Engaged? Engage a Mantra stylist to see you through



Katie Hennen, Wedding Coordinator
I met Nick the summer before my senior year when we both worked at Dairy Queen in the Crossroads Mall. The next spring, in the parking lot of Val's, hasked me to my senior prom. Five years to the day after that prom, we married. 
  
But let's not skip the engagement period. As the song says, "True love never runs smooth," and I still remember sitting in my stylist's chair complaining about Nick taking over our registry while I stepped away to take a phone call. That's how we ended up with all red kitchen appliances. My stylist at the time kept me grounded--kept me from going crazy by reminding me of what my wedding day truly was all about. 
   
Wedding planning is fun but also stressful! The stylists and I at Mantra Salon and Spa are excited to support you through the whole process--from the engagement through the wedding, and beyond. We specialize in the art of beauty--inside and out.

Mantra will make your wedding day "Simply Stunning!"

Read what our most recent bride has to say:
"Monica and all of the amazing staff at Mantra, thank you so much for making us feel beautiful for our wedding!
You ladies all did a wonderful job!! Each of my bridesmaids have individual styles and you really listened to what they wanted. Your girls are all very talented. A special thank you to Katie for doing such a great job coordinating everything! You were great to work with and went above and beyond to make a fun experience for us! It was great to bond with my girls at your beautiful salon. I can't wait to share photos with you. Lastly, thank you Monica for doing such an amazing job with my wedding look. I loved everything about it!
Thank you all so much for helping make my day so special!"

As wedding coordinator at Mantra, I can assure you we can do simple, rustic, big or bold.

We can start months before to help you relax with a facial using only the best treatments from Repechage. We also provide services in full-body hair removal using the Nufree system. 

Scheduling a Brazilian Blowout prior to your big day will assure your hair is in top condition. We also offer trial updos for a discounted rate. Maybe you are in need of some hair extensions to add length or volume? Our hair extension captain, Toni Harms, is certified in Babe Hair Extensions and can help give you the look you desire where Mother Nature may have failed. We also have four custom-built pedicure stations and two manicure stations, a perfect fit for the entire wedding party!

Check out some of the amazing hair styling work from our very talented stylists on our Mantra Salon and Spa Facebook page or follow us on Pinterest! You can also find us in the Central Minnesota Wedding Association's wedding planner and on their website.

The day of your wedding, I will be on the premises to attend to all your needs while you get pampered with your hair, makeup or nail services. We also provide coffee, tea, ice water and muffins and offer two upgrades: the "Mimosa" upgrade and the "Bloody Mary Bar" upgrade. Ask me for more information! I can't wait to meet with you to discuss your big day!
