Elle Artistry

om 14 years old to 75 years old.  Every girl looked age appropriate and still like “them”…just a fancier version.   Guests kept coming up to the girls asking who did their hair and makeup and because it was gorgeous.  Just as important, everything stayed in place all day/night long.  Michelle and team were such a pleasure to work with and a lot of fun.  They were overly accommodating, responsive and personable. I knew from the start we were in really good hands.  Thank you for making me feel like a princess on my wedding day!  

lutely gorgeous and even better than what I had envisioned. My stylists for my look were Katie and Brittany and they were truly incredible. On top of everybody looking amazing, the whole process went without a hitch. Scheduling was easy and any questions and concerns that I had were immediately addressed. I could not have asked for a better beauty team for my wedding day. I would HIGHLY recommend Elle Artistry.

perience fun. I would absolutely recommend her team to anyone who needs hair and make up for their special day!

, flexible, and kind.

big weekend! They were always on time or early and we were even ahead of schedule on the day of. Nini and Isabel absolutely crushed my hair and makeup - I felt so beautiful and received so many compliments. They listen to what you want and ensure you feel good about it!! Thank you Michelle and Sam too for joining the fun and doing my bridal party!! Everyone was so happy with everything!!

paired with Alex again, as she had done my makeup previously, and I already knew her work was exceptional. Once again, the experience was fantastic. Alex listened carefully to what I wanted, and the final look was absolutely flawless. She has an incredible talent for enhancing your natural features, and I felt instantly confident and truly glowing. Isabel is a hair stylist extraordinaire! She created the perfect style—it was elegant, held all day, night, and even the next day (with a few minor touch ups) for the 2nd wedding I was attending! I received so many compliments and my hair looked stunning from every angle. She's not only incredibly skilled but also a joy to chat with. Elle Artistry really knows how to put a dream team together. They have alwasy been so professional, kind, and truly passionate about what they do. They didn't just make me look good; they made me feel amazing. If you want to feel your absolute best for any event, book Elle Artistry immediately! Highly, highly recommend!

ng and leading up to the wedding. They put together a day of schedule as well which was definitely needed for such a busy morning. I did my own makeup but I had Isabel for my hair and she was phenomenal. I did two trials because I was so indecisive and she nailed both. Even after the two trials I still ended up changing my wedding hair slightly and she executed it perfectly and exactly like my photo/how I wanted. When she showed me the finished look, I literally had no notes, and it stayed flawless all day and night without a single touch-up. Alexandra did the makeup for some of my bridesmaids and my mom, and everyone looked stunning. The looks were the perfect balance of natural and glam. Both artists were talented, punctual, and so lovely to have around on the morning of the wedding. Book Elle Artistry for your wedding - you won't regret it!

elt more beautiful and my maid of honor has never liked her makeup done professionally, except for this team. Cannot recommend enough!!

nd made me feel like the most beautiful bride!! They took thorough notes from my trial and made me feel even more gorgeous on wedding day. I cannot recommend them enough!

e looked STUNNING! I could not be more thrilled. I would 100% work with Elle Artistry for another event!

al party. Everyone looked stunning and we all received so many compliments on our hair and makeup. Alex and Katie were able to recreate multiple different looks and work with my very fine thin hair to make it look so full!

utiful the whole day! Scheduling was also very easy and Michelle and Taylor were extremely responsive whenever I had a question or needed to adjust something! I cannot recommend them enough!

Celeste absolutely nailed my dream wedding hairstyle. I had her make a few adjustments after my trial as I was concerned about my curls staying all night and they absolutely did! My wedding party (bridesmaids, moms and flower girl) loved their hair. Highly recommend using Elle Artistry for your big event!

rking with Elle Artistry was also extremely seamless. We connected on the phone and through email. I can’t praise Jamie enough for the way we connected and how she made me smile on my wedding day! Thank you for all the hard work in making my day so wonderful ❤️ Wedding: July, 11 2024

SO many amazing reviews, so I decided to book them for my wedding in December. Michelle was so professional and kind during the planning process, making sure to work around my schedule to plan out when the previews would be. Everything was detailed and made it so easy for me, the bride, to work with her team! My hair and makeup artist even came to my apartment in Chicago for my previews when I told Michelle that I couldn't make it out to their studio (!!!). The previews were amazing and my hair and makeup artist both listened so intently to what my vision was for my December wedding and made tweaks based on my feedback, too. I don't tend to wear a lot of makeup to begin with, so I was looking for a very relaxed, natural and romantic look for my wedding day. And holy cow, did they deliver. The team was prompt and on-time for the wedding day, they were fun to talk to and personable, which made me so much more relaxed that morning. The products were incredible - my makeup stayed on the entire day and lasted all night and my hair looked relaxed and romantic like I wanted, but still didn't fall all night! Even in the bright sun and FREEZING wind for pictures, both my hair and makeup still looked amazing. I couldn't recommend Elle Artistry enough - they were awesome to work with and made my wedding day vision come to life! Thank you thank you thank you!

