Jamie was an absolute makeup and hair superstar! I asked for a natural soft glam look and she delivered above my wildest expectations! The hair looked as ethereal as I dreamed! Working 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

I actually found out about Elle Artistry through The Knot, after looking through so many of the hair and makeup recommendations from my wedding planner. Michelle and her team had 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!

Mackenzie was so efficient! I couldn't believe how quickly she got through all four of us. We had a diverse group, and she was able to work well with all skin tones. I was picky about 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.

I cannot recommend Michelle and her team enough! From start to finish, Michelle was incredibly communicative and made the entire process seamless. On my wedding day, she truly made 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!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Michelle for my bridesmaid makeup for my brother and sister in law’s wedding, and I couldn’t be more happy. From the moment I sat in her 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.

Elle Artistry was an absolute pleasure to work with! Our stylist, Jamie, made us feel so confident in our looks after doing our bridal preview and absolutely killed the execution on 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!

Elle Artistry did a fantastic job with my wedding hair and makeup! I did a bridal hair and make up trial for me, and wedding-day services for myself, three bridesmaids, MOB and MOG. 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!

I had a wonderful experience using Elle Artistry for my September 2024 wedding! From the beginning, I felt very comfortable with the whole team. Michelle and Taylor were communicative 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!

I absolutely LOVED working with everyone at Elle Artistry! The admins were incredibly responsive when it came to coordination and logistics and the stylists (Mackenzie, Val, and Celeste) 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!

From my first correspondence with Taylor & Michelle, I could 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!!

We highly recommend Elle Artistry in general, as well as Nini, a makeup artist who was wonderful to work with.
Nini was the perfect match for our wedding party. She created four 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!

I booked Elle Artistry for hair/makeup for our wedding this past August and I was absolutely obsessed with all the looks. The girls nailed my bridal hair and makeup as well as all 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!

I booked Elle Artistry for my wedding day after receiving a glowing recommendation from one of my bridesmaids, and I was not disappointed! I was SO happy with how my hair and makeup 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!

I recently had the pleasure of entrusting Elle Artistry with styling my hair for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. From the initial communication to the hair 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.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Elle Artistry for my March 2024 wedding! They are responsive, timely, and talented team of hair and make up artists. I’ve never 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!

I absolutely loved working with Elle Artistry and with Jamie! Their whole team is so kind and sweet and answered my zillions of questions, which I really appreciated, and Jamie was 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!!!

Elle Artistry provided excellent services for both me and my mom on my wedding day. Aly did our hair and Nine did our makeup. They both tailored each style to our individual preferences. 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.

Elle Artistry was amazing to work with! They were recommended to me by my friend who is a wedding planner, so you know they are good! I loved that you could book both hair and make 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.

Val was my makeup artist and she did an incredible job! My hair and make up plans fell thru a month before my wedding date and Elle Artistry totally saved the day. They were quick 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!

I truly can't explain how happy I am that I booked Elle Artistry for my bridal makeup. Alex and Michelle were my artists and their talent is unmatched. I was SO nervous about bridal 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!

Elle Artistry was a great choice for my wedding make-up. I went to college with Michelle and was excited to be able to book her business. Nini was my make-up artist and she really 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.

From the beginning, Michelle and the team were super responsive, which was a great sign we hired the right people for the job.

I hired Elle Artistry for my December wedding, and my bridesmaids and I could not be happier with how our hair and makeup turned out! We had the pleasure of working with Sofia (hair, including mine), Tania (makeup, including mine), and Jamie (hair + makeup). All of them were spectacular. They were each so knowledgeable and patient, and able to understand from a few photos or words what I or my bridesmaids were looking for. We all looked so beautiful and glam while still looking like ourselves! I am still in awe of what an incredible job they all did.
On top of it all, Michelle handled all communication and was so easy to work with - I so appreciate her responsiveness and organization. She even added a third stylist because my ceremony was at 1 PM - it was so nice to not have to start before 7 AM!
Elle Artistry has a really talented team on their hands. You can’t go wrong with anyone on their team!

I booked Elle Artistry for my wedding and couldn’t have been happier with them. Michelle was very responsive, organized, and accommodating throughout the planning process and on wedding day. Everyone looked amazing and was so happy with their hair and makeup! I highly recommend booking Elle Artistry!

You could not ask for a better team for your hair and makeup on your wedding day! They did an absolutely stunning job! I did not have to worry about anything hair and makeup related on my big day because of how amazing Michelle and her team are. Do no hesitate to book them!

I am SO glad I found Elle Artistry! We used them for makeup for the entire bridal party (including moms and grandmas!) and everyone looked absolutely beautiful. They were so easily able to adapt to different types of skin (mature, sensitive, oily, etc.) and were super patient with the ladies in my party who had never gotten their makeup professionally done or worn lashes! And I really cannot emphasize enough how stunning everyone looked. Everything from the initial reach out to the day-of was super easy and seamless. Highly recommend!!!

