No One Does it Better!

From the moment I got engaged, I knew without a doubt that I wanted Larissa and her team to be part of my wedding day. Having been a client of theirs back when I lived in Connecticut, I already knew how talented, kind, and professional they were—but somehow, they still managed to exceed every expectation.

From start to finish, working with them was an absolute dream. I have truly never felt more beautiful in my entire life, and my bridesmaids felt the exact same way. The team was patient, attentive, incredibly skilled, and brought such a fun, positive energy to the morning.

Larissa, thank you and your amazing team for making us feel so special. I would hire you again in a heartbeat! You all are truly the best in the business.

Crystal and Ashlyn

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!

Looking and feeling my best when it mattered most!

I booked my wedding hair and makeup with Larissa Lake (bride + 6 bridal party). The team was highly professional, efficient, and responsive to our requests and feedback. Emily did our hair, and Olivia our makeup. As the bride, I looked and felt at my most beautiful and I cannot thank the team at Larissa Lake enough for their services and the ease of booking, trials, and coordinating on our big day. I would certainly recommend this business to trust for your wedding.

Best of the best!

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!

Kelly’s the best!

We hired Larissa lake & co to do my makeup for my wedding and if after reading this post and you’re wondering what to do.. book immediately!!!
3 days before my wedding I got a call that the original make up artist was in the hospital and unable to do mine or anyone’s makeup the morning of. As any bride the week of the wedding, I was panicking but everyone at Larissa Lake worked so hard to make sure that my day would still be perfect. I was quite skeptical because my trial was everything I hoped for and more and was so nervous it wouldn’t be able to be re-created.
They were able to squeeze me in for a new makeup trial within 16 hours of that dreaded phone call and I was in the makeup chair with Kelly and she completely recreated the look to perfection and made her own of it and my nerves were immediately gone. I originally had someone else doing my hair but after seeing Kelly work her magic we asked if she would be able to do my hair for my wedding day, and the team figured a way that she would be able to and Kelly was more than accommodating and excited.
Kelly had another wedding the day of mine which meant she’d have to leave an hour earlier than our original contract stated with our original artist. The whole wedding coordination team figured out a way to make sure all the people getting their makeup done would be able to and because of Kelly having to leave an hour earlier than planned, Larissa’s sister also came to help on wedding day.
Kelly and Shauntelle were amazing, thorough, kind, and exceptional at their crafts.
Kelly came with pictures from my trial two days prior and wanted to change a few things and I trusted her completely. Shauntelle did 5 girls makeup and they turned out UNREAL. Everyone loved their makeup and it stayed ALL day and night without moving!
Kelly did my mom’s makeup and my hair and makeup! They were perfection. My hair stayed all night and my makeup was unbelievable. It couldn’t have turned out better and although I was so nervous with how things would turn out I honestly think everything happens for a reason (of course not the artist getting sick but the change of plans that happened)!
1000000000/10 recommend. I’d do it all again with the exact same outcome over and over again! Kelly was amazing and i couldn’t be more obsessed with her! Thank you everyone from the Larissa Lake team for going above and beyond! Thank you will never be enough!!!

Hire ll & co.

extremely talented hair and makeup team that were so professional. My hair trial was amazing, and she made all the appropriate changes I asked for on the wedding day. Larissa and her team were on time, traveled to us, and got 8 women done in 4 hours! We were all dripping in sweat from the heat and our makeup was flawless!! Also the salon in Wethersfield is gorgeous if you needed to get ready there.

I can’t get over how beautiful I felt and looked on my wedding day

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!!!!

Love Larissa and her beautiful team. My brides are always so happy and they look so stunning on their big day.

Larissa Lake Makeup Artist & Co. is wonderful! Larissa and her wonderful team did our hair and make up for our T.V. commercial, and a few weddings that the staff attended. They are professional, but also tons of fun to be around! We definitely recommend LLMUA & Co. to anyone looking for professional hair, make up, eyelash extensions, etc. The studio is beautiful, and the staff is truly talented. They could probably get into photography too, because some of the "after" photos are absolutely beautiful.

I have had the pleasure to work with Larissa and she is not only a fabulous make up and hair artist, but she worked so well with my clients. She put them at ease and most important, she created a fun and convenient way for them to look their best for their portrait sessions. I can't wait to work with Larissa again!
