“Jenna and her amazing team provided both hair and makeup services for my wedding on June 20th, 2026. Jenna truly made me feel like a bride. I was so sad that I had to take off the makeup and take down my hair because it was just so perfect and even better than I ever imagined. I’m incredibly grateful for Jenna’s patience, flexibility, and for making me feel the most beautiful and confident I ever have! Jenna also worked her magic on my mom. My mom is someone who never changes up her hairstyle or typically wears a lot of makeup. Jenna was incredibly patient and made her also feel beautiful and confident! I’m extremely grateful and appreciative of her role in making my big day so special and memorable! Additionally, her amazing team Mahroza, Iliana, and Michelle V. worked their magic on my bridesmaids and both of my grandmothers. They were all incredibly patient and flexible, whether it was making due with limited counter space and chairs, and/or taking the time and care to fix and touch up the girls’ hair and/or makeup until they were completely happy and satisfied with the results. I can’t thank and recommend Jenna and her team enough; they are the best and ideal hair and makeup team to have if you want your dream wedding look to be achieved and for the stress of getting ready to be taken off of your shoulders. They allowed me to relax and to just be present and take in every moment of the morning.”

“Working with The Bridal Beauty Team was nothing short of extraordinary. I booked with them somewhat far out from my wedding, but my call with Kate, the owner, as a consultation was a match right off the bat. She got to know me as a human not just a bride, and took great care in my vision for my day. Gina, whom I sincerely apologized to for all of my questions and emails (lol) was SO incredibly kind and patient and made any updates to our contract or services any time I asked! Now, onto the artists: I had my trial with Jeannette, who made me feel so beautiful and comfortable, I knew we were a good match! I felt confident with her as lead artist! On the day of, Jeannette, Myriam, Jenna, Lorena and Rene all exceeded any and all expectations. There were a total of 30 (I think) services being performed and I have never seen such a “well oiled machine” of hair and makeup before. They took time and care for each service but also moved so quickly that they were finished early. We didn’t have to start at 6am with that many people, which honestly, was a huge concern. Everyone felt and looked STUNNING and I truly could not stop staring at myself after my hair and makeup were finished. Haven’t gotten all of our professional photos back, so including what I can! Including a before photo, an after selfie, an iPhone photo at the end of the night & one of my professional photos from afar so you can see how glowy and dewy she made me look!”

I went to a hair and makeup trial before the wedding, and both Eva and Maria were incredibly warm, friendly, and professional. They took the time to really listen to what I was looking for and made sure everything was perfect. I felt so comfortable with them, and they made the trial fun and relaxing. On the wedding day, we decided to add Natalia to the team after discussing with the owner, and it turned out to be the best decision. Having an additional stylist really helped speed up the process, and everything ran so smoothly as a result. They brought everything they needed, including lighting, and set up in no time. They were punctual, organized, and ready to get started as soon as we arrived at the venue. Throughout the morning, Eva, Maria, and Natalia were a joy to be around. They kept the whole group on time without making it feel rushed, which was such a relief with all the wedding-day chaos. They were also fun to talk to and kept the mood light, which made the getting-ready process so enjoyable. I had a bit of a rash on my shoulder that day, and I was really concerned about it. But the team worked their magic and expertly covered it – I couldn’t even tell it was there! They also added on makeup services for my mother-in-law at the last minute, which was so thoughtful. My mother-in-law was absolutely thrilled with how she looked and felt so special. In the end, I felt absolutely stunning on my wedding day, and I have "Hairs 2 the Bride" to thank for that.

Featured in Vogue, ELLE and Harper’s Bazaar, our artists specialize in bridal hair and makeup for brides and wedding parties.

