LBV saved the day for me and my wedding party! My original plan for a big wedding in Baltimore had to be scrapped because of the pandemic. I set one of my ladies to research stylists in the area of my parents' house in NJ (our pandemic-friendly location), and Samantha at LBV was an instant favorite. With a little less than a month before the event, I was freaking out about finding anyone who would be able to accomodate us in a safe, socially-distant way, and who would be able to help me (a pale, freckled, quite sweaty bride!) look good for my entire August-evening wedding. Samantha was friendly and helpful (completely cognizant of our desire to be off-site and COVID compliant), and make-up artist Helen and hair genius Jai made our whole party (two moms, two bridesmaids, two groomswomen, and me) look FANTASTIC! We had a relaxing and productive morning at the LBV headquarters(?) in Whitehouse Station with tasty pastries, lovely conversation, and brilliant advice and styles from Helen and Jai. I did not have a specific look for myself or the party, and Helen and Jai were able to accomodate all of our desires and still keep us looking like a cohesive group.
Also, even with seven people to do full hair and makeup for, we were AHEAD of schedule (when was the last time that ever happened?!) and had plenty of time before the main event. The only complaint I have (and it's a small one) was that we had to pay entirely in cash, which was a small inconvenience. However, everyone felt safe (plenty of physical space and mask-wearing- those of us fresh out of makeup were able to remain distant while it set) and pretty, and I would definitely recommend LBV for anyone planning their own event in Central Jersey, even during this pandemic. Oh, and even though I cried nearly my entire wedding (good tears!) and it was a hot summer night in NJ, my makeup and hair stayed PERFECT the entire time, as did those of my whole party. Thank you thank you thank you!

An amazing wedding day experience!!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about our hair and makeup team! From the moment they arrived on our wedding day, they brought the best energy and made the morning feel so special! They truly listened to what each of my bridesmaids and mother/mother-in-law wanted and made everyone feel beautiful, confident and comfortable! Not only did our hair and makeup look absolutely stunning, but it lasted perfectly throughout the entire day and night, even through happy tears, hugs, dancing and everything in between.

As a bride, there is so much pressure to feel your best on your wedding day and they exceeded every expectation!! I knew after my wedding trial that I had made the right decision in choosing La Belle Visage because I LOVED my hair and makeup so much. The day of the wedding when I looked in the mirror, I felt like the most beautiful version of myself! They enhanced my natural features while still making me feel completely like me, which was exactly what I had hoped for. Beyond their incredible talent, they were professional, organized, kind and genuinely invested in making sure everything went smoothly.
If you’re looking for a hair and makeup team that will make you feel beautiful inside and out, I wholeheartedly recommend them!! I wish they could do my hair and makeup everyday!

I truly cannot say enough great things about Samantha, Jessica, and their team. For reference, I’m a brand-new physician, so you can imagine how meticulous I am and how much attention I pay to detail. I researched 15 to 20 hair and makeup artists before making my decision, and Samantha stood out above all of them. Not only were her reviews fantastic and her pricing very fair compared to competitors, but the photos of her brides speak for themselves. Every bride looked absolutely gorgeous, and I knew she would make my bridal party look stunning on my wedding day. What I appreciated most was how well she listened to me and delivered exactly what I wanted. I’ve had my makeup professionally done twice before as a bridesmaid, and even though I gave the same description each time, Samantha was the only artist who truly listened. I wanted a softer glam look because I rarely wear makeup, and she absolutely mastered it. I still looked and felt like myself, just elevated, and that was exactly what I wanted for my wedding day! At the same time, she was incredibly versatile. My friends and mom preferred a more full-glam look, and she absolutely nailed that as well. Everyone looked amazing, felt confident, and was so happy with the results!! With her and Jessica's help, I felt prettier than I ever have in my whole life!! Looking back, I honestly can’t imagine anyone else doing a better job. Please book them. You will not be disappointed!!

Samantha and Shannon were absolutely amazing for my wedding day! I felt flawless from the moment I got ready and truly never felt prettier. The entire morning went so smoothly, and they made the experience fun, relaxing, and stress-free. They were both so friendly and easy to work with, and everything turned out even better than I imagined. Highly recommend this hair and makeup team for any bride!

