Wingate Salon and Spa

Simply fabulous!

There was not one part of this experience that I was displeased with. The staff was professional, friendly and extremely talented. They knew exactly what they were doing and everyone in the party looked beautiful. I could not have been happier!

excellent service

This ended up being one of our favorite parts of the wedding day. They had recently opened the bride room in the building. A nicely decorated and clean room where they do your hair and make-up and give you food as well - very yummy scones - make sure you get them. They do have a spot for a dressing room but we did not use that as I live nearby. The photographer appreciated the space she had to photograph us. The staff was very professional. They made us feel right at home. We even really enjoyed the housekeeper, she was so nice running and getting all we needed. Their expertise is amazing and my entire party felt pampered and beautiful by the time we left. And the room was such a nice atmosphere to sit in and chat to ease the stress before the ceremony. At the wedding everyone commented on how beautiful the hair and make-up was for me and the bridal party along with my mom and my fiance's mom. Everyone was delighted for us! The bridal planner is so nice and she has such attention to detail. I must have changed things a million times and she did not even seem to blink at it - just made the changes and did most communication via email which I appreciated because I always had written confirmation.

My bridal party was lucky enough to book the bridal suite at the Wingate fairly last minute. We had been planning to get ready at my parent's house, but my mother suffered a heart attack earlier in the year and it was going to be too much to have everyone at the House. Jenn at Wingate came to our rescue. I did have to follow up a bit, but the actual day of the wedding went off without a hitch. Like most brides I did make a few last minute changes and making arrangements for a whole party of women can be a bit tricky, but everyone loved being at the Wingate and we also got excellent service and some amazing photographs!

Thanks to the Wingate for a truly special day and a great service for myself, my family and my bridesmaids. Manis and Pedis the day before all together was great fun. The day of the wedding we felt calm, cool and collected. The end results were amazing - the make-up beautiful, the hairstyles hip...yet classy! Special thanks to Julie, Sarah and the nail techs (sorry that I forget their names!). Thanks to all the other staff that helped us so much that day with last minute glitches with the limo!!!

Excellent people to work with. Sometimes response time on email or completeness of replies was lacking. However, I was planning from afar and all were extremely flexible and helpful.

The spa party brunch was wonderful!

The practice session for my hair took ten minutes and the day of my wedding over an hour and a half, this was time I needed to get ready. I was not crazy about my hair after all that time.
