Kristen also helped me with my skincare in the weeks leading up to the wedding, and I’m so grateful for her knowledge and support. I truly loved working with her and the whole team. Highly recommend!
Kristen, Amie, and Carrie from Montage Salon and Spa were absolutely amazing on my wedding day! Kristen did my makeup (and my bridal party’s), and she totally nailed the look I was...
going for — natural, glowing, and just the right amount of glam. She’s so talented and made everyone feel beautiful while still looking like themselves.
Amie and Carrie were equally incredible with hair. They were so fun to be around and made the whole getting-ready process feel relaxed and joyful. They listened to what each of us wanted and totally delivered — every style looked gorgeous and held up all day (and night!) through dancing, hugs, and happy tears.
The whole team was on time, super professional, and just genuinely lovely to spend the morning with. They felt like part of the celebration and helped make the day extra special. I can’t recommend Kristen, Amie, and Carrie enough — they are the dream team!
Kristen and her team of stylists and makeup artists are amazing. When I did my hair and makeup trial in July they knocked it out of the park based on my inspiration photos. This p...
ast weekend for my wedding they did a spectacular job on my hair and makeup, 4 bridesmaids, 2 jr. bridesmaids, 2 flower girls, mother of the bride, and mother of the groom. We all felt amazing and beautiful on this special day.

s well as all the details for the day of! Montage did hair and makeup for myself as well as my 4 bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law! Kristen, Amie, Emily, Christina, and Megan were all professional, friendly, and talented! Everyone looked absolutely stunning, and the hair and makeup lasted all day and night, even with all of the rain!

p! The make up looked super natural and looked amazing in pictures. The hair and make up lasted all day. They made the hair and make up trial super fun and were flexible with our schedule. Cannot recommend Montage and their team enough!!
I would highly recommend using montage salon your wedding hair & makeup stylists. All of the girls were amazing & talented artists and we looked stunning.
I worked with Kristen a...
nd was very impressed by her responsive communication, and her ability to accommodate & do whatever was requested. She was very attentive and nailed every detail. She offered helpful insight on the whole planning process. Everything was SO well organized in the months leading up to the wedding that it made for a very smooth & relaxing getting ready experience!
All of the bridesmaids were able to work with their stylist to achieve their desired look, and the stylist were able to accommodate everyone. I had 17 ladies over the course of the morning getting ready and the artists were on time the entire morning.
I couldn't have hoped for a better experience working with Kristen & the entire Montage Salon artists. Kristen made a significant effort in wanting me to feel comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day. You will not be disappointed by choosing this salon!
I cannot say enough good things about Montage Salon & Spa. Amie and Kristen did my hair and make up for my wedding day, and I felt like an absolute princess. Not only that, but whe...

