Awarded Best of Zola
Windy City Glam is the best! I was so nervous picking a hair and makeup team but I am so glad I went with them. From the very beginning, they were extremely professional, responded to my emails right away, and never made me feel like I was asking too many questions. The website and instagram had ample inspo photos and videos and it made it very easy to understand what I wanted. From the moment I met Celeste and Reyna at my trial, I knew I had found my dream team at Windy City Glam. Celeste took the time to check ingredients in all of her products since I have extremely sensitive skin and allergies, and even had me test something weeks before the trial to make sure I wouldn't have a reaction. When I decided to change a few things from my makeup trial, she listened and made adjustments that made me feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day. I seriously have never felt more beautiful with my makeup than I did on my wedding day. I even had a guest ask if I did airbrush makeup because it looked flawless. Reyna's hair work was incredible, my style stayed perfect from the morning all the way until 2 am when the night ended. All my bridesmaids loved their hair and it lasted all night for everything. Reyna even did my little flower girls hair and they both looked adorable. Both of them showed up on time, stayed professional, and brought such a warm energy to my day. I cannot recommend Windy City Glam enough.

I simply cannot recommend them more highly or thank them enough. They made me (honestly all of us in the party, but this review is specifically from me/my point of view) feel like an absolute PRINCESS! I generally don’t like getting my hair and makeup done; it rarely feels like ME. That day she both made the experience and made me feel completely differently. I cannot thank them enough for the magical look and accompanying magical confidence that came with it. To be clear though, my gratitude doesn't stop there. I researched and received quotes from numerous vendors. Kiss This was not only the least expensive, but they went above and beyond to get to know me, my preferred styles and ideas, and everythinggggg else you could dream of ahead of time (I was coming from out of town so couldn't do a trial run). Even more, our stylist was LOVELY! We had so much fun with her! Not only can I not ask for more, but I couldn't even dream of a better experience. Genuinely, with all my heart and with all my gratitude, thank you.

I had the most amazing experience with this incredible hair and makeup team!!! I have never felt more beautiful or confident than I did on my wedding day. Alina was my makeup artist. She was incredibly upbeat, silly, happy, and had great vibes the entire time. I am someone who is incredibly picky about my makeup, and even considered doing my makeup myself on my wedding day. I'm so glad I didn't. Alina was super receptive when I explained what look I was going for. She checked in with me every step to make sure I loved it, and made sure my makeup was perfect for my wedding day. I cannot recommend her enough. I got so many compliments and felt amazing all day. Even through dancing and crying all day, my makeup stayed on and looked great for the entire day. My hair was just as stunning!! Sveta is so talented and can do so many stunning hair styles.

As a bride booking from the Midwest, I needed a team I could trust, and they exceeded every expectation. Even when I (admittedly) changed the schedule a million times, her and her team were incredibly patient, professional, and accommodating. They showed up with genuine enthusiasm and high-level skill that made the entire morning feel seamless. I gifted hair and makeup services to my bridesmaids, and it was worth every penny. My own hair and makeup were my exact vision come to life—I truly owe so much of my wedding day confidence to them! If you are looking for a talented, professional glam squad that travels to you, I cannot recommend them enough.

The team at IBEAUTY GROUP was a pleasure to work with for my wedding day beauty needs. From our first interaction, they were quick to respond, professional in their communication, and made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of my wedding, there was a lot of chaos, but the IBEAUTY team did not blink an eye and ensured I still felt comfortable and looked stunning. Their work was truly long-lasting and beautiful - I felt like the best version of myself all day long. I cannot recommend IBEAUTY GROUP highly enough for any couple's wedding day beauty services.

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%.
