    Amazing Bridal/ Bridal Party Hair & Makeup

    I am so grateful my wedding planner found Liz! She is absolutely wonderful & her work is stunning. She did both my hair & makeup for my wedding. I also had her do both hair & makeup for my bridal party, mother, & mother-in-law. Liz was so great to work with – she was very accommodating in terms of scheduling my hair & makeup trial as I live out of state & had to plan things during short trips home. The planning forms/ portal were very helpful in helping not only myself, but my bridal party think about what they wanted in terms of their hair/ makeup look. Liz was very organized & had provided me with a day-of schedule a week in advance which was helpful in terms of planning & making sure we all stayed on schedule. I absolutely loved my hair & makeup – it wasn’t “too much” & looked natural – but still made me feel beautiful. My bridesmaids all looked stunning – as did my mother & mother-in-law – who both particularly loved the fake eyelashes. I would highly recommend Liz to anyone looking to have their hair & makeup done for a special event (though I’d love to have her do my hair & makeup everyday)!

    ideal hair and makeup

    Liz at Lovely Elegance did a phenomenal job with hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids. She came out to my house 2 months prior to the wedding for a trial and I was so happy to discover how easy going and fun she is. Plus the hair and makeup looked gorgeous. I looked like myself - which was very important to me- but elevated. Plus - the hairstyle and makeup lasted ALL night in 80 degree weather with high humidity.

    Thank you, Lovely Elegance!!!

    Lovely Elegance is INCREDIBLE - do not look any further. Liz was such a joy to work with and always responded timely, professionally, and with helpful insight. I was so excited to work with her after our trial and on the wedding day she surpassed all my expectations. I am generally pretty critical of my make-up when it’s done professionally (largely because I don’t wear much in everyday life), but could not have asked for anything better! I had one slight tweet from the trial that I asked Liz to make and she was so receptive and instantly adapted. On the morning of the wedding, I had 17 ladies getting make-up done, which Liz and the other two stylists handled SO well. Liz worked with me up-front to make a schedule and was so flexible day-of when things got switched around a bit. They even finished ahead of style and had us all ready 30 minutes before planned, which was the first time I’ve experienced that before a wedding, which provided stress-free time to just all enjoy the moment. On top of that, everyone was absolutely raving about the make-up all day and well after the wedding. I couldn’t feel more fortunate to have worked with this amazing team and HIGHLY recommend them!

    Absolutely Wonderful

    Liz did a wonderful job. One of my biggest concerns was how my big day was going to flow. We were responsible for decorating the ceremony site and reception room but couldn't get into the venue until mid-morning day-of so having someone who was able to come to me was a HUGE help. It was also really nice to have a trial run for both hair and makeup. I was kind of at a loss of what I wanted for makeup and Liz did a great job with helping me on that front. My face stayed looking great throughout my photos. For my hair, she did a wonderful job at the trial but I wasn't quite crazy about it. There was just something a little off but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I emailed Liz after trying to explain what I wanted changed (and did not feel like I did a great job explaining it...) and sent her some photos from multiple angles of another bride's hair that I liked (found them online looking through other wedding photos). I thought about doing another trial just because I was a bit concerned about how my hair would turn out but as we were tight in the cash department, decided not to. The day of, Liz did an ABSOLUTELY amazing job. Exactly what I was looking for. I was so amazed that she could do exactly what I wanted based on what I thought was a horrible description and some additional photos that I sent her. If I had to do it again, I might have thought a bit more about how I'd like my makeup done but I wouldn't have changed anything about my hair. What to expect - the contracts definitely intimidated me at first but my advice to you is not to let them! She was absolutely wonderful to work with, friendly, and very responsive. At the trial, for me, she did one make up look, and two hair looks (both half-up, half-down but changed the styling a bit). It didn't last quite as long as I expected. Day of, she was extremely accommodating - my mom and my husband's mom both decided they wanted their hair done by Liz last minute and Liz was able to get them in (probably helped that I didn't have any bridesmaids who got their hair and makeup, though). In the end, I would say her services were worth every penny. If you compare her prices to some salon prices, it's not that much more and to have someone who is willing to come to you takes off a HUGE stress (or at least it did for me). I would definitely recommend her!

    Book them!!