to make all the girls beautiful and on time. They were sweet and receptive to everyone in what they had in mind with their hair. My hair was stunning Amy did an amazing job! I absolutely loved my makeup and Kristen was perfect at making my makeup natural. I don’t typically wear make up and she did everything to making me feel comfortable and beautiful. She even did research on some better lashes for me because I had sensitive eyes. They all wanted me to feel comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day! I would recommend this stunning team to anyone getting married!
Amazing job!! I worked with Kristen (makeup) and Aime (hair), from the trial to the traveling to us for the morning of the wedding day they were incredible! They were ahead of sche...
dule the whole morning, accommodating, and we all looked fabulous! Aime got ahead of schedule and was able to spend as much time on my hair as she wanted - and she killed it! She focused on every curl, wanting everything to be perfect for me and it was!! 12 hours later and my hair still looked the same as it did when she finished - truly amazing!
Montage did the hair and makeup for me and 10 bridesmaids / parents for my wedding. Each girl looked more beautiful than the last! Kristen was incredibly communicative and helpful ...
with scheduling. We had to make a few changes throughout and she was always so flexible. Amie did amazing with my hair and while I didn't work directly with Claudia, she did a great job on my bridesmaids' hair as well.
To get through that many girls, we started at 8am, had 1 makeup artist, 2 hair stylists, and we were ready to start pics at about 12:30p.
I loved the natural but glam look that Kristen accomplished with my makeup. And it stayed on very well! Through more than 12 hours of sweating, dancing, crying, and everything else, I still looked pretty damn good by the end of it. To Amie's credit, my hair held for the entire day too. I included a pic that I took at like 12:30am (the group shot) to show just how well everything held.
Kristen and April (our makeup artist) did a beautiful job on wedding makeup for our whole bridal party! I was able to send photos about what I wanted and they were very responsive ...
about making us look our best! My only qualm was that I talked mostly to Kristen but on the day of, my artist did not seem to have gotten the photo of the changes I wanted after my trial makeup so I had to explain day-of. Was a minor issue though!
Montage Salon & Spa was amazing! Kristen, Amie, and Carrie did the best job. The hair and makeup trial was completely worth it! I was not sure about the style during the trial but ...
for the day of they were able to make changes so it was the hair style I had envisioned. Kristen did a great job on my makeup and was actually able to give me some skin care tips to help with my acne which was an unexpected bonus. Any acne or scar marks I had were covered and barely noticeable in person and in pictures, so that was a huge plus. The morning of the wedding, the montage team came to our venue and did myself, my bridesmaids, the mothers, and my grandmother. And despite all these people, they were quick, efficient, and made everyone look great! They were also able to switch around the schedule as needed if some people were pulled away, so it was very flexible. They were so friendly and played some music for us as well. I highly recommend Montage!!

Montage & Kristen were awesome! They did such a great job with my hair as well as all 5 of my bridesmaids hair. My sister has very thin hair, and my sister-in-law very thick hair, ...
and both of their curls held all night. My MOH has natural hair and they also did a great job with her! They worked with me on my changes from our trial to make sure I was happy with my hair and makeup.
Kristen and her team are truly professionals! We had 2 makeup artists and 3 hair stylists for 13 ladies the day of my wedding. Kristen is quicker than most makeup artists and she d...
oes a FANTASTIC job! The makeup looked incredible and stayed on all day! My mom & mother in law also loved their hair & makeup!! Kristen creates a schedule for the day of and she is very organized and great to work with. I can’t say enough about her and her team. I was extremely pleased with how their work turned out on every one of my ladies!
Kristen was so awesome to work with leading up to the wedding and day of. I had to make a few changes in regards to our day of timeline a few times and she was responsive and made...
the changes very quickly! Kristen did my makeup and I trusted her experience to help guide me as to what I wanted for my wedding day and it turned out great. Amie was my hair stylist and she did great too! I showed Amie a picture at my trial and she nailed it and it turned out perfect on my wedding day.
I booked Montage for my wedding day on 5/29/22 and am so glad I did! April did both my hair and makeup and my bridesmaids' makeup and Chelsi was our hair stylist for the bridesmaid...

l like they looked their best while listening to what each individual was looking for. Beyond her talent, Kristen is organized and quick to respond while planning for your big day. Seriously, book with the Montage Salon, you won’t regret it!
We were very happy with our hair and makeup services from Montage. Kristen did a great job arranging the schedule ahead of time so everyone knew when they needed to be ready. We ha...
d 9 people getting hair and makeup done, and Montage was efficient but maintained their quality throughout. Most of the girls' hair did fall out by the end of the night- whether this is a testament to how much they danced, or their need for more hairspray- I don't know. Regardless, I would highly recommend Montage for event hair and makeup. They made up look beautiful without making us look fake.
Kristen and the girls from Montage were absolutely amazing! I loved my makeup and hair for my wedding it was exactly what I had envisioned. Kristen was great to work with and made ...
me feel so relaxed during this whole process. I can't thank them enough for making me and my girls look amazing for my big day!
Look no further for your wedding day beauty services! I chose the Montage team for my wedding 10 years ago and I still see them almost every other week! Carrie knows my hair better...
than any other stylist I’ve ever known. Kristen has become more than a vendor, she is a great friend with whom I share so many laughs and memories. This team goes above and beyond their role to make you feel like true royalty on your wedding day.
Everyone looked beautiful when Kristen and her team was done! Working with Kristen was great because she understood what everyone wanted for their makeup and she is very friendly....
The women who don't normally wear makeup felt comfortable and beautiful that day. This was a great team for our wedding.
Montage was perfect - - I had lost my hair and makeup person 6 weeks to the wedding, and Kristen came to the rescue. She asked questions and listened to me with patience in the tri...
al even though I was flustered and and less than articulate. On the big day, everyone looked beautiful, Kristen and her team arrived early and had everyone done in time. They were a calm presence in our hectic day! Cannot reccomend them enough.
THANK YOU Kristen, April, and Claudia!!!
Kristen and team were amazing! We have received so many compliments, and all of our hair/makeup lasted the whole night (even after rain and 90° weather)

