With over three decades of experience, Stacey has been the go-to stylist for some of your favorite TV shows (SNL, The View, CBS News, All My Children, to name a few). She is known in the industry as a trusted expert to craft and maintain her celebrity clients' signature looks.

Since creating Once Upon a Bride 24 years ago, Stacey has consistently curated spectacular bridal results and is deeply dedicated to each of her brides. You can trust that her process and her hand-selected glam team will bring your bridal vision to life, in a way that feels authentic to you.

As demand for her services grew, she opened Violet, a ladies-only speakeasy salon in Nolita. Violet’s popularity soared, and soon the cozy downtown space was filled with brides and ladies enjoying makeovers. It became clear that it was time to expand, so Stacey opened Loft 26 in the fashion hub of Chelsea, tripling her salon space. While continuing to serve her loyal female clientele from the Violet days, she expanded to include a barber to meet men’s grooming needs.