    I had nothing but an incredible experience with Lovely Elegance. From the trial to the finished product on the wedding day they were incredibly kind and extremely helpful. And they are so talented at what they do! My hair and makeup was exactly what I wanted! They were so accommodating to everything that I needed/wanted and I couldn’t recommend them more! Kenzie and Liz were a dream to work with! And my bridesmaids, MOH, and mother completely agree - their hair and makeup also looked stunning! Plus, they are affordable! Oh - and my hair and my makeup stayed in tact all night!! :)

    Amazing On-Site Stylists

    Everyone I worked with at Lovely Elegance did an outstanding job from start to finish. They really wanted to make my vision come to life and worked so hard to get there. My hair is really tough to work with and Kenzie styled it with such grace on our wedding morning and it didn't even look crunchy or overdone with product at the end. And they travel to you, wherever you may be, which made everything so much easier the morning of the wedding. Thank you so much to Kenzie & Liz, and to all the other women who worked with my bridesmaids!

    Great to work with, stress-free! Highly recommend

    Liz was wonderful to work with and was very attentive to feedback I shared from the trial as well as giving suggestions. The questionnaire she uses I thought really got to the core of what I wanted her to know about me and how I wanted to look on my wedding day. She was very prompt over email and overall a pleasure to be around on a stressful day. It was so nice not to have to worry about hair and makeup being an issue because I trusted it would turn out well!

    Exactly what I envisioned!

    My stylist Hannah was meticulous and extremely detailed. I could tell she had a ton of experience with bridal updos, which put me completely at ease! We made some changes after my trial and all of them were incorporated beautifully on my wedding. My bridesmaids also loved their hair, and my mom loved hers too! The makeup was probably my most favorite though. Hannah did a custom foundation blend that made my skin look flawless but not fake...way better than an airbrush look! The look held up for the entire day and looked amazing in photos!

    Love Liz and her team!!

    I absolutely loved working with Liz - she is so thorough, easy to talk to, and (of course!) she's great at what she does! Liz and her team come to you and do hair and makeup on-site, which is so convenient - and for many venues, like mine, it's even necessary! Liz, Hannah, and Kenzie did such a great job with my 8 bridesmaids, my mom, and myself - they moved through everyone efficiently, while still making sure everyone was happy with their look! Despite the rainy weather, everyone looked beautiful throughout the whole day and night! Thank you Liz, Hannah, and Kenzie!!

    Can't Wait for Another Event!

    Liz from Lovely Elegance did my hair and makeup for both my engagement photos and wedding day. I loved working with her because she is professional, thorough, collaborates with you, wonderful to hang out with, and creates incredible results! She is also very flexible and quick to respond to emails. I'm so happy we went with her and Lovely Elegance and can't wait for another event where I'm looking for hair and makeup services. She definitely stands out from all other vendors and you get what you pay for: high quality, beautiful results!

    Felt Like a Beauty Queen

    I am so glad that I went with Lovely Elegance for my wedding makeup! From the beginning working with Liz she was incredibly professional and responsive with anything that I needed. When it came to the day of and my trial I worked with Kenzi and she was so friendly and did such an amazing job on my makeup and for my girls! After my trial I noticed that my makeup was a bit shinier than I may have liked so she made adjustments so that my day of look was perfect and matte looking. I felt my absolute best on my wedding day thanks to Kenzi and Lovely Elegance! Having a makeup artist that comes to you on the day of truly makes everything so much easier and less stressful as you don't need to obsess over the time. Kenzi had all of us beautiful and ready for the day in plenty of time and that gave us some extra time to relax before everything go crazy again. Lovely Elegance is beyond professional and great at keeping to your time restraints. I would highly recommend them if you're looking for a travelling makeup artist!

    Loved working with Lovely Elegance!

    Everything about my experience with Liz Booth and Lovely Elegance was fantastic. She was very responsive, professional and personable. She was very accommodating and flexible when scheduling a hair and make up trial, and the timeline on the day of the wedding went amazingly smooth. I highly suggest working with Liz and her team!

    Love Liz and her team!

    Liz and her team were amazing! They made the whole experience super easy, comfortable, and fun. I am not a huge makeup and hair person and Liz did my look PERFECTLY, where it wasn't too much but was still very pretty and natural looking. My bridesmaids hair and makeup all turned out great, even without trials. The morning of my wedding was so relaxing, and I give some of this credit to Liz for traveling to us and providing a calm environment. Would HIGHLY recommend Liz and her team!

    Everything I hoped for with my hair and makeup!