p by about 5 hours due to the weather. Kristin and her team didn’t hesitate for a second, and she completely was able to rearrange things to squeeze me in for both my hair and makeup that day, and it looked wonderful. After that I knew I had to have them for my wedding day, and they were absolutely amazing. They made everyone feel at ease getting their hair/makeup done despite the crazy going on with COVID, and all of it turned out absolutely beautiful. There was no stress on the wedding day getting about 8 people ready, and they were so sweet and complimentary of everyone. They went above and beyond to make our day perfect and everything turned out perfect and stayed perfect from 6 am to 11pm! I’m so happy I chose them!!
I had the best experience with Montage for my wedding day. Kristen went above and beyond to help me plan the perfect morning for family and bridal party to all get ready together, ...
and it was so easy and fun.
My hair and makeup consultation was fantastic, both Kristen and Amie got to know my preferences and what I was looking for in terms of style for the day, and I could not have been happier with the results. The salon is the perfect mix of professional and comfort, you'll feel right at home.
On the morning of the wedding, the Montage stylists and Kristen moved through our schedule seamlessly and put everyone at ease. Each person loved their hair and makeup for the day, photos looked great, and our hair and makeup stayed looking great all night long.
I can't recommend Montage enough, they are lovely to work with and you will love how you look!
As someone who only gets makeup done for weddings, I didn’t know where to start when finding a makeup artist. After a few local recommendations were unavailable on our wedding dat...
e, I found Kristen from Montage Salon on a wedding website. After looking at their website, a quick chat on the phone and some emails/texts, Kristen assured me she would be able to come to our getting ready site the day of the wedding and get 9 ladies feeling beautiful for the day. Kristen was kind and flexible when our number of ladies needing makeup changed, and it was easy to schedule a trial. On the day of, Kristen kept everyone getting ready on time with time to spare for last minute touch ups. Everyone looked and felt beautiful! I was able to give her a few things I had wanted to change from the trial and she was able to execute the look I wanted perfectly. I would recommend Kristen to anyone looking to feel beautiful for any special occasion!
My maid of honor and I had Amie and Kristen do our hair and make-up on August 30th for my wedding...they were AMAZING! We felt so beautiful and they just did a wonderful job. We ...
were done on time and had a great time getting to know them both. They are so talented! Would recommend over and over again!!!
Kristen and Katie were outstanding! They came out to our hotel before my wedding to do hair and makeup for myself and 6 bridesmaids. Everyone had a little different taste, especial...
ly for their hair, and Katie was very professional and understanding. Because we were pretty behind on time due to the bridesmaids, I felt a bit rushed for my hair, but Katie works very well under pressure! Kristen is just SO TALENTED with makeup application! She also suggested I go to her for microderm abrasion to help even out my skin before the wedding and it changed my life! I chose this salon for my wedding because of its location and good reviews, but I will continue to go to them for everyday services as well!
I used Montage for my June wedding. Kristen was great to work with! She had a ton of great advice on how to prepare my skin for the big day—the facials were amazing and I plan on c...
ontinuing with those treatments! Kristen and her crew were on time, positive, and I thought the updos and makeup came out great! The only small issue was that the blow outs for bridesmaids were more like hot tools styling—tight curls vs. natural blown out curls. Otherwise, everything was great!! Highly recommend using Montage if you want zero stress leading up to and on your wedding day!
Kristen and Katie came out to my house do to everyone's hair and makeup (1 bride and 6 bridesmaids) and it was such a relaxing experience. Everyone looked absolutely fabulous and w...
e even finished ahead of schedule! There was no stress about timing and we all felt so pampered. It was great not having to travel, and they made sure I felt comfortable with the plan and that we all knew what to expect. I can't give a high enough recommendation!!!