“I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Chicago Bridal Artists, especially Romelia P. for makeup and Nina for hair! From the very first inquiry to the morning of my wedding, the entire experience was absolutely phenomenal. I originally reached out about 10 months before my wedding, and throughout the planning process, my vision for both hair and makeup changed quite a bit. The entire team was so patient, understanding, communicative, and accommodating every step of the way. They made everything feel so easy, which is exactly what you want as a bride! Romelia P and Nina are not only incredibly talented at what they do, but they both have the most wonderful, calming energy. I cannot emphasize this enough! I've been in weddings where getting ready feels rushed, stressful, or chaotic, and this was the complete opposite. They were so calm, kind, organized, and professional, and their energy genuinely helped me feel relaxed on such an emotional and exciting day. There was never a moment where I felt rushed or pressured. They simply made the entire morning such a positive, peaceful experience. Romelia P was an absolute dream to work with. I'm naturally a shy, especially when it comes to expressing what I want, and she made me feel so comfortable from the very beginning. She was incredibly patient, understanding, and genuinely encouraged my feedback. I also have acne scarring and skin texture that I'm self-conscious about, and she worked so beautifully with my skin without emphasizing any of those areas. She made me feel truly beautiful, and that meant more to me than I can explain. Nina was equally incredible! Watching her work was like watching an artist create a masterpiece. She is so talented, thoughtful, and receptive to feedback, and I absolutely loved how my hair turned out. Both my trial and wedding-day experience were everything I could have hoped for. We also had a group with a variety of hair types, textures, and makeup preferences, and both artists did such a beautiful job making everyone look and feel their best. Their versatility and attention to detail were so impressive. Everything ran perfectly on time, communication was excellent, and both artists were genuinely such a pleasure to be around. They are true professionals and absolutely phenomenal at their craft, but what really sets them apart is the energy they bring into the room. They made the getting-ready portion of my wedding day feel just as special as the rest of the celebration. I genuinely wish I could have Romelia P and Nina do my hair and makeup every single day! LOL I cannot recommend Chicago Bridal Artists enough. If you're a bride looking for incredibly talented artists who are also kind, patient, professional, and bring the most calming, positive energy to your wedding morning, look no further. Thank you, Romelia P and Nina, for making me feel so beautiful and for being such a wonderful part of my wedding day! I would choose you both a thousand times over!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about the glam team that made me, my bridesmaids, and my mom feel absolutely gorgeous on my wedding day. Selena has been with me through it all—my engagement shoot, courthouse wedding, trial, and finally the big day. She is truly phenomenal at what she does. Selena has such a great eye for what looks good, while also listening to suggestions and making sure her clients feel comfortable and confident. She doesn’t just “do makeup”—she creates a look that enhances natural beauty, lasts all day, and makes you feel your absolute best. Every time she worked with me, I felt like the most beautiful version of myself. Jeanette is a true hair artist. Her skills are top tier—she has the hands and vision to bring any hairstyle to life and somehow make it even better than the inspiration photo. She did my hair for the trial, and when I wasn’t sure if it was exactly what I wanted, she was so quick to suggest adjustments and work with me until I felt 100% confident. On my wedding day, my hair was everything I dreamed of and more—elegant, secure, and perfect from start to finish. Katie is so sweet. She actually did my wedding hair for my courthouse ceremony, and on the big day she took care of my bridesmaids’ hair and makeup as well as my mom’s. She made sure each one of them looked stunning while still feeling like themselves. The girls couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved their looks and how comfortable Katie made them feel during the process. And a special thank you to Colette, who handled all of the scheduling. She was so accommodating with my needs and always willing to adjust things when plans shifted. Having someone so organized and flexible made the whole process stress-free, which is invaluable when planning a wedding. This team went above and beyond to make us look and feel beautiful. Their professionalism, kindness, and talent made such a difference on my wedding day, and I am so grateful for each of them.”

“I LOVED working with Tricia. She made me feel comfortable giving feedback on any changes I wanted, and even made changes the morning of the wedding. We did numerous trials and she educated me which helped me make decisions that lead to what I actually wanted but I didn't know how to explain. During all of our interactions we laughed and she made the experience so nice. Would book again forsure!!”

“Rana was a dream to work with for my wedding day. Her communication was friendly and prompt, with sweet responses to all my questions and requests. Despite completely changing my hair and makeup from our trial, Rana made me feel beautiful on my big day. She was also incredibly flexible, accommodating last-minute requests for my mom's and sister's hair and makeup with no issue. Rana is so detail-oriented, listening carefully to exactly what I wanted and making sure I felt great on my wedding day. She customized everyone's look to their taste. I can't emphasize enough how accommodating Rana was throughout the whole process. She wants you to not just look good but feel amazing, and that radiance definitely shines through in her work. Rana is the best!”

“Erin and her team were the absolute best! From the beginning, Erin was extremely kind and flexible with me. When it came to making the hair and makeup schedule for the wedding day, she made fixes to the schedule anytime I had change or concern on being done in time for the photographer. She added on an extra hair stylist to come and took on the task of doing both hair/makeup to make sure we were all done in time. As well as preventing me from paying an extra fee at the venue to come in an hour earlier. I had Lorraina do my makeup and Rachel do my hair and they made me feel so beautiful. Lorraina provided me with a little emergency kit after my makeup was done for touchups and Rachel taught my MOH how to put the hair pins my hair for after the ceremony. They do an amazing job working with large wedding party's and made our moms/bridesmaids feel so beautiful for our special day. We highly recommend Erin Smith Beauty Creations!”