The La Belle Visage Team was amazing throughout the whole process! Communication with Samantha was amazing throughout the process! We had hair and makeup done for 13 women and 2 flower girls and they were able to do a fantastic job in a short time! Everyone looked amazing and the hair and makeup stayed on all night! Helen, Adrianna, Shannon and Alyse were all incredible and I would recommend them to everyone!

Jess, Samantha and their team were incredible. My hair and makeup were flawless, stayed through the after party and made me glow on my wedding day. Not only are they talented beyond words, they are kind, professional and really fun to hang out with! All of my bridesmaids looked gorgeous and were so happy with their looks. We had a short window to get ready and a large party (11 total) - this team of 4 got everyone done with time to spare. It never felt rushed; I felt relaxed the whole time. I cannot wait to work with these hair and makeup angels again for my next event!

La Belle Visage was absolutely amazing and I cannot recommend them enough. Shannon and Samantha were truly incredible from start to finish.

Everyone’s hair and makeup turned out so beautiful, and everything held up perfectly throughout the day. They listened to what each person wanted, enhanced everyone’s natural features, and made sure we all felt confident and camera-ready.

Most importantly, they made me feel completely stunning on my wedding day. I felt like the best version of myself, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention they put into every detail.

On top of their talent, Shannon and Samantha were just so fun to be around — we had the best time hanging out with them in the get ready suite. They brought such a calming, positive energy and made the whole morning feel exciting, relaxed, and special.

And it wasn’t just hair and makeup — they truly went above and beyond in the most thoughtful ways. Samantha even helped me write a message to a floral preservationist on Instagram because I couldn’t think of the right words in the moment. That kind of kindness and support meant so much to me.

If you’re looking for hair and makeup artists who are professional, talented, and truly a joy to work with, La Belle Visage is the one.

Absolutely amazing! I can’t say enough amazing things about my wedding day hair and makeup! From the moment they arrived, the team was warm, professional, and incredibly talented. They made me feel so calm and taken care of throughout the whole process.
What truly stood out was how beautifully they accentuated my features—I still looked like myself, just the most radiant, confident version! My makeup was flawless and lasted all day and night, through happy tears, hugs, and hours of dancing. And the hair? Absolute perfection. It held up beautifully and photographed like a dream.
Thanks to their work, I felt genuinely beautiful walking down the aisle, and I’ve never felt more confident in front of the camera. I’m so grateful to have had such a gifted and supportive team on one of the most important days of my life. Highly, highly recommend!

I’m so incredibly happy that I worked with Sam for my wedding day. Not only did she create the vision I had for my wedding makeup perfectly, but my trial & wedding day makeup lasted 12+ hours. She’s professional, talented, and her work showcases why she’s been in the business for 20 years. She brought along Shannon for all the girls hair, which all came out so beautiful. Not a hair came out of place and believe me, we were dancing all night. Sam & Shannon got everyone done on time and every single one of us felt beautiful, especially the girls that don’t usually get their hair or makeup done. I so much look forward to working with her again, you’re in the best hands with her as your makeup girl.

La Belle Visage was the first vendor I booked for my March 2025 wedding, and for good reason. Samantha was super responsive and as the big day got closer we scheduled my trial and she helped develop a day-of timeline for my bridal party. I was absolutely blown away by Samantha and Jessica's talent on trial day, I knew they did incredible work, but WOW - I never felt more beautiful. Not only that, but Samantha and Jess were so welcoming and felt like friends I have known for years. On the morning of my wedding they arrived early for set up and kept us all on time. Everyone loved Samantha and Jess's energy - they are so fun and also were the sense of calm that I needed. We made a few changes to my makeup (Samantha actually requested we make the changes that I was going to ask for! She's a total pro). They were so helpful providing tips and tricks for me - Samantha even hid tissues in my bouquet before my first look. Everyone looked stunning and I looked even better than my trial (which I didn't think was possible!). Run, don't walk to book Samantha and Jess!
