    I was originally introduced to Mani Mela years ago when I was a bridesmaid in a friend’s wedding. They did such impressive work that TWO of my other friends hired them for their weddings and then of course, I had to do the same for mine ☺

    I got married at Windows on Minnesota (50th floor of the IDS Center downtown Minneapolis). On the day of my wedding, Mani Mela arrived to my bridal suite in the Marquette Hotel on time, with all of the necessary tools and as an added bonus – they were so sweet and fun.

    This team provided the best wedding makeup and hair experience a bride could ever ask for. They met with me several times to ensure my expectations were fulfilled prior to the big day.

    Bottom line: I couldn’t have been happier with Mani Mela because they made me feel like a model, my bridesmaids were stunning and both my mom + my now-mother-in-law were drop dead gorgeous.

    The best part of this team is they truly do listen to what you want and provide top-notch results.

    I would HIGHLY recommend this team to anyone and wish I could do it all over again because it was so amazing.

    I used Mani Mela for their make-up artists and they absolutely blew me away! The artist was so talented, and open to feedback and could tell really cared about making sure I got the look I wanted. I got so many compliments the day of, and still do to this day (5 months later). Book them, you won't regret it!!

    Mani Mela did my hair and make-up for my pre-wedding, wedding, and wedding reception, along with my family hair/make-up for the wedding and reception. In addition, they did our reception centerpieces. They were AMAZING to work with. Hana and Kylie did a trial with me beforehand, during which they did all 3 hairstyles and 2 make-up looks - which took over 2.5 hours, at the end of which they still asked if there was anything else I wished to see! Kylie worked with me to make a timeline for my family members for the day of - my family had very specific times they each preferred to get ready, so Kylie allowed me to rearrange the stylists and put them together as I saw fit. As the bride I received more compliments on my hair and make-up than my outfits, and I had numerous people ask for Mani Mela's card! My entire family was ecstatic about their hair and make-up - especially how hard the entire team worked to perfect each person's look to their liking. Despite the chaos of 7 hair/make-up touch-ups and restyles done in 2.5 hours, they were calm and made sure everyone was done in a timely manner and yet happy with exactly how it all turned out. With regards to our centerpieces, the entire team accommodated worked with us to make the centerpiece designs what we envisioned while staying in our budget, including allowing us to provide vases and candles for the centerpieces that we already owned which they then setup for us. I'd highly recommend their services! I HIGHLY recommend their services - not only is their end product amazing, they are easy to work with, passionate, very accommodating, high-energy, and delightful to work with! They are clearly passionate about their work and take pride in everything they do!

    Hana and her team were amazing. We could never have had that beautiful wedding on our own. They were extremely hard working and honest. Would recommend Mani Mela to anyone. Loved them!

    I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Hana and her team! They went above and beyond to ensure my day was perfect in every way. I hired Mani Mela for floral design and hair/makeup for my wedding this past October. Everyone raved about the flowers, and the bridesmaids looked fabulous all night long. I was particularly pleased with the quality of my updo from Kylie. In short, don't hesitate to work with Hana and her awesome team!

    I hired Mani Mela for my hair and makeup for my wedding back in August. I also had a trial run as well. I am extremely happy that I had a trial run for both hair and makeup. I was very unsure as to what I wanted to do for my hair or even what kind of look I wanted to go with. Kylie was great, she did several styles on my hair and helped me pick one that I loved. At my wedding everyone looked flawless! I was married at the Van Dusen Mansion and we had a very very small time frame(2.5 hours) to get myself, my mother, my mother in law, personal attendant and 5 bridesmaids ready to go. They came early, and were ready to go right away, they brought a huge team of people with. Everyone was ready to go on time and looked fabulous! I am extremely happy that I went with them and would recommend them to anyone!

    I had Mani Mela do my bridal party makeup for the wedding and Tina and Hana our makeup artists were absolutely wonderful!!!! I would highly suggest booking them for your wedding. I'm not a huge make up person but they made it look very natural. They were super professional and prepared the day of the wedding I didn't have to worry about one thing. So happy I choose them to do airbrush makeup, it was beautiful!

