I had the pleasure of having Kesha and Reyna as my glam team for my wedding and could not have wished for a better experience. Right from booking, the Windy City Glam team was incredibly responsive and even accommodated my bridal trial on a Saturday morning so I could have my hair & makeup done for my bridal shower. Kesha and Reyna are both such sweethearts and brought calm, glamorous vibes to the wedding morning. I knew we were in great hands with them after seeing what a beautiful job they did at my trial. I am not someone who wears makeup on a regular basis and was concerned about not feeling like myself, but this fear was completely unfounded. They simply made me look like an elevated version of myself – polished and flawless for my wedding day. I chose Windy City Glam in part because of their expertise in glam waves, and Reyna executed these perfectly! Kesha truly went above and beyond, covering up my tattoo per my request and making subtle changes so my wedding day makeup photographed even better than my trial. She also returned the next morning to do my makeup again for my second ceremony, and went as far as to touch up my hair and help me into my dress when my mom and sister were nowhere to be found. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day and can only credit it to Windy City Glam. Hire them – you will not be disappointed!

Taylor Made Makeup was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day! Their communication was quick and kind, and the quality of their work was AMAZING. The makeup felt incredibly light on my skin, and as someone with sensitive eyes, my eye makeup didn't water or itch at all. The team arrived early, had a wonderful assistant named Alberta who did mine, my mom and my bridesmaids' hair - she was so kind, funny, and professional, we loved her vibe! They executed our exact makeup and hair vision perfectly. I always have a problem with a sweaty upper lip, but my makeup didn't budge all night.

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!

The IBEAUTY GROUP was a fantastic choice for our wedding beauty needs. Their communication was fast and thorough, always promptly answering any questions I had. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - detailed, flawless, and absolutely beautiful. Ulyana in particular was a standout, coming through for us at the last minute to help with an event. She was on time and ensured everyone's makeup looked stunning. Ulyana was also so sweet and kind to my daughters, which meant a lot to our family. I would highly recommend the IBEAUTY GROUP to any couple planning their wedding. They helped make our special day even more perfect.

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%.