    Liz is absolutely amazing. She always made me feel like I was her #1 priority! She always made sure that i was happy with the style I had chosen. She made my wedding day so stress free by bringing an additional stylist to accommodate my bridal party. Could not recommend Liz and Lovely Elegance more!

    She travels to YOU for a stress-free experience!

    Liz from Lovely Elegance was amazing to work with, so personable and so professional. The fact that she travels to you is the icing on top of the cake!

    During our trial, she listened to me and worked with me and the hairstyle and makeup we chose turned out beautifully! Even in the weeks that followed when I wanted to tweak something she was responsive and so willing to continue to tweak until I was comfortable.

    On the day of the wedding, she and one of her other hair/makeup artists worked efficiently, quickly, and professionally on me, all of my bridesmaids, my mom, and my new mother-in-law (who only speaks French!). We all felt so beautiful and pampered!

    Absolutely wonderful, choose Liz!!

    Working with Liz and her team was truly a dream! The quality of our hair and make up was incredible and lasted over 12 hrs through the late-night after party. I'm not a big beauty person in my day-to-day life and didn't have a clear vision, but Liz was able to put together an elegant boho look that fit the vibe of my dress, all while making the make up look natural and light. In addition, we had a tight timeline with a morning hike and an early photography start time but Liz was masterfully able to accommodate my large party. I also really appreciated that my wedding party was able to pick and choose what services they wanted (some have very short hair and didn't want to opt for a styling). I seriously want to hire Liz every time I come to Madison for a wedding, even just as a guest! Thanks Lovely Elegance

    Liz did my hair and makeup for my wedding day, and did my mom's, sister's, and niece's hair. She was receptive to our ideas, gave great suggestions, and was calm, prepared, timely, and pleasant - all so key on the wedding day! I would definitely recommend her!

    I worked with Liz and her team on hair and makeup as the bride. She also provided hair and makeup services for our wedding party.

    We loved working with Liz and her team on our wedding. She was very responsive and accommodating to feedback on final looks. Everyone in our group wanted a more natural look and the decisions she made for hair and makeup fit perfectly. My girls and I felt confident, spoiled and ourselves! Having everything done onsite was convenient and relaxing with all the moving parts of the day. We had a blast. I’d love to work with her again.

    Liz is amazing

    Liz and Christine are amazing. First of all, Liz was so flexible and wonderful to work with. There were a couple of times where we miscommunicated or needed to make last minute changes to the hair and makeup schedule and she was more than willing to accommodate me and my bridal party. She also does AMAZING work. I haven't gotten my pictures back yet, but all I know is that I felt beautiful, which is so important on your wedding day.

    Wonderful!!!

    Liz from Lovely Elegance Hair & Makeup was so fabulous to work with! She was extremely professional and efficient and helped us troubleshoot on the day of the wedding so calmly and perfectly when one of our additional stylists couldn’t make it due to a flat tire—she had come up with a solution to the problem before we even knew the problem had occurred! My bridal party all loved their hair and makeup and it stayed in place super well for the entire night (even with all of our dancing).

    Kind Staff, Beautiful Work!

    Liz and her team, including my stylist Katelyn, were excellent to work with. Katelyn was willing to try as many different lipstick colors as needed to find one that matched what I was hoping for, and she is just so sweet and great to work with. I was so happy with my look, and all of my bridesmaids looked great as well. When we had some logistical/health issues come up that caused my bridesmaids to need a later start to getting ready, Liz was able to find an extra set of hands to make that happen. We did end up running a little late day of, but thankfully were planning a first look and photos with some buffer time so we didn't have to worry about starting the ceremony late.

    Liz is Amazing!!

    Liz is so amazing and such a joy to work with! All of our correspondence through email was timely and clear. I appreciated that we were able to do my trial at my home and that she traveled to our venue. She was so much fun to work with and made me few complety at ease about my lack of makeup knowledge. I was also really grateful she didn’t try to convince me to straighten my hair or do anything that was out of my comfort zone. I looked like an elevated version of myself on my wedding day, which was exactly what I wanted. My bridemaids looked so beautiful and they were very happy with everything. Liz was also incredibly efficient and got through everyone in the exact time she had allotted on the timeline she had sent me, which I really appreciated since we were trying to get a lot done before our ceremony. The pricing was fair and competitive with other companies I looked at. Thank you so much, Liz!