om the salon and they were so efficient with their time! All of my girls looked absolutely amazing AND their hair and makeup lasted all night (so important!!)!!! Emily did my hair/makeup trial and she really did an amazing job using my Pinterest screenshots to guide what she did. They helped us look amazing for the best day of my life and I could ask for more! 💜💜
I found Montage through my wedding coordinators at my venue (The Herrington Inn) and I am so thankful! Best recommendation ever! Kristen was truly amazing throughout the entire wed...
ding planning process. She had excellent communication, clear pricing, and she created the perfect schedule for getting ready with my 7 bridesmaids, Mom, and Mother-In-Law on the morning of my wedding. Amy and Kristen did my hair and makeup trials and I was so impressed that after my brief description of what I thought I wanted, they created my perfect wedding look! Everything was so seamless and I am so grateful to them. The day of my wedding, Kristen did all of our makeup and Amy and Julie did our hair. They are all so talented and I highly recommend them!
I cannot recommend Montage enough! They were at the house before the sun came up to help us start getting ready for my wedding. They were patient, efficent and so sweet. Kristen wa...

Not only did everyone look stunning, but the hair and makeup lasted all day long! Getting ready there was so fun because we were the only people in the salon. The staff was kind and incredibly talented, and accommodating. The salon atmosphere was such a perfect, intimate, relaxing start to our day. Thank you Montage!

I chose Montage Salon and Spa to do my make-up and hair, as well as, my bridesmaids for my wedding on 9/16/17. They did an AWESOME job! Guests were giving my bridesmaids and myself...
many compliments on how beautiful we looked. I originally had them scheduled to come at 11:00 AM and had to move the time up to 9:00 AM and they were super flexible with me. Kristen did my make-up, and I was so pleased with how beautiful she made me look on my wedding day! I had Amie do my hair. She was great as well! My hair held up all night long. Both Kristen, Amie and the rest of the Montage team were down to earth people and were great to work with! My bridesmaids and my mom couldn't stop talking about how great their make-up and hair turned out. I am so happy I choose Montage Salon and Spa for my wedding day! I will definitely recommend them to friends and family. Thank you so much! You all were awesome!
Kristen was amazing at organizing everything, from my trial, my bridal party, and even adding the mothers into the appointment at the last minute. We got ready at the salon and had...
it all to ourselves - which was so fun. Kristen did makeup while Katie did hair. Both of them made me feel my absolute best on my wedding day! I was skeptical to go with the fake lashes, as never having worn any before, but Kristen picked out some natural looking ones for me and the initial professional photos look great. Thanks so much!
Kristen did my bridal make-up and she did a fantastic job. She was patient and listened to exactly what I wanted. The make-up lasted ALL day and night! My bridesmaids were also ver...

Kristen did a beautiful job with my wedding day makeup! She adjusted the eyelash extensions so that I felt more natural and covered up a new scar above my lip so that you didn't e...
ven know it was there! She was extremely patient and ready to adjust as bridesmaid requests changed. She also did makeup for the mothers, which looked very natural and made them look years younger and feel more confident. Amie did a wonderful job on my hair for the day also! I went with a half-up style with volume for the veil and it was perfect! Bangs fell just to the sides of my face and the criss-cross of the half-up piece held the veil securely. Amie even made time to blow out my mom's hair, which wasn't originally planned. I'd recommend Montage to any bride! Thanks so much!
Kristen is AMAZING! She made me feel so calm, cool and collected leading up to my wedding and the day of! She also did an incredible job on her services and so did her team!
