BRIDAL SERVICES OVERVIEW
Each service is thoughtfully designed to support you through every moment of your wedding day so you can feel confident, prepared, and beautifully yourself.
-
THE BRIDAL PREVIEW
Your Bridal Preview is an essential step in creating a look that feels completely right for you on your wedding day.
During your Preview, you’ll meet your artist(s), refine your vision, and collaborate on a look that reflects your personal style. This time together ensures you feel confident, understood, and fully aligned before the big day.
Previews typically take place 3–6 months before your wedding at our beautiful studio in Chicago.
Because terms like natural and glam can mean different things to different people, the Preview allows for clear communication, thoughtful adjustments, and peace of mind knowing your beauty vision has been perfected.
Should anyone in your bridal party wish to book a Preview, the same pricing applies.
-
TOUCH UP or STYLE CHANGE
For brides who want to feel confident and polished from the first look to the last dance.
Touch-Up and Style Change services allow your artist to return at a pre-scheduled time to refresh your makeup, adjust your hairstyle, or transition your look from day to evening.
This service ensures you remain photo-ready despite weather, happy tears, or a full day of celebrating, offering peace of mind and a consistently polished appearance throughout your wedding day.
-
BRIDAL CONCIERGE
The ultimate luxury for brides who want seamless, attentive beauty care throughout their wedding day.
With Bridal Concierge services, your artist remains with you for up to six hours after your initial hair and makeup services are complete, providing ongoing touch-ups, refinements, and attentive support, allowing you to stay present, confident, and beautifully cared for from start to finish.
This elevated level of service ensures a calm, stress-free experience and flawless results, no matter what the day brings.