out this, and they did not disappoint. The products she used were also high quality: I rarely wear make-up and my skin tends towards sensitive. That make-up was on for over 12 hours, and not only did it not bleed, my face is zit free 3 days later. The owner, Michelle, is also incredibly responsive. I had my schedule 2 months prior to the wedding date, and they easily made last minute adjustments based on my hair stylist's schedule. I would recommend them to anyone. Mackenzie herself was personable and detail-oriented. As you'll see in the photos: we all looked great.

me feel so beautiful. She took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted and graciously made adjustments whenever I asked. Her talent and attention to detail are unmatched, and her team was equally amazing. My bridesmaids looked stunning, and everyone felt so confident thanks to her artistry. I am so grateful to have worked with Michelle on such a special day—she’s simply the best!

chair, Michelle was professional, made me feel comfortable, and took the time to know exactly what I wanted. The makeup was flawless and stayed on the entire day and night. I absolutely loved my makeup. I highly recommend Michelle for any bridal party looking for a talented, professional, and personable makeup artist.

n the day of our wedding. The same was true of the rest of our beauty team, who made our whole bridal party look stunning. From giving my sister the tight curls of her dreams to giving my mom the light glam she wanted to giving me the sparkly vibe to bring my whole look together, I couldn't have been happier with this team!

. The owner Michelle is professional and was quick to find a replacement when the artist I had originally selected became sick before the trial and was unable to make it. I worked with Ciarra for makeup and Isabel for hair. Both were professional, kind, and lovely to work with. They helped me to step outside my comfort zone and try things such as fake eyelashes and curly hair. I was thrilled with the result! I rarely wear makeup in my daily life & my biggest fear was having too much on and looking unnatural - Ciarra was the perfect artist for me and enhanced everyone’s natural beauty without applying too much product. Isabel worked seamlessly with a variety of hair lengths, types, and textures and flawlessly incorporated my bridal hairpiece into the final style. I wanted a hair and makeup team who would make me look beautiful but still like myself, and Elle Artistry was exactly what I was hoping for!

ive and easy to work with the entire process. For the wedding, we had Aly and Alex as our hair/makeup artists. They were professional, fun to be around, and did a wonderful job on hair/makeup for everyone! Thank you for making me feel so beautiful for my wedding!

leste) were incredible to work with! There were 9 of us getting hair and make-up done and all of the stylists were timely and willing to stick around for extra touch-ups as well as helping a few of the girls that didn't get make-up done to help with finishing touches. My make-up and hair lasted all night despite a windy day and lots of dancing! I cannot recommend Elle Artistry enough and they really made my day so special!

tell that they were an incredibly experienced team. Taylor & Michelle were incredibly kind and quick to answer any questions we had leading up to the wedding day! The communication and professionalism from their team was impeccable. Michelle & Aly nailed my dream wedding day hair and makeup! They made my vision into a reality! Along with them and Jamie my bridesmaids were thrilled with how their services came out. On the day of my wedding the team brought so much fun energy and made our getting ready morning so memorable. I truly loved working with Elle Artistry!!

different looks and made each of us feel heard with our various requests and shared her experience and expertise when needed. She made changes upon request and always remained calm and patient. She made sure we were each happy with our looks. Nini is so talented, but her kind demeanor was as important to us as her talent. She was always patient, calm, and accommodating. The front office staff at Elle Artistry was incredibly responsive and flexible. Their emails were always prompt, and they were fantastic to work with. We can’t recommend them enough!

the bridesmaids and my mother. They also came to my apartment for the trial, so convenient! The communication from their team was impeccable and any questions or requests were answered immediately. Such a great group to work with and I highly recommend to other brides looking for a great hair and makeup team!

k to work with my changing wedding schedule. Jamie and Isabel were the absolute best! The trial was super smooth and hair and makeup looked even better on the actual wedding day. Thank you for making me look like a better version of myself on the best day of my life!

pretty! Can’t thank those ladies enough!

ments! Great job!!

p turned out, and my bridesmaids were all equally thrilled. Everyone looked and felt amazing, and I was impressed with how well everything held up through all the sweat and tears! We had a mid-May wedding in Chicago, but it ended up being a rather toasty day. The team was very professional and thoughtful in talking through any adjustments. Alex, Celeste, Nini, and Ciarra, truly did an incredible job and I'm so appreciative of all the work that went into making me and my bridesmaids look and feel so glamorous. I would 100% recommend Elle Artistry to anyone in need of hair and makeup services!

ime and were able to handle a ton of appointments. We even wrapped up early. All the women looked amazing and received what they asked for.

ials would occur and work through timelines. Not only were they so easy to work with, but I absolutely loved my hair and makeup on the day of- I looked like myself with some wedding glam! I even shifted styles slightly from my trials and the stylists were so accommodating. My mom had never had her hair and makeup done before and I couldn’t believe how much she loved hers too! Thank you so much!!