    This was a great choice for my daughter and her wedding party. They made us look beautiful and did a great job. As the Mother of the bride, I have never had make up done and I felt like a million when she was finished. My husband was so impressed!!!

    Mani Mela did an absolutely amazing job with our floral and event design, and hair/makeup. They created exactly what we wanted within our budget and we received so many compliments. They tailored centerpieces and all the bouquets to my taste and I am so thrilled they made pieces that were so unique and memorable. We could not have been happier with Mani Mela. Completely stunning and quality work.

    I worked with Hana from Mani Mela, and she was a life saver! I am not a flower person AT ALL and so I was petrified of picking out flowers! I live in New York and was planning a wedding in Minnesota, so this just added to the challenge of picking out flowers, but Hana was amazing. I sent her pictures of flowers I liked on pinterest and color combinations I liked and a budget and pretty much gave her free reign for everything, and she created the most amazing flowers! Our centerpieces were heart stopping and my bridal bouquet was a shower stopper. I would most definitely recommend this company to any bride planning her big day! :)

    I had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Hana at Mani Mela for our floral design at our recent wedding ceremony and wedding reception. Mani Mela provided all of our bouquets, boutonnieres/corsages, altar arrangements, and table centerpieces. Their team delivered our flowers to two sites, as well as beautifully arranged our centerpieces at the reception for a small fee. The end product produced by Mani Mela far surpassed any expectations I had of the floral design for our wedding. The bouquets and centerpieces were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Mani Mela for any brides planning their upcoming weddings!

    Wow, the hair and makeup services that Mani Mela provide are totally amazing! Their staff was so efficient and patient, even when one of the bridesmaids got lost on the way to the hotel! We had them do hair for the entire bridal party, mom and grandma and makeup for several people. My makeup and hair were flawless, which was one less thing for me to worry about on my wedding day! They made my Mom look so good that many people didn't even recognize her! They were really good at giving us ideas for how to style our hair, even when many of the bridal party had no idea what they wanted. I would recommend them to anyone!

    I had first used Mani Mela for my engagement photo hair and make up. I loved this because I got to know the girls before my official bridal hair and make up trial. I completely loved everything they did for my engagement session. My pictures turned out wonderfully! I got so many compliments about my engagement and wedding photos. Many of the compliments were on the hair and make up.
    My bridal preview was so relaxing and wonderful. They had me stay as long as I needed to really make sure I got the look I wanted for my wedding day. They even ordered me hair extensions per my request, and helped me to have the most beautiful, long, thick hair I always dreamed for my wedding day.
    I also loved working with Mani Mela for my bridal trial and wedding day. The girls at Mani Mela are so talented and super friendly. My whole wedding party got done including two moms and a grandmother. They did a fantastic job on everyone. The moms and grandmother loved the more subtle looks that they wanted and my bridal party and I got the more done-up looks that we wanted. They are very versatile and really listened to what each person wanted to have done. They are very easy to talk to and well organized. They got everyone done on time. I truly enjoyed my whole experience with them.
    I would recommend asking to have them come and do a touch up on your wedding day. I took my photos before the ceremony and it was 90 degrees outside. Because of the heat, I did not look as fresh after taking hours of photos. Luckily they were willing to come and touch me up before the ceremony. I looked flawless for my photos and my ceremony/reception. That was so appreciated that they came back for a touch up.

    I had Mani Mela do my hair and make up for my engagement session. Hana was so flexible with my schedule and she had several brides to do that day but she made the time to drive down to Rochester to do my hair and makeup. Once she arrived she made me so relax and took all my insecurities away. She was very professional and she knew exactly what color foundation to use on my face. I am Vietnamese and I've always had trouble finding the perfect shade of color however Hana did a wonderful job mixing foundations to find that perfect color. She uses air brush foundation which looks flawless in pictures. For my hair she did simple curls and teased my hair. I loved it. She went above and beyond on what I imagined my hair would be. It was a hot sunny day that day and I was afraid my make up and hair wouldn't last. I was wrong. My make up lasted for 8+ hours and my hair was still perfect. We just received our pictures back and they look AMAZING! Without Mani Mela I wouldn't have been happy with my pictures. I can't wait to use Mani Mela again for my wedding day. I highly recommend them and I highly recommend Hana. Hana knows her stuff and has great advice. She has a lot of patience and she takes her time with you. Totally worth the money.

