About
Ceremony Bride
The people who will be in the room with you on your wedding morning.
Wedding mornings happen in borrowed rooms — a suite in Big Sky, a ranch house outside Livingston, a lodge in Paradise Valley with the river out the window.
We have spent ten years in rooms like those. Long enough to know what you are worried about: that you will not look like yourself, and that the morning will get away from you. That is what the months before your wedding are for.
Since 2015.
Kirsten and Alaina took their first weddings together in 2015. The work grew and the team grew with it: a full roster of artists, a salon in Bozeman, and women who still send us photographs of their children.
Ceremony Bride is where that work lives. One place to see the portfolio, meet the artists, and begin the conversation. Built for brides, and for nothing else.
What we love is the early part — the first call, the trial, the long conversation about where the veil should sit and whether your mother is right about the earrings. We give it real time, because your wedding morning depends on decisions made months before it. By the time the day arrives, there is nothing left to decide.
The Half Nobody Photographs.
Hair and makeup is the part you see. The rest is logistics, and it decides how the morning feels.
We build the schedule for you and your entire party: who sits down when, who finishes when, how all of it lines up against the first look, the family photographs, and the drive to the venue. We speak with your planner so that nothing collides. We find out when your mother needs to be finished, so she has time to get your grandmother into her dress.
You will never see most of it, which is the point. It is also why you will be finished early, with time to sit down before anyone comes looking for you.
It takes an entire team to carry a wedding day. We are glad to be one part of it.
"The perfect balance of calm and hype girl, which was just what I needed in the middle of the biggest day of my life."
The Two of Us.
We take a limited number of weddings each season, and we are in the room for them.
Kirsten
The best part of working with our brides is watching the vision come to life. Learning about them, working alongside them, and then seeing their own natural beauty come through. It is such an honor to be part of the most important day of someone's life.
Alaina
I love collaborating with brides to arrive at the perfect look — the first call, the trial, the small decisions in between. But the part that fills me up is standing back on the wedding day and watching a bride feel genuinely beautiful in front of everyone she loves.
The Artists in the Room.
Depending on the size of your party, one or several of us will be with you on the wedding morning. You will know exactly who is coming, and you will have met them before the day.
Alana
As an esthetician and makeup artist, I’m passionate about the creativity and confidence that makeup can bring. To me, it’s so much more than enhancing someone’s features it’s about helping people feel confident, beautiful, and like the best version of themselves. I love bringing someone’s vision to life and seeing their face light up when they see the finished look.
Haley
As an esthetician and makeup artist, I am drawn to the creativity and the confidence that makeup can bring. It is so much more than enhancing someone's features. I love bringing a vision to life and watching a face light up at the finished look — knowing I helped someone feel beautiful in her own skin.
Macee
I love bridal hair because I love to be creative with hairstyles. Creating a look based off their inspo photos, dress or the overall vibe of the wedding. It’s very fun and makes the bride/bridesmaids more confident in their look. I also love bridal hair because it’s one of the many ways you can be apart and make someone’s special day and make all their dreams come true.
Vessie
As a beauty professional, I love helping my clients feel beautiful, confident, and like the very best version of themselves. Getting to be a small part of their special moments and creating memories they’ll cherish forever means so much to me!
Across
Montana.
We are based in Bozeman and travel for weddings throughout the state. Big Sky, Livingston, Paradise Valley, the Gallatin Valley, and beyond.
You may live here. You may be flying in to marry in a place you fell for on a trip and have thought about ever since. Either way, we come to you, and we bring all of it with us.
Let's Talk About Your Morning.
The first conversation is a FaceTime call with one of us. No pitch, no pressure — we want to hear about the day you are planning and let you get a sense of us before you decide anything.
