I had such an amazing experience with the bridal beauty team!! The team was responsive, professional, and easy to work with. I went in to their Chicago studio for my makeup trial. Jeanette was fantastic - she looked at my inspo pics and asked me some questions and ended up giving me the natural, soft glam look I was envisioning! The day of experience was also great. I had two artists doing make-up for ten total women. They stuck to our schedule perfectly and were very professional when one of my ladies had very specific requests for her makeup. Everyone looked gorgeous! I highly recommend!!

Working with Jordan and Sam was a DREAM. I am someone who gets nervous having their hair and makeup professionally done and working with AfterGlo studio had me totally at ease. Myself and everyone else who had their hair and makeup done were very happy with the end product! My skin didn’t look cakey at all and they both nailed the look I was going for. Not only are Jordan and Sam extremely talented, they are also kind and accommodating people. It was so nice sitting and chatting with both of them for my trial and on my wedding day. When I sat down in Jordan’s chair to get my makeup done, it felt like catching up with an old friend. If I didn’t live on the other side of Michigan, I would DEFINITELY want to be friends with them. They truly are nice, talented people and I am so happy I booked them. They were definitely my favorite vendor to have and work with for our wedding. Thank you Jordan & Sam! 3 P.S. the look held up all night and they even supplied a cute touch up kit for everyone!

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.
