    Just perfect

    Ariel was just what I needed for my wedding day. So personal and professional, she even calmed my nerves the whole day.

    The best!!

    Arielle has done my hair & makeup 3 times now. I can honestly say I will never want anyone else but her to do it when I need it done again. I saw her for the first time back in 2022 when she did my hair & makeup for my engagement photos. I wasn’t really sure what I wanted & she gave me suggestions/showed photos & my hair and makeup came out amazing!! I saw her again this year for my wedding trial & i couldn’t have been happier with how it came out! Last weekend was my wedding and she absolutely killed it! Everyone’s hair & makeup came out amazing! I could not have been happier with my hair & makeup. It looked amazing in pictures & was exactly how I envisioned. Not only is Arielle SUPER talented, she is also such a sweet person!

    This is your sign to book Arielle for your wedding!

    Where do I even begin?! Arielle came so highly recommended to me by a friend and I would send everyone to her in a heartbeat. Arielle is a hair goddess! She did hair for myself, my mom, maid of honor, and three bridesmaids on Friday September 29 for my wedding. We gave her some inspiration photos and every single one of us looked amazing and was thrilled with how our hair turned out. She joined right in our getting ready party having a great time doing our hair and chatting with us. I (the bride) was running late and Arielle did not miss a beat and still completed all of our hair earlier than expected. There is nothing she cannot do. We had some up dos and some half up half down and all came out perfectly. You cannot go wrong with trusting Arielle to complete your look for your special day! Thank you for everything!

    Absolutely Gorgeous Makeup

    Arielle did an amazing job with the makeup for my wedding not only mine but all my girls and our mothers! I can’t express how much I loved our wedding day look! My flower girl was not in the schedule to get makeup done and Arielle did an amazing job on staying on schedule and had plenty of time to squeeze in the little one for her makeup!
    Thank you so much for the amazing work!
    I highly recommend!

    Makeup Artist / Hairstylist

    Arielle was professional, friendly, and really experienced. She knew exactly what I wanted for my hair and makeup today without me even having to explain anything. Now I can show up to my cousins wedding feeling beautiful and confident and ready to enjoy the party! Highly recommend her services for any bridal party needs.

    The best choice i could have made!

    Arielle was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly responsive throughout the planning process, and was very flexible to our schedule. Every inspiration photo we showed her for our hair and makeup was EXACTLY what we asked for. I cannot imagine having worked with a better person. 1000000/10 would recommend

    Arielle was great!

    My hair lasted ALL NIGHT! She gave me the most bad-a$$ Viking princess braids ever. I couldn’t believe how well it stayed. Pricing was very reasonable and she did such a fantastic job. All of my girls had their hair don’t as well and it looked beautiful. I could not recommend her enough!

    Arielle did an amazing job! She traveled from Portsmouth RI to Waltham MA for my wedding. She helped each oh my girls decide what they wanted for their hair and took their input seriously. My hair was absolutely beautiful and I got so many compliments. Arielle was on time, fast, and so kind!

    Amazing!!!

    Working with Arielle was an absolute dream. I was nervous researching hair and make up artists because I wasn't quite sure what I wanted, but Balayaged and Bridal offered everything I was looking for at a reasonable price so I decided to book. Arielle put me right at ease during my trial and I was blown away with my stunning natural make up and elegant up do and was so excited for my wedding day! Arielle did such a beautiful job on my day for myself and my bridal party, everyone was so thrilled. Arielle has such an easy going and calm demeanor, it was like having another friend with us while we got ready. I would 100% book with Balayaged and Bridal again and will always recommend to other brides.

    100% Recommend!

    Arielle was fantastic! She did a great job with both my hair and makeup, skillfully translating my inspo pics and requests into a look that I loved. The hairdo and makeup lasted for the whole wedding day and photographed beautifully. She also did a great job with my mom & sister, and she was a pleasure to work with.

    Hiring Arielle is the easiest decision you should be making for your wedding day…

    Arielle from beginning to end was a joy to work with. Her incredible communication really helped calm those wedding day jitters. She brought the nicest (& just as talented!) assistants with her to help us all get ready. We had 11 girls getting ready and their organized system had all girls feeling gorgeous and ready for photos on time.

    The women in my life don’t pamper themselves enough, and Arielle and her staff had every single one of my girls walk away feeling amazing. It was something I’ll never forget.

    I also changed what I wanted to do with my hair last minute and Arielle didn’t even flinch, she was excited to work her magic and she DID. I still can’t get over how amazing it looked!

    She is professional, talented and I cannot recommend her enough. We had an absolute blast getting ready and part of that was definitely because of the energy Arielle gives off during the whole process. You will not regret hiring her for your big day. She’s the best!

    Amazing work

    Arielle did an amazing job with my hair and makeup! I was a little apprehensive about someone else doing my makeup but she put all my fears to rest. She was very receptive to feedback from our trip session and incorporated all my wishes into the final look. I love how my hair and makeup turned out and my photos from our day came out so good!

    Works well with everyone!

    Working with Arielle was an absolute pleasure. She made me feel so comfortable, and was so much fun at the trial — we were talking as if we were old friends by the end! On the wedding day, she dealt with some very different personalities (and was especially patient and kind to my goddaughter who has some issues with social situations).

    I also have a difficult (medium/light brown) skin tone to match makeup to but she made me look stunning, just as she did for my bridesmaids (who have varying shades of white skin).

    I’m SO glad Arielle was there for my wedding day — her infectiously positive, yet calm demeanor was exactly what we needed for the day.

    Bonus: extremely reasonable prices!

    Perfect all around

    I gave Arielle a very general idea of what I wanted for my bridal hair style and she RAN with it. She exceeded my expectations in the final product.
    Also, Arielle is just a joy to work with. She’s so sweet and fun to be around. Everything you want for your big day!!

    Bride and matron of honor

    I reached out last minute and she sent me an email with prices right away! I booked immediately with only looking at her Instagram page and seeing her work there!!! She arrived early, was very professional, asked us what we wanted and we showed her pictures and we got exactly what we wanted without having any trials!!!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Arielle was an amazing hair and makeup artist! She was responsive, professional, and extremely talented. I had her do my hair and makeup as well as the hair and makeup for my four bridesmaids and my mother. She was extremely flexible and had amazing ideas on how to make each girl look their best. She was also so understanding of girls who were not comfortable with false lashes or who needed to do their own liner/mascara. We had an amazing experience and she did it for a very reasonable price. All of our hair and makeup lasted all day. I have already started recommending her to friends and family. She is a diamond in the rough!

    Arielle was absolutely AMAZING! She came to my hotel room and took care of myself and my bridesmaids. her work was absolutely amazing. Despite some setbacks with the hotels fire alarms going off and us having to evacuate she managed to get everyone done on time. I definitely recommend Arielles hair and makeup services to everyone !
