I cannot say enough amazing things about this team! From the initial inquiry, to booking, to the wedding day itself, the communication was absolutely fantastic, and everything felt so seamless and organized. Jenna was truly incredible and such a calming presence throughout the entire day. The moment she noticed I was starting to feel stressed, she immediately stepped in to help calm me down and made me feel completely taken care of. In the middle of such an emotional and hectic day, that meant more to me than I can put into words. She was not only so talented, but also so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. She has such a great personality, and I absolutely loved her energy and being around her throughout the day. I absolutely loved my hair and makeup trial, and Jenna made a few suggestions that ended up making the final look even better than I could have imagined.

You deserve to feel like the most beautiful version of yourself on your wedding day. The Bridal Beauty Team offers luxury, on-location hair and makeup services designed to be calm, personalized, and truly unforgettable. With award-winning artistry, years of experience, and a genuine love for celebrating every unique story, our team creates timeless looks that feel effortless, radiant, and completely you. From your first getting-ready moments to your walk down the aisle, we’re honored to be part of it all.

Working with The Bridal Beauty Team was nothing short of extraordinary. I booked with them somewhat far out from my wedding, but my call with Kate, the owner, as a consultation was a match right off the bat. She got to know me as a human not just a bride, and took great care in my vision for my day. Gina, whom I sincerely apologized to for all of my questions and emails (lol) was SO incredibly kind and patient and made any updates to our contract or services any time I asked! Now, onto the artists: I had my trial with Jeannette, who made me feel so beautiful and comfortable, I knew we were a good match! I felt confident with her as lead artist! On the day of, Jeannette, Myriam, Jenna, Lorena and Rene all exceeded any and all expectations. There were a total of 30 (I think) services being performed and I have never seen such a “well oiled machine” of hair and makeup before. They took time and care for each service but also moved so quickly that they were finished early. We didn’t have to start at 6am with that many people, which honestly, was a huge concern. Everyone felt and looked STUNNING and I truly could not stop staring at myself after my hair and makeup were finished. Haven’t gotten all of our professional photos back, so including what I can! Including a before photo, an after selfie, an iPhone photo at the end of the night & one of my professional photos from afar so you can see how glowy and dewy she made me look!

We’re from New Jersey, and this was our first time booking a hair and makeup team in Illinois — and wow, what an amazing experience! We initially booked Hairs2theBride for one event just for hair, but they were so good that we ended up booking them for our second event as well. We had to change the time for the second event at the last minute, and Mike was so accommodating — he even offered to bring in a third stylist to make sure we were ready on time. That level of flexibility and professionalism was such a relief, especially being from out of state. Hayley was amazing to work with. She completely exceeded our expectations — the hairstyles came out even better than the inspiration photos! She was kind, personable, and funny, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the process. Eva did a fantastic job with makeup. Her airbrush foundation was flawless and lasted all night. For our second event, Chrissy did our makeup and absolutely killed it — the eyeshadow especially was beautifully blended and truly to die for. Honestly, the hair and makeup were even better than some of the artists I’ve worked with in NYC for other weddings! Overall, we were so impressed with the entire team. The prices were affordable, everyone was professional, and they went above and beyond to make everything perfect. It genuinely felt like getting ready with family — warm, fun, and effortless. For our first Illinois experience, Hairs2theBride set the bar incredibly high. We truly hope we get to work with them again in the future!

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 had such a great experience working with SLT Makeup Artistry. Sarah made me feel so comfortable and SO beautiful on my wedding day! She is the nicest person. I gave her a few examples of what I was looking for with my hair and makeup, and she worked with me at the trial to find a look I loved! She incorporated the little changes I wanted to make on the weding day. They did such a good job getting all of us ready on time, and even managed to fit in my cousin who decided last minute to get her hair and makeup done! Bottom line- go with SLT you will not regret it! (Photos by This is Feeling Photography)

Noemi did a fantastic job with my (the bride) makeup! She listened to exactly what I wanted while giving suggestions to make it even better. I loved my makeup and lasted all night long!
