I had the pleasure of working with Rachel & Heather for our wedding, and they truly made us feel like royalty. From start to finish, their professionalism, talent, and warmth exceeded all our expectations, making our special day even more unforgettable. Consultation and Trial: From our first meeting, Rachel impressed us with their thorough consultation process. She took the time to understand my personal style, preferences, and the overall theme of our wedding. The trial session was a wonderful experience where I could see her and Heather's skills firsthand. They were patient, attentive, and open to feedback, ensuring that every detail was perfect. I really appreciated the fact I could get both my makeup and hair done with the same company, and that my trial was included in the overall price! On the wedding day, Rachel and Heather worked their magic. Their attention to detail were evident. The makeup was flawless without feeling heavy or overdone, my bridesmaids and my mom and now husband's mom all decided to try lashes for the first time :). The hairstyles were elegant and held up beautifully throughout the day, despite hours of dancing and celebrating. Each look was personalized and perfectly suited to each member of the bridal party. The team arrived on time and prepared, which made the morning of our wedding stress-free and enjoyable. They managed their time efficiently, ensuring everyone was ready well before the ceremony. Their calm and friendly demeanor helped ease any pre-wedding jitters, creating a relaxed and fun atmosphere. We couldn’t have asked for a better hair and makeup team for our wedding.

From the moment we reached out, she was professional, super responsive, and so helpful with all of our questions—whether it was over email or text. At our trial, she gave great advice ahead of time about styles, lashes, hair extensions and accessories clips, which made the whole process stress-free. She did an incredible job working with both me and my wife, accommodating our different styles. My wife went for a more natural, barely-there look, while I wanted soft glam, and Kelsey nailed both perfectly! On the wedding day, she showed up ready to go and made the whole getting-ready process so easy and fun. Best of all, our hair and makeup held up beautifully all night long—through all the hugs, dancing, and happy tears! Beyond her talent, Kelsey just fit right in.

    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%.
