I loved working with the LE Glam Team for my wedding day makeup! Erin and Lisa were extremely responsive and helpful whenever I had questions leading up to the big day. On the day-of, they arrived early and made me feel calm and at ease. I wanted a natural glam look for myself and my bridesmaids. Everyone looked and felt beautiful without looking overdone. For me personally, Erin and Lisa helped me tweak my trial look to exactly how I envisioned feeling on my wedding day - glam but still like myself.

Ashley Larae MUA 

5.0

Minneapolis, MN

    MAKEUP ARTIST ONLY Hello! My name is Ashley. I am a professional Minneapolis makeup artist with over eight years of experience. I worked for MAC cosmetics for almost 4 years and that is where I grew as a professional makeup artist. After working for MAC, soaking up all the trainings, learning from the best of the best and doing makeup on many clients, I knew I had what it took to venture off and start my own business. So, I did it afraid: In 2018 I started my own freelance makeup business-Ashley Larae MUA LLC. I couldn’t have done it without my faith in God.

    Awarded Best of Zola
    Ashley did my makeup as well as my mother’s for my wedding day, and there aren’t enough positive words I could use to describe the wonderful experience I had with her. She is so truly talented at her craft and is easy and fun to work with! I was very pleased with my trial run and she somehow perfected the look even more for the big day - I have never felt more beautiful than I did at my wedding thanks to the work she did. A true professional with an enjoyable personality and overall great vibes. Can’t thank her enough!

    Mandalin Collective Beauty 

    5.0

    Austin, TX
    • Team of 20
    • Starts at $625

    Welcome to Mandalin Collective! We encourage women to embrace all that they are. Every skin condition, ethnicity, body form and hair texture. Our goal at Mandalin Collective Beauty, is to make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself while keeping you looking like yourself.

    Awarded Best of Zola
    I know most glowing reviews start with, “I can’t recommend (insert name) enough!”—but seriously, I CAN’T recommend Mandalin Collective (MC) enough. Read on, thank me later. If you’re a SparkNotes kind of person, here’s the gist: Book MC. Every time you look at a wedding photo, you’ll think, “Woah, I looked GOOD.” Because you did. MC made sure of it. December 15, 2024—my wedding day. My hair and makeup stayed flawless all night: through happy tears, hugs, hours of dancing, and even a misty rain. I’ve never felt more beautiful, and I owe that to Mandie Murphree, the mastermind behind MC. From the trial to the big day, she thought of every detail, made me feel like a queen, and still surprised me with the sweetest appreciation gifts. The trial? A must. It let me tweak my hair, pick a lip stain that wouldn’t smudge on my husband, and gave me total peace of mind. Mandie’s attention to detail is unmatched. She created a seamless timeline for 9 bridesmaids, my photographer, and me—without stress or rushing. She was calm, organized, and a joy to be around. And just when I thought she’d done enough, she showed up mid-dance party to touch up my makeup. Now, here’s something unique—I didn’t just hire MC, I also had Mandie as a bridesmaid. She’s a dear friend, and I wanted her to enjoy the day with me. To make that happen, she handpicked Magdy and Mayra to handle glam for myself, my bridal party, and even Mandie herself! It was the best of both worlds—I got the full MC experience, and Mandie got to celebrate with me. Magdy and Mayra were incredible—on time, professional, calming, and the best energy to start the day. I cried 7.25 times, and my makeup stayed flawless. The proof? A photo of me at 2:30 PM during the first look vs. 12:30 AM post-reception. Still perfect. Fun fact: I actually debated on hiring MC—not because of quality (they’re top-tier) but because I wanted Mandie to truly be a part of my day. But then Zola (yes, THE Zola) recommended MC as a top pick, and that was my sign. Mandie and I figured out a way for her to balance both roles, and it worked out beautifully. One last perk? Airplane makeup. Yes, Mandie glammed me up before I jetted off to my honeymoon in NYC. Rockstar moment. Bottom line: Hiring Mandalin Collective was one of the best wedding decisions I made. Their professionalism, talent, and attention to detail ensured I looked and felt my most beautiful—something I’ll appreciate forever. So if you’re on the fence, take this as your sign. Book Mandalin Collective. You won’t regret it. Forever grateful, Natalie Neumann

    If you're a bride, you know that things have changed a little bit since the day you got engaged, you started making plans right away and every step it's a roller coaster of emotions that will follow you until your wedding day.

Chrys and her team had their hands full with 18 ladies for hair, 16 for make up and my bridal hair and make up. They were finished ahead of schedule and absolutely rocked every single head of hair and face of make up. I have a few people close to me who are not fans of getting their make up done and they couldn’t have been happier with the results. Everyone’s make up looked flawless and everyone’s hair absolutely stunning. Book Chrys and her team for every event you have!!! You will not be disappointed !!

    Barbie and her team were so amazing! I had four bridesmaids and two moms getting their makeup done on my wedding day, and everyone was raving about their makeup and hair afterward! Barbie and the team came to our hotel room and set up very quickly, working with a slightly smaller space than they are probably used to, and got everyone done quickly and efficiently, all while making the experience fun and exciting! I am a serious crier and kept losing it through the evening, but my makeup stayed in tact literally ALL NIGHT. I was so impressed and grateful. With Boss Beauty, you are getting quality makeup and the application is quick & painless - as someone who rarely wears makeup and can’t stand the feeling of fake lashes/cakey makeup, the soft glam was right up my alley and exactly what I wanted. I will definitely use Barbie again for my next event, and special shoutout to Shae for seeing my bridal hair vision and executing flawlessly!

    Emily and her team were amazing! I did a lot of research before booking hair and makeup for my big day and came across Beauty by Emily and couldn’t have booked with her sooner! Starting at my trial, she made me so comfortable and even sent a prep sheet on how to best prep for this. She listened very intently to what I was saying I wanted and took the time to go through inspo photos I had saved to pick apart what I liked and disliked. After the trial, she was communicative leading up to the wedding day. On wedding day, she was very adaptable, as we had a small space to set up in and the room got very warm. They worked promptly to get my bridesmaids, myself, my mom and mother in law all pretty for the day of. Everyone’s hair and makeup lasted throughout the wind and the tears of the day.

    Kelsey was absolutely amazing from start to finish. 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. She was so easy to talk to and immediately felt like part of the family while we were all getting ready together. I can’t recommend Kelsey enough. If you’re looking for someone talented, professional, and a joy to work with, she’s the one. 10/10!

    From the moment I reached out to Bree her communication was timely, efficient, and she was an excellent listener. The quality of her work was absolutely stunning - my hair and the bridesmaids' hair looked beautiful and so detailed. Even with all of my jumping around there was not a hair out of place! The stylists all took their time with each of us, and even stayed late to ensure my veil was perfectly placed without ruining my hairstyle. She made me feel like a true princess, and I'm so grateful for her polite, unhurried service that contributed greatly to making our special day perfect.

    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%.
