Delaney and Krista and everyone I worked and communicated through with LE Glam Team were amazing. From start to finish they executed mine and my girls hair and makeup vision(s) perfectly!!

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 can’t say enough wonderful things about the glam team that made me, my bridesmaids, and my mom feel absolutely gorgeous on my wedding day. Selena has been with me through it all—my engagement shoot, courthouse wedding, trial, and finally the big day. She is truly phenomenal at what she does. Selena has such a great eye for what looks good, while also listening to suggestions and making sure her clients feel comfortable and confident. She doesn’t just “do makeup”—she creates a look that enhances natural beauty, lasts all day, and makes you feel your absolute best. Every time she worked with me, I felt like the most beautiful version of myself. Jeanette is a true hair artist. Her skills are top tier—she has the hands and vision to bring any hairstyle to life and somehow make it even better than the inspiration photo. She did my hair for the trial, and when I wasn’t sure if it was exactly what I wanted, she was so quick to suggest adjustments and work with me until I felt 100% confident. On my wedding day, my hair was everything I dreamed of and more—elegant, secure, and perfect from start to finish. Katie is so sweet. She actually did my wedding hair for my courthouse ceremony, and on the big day she took care of my bridesmaids’ hair and makeup as well as my mom’s. She made sure each one of them looked stunning while still feeling like themselves. The girls couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved their looks and how comfortable Katie made them feel during the process. And a special thank you to Colette, who handled all of the scheduling. She was so accommodating with my needs and always willing to adjust things when plans shifted. Having someone so organized and flexible made the whole process stress-free, which is invaluable when planning a wedding. This team went above and beyond to make us look and feel beautiful. Their professionalism, kindness, and talent made such a difference on my wedding day, and I am so grateful for each of them.

I absolutely love working with Brides helping them feel confident and beautiful on their way to say I do. 💍I would love to help you check Hair & Makeup off your list!

Awarded Best of Zola
Omg - from trial to wedding day, Cheryl was amazing! She listened to everything I had in mind for my full look, took into consideration my skin and hair types, then worked her magic. I was blown away by the results, and even the fact that my curls and makeup stayed on all night long afterwards (my hair never holds a curl when I do it myself and I rarely wear makeup so my skin wasn’t use to it). After that, Cheryl had great communication leading up to my wedding day, providing a schedule, sending over prep directions to share with everyone, and even letting me know she picked up a new product she couldn’t wait to try on my skin. On my wedding day, Cheryl and Selina worked so hard to achieve all of the bridesmaids looks and recreate my look even BETTER than it did at the trial, if that was even possible! With 6 girls getting hair and makeup done, plus me as the bride, Cheryl & Selina were able to finish everyone ahead of schedule!!! They felt like they were apart of the girl group and joined in on and made conversation with us, contributing to the good vibes going that morning. I HIGHLY recommend Cheryl/Willow Magnolia Beauty to anyone looking for a hair & makeup artist who can do it all! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, and so did my girls!

As a little kid I was always playing with my friends hair, and makeup, and just always wanted people to feel good about themselves. 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!

I can’t say enough great things about Amber. From the get-go, she was so warm, welcoming and so very kind. Through email communication to our first trial, it felt so natural and fun and I felt like we clicked immediately. Our trial was fun and she made me feel very comfortable to express things that I liked, didn’t like, or things I may not have been comfortable with. I made a last minute color pallet change from our trial to wedding day and she was on board ready to go. My nerves were so high the day and she was able to pull me out of my anxiety and nervousness and allowed me to take any space or simply acted as a really wonderful sounding board as I was expressing any of my insecurities. She made me feel strong and beautiful and she kept her positive composure throughout the entire (long) morning. Her second artist, Sandra, was a saint and really rocked it. It was really important for me to find an artist who works well with mature skin also, I wanted everyone to feel beautiful. My mom and mother-in-law looked STUNNING! Amber is a pure soul with a beautiful talent - I am so pleased to have booked with her. : Kasie Romagno Photo

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%.
