My husband and I live in TX but were planning our wedding in MD (we lived there prior to TX) so I was very fortunate to be able to go to a stylist I already knew and trusted for my hair. Rania, co-owner of Alliage, is an incredibly talented and professional stylist and she did a gorgeous job on my hair! She does some of the best up-dos I have ever seen!! I also had my make-up done by Aly Cohen, an artist that Alliage will contact for you. Though I did not know Aly prior to my move to TX, she was wonderful during my make-up trial and even better the day of. She is also one of the funniest people I have ever met! (which is helpful when you're a bundle of nerves!!). To add to how amazing they are, they not only did my hair and make up that day but also my bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law as well in as little as 3 hours (after making an hour drive to the venue for 8am on a Sunday morning)!!!
I would also be remiss to not mention the esthetician and nail services of Rena (other co-owner) and nail services of Christina (she did my mom and mother-in-law's nails the day before the wedding).
