Welcome! Amber here! Amber Waves Bridal's owner. For years I have worked behind the chair and never branched out to outside venues, then, I moved 1/2 way across the state and figured "what better time to try something new?"

I still work behind the chair but on the weekends you can find me traveling all over central Illinois working on-site weddings. I wouldn't trade my job for the world!

Amber was my hairstylist for my wedding party of 9 and killed it. Amber created a timeline for us to stay on schedule and even finished early! Everyone loved their hair and it stayed all day. From start to finish she was excellent with communication and scheduling. She was detailed in my trial and really cared that I was happy with it! Amber was a joy to work with and I highly recommend her for any bride!

Henna by Heather

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.

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…