I hired Elle Artistry for make up and hair for my wedding on 8/20/2022. I specifically requested Michelle for make up. In addition, we had the pleasure of working with Jamie (makeup + hair) and Celeste (hair), and I cannot say enough good things about each of them! On the wedding day they showed up right on time and were so excited to get started on me, my bridesmaids and moms. They were very organized and kept well within the timeline to get us all glammed up.
Not only that, but the Michelle was incredibly thorough throughout our entire wedding process. For a very type A bride like me, I really appreciated all of Michelle's proactive communication, advice and detailed oriented mindset. From initial booking, to trials, to wedding day, and everything in between.
Thank you so much for making us look and feel so beautiful. You are a VERY talented team :) Highly recommended Elle Artistry!

I recently got married and had an amazing experience with Elle Artistry! I loved being able to pick my hair/makeup artists, they came to me for the trial and every one of my bridesmaids loved their look on the morning of the wedding. Working with Michelle during the months leading up to the big day was so great! I don't often get my hair/makeup done and she was very supportive and addressed all concerns I had prior to the wedding, which allowed me to have a stress-free morning. I can't recommend them enough!

Must hire!! Michelle’s professionalism and communication was exceptional. She gave me the perfect hair and makeup team to make my entire bridal party feel confident and beautiful within their own styles. My incredible hmu team (Aly & Alex) were very responsive to my preferences and made sure I felt so special- during my trial and day-of. Michelle created the day-of schedule and my hmu team arrived early/prepared so everything ran SO smoothly. Everything lasted all day without one need to touch up (even though I was given a touch up bag too!). Definitely recommend hiring Elle Artistry- you won’t regret it!

Michelle is a rock star. I'm so glad she was with us on my wedding day to make everyone look and feel their best. She's so great at taking in inspiration and feedback and creating a beautiful look. She has such great energy and definitely made the very stressful and nerve-wracking bits of getting ready much easier. She worked with so many personalities with ease and a smile. She is so easy to talk to and you can tell she cares about what she does.

I can't speak more highly of Elle Artistry after they did the makeup for my wedding day. I had reached out to Michelle after a makeup trial with a different vendor hadn't gone the way I'd hoped. Michelle got back to me right away and made sure I was set up to trial with Tania soon after.
Not only do Elle Artistry stylists travel to you for your trial (which I very much appreciated due to COVID precautions and ease of scheduling), but Tania was truly a godsend. Tania listened to my concerns, discussed what I wanted, and chatted with me like an old friend throughout. By the end of the trial, I was blown away by how beautiful I looked and felt (even without my hair done and in regular clothes)! I knew I needed to book with her ASAP for my wedding day. Michelle continued to be wonderful with communication moving forward.
When my wedding day rolled around, it felt amazing to go into the morning confident with how my final makeup look would turn out. Tania was on time and was her perfectly lovely self as she glammed up my entire bridal party, mother, and grandmother. All my ladies were so impressed by how talented and wonderful Tania was. She really made everyone, including myself, feel like the most beautiful woman in the room!
I was given a cute little bag filled with extra lipstick, powder, hair ties, etc. to have with me throughout the day! I reapplied my lipstick all day and was so thankful to have that opportunity. Their team really thinks of everything a bride needs so you don't have to!
Believe me when I say, I would hire Tania and work with the Elle Artistry team again and again. My wedding day wouldn't have been the same without them!

Michelle is the best MUA in town! She took time to do multiple trials with me to ensure we knocked my vision/glam out of the park. Her team was timely day of, kept to the schedule and even made sure to stay and do touchups for all girls. She prepared a cute day of bag for me with all the makeup essentials. Michelle goes above and beyond and my whole party looked AMAZING! Book her for your wedding makeup!!! Easy decision!

Michelle and her team are great! I first worked with them as a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding and chose them for my own wedding after that! Every single person on her team does amazing work, and they are all so professional! I had a large bridal party, and they were so efficient and punctual, which made my day start so smoothly and stress-free. I felt so beautiful at my bridal shower (after my makeup trial) and at my wedding and received so many compliments on my makeup! I highly recommend Michelle and her team!!

I booked Elle Artistry for hair and makeup for my wedding and each of my gals looked flawless!! Michelle was always quick to respond and thorough throughout the planning process, and super accommodating with my last minute change requests. For both my bridal trial and the wedding day, I worked with Michelle and Aly who were both super consultative and they took the time to understand my aesthetic and the look I was going for. Jamie also nailed it with my bridesmaids' looks. The ladies at Elle Artistry are all so sweet and talented, I highly recommend!

First, thank you Michelle for being beyond flexible with scheduling a trial AND pushing services back to a completely different day as our wedding date changed from Covid and weren’t charged a single cent above what was originally asked - truly amazing!
A HUGE thank you to Val for my bridal hair and makeup - I felt regal, sassy and sparkly! I looked like the belle of the ball all thanks to her! Fantastic communication with what I liked and preferred. Recommend Val for everything!!!
Special thank you to the additional ladies of Elle Artistry - arrived to our hotel DOWNTOWN of all places on time, prepared, happy, lively and ready to get the bridesmaids feeling and looking gorgeous.
Truly outstanding services from this whole team. If you don’t have Elle Artistry for your special day, you’re missing out!

