The Stately Rose Beauty Studio 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 12
  • Serves Kensington, CT

Your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your life! You want to feel beautiful, confident and naturally flawless. The Stately Rose Beauty Studio has a team of talented and trusted hair and makeup professionals, ready to create your ideal wedding look.

Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, working with The Stately Rose team was a pleasure. From my initial conversation with Johanna about my vision for my look, I could tell this was the right salon for me and my girls. Her careful attention to detail and genuine care for me as a potential client impressed me. Throughout the process, Yoli, the bridal coordinator, responded to all of my questions promptly and cheerfully. Marielly and Janelle made me feel so comfortable and confident at my trial and were open and responsive to feedback and follow-up questions I had about my own look as well as questions my girls wanted to ask. On my wedding day, my bridesmaids, mom, and I got ready at the pink salon. The space is bright, airy, and full of cute spots for photos. Marielly and Janelle gave each of my girls the same VIP treatment they gave me at my trial and they kept us on time to ensure the rest of the day went smoothly. My group ranged widely in terms of needs (we had hair that was curly, straight, thick, and thin and girls who ranged from wearing little to no makeup regularly to girls who regularly go full glam and wanted bright and colorful looks), and each girl ended up with a look that was perfect for them! Our hair and makeup lasted all night long! While the final product was impressive, what stands out the most to me about working with The Stately Rose was how they made me feel. Every question or concern I had was treated as important (no matter how small) in the lead-up to the day. In the salon, Marielly and Janelle created a positive, fun, relaxed, and empowering environment. They were the ultimate hype-women all morning and they really set the tone for the day moving forward. It was especially meaningful to me how much care our team took in accommodating health and safety concerns among my party; requests we made to keep those with compromised immune systems or allergies comfortable and safe were made without hesitation. We all left the salon to start the rest of the busy and stressful day feeling like our best selves. I could not have asked for a better glam team and I’d recommend The Stately Rose to any bride-to-be without hesitation!

We booked a cello and violin duet for our wedding. We are so thankful for the flexibility of the Ariana Strings team! Our wedding did not go as planned, and we had to shift locations last minute. Through calls and texts, the duet showed up and were able to set up again quickly to play our ceremony set. Everyone loved the live music, and the duet was friendly and professional. Ariana was a blast to work with as we chose songs for our set list, and we appreciated her suggestions as we narrowed it down. We will definitely consider booking Ariana Strings again!

Tree Films Creative // Wedding Photos and Films

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Kensington, CT

We're Ashley and James, nature—inspired storytellers and creative partners who are here to capture your most precious moments. As a husband-and-wife team, we understand the importance of connection. We take the time to get to know you so that your wedding film reflects your unique journey together. We’re drawn to the beauty of those candid moments—the joyful smiles, heartfelt tears, and loving embraces—and we transform them into cinematic treasures that you and your loved ones will cherish for generations.

Treefilms is a stellar photography and videography company! After our venue, they were the second vendor we booked as photography and videography was very important to us. Ashley was responsive and kind from the beginning! She was open to our ideas in regard to location and then made it look even better in the photo video! We felt so comfortable during that shoot and at our wedding in front of the camera with them. They gave us enough direction that it was easy to know what to do, but did not result in stiff or overly posed pictures. The candid shots that they captured throughout the wedding day are photos we will cherish; they were able to capture all the emotions so perfectly. The team worked seamlessly with all the other vendors, they truly know what they’re doing! (Shoutout to Ashley for doing up the buttons on my dress!) Our wedding video is a work of art, I don’t think it’s comparable to the standard videos produced by other vendors. Treefilms is the vendor we recommend most to friends and family, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

We used Ben to video our December 30 wedding. The choice to use a Videographer was last minute on our part, but Ben made himself available, was very easy to work with, and every meeting with him was stress-free. Ben made communicating prior to the wedding as easy as possible, always making himself available and making sure he met our needs. As far as the wedding day, he made sure my husband and I got what we wanted, and made sure all of our special moments were captured for us to look back on. He was flexible during the wedding day as far as when he was working, and when he was taking a break to make sure that we had all the footage we would need. We received the finish product just about three weeks after the wedding, and we couldn’t be happier! Overall, I would highly recommend Ben if you are in need of Videographer.

