Haley, Katie, Eva and Sandy were absolutely amazing and I was so unbelievably impressed by the service the bride and the bridal party received that day. I was the matron of honor at my sisters wedding and Katie absolutely nailed my makeup and my hair was exactly how I wanted it from Sandy. Haley made my sister look absolutely STUNNING with the way she styled my sisters hair and gave her a supermodel like makeup look. Haley also did my daughter’s hair (she was the flower girl) and also gave me some pointers on skin care that had changed my life. Thank you HAIRS2THEBRIDE!

Skyler and Madison from LE Glam Team were great! Skyler made sure I felt confident and beautiful for my wedding. After our first hair trial, I second-guessed what I wanted, and she was more than happy to schedule another trial to help me find the perfect look. I have alopecia, and finding a hairstylist who is not only willing but genuinely happy to work with wigs can be challenging—but Skyler handled everything with care, skill, and positivity. I was really happy to learn that she had worked with wigs before and she was completely undaunted. She made the entire process easy, stress-free, and fun. On my wedding day, my hair looked perfect and held up beautifully all day. Thank you Skyler! Madison, who did our makeup, was also amazing - she has done my eyebrows for years and is the best of the best. Everyone looked stunning! My makeup didn't budge all day and night, and I felt so beautiful!

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!

Amber is an incredible person and artist. Her experience and talent made me feel at ease and excited for my big day from the moment I booked with her. As a makeup lover, I knew I was going to be particular about my glam for my wedding day. After learning about her years of experience, reading her reviews, and seeing her beautiful and diverse portfolio of work, I knew I needed to book with her. I'm so happy to get to add to her incredible reviews, because she was such an important part of making my wedding day the best day of my life! She was professional, kind, and SO much fun to hang out with while getting ready. My bridal party had a variety of different levels of comfort with makeup and types of coverage, and Amber and her second artist Shari went above and beyond making sure everyone felt beautiful. Everyone, regardless of age or style, was obsessed with their makeup. My makeup lasted all night--seriously. I'm usually quick to get oily, and I didn't need any touch ups beyond my lipstick the entire night. It also looked incredible in my photos. Her technical skills as a makeup artist combined with her personality and ability to listen to clients make her the perfect choice for your wedding day. You will look and feel beautiful, inside and out. (photo credit: Lisa Hornak Photography)

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%.
