Haley, Katie, Eva and Sandy were absolutely amazing and I was so unbelievably impressed by the service the bride and the bridal party received that day. I was the matron of honor at my sisters wedding and Katie absolutely nailed my makeup and my hair was exactly how I wanted it from Sandy. Haley made my sister look absolutely STUNNING with the way she styled my sisters hair and gave her a supermodel like makeup look. Haley also did my daughter’s hair (she was the flower girl) and also gave me some pointers on skin care that had changed my life. Thank you HAIRS2THEBRIDE!

    I had both my makeup and hair done by Anastasia, and it was truly an incredible experience. Her team also worked with my mom, my sister, and two of my friends. Everyone arrived on time, and the atmosphere was so cozy and relaxed — it felt like getting ready with close friends. Before the wedding, I did a trial session where we discussed everything in detail and made a few final adjustments. On the big day, I felt absolutely beautiful. What I loved the most is that Anastasia has a very modern style — her hairstyles are contemporary and elegant, and her makeup is fresh and natural. My makeup lasted perfectly all day long without feeling heavy on my skin. I still looked like myself — just enhanced, glowing, and confident. The hair was absolutely stunning: it stayed flawless the entire day, but at the same time felt soft and flexible — no stiff hairspray buildup, no heavy, uncomfortable feeling. I changed my look three times during the day — from soft waves to an elegant updo — and Anastasia stayed by my side through every transition, helping and supporting me. Honestly, her style is simply the best. As a model, I’ve worked with many stylists before, but this experience was truly on another level. The quality of her work, her attention to detail, and the way she made me feel — I haven’t encountered anything like this in a very long time. It was an unforgettable experience, and I’m so grateful I chose her!

We did a trial run and it was just beautiful and they accepted and wanted feedback from the trial. They asked for inspiration pictures and were able to achieve the look I was thinking of. As someone with naturally curly hair, looking for a hair stylist that understands and can make my hair look good was something important for me. Prior to wedding day, they asked for inspiration pictures from the bridesmaids. There were 7 girls getting hair and makeup or just one service. The stylist had schedules and we were able to have everyone done in time. We had a great morning with Michelle and Monique and we all looked so great all day long. The airbrush makeup is in fact cry proof. So glad to have found a glam team that was understanding, fun, professional, and amazing !

    Amber was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day glam. From our first communication, she was responsive, fun, and clearly an expert at her craft. On the wedding day itself, Amber made me feel comfortable and confident, like we were old friends catching up over makeup. More importantly, the final look was incredible - my makeup was flawless, beautiful, and stayed perfect all night long on the dance floor! I truly felt my best self thanks to Amber's talented work. Considering her skill level, her rates are very reasonable. Amber is a real gem in the wedding world. If you're a bride searching for a beauty pro, look no further - Amber will understand exactly what you want and make it happen!

    • Starts at $400

    I’ve been creating Glam and natural Bridal looks for over 3 years and learning the latest trends with makeup in New York. What started as a hobby led me to launch my business as a freelance makeup artist three years ago and I’ve since been certified by Lauren D’amelio, Kryolan Cosmetics and twelve international artists from The Makeup Lovers Conference. I also work with editorial clients creating daring yet on brand looks. I have an upcoming project to execute the makeup vision for an ad campaign in Times Square for ShopYahaira Shapewear. Make sure to look out for it!

    Maria Pennacchi Makeup was an absolute pleasure to work with for my daughter's wedding day. Maria was very quick in responding to any questions that we had and was accommodating to making sure she gave us enough time to work with us that morning. She is so easy to talk to and listened when you wanted to add or change something. Maria's quality of work was outstanding - she applied our makeup very naturally and lighter so that there was room for changes. The makeup lasted throughout the entire day and wedding, and Maria made us look extra special. As an extremely experienced makeup artist, she really listens to what you want to look like for your special day. Maria made this experience with getting our makeup done a joyful one.

    Being a curly-haired bride, I was very nervous about finding a hairstylist who could tame my mane for my wedding day. After speaking with Sophia, all of my fears melted away. She reassured me in her abilities to give life to my curls with her tiny curl wand. I don’t think my curls have ever looked better in my ENTIRE LIFE; I cried when I saw myself in the mirror because of how beautiful I looked. My bridesmaids (who have a variety of hair types) had hair that was equally as stunning and were just as pleased as I was. My hair lasted all day (through lots of dancing) and was only held in place by five bobby pins; Sophia is a magician! In addition to her hair abilities, Sophia brought such a positive and warm energy to the bridal suite. She was also incredibly thorough with instructions, information, and schedules leading up to the day. I can’t recommend Sophia enough for hair 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%.