Rachel was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! She made all of our visions come to life with stunning flowers, boutonnieres, centerpieces, and more. Her responsiveness and accommodating nature made the entire process stress-free, and her attention to detail is unmatched. Rachel also did the flowers for both of my older sisters’ weddings, and her work is consistently incredible. She goes above and beyond in everything she does. A perfect example: she remembered that my husband is Ukrainian and that Ukrainians prefer flowers in odd numbers, so she thoughtfully ensured all our arrangements followed this tradition—without me even mentioning it!

We worked towards a common goal which is to make the client happy. It wasn’t a competition but instead a team work.

Why settle for the same clichéd, predictable service everyone else uses? You're unique, and your wedding should be, too. I'll work with you to design the perfect ceremony to match your own individual style and personality.

Mr Lang was the leader and voice of our whole ceremony. His voice was loud, clear, and powerful. His loud, powerful voice commanded a presence throughout the whole ceremony. Before our ceremony we were able to meet with Mr Lang as well to go over options on how we could go about our ceremony. He also sent us the versions we went over to make any changes we wanted to. He was extremely easy to work with and also helped us through the whole process. Throughout our process leading up to the wedding there were some unforeseen circumstances that caused some changes the day before. Even with this happening Mr Lang was able to change everything up and even some decisions being made the day off and everything went on without any issues. I would fully recommend Mr Lang for any kind of ceremony. He will make your ceremony special and lead a ceremony that you will never forget.

Great communication leading up to the shoot itself and taking our preferences into consideration. She made us feel instantly comfortable in front of the camera and the pictures showed it! We can't wait to work with her for the wedding! We would highly recommend!

Hi, I’m Sarah! The owner of Smainsbeauty. I am a licensed cosmetologist and makeup artist. I specialize in bridal hair and makeup. I offer a variety of add on services, such as extensions. I will travel just about anywhere to make your day special.

Where do I begin? I contacted Sarah a couple months prior to my wedding and she was so enthusiastic to help! I’ve known Sarah since high school and have seen her grow as a hairstylist/make up artist through social media so I really did trust that she would make me shine for my big day. From getting my hair colored prior to the wedding, to the hair and make up trial and me leaving feeling like an absolute princess, I was ready for my wedding to come. Sarah made me feel so welcome in her studio and answered any and all of my questions no matter how dumb they seemed. Wedding day came and went in a flash, she was on time (early), she battled my toddlers getting into her things when she first entered and she made me feel like I was her priority, like nothing else mattered except my hair and make up on my special day. She nailed the inspo pics of both hair style and make up, she gave me extra tips and tricks to keep things in check for when it came time for pictures, and having her there even just as an old friend put the nerves at ease. If you’re looking for someone to do an incredible job on both hair and make up, make you laugh, and make you feel like nothing else and no one else matters aside from you looking gorgeous on your special day, choose Sarah.

This little hobby that started back in 2015 has become an absolute dream come true!! Photographing weddings is my second favorite part of this job, with serving the most incredible couples being the first! I knew from the start that I wanted my business to be focused on creating an amazing wedding experience that caters to each couple in a unique and memorable way! My focus throughout the entire process is to make things easy, stress-free, and most of all FUN! Outside of this business, I also train Ninja Warrior and love exploring throughout New England & the Northeast!

My wife and I had an absolutely traumatic photography search experience. Our original photographer never panned out, was shady, and never made it seem like they cared about the product. That's why when we decided to search for someone new and stumbled upon Chelsea, we knew the stars were aligning at the the correct time with this absolute blessing in disguise. From our first meeting, Chelsea listened to us, understood what we were coming from and where we wanted to go in terms of our photos. Her breathtaking bright and colorful photos were exactly what we were looking for in our April wedding. Despite meeting in person for the first time the day of our wedding, the lead up and communication day of made it feel like we were old friends seeing each other again. Both her and her husband/second shooter Ryan are top notch. They executed all the fun little quirks we wanted perfectly, including our groomsmen "NFL Entrance" photos, and private "First Touch". They stayed through most of the night and captured the entire reception, intros, dances, and party. We left for our honeymoon less than 2 days later, and by the time we landed, we already had 100 (!) photos as a sneak peek. The turnaround time was incredible. Chelsea prides herself on connecting with her clients, keeps her promises, and delivers exceptionally. We count our lucky stars we found Chelsea Lavallee Photography when we did. She made our day complete. Thank you Chelsea & Ryan!

Growing up in Egypt, near the great Pyramids, has inspired my eyes to capture great moments that last for life time. I am surrounded both by natural beauty and interesting people. I use my camera to document the world and then print images with a focus on the magic I find in daily life. My pictures tell my stories