    Working with Hana and her staff was a wonderful experience. Hair and makeup were very important to me and looking through Hana's images online, I knew she would be able to deliver the results I wanted. Everything from the consultation to the day of went smoothly and my wedding party and I looked better than I could have imagined. Hana was very easy to get along with and listened to all of my ideas and fixed even the smallest things that bugged me (brides can get crazy, and she sure knows how to handle that!) I highly recommend her services to anyone!

    Hana is amazing! I have never felt or looked more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. She really did an outstanding job listening to what I wanted and making it happen. It was a very personalized experience and I can't say enough great things about Hana and the other girls.

    I LOVED Hana with Un.Veiled Styling. From the first interaction I had with her, she was so sweet and professional. I thought her prices were beyond reasonable, and I felt comfortable with her from the start. She really works hard to make sure the bride feels beautiful on the wedding day. While researcing and booking vendors for the wedding I was never hasty with my decisions, and would wait to sign a vendor. When I went to see her the first time to get info from her, I was so impressed I signed with her on the spot. And I was happy with the service every step of the way. During the hair/makeup trial a lot of other stylists charge per hair style, and for little extras here and there. Hana doesn't do that. Her costs include most things, which is hard to find. I also like that Hana specializes in hair and makeup for all different skin and hair types. I'll definitely use Hana again!

    Just book Mani Mela. You will not regret it. They provide all-star services that you will love!!
    Kylie and Heidi did a fabulous job with my hair and the hair of my six bridesmaids! They don't just do hair... they offer great hairstyle ideas, fabulously replicate hairstyle ideas that you find in magazines or online, and do everything in such a timely fashion.

    Hana & Kylie did my bridal makeup and hair for my August 23, 2013 wedding. They made me feel very confident that my hair and makeup would look phenomenal the day of my wedding, and it did. My whole wedding party was very pleased with the service. They were very pleasant to work with, and they made us all feel relaxed. My hair stayed up all night!

    I recently hired Mani Mela for beauty services for myself and my wedding party. It was so relaxing for me to have them come to my home and for us all to get ready in a comfortable place. Hana did my hair and makeup and I can't say enough kind things about her, her patience, her attitude, and her sincere desire for me to be happy and comfortable. All the bridesmaids had their make up done by Jess and she did a spectacular job. Everyone on the team arrived early and we were ready with plenty of time to spare, they were fantastic!

    I used Mani Mela for my bridesmaids and myself. They prices are very reasonable/comparable to other hair and makeup vendors. They came on site to do our hair and makeup. The hair and makeup looked great on everyone. Everyone's hair and makeup held up all day. If you show them a picture of what you are looking for, they can basically replicate it. I was super happy with my hair and makeup. I would recommend Mani Mela to other brides!

    Hana was awesome to work with. She was able to take our ideas and make them great. Everyone is still talking about the flowers and backdrop for our reception. I would recommend her any day.

    Taylor and Denise did onsite makeup application for my bridesmaids, my mother-in-law, and me (the bride) on the morning of the wedding. Everyone looked GORGEOUS. They were both very accommodating and put us all at ease. They showed up on time and were set up and ready to start at 8 am, as planned. I had done a trial run with Taylor two weeks before the wedding and she made all of the adjustments I requested.

    Full payment for the services is required in advance, so that is something to keep in mind - I know other makeup vendors allow payment on the day of the event. That said, the online system was very easy to use and I was happy to have it out of the way and not have to worry about it on the wedding day.

    We had a very difficult time with mani mela from after the time we signed our contract. In the beginning, many things were presented in a way that it seemed like all services were included but that changrd with time. If you want mani mela to give you design suggestions expect to pay an extra 20% fee. It was often hard to get responses to emails or specific questions. In the end our reception hall looked fine but the centerpieces were nothing like the pictures we showed her. Her prices are mid range but it does not come with any sesign opinion. It became a frustrating process for us to have to email same questions and or ideas we liked over and ovet again.
