She worked with me during the trial to find a style that fulfilled my vision and did an amazing job of integrating flowers into the style. We even changed the style up pretty significantly between the trial and day of and it turned out perfectly. I was so happy with how the make up turned out. I don't wear a lot of make up normally.

Barbie and her team were so amazing! I had four bridesmaids and two moms getting their makeup done on my wedding day, and everyone was raving about their makeup and hair afterward! Barbie and the team came to our hotel room and set up very quickly, working with a slightly smaller space than they are probably used to, and got everyone done quickly and efficiently, all while making the experience fun and exciting! I am a serious crier and kept losing it through the evening, but my makeup stayed in tact literally ALL NIGHT. I was so impressed and grateful. With Boss Beauty, you are getting quality makeup and the application is quick & painless - as someone who rarely wears makeup and can’t stand the feeling of fake lashes/cakey makeup, the soft glam was right up my alley and exactly what I wanted. I will definitely use Barbie again for my next event, and special shoutout to Shae for seeing my bridal hair vision and executing flawlessly!

Mandalin Collective Beauty

Austin, TX
  • Team of 12

You’re not just looking for a hair and makeup team. You’re looking for peace of mind- an experience that feels calm, organized, and completely you. At Mandalin Collective Beauty, we specialize in creating effortless, natural, and elevated looks that feel like your best self: refined, radiant, and deeply confident. From your trial to the final touch before you walk down the aisle, every detail of your beauty timeline is intentionally planned so your morning unfolds with ease. You’ll never feel rushed, overdone, or overlooked. Just calm, cared for, and glowing from the inside out. You are the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
I know most glowing reviews start with, “I can’t recommend (insert name) enough!”—but seriously, I CAN’T recommend Mandalin Collective (MC) enough. Read on, thank me later. If you’re a SparkNotes kind of person, here’s the gist: Book MC. Every time you look at a wedding photo, you’ll think, “Woah, I looked GOOD.” Because you did. MC made sure of it. December 15, 2024—my wedding day. My hair and makeup stayed flawless all night: through happy tears, hugs, hours of dancing, and even a misty rain. I’ve never felt more beautiful, and I owe that to Mandie Murphree, the mastermind behind MC. From the trial to the big day, she thought of every detail, made me feel like a queen, and still surprised me with the sweetest appreciation gifts. The trial? A must. It let me tweak my hair, pick a lip stain that wouldn’t smudge on my husband, and gave me total peace of mind. Mandie’s attention to detail is unmatched. She created a seamless timeline for 9 bridesmaids, my photographer, and me—without stress or rushing. She was calm, organized, and a joy to be around. And just when I thought she’d done enough, she showed up mid-dance party to touch up my makeup. Now, here’s something unique—I didn’t just hire MC, I also had Mandie as a bridesmaid. She’s a dear friend, and I wanted her to enjoy the day with me. To make that happen, she handpicked Magdy and Mayra to handle glam for myself, my bridal party, and even Mandie herself! It was the best of both worlds—I got the full MC experience, and Mandie got to celebrate with me. Magdy and Mayra were incredible—on time, professional, calming, and the best energy to start the day. I cried 7.25 times, and my makeup stayed flawless. The proof? A photo of me at 2:30 PM during the first look vs. 12:30 AM post-reception. Still perfect. Fun fact: I actually debated on hiring MC—not because of quality (they’re top-tier) but because I wanted Mandie to truly be a part of my day. But then Zola (yes, THE Zola) recommended MC as a top pick, and that was my sign. Mandie and I figured out a way for her to balance both roles, and it worked out beautifully. One last perk? Airplane makeup. Yes, Mandie glammed me up before I jetted off to my honeymoon in NYC. Rockstar moment. Bottom line: Hiring Mandalin Collective was one of the best wedding decisions I made. Their professionalism, talent, and attention to detail ensured I looked and felt my most beautiful—something I’ll appreciate forever. So if you’re on the fence, take this as your sign. Book Mandalin Collective. You won’t regret it. Forever grateful, Natalie Neumann

