ielle Beauty

  • Team of 7
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Essex, IL

The i·elle beauty team has 10+ years of experience in the bridal industry. It was founded in 2016 by AJ and Danielle as a duo. They now have a partnership with Macy, who is officially a co-owner. Specializing in bridal events, i·elle travels all around the Chicagoland and Nashville area to provide hair and makeup services.

I would absolutely recommend i.elle Beauty for your wedding day needs! They are extremely professional and amazing to work with. Danielle was super thorough from inquiry to the last moments of getting ready on wedding day. She took her time during our trial to fully understand what I was looking for and made sure that the end result was satisfactory. She also went above and beyond past trial to make sure that I was still happy with the results and fully prepared for the big day. I also appreciated the extra steps to make sure that every single person was taken care of and not just the bride! i.elle made sure they understood what my bridesmaids/mothers expected ahead of time and this made for a very smooth process for everyone! I had in total 11 people that used their services and every single person was happy with their result. The i.elle crew was fun, easy to work with, and brought the best vibes to our morning. If you're looking for a talented group and an overall non-stressful process, they are the perfect fit!

5 Stars isn't enough for One Salon and Bridal Co. Michelle (make-up) and Rochelle (hair) were my artists and they are incredible. They take the time to get to know you, are genuinely interested in your personal color scheme, and then work their magic. Both my hair and make-up withstood the day and night. Their prices are also very reasonable. If you're recently engaged and shopping around for hair/make-up for you and your party (or even for engagement photos), book these ladies immediately. You will be thrilled.

Hi there! I’m Jacquee. I am a licensed esthetician and freelance makeup artist. I was trained in makeup artistry and hair design at Make Up First in Chicago. My esthetics training was completed at the Universal Spa Training Academy in Downers Grove. So now that we’ve got that out of the way let’s talk about what I can help you with! I’m well versed in all areas of makeup from beauty and bridal to commercial, theatrical, and even special effects. I’m just as comfortable working on a film set as I am working with my brides. I enjoy making people feel good about themselves and I put my all into everything I do.

Jacquee was AMAZING to work with! She completely understood the vibe I was going for with my look and my mom's and bridesmaids' looks. She really listens and takes into account what her clients are asking for and their inspiration points. The morning of the wedding she and her assistant artist arrived exactly on time and they were both relaxed and friendly as they worked their magic. They made the morning run so smoothly. We all felt absolutely beautiful, and our hair and makeup LASTED through the entire evening. Could not have been more pleased!!

I am so, so appreciative of Cat and the team she assigned to my wedding. Cat was so understanding and lovely throughout my process. I'm pretty natural - I'm not terribly into makeup and the girly things in life so getting dolled up for my wedding took some getting used to! Lenee was a total pro with my hair along with my mother, MIL, and three friends. She was so patient and listened to what each of us wanted, and executed perfectly. She was also so lovely during my trial and to have in my suite the morning of the wedding. Amanda was our makeup artist and did she rise to the occasion! She was my third makeup trial and she nailed it. She gave me great advice ahead of time on how my makeup would lay better on my face. I did as she suggested and it really made a difference. We had a few others on the day of who had challenging skin and she also nailed it. She was so much fun to chat with and have around. Both Lenee and Amanda just gave us wonderful, positive, fun energy the morning of so I really could not have asked for a better team. Thank you, Cat, for providing such a nice experience for my wedding day! I will be forever grateful.

To me, changing someone's appearance is more than just changing the way they look, it is changing the way they feel. To be able to give someone more self-confidence is like giving someone a new outlook on life. I can absolutely say that I have one of the most rewarding jobs out there and that I love what I do!

Stefanie did our makeup for my wedding! She was absolutely amazing! She always responded back to me pretty much right away (even if I sent her a message or inquiry at random hours of the day or on the weekend). She was professional but yet personable. You can tell that she truly loves what she does and her passion shows through her work! I don’t wear makeup very often so I loved that she was able to give me a more natural look but at the same time allowed me to shine and look beautiful on my wedding day! She has the best attitude and positive energy! She’s the person you want with you, laughing and singing along to your pre wedding playlist helping you get ready and look stunning on your big day! 100% recommend!

Hi, I'm Danielle, I have been doing makeup for over 20 years! We are traveling, licensed and insured, professional makeup artists servicing Illinois and Indiana with prices starting at $80! Traveling Makeup Artists Specializing in Regular/Airbrushing, Bridal, and FX/Tattoo Coverage Makeup.

I loved how my girls and I looked on the day! Stunning work! However, I would just feel bad for future brides if I didn’t share that you need to be 100% on your timeline and # of people before you book. It is not an advantage to book early with them. Ended up paying about 6 services more than I used because of changes. I added a 4th artist and was totally fine with that fee her making a min of 5 services while keeping pay for all other artists as is, just bit the cost because that makes sense. However, my original contract with the owner had herself doing 5 people. When we added a second artist she was doing 4 but being paid for 5 to honor original contract. When going back to 5 she wanted me to pay again for that person, even though technically she was already being paid for 5 services and she was going to do 5 services…

It took me months to find a MUA for my wedding. When I found Nancy I was so impressed but nervous only because of my past experiences getting make up done. Nancy made me feel so comfortable, and listed and explained everything during my trial. I kept thinking like - everything could go wrong on the wedding day, but at least my makeup was going to look BOMB. Also, my MOH does not wear any make up. I was so worried because she was one of those “only a little of this and that” but Nancy did such an amazing job, my MOH was so happy!
