“I cannot recommend Bridal Beauty Team enough! They handled hair and makeup for my entire bridal party (13 people), and every single person looked and felt beautiful. My lead stylist, Angelique, was a total dream to work with. During my trial, we played around with a few looks, and when I decided to make some changes for the actual wedding day, she executed them perfectly. She listened to exactly what I wanted and made me feel like the best version of myself. If you want a team that is professional, talented, and truly listens to your vision, hire them!”

“Windy City Glam is hands down the best makeup team you could ask for. I first got to experience their work at my sister’s wedding and knew that when I got married I had to have the same team!! They were one of the first vendors I booked and I have never felt so beautiful!! Lily worked magic on me at both the makeup trial and the wedding day. Originally we thought we would do airbrush but during the trial when it was not looking good, Lily was honest and said we should try normal foundation and I am so happy she did that. I felt flawless on my wedding day and got so many compliments! They are the only team I recommend when anyone has a wedding in the Chicago area!! You won’t regret going with this team!”

    “I can’t say enough great things about the beauty team I had. Brenda did phenomenal on my makeup! I was happy crying all day and night and my makeup held up the entire time. She listened to what I wanted and made my face feel weightless even with a full face and foundation! Mercedes did wonders with my hair and the curls held all night even through jumping, crazy wind, and a handsy groom lol. She’s the sweetest and so supportive of whatever I wanted. Eva did fantastic with all of the hair and makeup she did for my girls also! Huge thanks all around the such a fantastic team. Overall communication was great prior to booking and died down a bid in the middle of the experience and towards my wedding but I’m guessing that was due to it being a busier time of year. At the end of the day I’d highly recommend them though, especially the fantastic artists that I had the pleasure of working with.”

    We are not like the other beauty pros. It’s not about the latest trends or building our portfolio, but rather we approach every wedding with a simple focus: Allowing your true beauty to shine through, with a little extra oomph, on your big day. Let us help you feel like your most confident self as you celebrate the commitment between you and your partner.

    “I cannot recommend Angelica highly enough! She was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day. From our initial consultation to the big day itself, her professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail were truly unmatched. Finding a great hair and makeup artist was extremely important to me since it can make or break your wedding photos. I don’t wear a lot of makeup in my everyday look so it was important for me to find an artist that would keep my makeup soft and glowy while also photographing well. Angelica took the time to understand my vision, perfectly blending it with her expertise to create a look that made me feel like the best version of myself. Angelica was also extremely flexible and understanding. During my trial, we planned big Hollywood waves and soft glam makeup. On my wedding day, I decided to change it up and go with an updo to better compliment my low back dress. She didn’t even question why I wanted to change it up. She truly made me feel so comfortable and confident. My hair and makeup stayed flawless throughout the day and night, despite it being an outdoor wedding in Florida along with all the dancing and happy tears! What stood out the most was her calming and friendly presence. On such an emotional day, having someone so kind and reassuring made all the difference. She even went above and beyond to make sure my mother, sister and mother in law looked stunning as well. She also brought along a content creator (with my permission) talk about having a full celebrity moment! If you’re looking for someone who will make you feel beautiful, confident, and stress-free on your special day, look no further than Angelica. She truly is exceptional at what she does!”

On the wedding day, she was prompt and full of great energy. She made everyone look and feel beautiful. She made me feel not only beautiful, but like myself not overdone, not like a different person. Just me. And that boosted my confidence more than I can say. Thank you for making my day perfect.”

          Hello future brides and grooms! I’m Yaricza, but you can call me Yari. I’ve been a makeup artist for 11 years, and for the past five, I’ve poured my heart into my own small business. To me, makeup is so much more than just a transformation—it’s about the way you feel the moment you look in the mirror. I’m a firm believer that great makeup starts with great skincare, and I pride myself on connecting deeply with every client I serve to ensure you feel like the best version of yourself on your big day.

          “Yari at YXO Beauty was an absolute dream to work with. From the very beginning, she completely calmed my nerves while I was searching for the right makeup artist for my wedding. Her work is truly amazing she is a real artist and a professional. Her standards are clearly high, and it shows in every detail of her work. On my big day, she made me feel absolutely beautiful and confident, which meant everything to me. She made sure i was satisfied. All of my bridesmaids loved their makeup as well. Yari has an incredible ability to tailor each look to the individual while still delivering exactly what each person envisions. Beyond her talent, her energy is so joyous and uplifting that it fills the room. On such a big and emotional day, she brought not only exceptional quality but also incredible vibes and that is truly priceless”

            My name is Torie Conn. I work full-time as a Professional Makeup Artist in Chicago, and wherever my clients take me. With over a decade of experience working in commercial, editorial, and Film/TV, my passion is Bridal Makeup. I adore forming a relationship with my brides, focused on one of the most important days of their live. My one on one process allows my brides and I to create a timeless beauty look for their special day. My goal is to make my brides look and feel like the best version of themselves!

            “From my trial, to rehearsal dinner, to wedding day, Torie made me feel like my most beautiful, best self. During my trial, she gave me some amazing recommendations that transformed my skin throughout the months before wedding day. Come rehearsal and wedding day, she listened very intently to some of the slight changes I wanted to make and executed flawlessly. I have never felt prettier, but also still myself, than I did on my wedding day. And that makeup LASTED ALL NIGHT. And to top it all off, she is such a joyful presence. I was very intentional about wanting to hire vendors who added a positive presence to the day and Torie did just that. I would recommend her a million times over!”

              Eliora, Kristin and Lauren come to you with too many years of experience to count (it would give away our ages!) in the hair and makeup industry. All professionals trained with various backgrounds (from theater to photography), they came together because they had the same idea for a bridal team: talent, professionalism, customer service, get the job done ON TIME and leave with everyone smiling.

              “We had a great experience with We Only Do Pretty! We had them do hair and makeup for me (the bride), all the bridesmaids, MOB, MOG and the flower girl and everyone loved how their hair and makeup turned out. I prefer a more natural look and Eliora and Taylor did an amazing job with the very limited input I provided. I have been in several weddings and this was by far the most relaxed getting ready I've had and we were done early! Would definitely recommend We Only Do Pretty!”
