Specializing in bridal events, i·elle travels all around the Chicagoland and Nashville area to provide hair and makeup services.

I would absolutely recommend i.elle Beauty for your wedding day needs! They are extremely professional and amazing to work with. Danielle was super thorough from inquiry to the last moments of getting ready on wedding day. She took her time during our trial to fully understand what I was looking for and made sure that the end result was satisfactory. She also went above and beyond past trial to make sure that I was still happy with the results and fully prepared for the big day. I also appreciated the extra steps to make sure that every single person was taken care of and not just the bride! i.elle made sure they understood what my bridesmaids/mothers expected ahead of time and this made for a very smooth process for everyone! I had in total 11 people that used their services and every single person was happy with their result. The i.elle crew was fun, easy to work with, and brought the best vibes to our morning. If you're looking for a talented group and an overall non-stressful process, they are the perfect fit!

Erin and her girls were amazing from the moment I first reached out. Erin was always quick to respond and was super helpful with the entire planning process. Before my trial, Erin had looked up my social media so she already knew my vibe (simple and elegant). I showed her a few pictures and she had great ideas for the hairstyle. She helped me find the perfect hairpiece that made me confident I didn't want a veil. A few weeks before our wedding, we realized we were going to have a time crunch and within a few hours (late on a Monday evening), Erin added two girls to help so we wouldn't be stressed for time. Cassie did all of our hair and my make up. She was fast, efficient and very down to earth. Micaela helped with pre curls and she already seemed like she was a pro. Kylie did makeup for my bridesmaids and they all looked gorgeous. I cannot say enough great things about Erin & her crew. You won't regret booking with them.

5 Stars isn't enough for One Salon and Bridal Co. Michelle (make-up) and Rochelle (hair) were my artists and they are incredible. They take the time to get to know you, are genuinely interested in your personal color scheme, and then work their magic. Both my hair and make-up withstood the day and night. Their prices are also very reasonable. If you're recently engaged and shopping around for hair/make-up for you and your party (or even for engagement photos), book these ladies immediately.

Anomalie Beauty was a dream to work with!! Dani is incredible! She made the entire experience super easy and she was available whenever I had a question. She was quick to help me find artists for my scheduled events and kept track of any changes based on availability. Every artist I worked with was on time, professional, respectful and really listened to me when I explained what I wanted and worked with me to achieve the perfect look. You could tell by the way that they each talked about their work that they were really passionate about what they were doing and really cared about how you felt and wanted to look and made sure you were completely happy before packing up.

Sarah Tjaden did our hair for my wedding! She was absolutely amazing! She always responded back to me pretty much right away (even if I sent her a message or inquiry at random hours of the day or on the weekend). I was indecisive about how I wanted my hair so on the day of my wedding I completely changed it compared to how we did it at my trial. She looked at my inspo pic and did my hair the exact way and it turned out perfect, better than I imagined! She has the best attitude and positive energy!

Nancy was AMAZING to work with! Nancy was my MUA for my wedding during the hot month of August. I was afraid that due to the hot weather my makeup would melt off, but it did not! Throughout the whole night my makeup stayed intact - despite being done early in the morning. My makeup along with the rest of my bridal party stayed on throughout the whole night - and we all loved it! Nancy is the sweetest person, very professional, and is super attentive to detail. I would definitely recommend her for any events that you may have, because I sure will :)

Noemi and Tiffany did such an incredible job!! They are both so sweet and so talented and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. My makeup was perfect and lasted my whole 5am to midnight day; I have no idea how but I guess Noemi is magic! Same thing with my hair! Not a strand fell out of place all night and even though the day off I wanted to change my hair style from how we trialed and I stink at explaining what I like; Tiffany read my mind and made my hair truly amazing. Not only am I so please with how my makeup and hair turned out; my bridesmaids, which are all so different in their styles, ALL loved their look and could not stop raving about how they all looked. Lastly, my mom never does her hair or makeup and it was a fight to convince her to even on my wedding day and somehow Noemi and Tiffany did the perfect amount that made her feel comfortable and also so beautiful; she could not believe how she looked and she even loved how she turned out in photos, which is hard to do! I seriously cannot thank these 2 women enough for the hard work so early in the morning that made me and everyone feel so beautiful!
