I’ve been going to Kelsey for my hair since I moved to Portland in 2022, and there was never a question that I would trust her with my wedding hair. As someone with naturally curly hair, I’m especially selective about who I let care for it — and Kelsey is truly the only person I would trust with something this important.

For my August 2025 wedding, Kelsey did my hair and her coworker Molly did my makeup, and the experience was everything I could have hoped for and more. From the very beginning, they were incredibly communicative, collaborative, and thoughtful. During our trial, I came in with a few reference photos and a general sense of what I liked — but very little confidence about accessories, jewelry, or how to actually pull the whole look together. Through conversation, intuition, and their obvious expertise, they helped me refine my vision in a way that felt authentic to me. I left that session with clear ideas about hair pieces, jewelry, and overall styling — something I genuinely would not have figured out on my own.

On the wedding day itself, Kelsey and Molly were on time, fully prepared, and completely organized. Their calm, grounded presence made an immediate difference for me. They were the first people I saw that morning, and their energy — fun, relaxed, and professional — helped center my nervous-but-excited energy and made me feel truly ready for the day ahead.

They work beautifully as a team and it’s clear they’ve spent a lot of time working together. They communicate effortlessly, play off each other naturally, and create an environment that feels both efficient and genuinely enjoyable. Beyond their technical skill (which is exceptional), what really sets them apart is their emotional intelligence — they listen, they read the room, and they know exactly how to support their clients on a day that can feel vulnerable and high-stakes.

I would recommend Kelsey and Molly wholeheartedly to anyone getting married, especially those who value collaboration, great taste, clear communication, and a calm, joyful wedding morning. You’ll be in extremely good hands.

The team at Oregon City Bridal was phenomenal. They are fun, kind, and oh-so good at what they do. Kelsey did my bridal hair and Molly did my makeup, but having seen the others’ work, I would have trusted my wedding look with anyone on the team. I still get compliments specifically on my hair and makeup when people see photos! They also did HMU for the women in our immediate families (I didn’t have a bridal party), and my sister said she liked her hair even more than at her own wedding! Oregon City Bridal is something special, and you’ll be so happy they’re by your side on your special day.

Kelsey is simply amazing and I had the best experience with her! She took the time to listen to what I wanted and asked questions and offered suggestions to ensure we were on the same page. She made me feel so beautiful. I received so many compliments on my hair all evening. I have medium textured hair and the updo she created was perfect!

Jordan and Laney were amazing on my wedding day! Not only was i beyond happy with my hair and makeup but they were both a calming and fun presence. I had a bad trial at another bridal salon and they were able to get me in last minute and although i didnt have time for a trial with them i couldent have been happier. I got the most compliments on my hair and eveyone I show my wedding photos too comments on it. Jordan also did a great job making me feel beautiful while still looking like me and not feeling like i was caked in makup. They were on time and prompt with there responses. Were super clean and organized. I genuinely could not have been happier and will always recommend them!
