“I found Windy City Glam through my wedding planner and am so glad I got to work with them! As an Asian bride with double eyelids, I had always been a little confused about how to achieve a glam look that still felt right for me. Working with Jean (JR) at Windy City Glam was such a reassuring and educational experience.
Jean made me feel completely comfortable sharing feedback and even changing my look significantly from my trial to my wedding day. Doing the trial and asking questions about the products and techniques she was using really helped me learn the vocabulary I needed to communicate what I wanted and make adjustments before the wedding.
I was honestly nervous after my trial because I didn’t love how I looked—but that was not Jean’s fault at all! She followed my instructions exactly, and I simply realized that I didn’t like my own original idea. I was able to email Carla and Rienna with the changes I wanted, and they translated my feedback into detailed notes for Jean. By the time my wedding day arrived, everything came together perfectly. My makeup was exactly what I wanted, looked amazing, and lasted all night without needing any touch-ups!
I also had a very large group getting ready: nine bridesmaids, two grandmas, and my mom were getting their hair done, while both grandmas, the mother of the groom, and my mom were also getting their makeup done. Despite the massive number of people needing services, Windy City Glam’s team was incredibly organized and efficient. Our day started at 9 a.m., and somehow everyone was ready, looking amazing, and we still finished earlier than expected—with time to spare around 1 p.m.
I could not have been happier with my experience with Windy City Glam. They were talented, organized, professional, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire process. I especially appreciated how supported I felt when I changed my mind about my bridal look and how seamlessly the entire team worked together to make sure I felt perfect on my wedding day. I would absolutely recommend them to any bride, especially someone who wants a team that will truly listen, collaborate, and help bring their vision to life.”
