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!

She listened to what I wanted and made quick changes when I changed my mind last minute. Everything lasted all day and looked flawless in photos, I didn’t need any touch ups at all throughout the entire night (I even wore my wedding hair 2 days later). I have never felt more beautiful. I owe this all to Tiffany and would tell any bride to book with her if you want a flawless look to last your entire wedding. In addition to this all, she was kind, warm, easy to talk to, and very accommodating!

I did my trials for hair and makeup a few weeks before my wedding. They texted me a few hours later to see how everything held up and what I wanted to change. On the day of my wedding the helped me deal with the awful news that my venue would not be staffed for my wedding. They helped me get my mind off of all that and focus on my friends and the hair/makeup. We made the changes I wanted and I genuinely have never felt so beautiful in my life. My bridesmaids looked incredible as well. Were all different ethnicities, skin tones and hair textures and all looked amazing. They were efficient in our timeline so much so that we finished nice and early which allowed me to take a breather with all the things going on with my venue. The make up and hair held through tears, sweat, outfit changes, and head banging on the dance floor. I can’t thank them enough for making my wedding day the best it could be!

I searched a long time for the right hair & makeup vendor for my wedding, and I'm so beyond happy I chose Emily and her team! From the beginning, Emily was easy to talk to, transparent, and got back to me quickly with answers to all my questions. She also had so much great inspiration content on Instagram which was super helpful for me in deciding what kind of look I wanted. I loved having them there the morning of our wedding, they brought so much good energy and made everyone feel comfortable. What really stood out was how they actually listened to what I wanted instead of just doing their own thing. Emily and her team genuinely care about making you feel and look your best on your day, and I cannot recommend them enough!

Johan did such a great job with my hair and makeup for my wedding and she was amazing to work with! When I wasn't sure between two hair styles for the wedding we tried both for the trial. She listened to what I wanted and was open to changes when I requested them. The end result was so beautiful and it lasted the whole evening! Johan is so lovely to work with, she is so kind and friendly and really added to my wedding day experience. I would absolutely recommend Johan to anyone looking for hair and makeup services.

My European training at Dolores Academy, Makeup Atelier Paris, and ICONFACE shaped a signature style that blends luxury with natural beauty. In 2024, I worked with Miss Turkey at “Miss World” in Las Vegas, where my client was crowned the winner. I was also the personal artist and photographer of the late Iryna Zarutska, whose story touched hearts worldwide.

Working with IBEAUTY GROUP was such a great decision for our wedding day. They handled hair and makeup for me, my maid of honor, and my mother in law with incredible skill and precision. What really stood out was how organized and detail-oriented they were throughout the entire process—everything ran on schedule and felt effortless. Beyond their technical talent, she was so kind and personable, which made getting ready feel like hanging out with friends rather than just another vendor task. They communicated clearly every step of the way and kept the energy positive the whole time. I would absolutely recommend IBEAUTY GROUP to any couple looking for beauty professionals who care about both the quality of their work and the experience they create.

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%.
