What is the story behind Once Upon a Bride?
Once Upon a Bride is a private collective of New York hair and makeup artists, led by Emmy-nominated celebrity hairstylist Stacey Lyn Weinstein.
Founded in 1999, OUAB was created to give brides access to the level of beauty experience Stacey knew from television, editorial and New York salon culture.
Every bride is paired personally with an artist based on her individual style, aesthetic and vision — never assigned randomly. Our approach is collaborative, personal and considered.
- We listen, we explore, and we take the time to get it right.
Our bridal previews go beyond a single look.
Three hair looks. Makeup from soft to smoky.
We collaborate, refine and take the time to get it right.
So you leave knowing exactly how you want to look on your wedding day.
- Beyond talent, personality matters. Our artists are warm, kind, calm and genuinely lovely to have around — the kind of people you want with you on your wedding morning. We believe the energy in the room matters just as much as the finished look.
From fresh, luminous beauty and effortless hair to technically detailed styling, extensions and full bridal transformations, our collective brings together artists with different specialties and points of view. We work with brides of all ages, skin tones and hair textures, from intimate celebrations to full wedding parties, in New York and beyond.
- Woman-owned
