and makeup for my wedding. They did such an incredible job. I felt absolutely gorgeous and both my hair and my makeup lasted all night long. I had seven ladies for hair and makeup plus me and every one of us was blown away with what an incredible job they did, the updos were exactly what we wanted, the makeup was perfect without feeling like you had pounds of it on. The ladies who came were wonderful, very professional and on time! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Larissa Lake!
Perfection. I don’t even know how else to describe this salon and the two girls that were assigned to do our hair and makeup. I can’t even imagine my wedding day without them. Kelly and Kristyn are the sweetest and most talented girls. I have never felt so perfectly put together in my entire life - and this was before I put on my dress! So grateful for the both of them.
Kelly and Krysten were my hair and makeup girls for my October 14 wedding. Words can’t describe how phenomenal their work is. They truly made me feel beautiful on the most important day of my life thus far. I would highly recommend them to anyone getting married or in need of beauty services.
You cannot make a better decision than choosing Larissa Lake to do your makeup for any event. Natalie & Lauren did my makeup as well as my 7 bridesmaids and mother for my September wedding in Newport. I have never seen more beauty in one room in my entire life than the room where we were getting ready the morning of my wedding. My wedding photos look like I hired models. The makeup was absolutely flawless, while looking natural and classy. It is extremely difficult to do makeup that will stand out and look stunning for photos, while not looking too overdone and dramatic in person. Larissa Lake mastered this talent effortlessly. We received endless comments all night from other people at the wedding about how naturally gorgeous we all looked. I continue to get comments daily on how incredible our photos came out, and how we literally all look like models. My girls and I have never felt more beautiful, and I cannot wait to have an excuse to work with Larissa Lake again!
The wonderful team at Larissa Lake are sure to make you feel beyond beautiful on your wedding day! Myself and my bridesmaids were all beyond happy with our hair and makeup the day of, everything was flawless. All of the girls are super talented, whatever ideas you have they can make it happen. I would highly recommend Larissa Lake and her team for your wedding day!
I have never felt more beautiful than I did on our wedding day! Larissa Lake and her team are absolutely incredible! My bridesmaids were beyond thrilled with their hair and makeup as well! I will continue to recommend Larissa Lake to anyone who is getting married, as they are the BEST!
I was recommended Larissa Lake Makeup Artist & Co. after a bad experience with another makeup artist. When I contacted Larissa, completely disappointed and skeptical after my last experience, I recognized a difference in their companies right away. Larissa was very prompt with her email responses and completely transparent with all the information she provided. I worked with Stephanie, who is very knowledgeable about her craft. On the day, Stephanie made everyone look beautiful, and I can’t thank her enough for her dedication to her clients and her professionalism.
I have so much appreciation for LLMUA &Co, they are incredibly kind and talented!! I was first introduced to Larissa and her company from being in one of my best friend's weddings about four years ago. Soon after that time I started making appointments with Larissa, she has helped to save my eyebrows! It was a wonderful experience sharing the news of my engagement with her, I had known that I wanted LLMUA & Co. for my wedding makeup and as soon as we had a date set I sent in my information. Kristyn and Kelsey were incredible for helping me with all the arrangements. Sarah is fabulous, she helped me with one last eyebrow wax and to have a sun kissed glow with the spray tan before the big day- which looked so natural!
Larissa, Sara, Sarah and Rehia were a part of our dream team that helped to make our wedding day absolutely perfect. I cannot thank them enough. They are all so nice and fun to work with. They worked incredibly well with all of our photographers and videographers, who were helping to capture the getting ready moments. I LOVED all of our makeup. My bridesmaids, mom and mother in law looked beautiful! Larissa helped to make my Carrie Underwood inspired smokey eye look and nailed it! I definitely have never felt that gorgeous before. She helped my skin to look flawless. I really liked the look of the airbrush makeup. I could not have pictured the day without the LLMUA &Co. team. I am so thankful for these women - I would highly recommend LLMUA & Co. to everyone!
This review is really late, but I wanted to make sure I got to share my amazing experience. Larissa and her team are INCREDIBLE! My makeup and hair were flawless, and despite extremely hot weather, happy tears during my ceremony, dancing for hours and my husband getting me really good with cake in my face, it stayed put ALL night. I can not recommend Larissa and her team enough, and I am so grateful for their beautiful work!
Stephanie and Rachel of Larissa Lake handled the hair + makeup on our wedding day this past June 2017, and I cannot say enough about how amazing they made everyone feel. Starting with my trial, I gave Rachel the task of figuring out the best braid! She was so patient and we tried several different braid styles before landing on the one. On the day of the wedding, I was in LOVE with my hair + makeup - it was EXACTLY how I had pictured myself on my wedding day. And my bridesmaids felt the love too, with one of my girls (who’s been in 7 weddings!) saying it was the best hair + makeup she’s ever had. My experience with the team was so great that I’m now a client at Larissa Lake, seeing Rachel for hair and just starting to see their skincare specialist, Maria, for regular facials. Their new space is so gorgeous (just like all of them!). Definitely recommend this team!
