Our experience with Windy City was phenomenal! We did our own makeup but I got my bridal hair done and 3 of my bridesmaids got their hair done as well. Our hairdresser got our hair to look exactly how we wanted. Truly everybody was so happy with their hair. There were some things that I wanted changed since my trial, and she totally nailed it on the wedding day. She even touched up my dad’s hair a little bit, even though he wasn’t included in the list of people that I provided. Thank you!

    I cannot say enough amazing things about this hair and makeup team! From start to finish, they were truly a dream to work with. Laci, the owner, made the entire planning process so simple and completely stress-free. She was organized, communicative, and so easy to work with — exactly what every bride hopes for. The hair and makeup trial was incredibly helpful, especially since I wasn’t sure what style I wanted. They guided me through different looks, helped me figure out what I liked, and made the whole process fun and reassuring. On the wedding day, Tiffany did my hair and makeup and she was absolutely PERFECT. She made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself — genuinely the most beautiful I have ever felt. Her talent is unreal, and she somehow knew exactly what would look best on me. My bridesmaids were also obsessed with their hair and makeup. Every single one of them loved that their look could be customized to match their own style and personality. Each girl had a different hairstyle, and all of them turned out gorgeous. The whole team was so sweet, encouraging, and calming throughout the day. They even took the time to do touch-ups and made sure my flower girl’s hair was picture-perfect too. Their kindness and professionalism made such a difference on such an emotional morning. I HIGHLY, wholeheartedly recommend them to any bride. They are truly the best!

She is meticulous, professional, and uses high-quality products that truly make a difference. After my trial, she made thoughtful adjustments so that everything felt perfectly “me” on the big day. What really impressed me was how natural everything looked and felt—my skin looked like skin, the lashes were so comfortable I forgot I was wearing them, and the glam lasted all day without ever looking heavy or fake.

    Rie is a NYC/Long Island based makeup artist/hair stylist for Beauty, Fashion, Portrait Photography, and Weddings. ​ All the makeup products in Rie's kit are cruelty free. Rie's style is "Natural" and "Feel like yourself but better" makeup look!

    Awarded Best of Zola
    Rie was a lifesaver! I had initially reached out to a different vendor in September of 2024 and we had an ongoing conversation while I considered pricing through November. We had a verbal agreement to work together but before she sent me her contract she ghosted me. I thought it was because the holidays were coming up and we all get busy at the end of the year. But mid-January come along, I had not heard back, and I was a little over two months away from my wedding! I reached out to a ton of makeup artists, and Rie was among the first to respond. She was so understanding from the get-go and her kindness paired with her makeup style was what sold me! Immediately, I knew she was who I wanted to work for. Rie provided makeup services for me and five of my six bridesmaids by herself. She was even able to work with me to find time to do a makeup trial despite both our busy schedules (getting married in the off season I'm sure helped). She worked so efficiently and even finished before our scheduled time, and provided us all with little touch up kits. I tend to not wear too much makeup and the same goes for most of my bridesmaids, and Rie was able to take her "natural makeup" style and personalize it to everyone. I only wear makeup on special occasions, and when I do, I tend to be hyper aware of my face and the makeup on it. But Rie's application was so good, that I did not think about the makeup on my face once throughout the ten hour day. The natural makeup style might not be for everyone, the same way full glam is not for me, but if you lean that way, I highly recommend working with Rie!

    Makeup with Amber Helverson 

    5.0

    Malvern, PA
    • Team of 5

    My name is Amber Helverson, and I have been in this industry for twelve years. My absolute passion is doing makeup, and making my clients feel their most beautiful. 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%.
