Bridal & Occasion Styling
Koralena handles bridal hair and makeup from the first trial to the last pin on the morning itself. We work from your dress, your venue light and how you want to look in photos, then build the style so it holds through a long day outside.
A style that survives the whole day
Wedding hair fails in the same places every time: the crown drops, the fringe separates and the pins start to show by the cake. We build the shape from a proper base with backcombing and hidden anchors, so the style looks the same at midnight as it did at the first look.
- A trial in the studio six to eight weeks before the day, so we can change anything without panic.
- Photos of the trial from three angles, in daylight and warm indoor light, so you know how it reads on camera.
- Makeup chosen to last through tears, rain and a long dinner, with touch-up items in a small kit for your bag.
- On-location service within the Uusikaupunki area, including a 6 am start for early ceremonies.
How the wedding calendar runs
Our summer books out earliest, so these numbers come from the last few seasons of actual bookings rather than a brochure.
Reading the dress before the hair
The neckline, the fabric and the veil decide more about the updo than any photo on a mood board. We look at what the dress does at the shoulder, then choose a height and silhouette that keeps the line clean.
I want you to forget you are wearing pins by the first dance. If the style needs adjusting every hour, I built it wrong.
Trial session
Two hours in the studio to test the updo, makeup and veil placement before the day.
Morning-of service
We come to you with everything needed for hair, makeup and a final check before you leave.
Occasion styling
Formal updos and makeup for guests, graduations and milestone birthdays without the full bridal package.
Bridal pricing
Every wedding is quoted after the trial, because hair length and the number of people in the party change the time needed. These are the package starting points.

What brides ask us most
Call the salon if your question is not on the list. Somebody will pick up between appointments.
Six to eight weeks before the wedding works best. That is late enough that your dress and veil are settled, and early enough to change the plan.
Yes, within 30 km of Uusikaupunki at no extra charge. Beyond that we add a travel fee based on distance.
We can start at 6 am for early ceremonies. The exact time comes from the timeline we build with your photographer.
Yes. The full party package covers up to four guests, and we can add more people for a per-head fee.
We test that at the trial and change the technique if needed, usually with a stronger set and more hidden anchors.
We keep fragrance-free and mineral options in the kit. Mention any allergies at the trial so we can patch test.