trial and the big day itself, everything was seamless and stress-free. Val's professionalism and expertise were evident throughout the process, and she effortlessly brought my vision to life with her incredible hair styling skills. On the wedding day, Val's punctuality and efficiency ensured a smooth experience, and when I saw myself in the mirror, I was blown away. My hair looked even more stunning than I had imagined, and I felt like a true princess. I can't thank Val and Elle Artistry enough for their exceptional service and talent. If you're seeking a hairstylist who will exceed your expectations and leave you feeling radiant, look no further than Elle Artistry.

r had my hair and make up professionally done for a wedding, so I was a little nervous going into the trial. I had Nini for my make up and Darlena to do my hair, and they both made me feel at ease and listened to all of my ideas for the style and type of hair and make up I wanted. On wedding day, they did an amazing job of listening to my feedback from the trial to make any necessary edits for wedding day. I wanted a natural look with my make up and curled tucked back hair, and it all turned out exactly how I envisioned! We had a cold, wet, snowy wedding day and both my hair and make up held up through outdoor photos at the lyric opera! Nini, Darlena, and Ciarra all did hair and make up for my 5 bridesmaids and 2 moms, and everyone looked gorgeous!!! They did an incredible job of giving each person the look they wanted, and everyone was so happy with how their looks turned out! The team also kept on track with the schedule Michelle and Taylor provided us for wedding day, which is so helpful because being behind on hair and make up can throw off the entire wedding day timeline - luckily this team was amazing and we were right on time as planned. After hair and make up we had plenty of time for touch ups and were able to ease right into our getting ready photos and the rest of the day. If you’re considering hiring Elle Artistry for your wedding, I HIGHLY recommend their services!

s so receptive to my vision and to making sure we were enacting it. (I wanted to look beautiful but also very natural, and the end result was PERFECT) She did an absolutely amazing job on my hair and makeup for both my trial (which I had right before my bridal shower) and for my wedding, and was so nice to have as part of both days - my best friend told me it made her realize how important it is to hire not only talented but also nice people, because you do spend a lot of time with them, and we so enjoyed spending time with Jamie. THANK YOU Elle Artistry!!!

ences. The team was attentive to feedback after my preview and easily incorporated the couple of changes I wanted to make for the wedding day. My mom and I both felt beautiful and great with our final looks. Additionally, both Aly and Nini were so friendly and kind. Leading up to the preview and wedding, Michelle and Taylor were great to coordinate with so everything was seamless. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for wedding day hair and makeup.

ok them!!! Shout out to Isabel, Jamie, and Rose! They were such a great ( and fun!) addition to getting ready, and made each bridesmaid absolutely gorgeous. Thank you Elle Artistry team!!

de me look and feel truly beautiful and she was so fun to spend time with. Her staff was amazing and getting ready with them made the nerves subside for a while! I would highly recommend anyone looking for the full package when it comes to bridal beauty, contact Elle. Their pictures and testimonies speak for themselves - our big day was better by starting it off with Michelle and her team!

cess. They were very flexible and understanding when my mom passed the month before my wedding, and even sent a sympathy card to my home. It was so extremely thoughtful. I want to give a huge thank you to our day of makeup artists, Alex and Jasmine. They made me and my girls look absolutely stunning! I would recommend Elle Artistry to anyone.

uld recommend to anyone and look forward to working with them in the future :)

up through them. The team communicated frequently with me up to the wedding day. They were very helpful and flexible with my needs. Caryn (make up) was so sweet and listened to everything I wanted. My make up turned out exactly as a I wanted it and stayed on all night even when it was hot. Darlena (hair) was amazing!! My hair trial was done on a humid 90 degree day and it stayed perfectly for 10+ hours, when my hair typically never holds a curl in any weather. She has perfected the hollywood waves. I even went to her to get my hair colored before the wedding and she matched my extensions to my hair. Overall, we had a great experience with Elle.

to respond, clear with communication and have reasonable prices. Val did a consultation with me two weeks before the big day and she was able to nail the look I was going for. The hair and makeup stayed in place all day and I didn't even need to touch up once! I was worried about wearing red lipstick and having it smear when kissing my husband but it stayed and looked great in photos. Would highly recommend for future brides!

l makeup, but Michelle walked me through the process and was so reassuring every step of the way. On the business side of things - Michelle is exceptionally organized (along with Taylor) they were always so quick to answer all of my questions, rearrange schedules, and Michelle herself stepped in to be my second artist when we realized I miscounted the number of services at the last minute. The morning of the wedding, Alex and Michelle literally felt like members of the bridal party. They were so sweet and made us all feel so comfortable and confident. When Alex finished my makeup, I literally gasped in disbelief in the best way possible. It was beyond perfect. Alex's skill and attention to details is off the charts. I was sad to wash it off at the end of the night because it still looked so good! Overall, I could not be happier with my deicision to book Elle Artistry and my only regret is not booking them for hair too. They are exceptional in every way. Thank you Alex and Michelle!

provided the natural look that I was looking for. She was also very sweet and flexible. She was able to come to my house for the trial, which was super convenient. Communication was always quick- they reached out to me to check in and confirm times a few times before the wedding. I would certainly book Elle Artistry for make-up needs in the future and recommend them to anyone who is looking.