It was such a pleasure working with the team at Elle Artistry. I felt so beautiful and loved how my look as well as my bridal party’s looks turned out. Michelle, Aly, and Sara took great care in executing gorgeous make-up and hairstyles and ensured everything ran smoothly during getting ready. My hair trial also went seamless and Michelle and Aly provided valuable input as I finalized my look for the day. Thank you Elle Artistry team for your sunny and warm dispositions during our wintery getting ready day and your responsiveness to emails and professionalism leading up to it!

I had such a great experience with Michelle! She was recommended to me by my cousins wife and I couldn’t of been happier! I only had 1 trial with her before my wedding because I was so in love with her work. The final result was EXACTLY what I wanted & this is coming from someone who doesn’t wear a lot of makeup to begin with. To be honest, I was nervous because I am very picky about my makeup and she DELIVERED. I would recommend Elle Artistry 1000x over. And Michelle is just the sweetest person ever and was always on top of it when replying to my emails. Loved everything about my experience with Elle Artistry!

I worked with Michelle, Sofia, Val, and Alaina and they were all wonderful! During our trial, my wife and I were clueless on the hair and makeup style we wanted. They were patient, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful in our decision making. On wedding day, everyone was prompt and the entire bridal party was thrilled with their hair and makeup. I cannot recommend Elle Artistry enough!

I found Elle Artistry on the internet and was hesitant to hire them because no one I knew could vouch for them. Michelle was incredibly thorough and helpful in her communication; answered every question, was forthcoming with information I didn't know to ask, and proactive about scheduling.
I had a trial with Jen, one of my makeup artists. Jen was amazing! She came to apartment, was very respectful of COVID, and did a great job! In my day to day, mascara is my only makeup, so after Jen did my makeup initially, I didn't recognize myself. I communicated this to Jen who wiped my face clean and started over, she asked exactly what I wanted and did exactly what I envisioned.
On wedding day, Jen and Danielle arrived on time, were very respectful of COVID, and did a great job! They stayed on schedule, were very patient when we weren't ready to fill their chairs, and did all of our makeup exactly as we asked.
Everyone looked amazing, they were amazing, hire them!

Working with Michelle and Elle Artistry was seamless! Very prompt with responding to e-mails and organizing for the big day. I appreciated the team coming to my house for my trial as well. I felt the team truly wanted me to look and feel my best on my wedding day! The day of everyone was on time and even brought their own set up with chairs which helped alleviate any stress. The environment on the wedding day was both fun and professional. You can tell these ladies are experts in the wedding hair and make up field. I am still in awe of how amazing my make up and hair looked! And stayed ALL night! Truly incredible and top notch! Highly recommend working with these lovely ladies and thank you all again:)

Hiring Elle Artistry was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day! They were the fastest communicator out of all of our vendors and clearly communicated pricing, which I appreciated. Michelle (owner) was great to talk with throughout the entire process and was even better during my trial and the wedding day. We had Michelle for hair and Celeste for makeup, and it felt like my bridesmaids and I were getting ready with our friends! Our hair and makeup lasted all day and looked just as good at the end of the night as it did in the morning. Michelle even went above and beyond when we had someone in our wedding party decide they wanted to get their makeup done last minute. Instead of saying no since, she made it work for us since we were a little ahead of schedule. 100% hire Elle Artistry!

Working with Elle Artistry for my wedding day was a true joy! Michelle stuck with me through my postponed 2020 wedding and was very flexible and understanding when I needed to make schedule changes. Day-of, Michelle did my whole bridal party's makeup and Alaina did everyone's hair. Every single girl and mother looked absolutely perfect and we finished right on time! They both listened to exactly what I wanted and were so willing to make adjustments when I asked. I felt so beautiful and exactly like how I always dreamed on my wedding day thanks to them!

I was SO glad we were able to find Michelle for our wedding glam! She handled the makeup for myself and all of the bridesmaids. From the beginning she made me feel so comfortable and so gorgeous on my wedding day and I'll be forever grateful! Michelle is incredibly talented and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for wedding makeup.

Michelle was an absolute joy to work with. From our initial conversations to rescheduling due to the pandemic, Michelle was consistently responsive, flexible, and willing to help in any way possible. She is a PHENOMENAL makeup artist and gave me the perfect look for my wedding day with minimal direction. I didn't ask her to change a thing even during my trial. I have never felt more beautiful and confident than I did on my wedding day. You will not regret booking with Elle Artistry. THANK YOU MICHELLE!!!

Elle Artistry was truly a joy to work with! Besides being an incredible makeup artist, Michelle is super nice, organized, and prompt about responding to emails. Since I know very little about professional makeup, I really appreciated her help in choosing my look! On the day-of, she and her team created such a fun, relaxing atmosphere and made us all feel gorgeous – Aly was my hair stylist and I was so happy with it! Huge thanks to Michelle & her team!

Michelle and her team made me feel so I credit relaxed and calm on my wedding day. It was such a fun atmosphere with all of the ladies there - I’m super nervous about other people doing my hair/makeup (mostly bc of social anxiety 😂) but these folks truly gave me the VIP experience. I cannot recommend them enough!