As a person who had never been glam before, Emily and Sarah made me super comfortable and had realistic expectations. THANK YOU for explaining why 18-inch extensions would be beneficial, and I am thankful for trusting you. My hair and makeup were freaking epic! I wanted old Hollywood Glam with smokey eyes and, being 48, requesting glowy skin instead of baked. Sarah made all my bridesmaids feel gorgeous with their makeup, and our hair was perfect! Most of my bridesmaids had been BM before, so they were expecting to feel insecure and not sexy. All five were so impressed they felt and looked beautiful. I have never been called "Stunning" before my wedding day. On that day, Emily and the team not only made me look stunning, but they also made me feel stunning. My hairstyle with the 18-inch clip extensions was done perfectly. My makeup lasted all night, and the glow that was used on my chest gave me the most beautiful glowing skin. Thank you so much!

I'd like to start off by saying that the quality of work was impeccable, she was honest in what worked and what didn't, she gave suggestions that were even better than what I had in mind, and delivered quality work whether it was the trial or the day of. Anastasia really loves what she does and that shows. Her enthusiasm really shows through and she thrives in this environment. On the day of my wedding she was on time, absolutely focused, and made everyone look beautiful. My hair maintained its shape for most of the night. I sweated and danced for hours and still felt beautiful. I would like to mention that we did change my hair after I decided to add a veil, so don't be afraid to do a second trial or ask her to change the style to suit your needs. She is very accommodating.

Makeup with Amber Helverson 

5.0

Malvern, PA
  • Team of 5

My name is Amber Helverson, and I have been in this industry for twelve years. My absolute passion is doing makeup, and making my clients feel their most beautiful. As a little kid I was always playing with my friends hair, and makeup, and just always wanted people to feel good about themselves. Being apart of someone’s big day is always such an honor because they’re trusting you to make them look, and feel their best, and that’s all I’ve ever wanted! Please note, we only offer makeup services, but can send referrals for hair stylists!

Ami and her team are absolutely amazing! We had the whole salon to ourselves, and were able to feel right at home. The entire team was phenomenal. All the ladies loved the hair and makeup and felt absolutely beautiful. The hair and makeup lasted all night even after all the dancing.

I just worked with Ann and her team for wedding hair and makeup and I cannot say enough good things. Ann is not only extremely talented, but her communication was clear and organized from beginning to the end. Ann made sure to note every little change from the wedding trial to the wedding day and did everything that she could to make sure I was 100% happy with the final look. We ended up with a HOT wedding day (90 degrees with an outdoor ceremony) and the entire bridal party’s wedding day beauty looked amazing all day! I felt so beautiful! Thank you Ann, Christy, and the rest of the team for all of your hard work.

About wedding beauty professionals

How much does hair and makeup cost for a wedding?

According to Thumbtack, wedding makeup artists cost $90–$475 per person on average in 2022. Here at Zola, we recommend putting aside around $300 for your own wedding hair and makeup. Services for wedding party members are generally less expensive, as the artist or stylist will spend less time perfecting the look. Be sure to have a transparent conversation with your wedding party if you expect them to cover their own costs.

How long does wedding hair and makeup take to do?

The more involved the look, the more time it will take. In general, allocate 60–90 minutes for your own looks and 30–45 minutes for each member of the wedding party. Extensions, extra thick hair, and intricate makeup all take longer. Communicating who (with pictures and descriptions) is getting what (again, with photos) to your stylists will help them plan an accurate timeline.

Who usually pays for hair and makeup for the wedding party?

Traditionally, whoever is asking for the services should pay. However, this may not be in the budget for every couple. If you’re planning on having your wedding party pay, be transparent when you first ask them to be in the wedding party itself. Then, they can choose whether it’s possible for them to participate.

How much should we tip for our wedding hair and makeup artists?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 15–20%.
