Elan did hair and makeup for myself and my maid of honor for my intimate wedding in July 2020! We were initially planning a larger scale wedding but ended up postponing that larger wedding a year due to the pandemic. We then decided to keep our original July 2020 wedding date and also have an intimate wedding. While we had already booked a different makeup vendor for our larger scale wedding, we decided to use Elan for our smaller scale wedding.

I am so glad we chose Elan! Anita and Mayra are both exceptionally talented at hair and makeup. We both felt so beautiful. And while it was 100 degrees outside, our hair and makeup were impeccable the entire day. These ladies are also so friendly, and we had so much fun chatting with them while getting ready.

Please do not hesitate to book them. They will make the entire experience (from booking to the day of) so seamless, and you will look STUNNING. I truly regret not using them for my larger scale wedding for makeup.

Anita and her team were so wonderful. My bridesmaids and I looked gorgeous. She listened to what I wanted and did a fantastic job.

Not being local to Dallas we went with our first idea. After they bailed 3 mos from the wedding Elan was recommended. So thankful. Easy to work with, great service, fair pricing, wonderful suggestions.

Anita was recommended to me by a former bride of hers. I was planning my wedding remotely (live in Seattle) and she was able to accommodate doing the initial consultation over FaceTime. We used my hair and makeup trial for my bridal portraits. She was able to accommodate extra services within one month of my wedding date with ease. On my wedding date, Anita and her three assistants were prompt, cheerful, and professional. They easily finished hair and makeup for all 10 girls as scheduled, including any adjustments and touch ups. All the girls looked beautiful and our hair/makeup lasted through the day (which is saying something in Texas heat in June)!

I am a huge tomboy who wanted no part of hair & make up but Anita was fantastic! My hair looked exactly the way I wanted it to and my make up was nice but didn’t make me feel like I was wearing a lot!

Anita and her team are awesome! Anita was a pleasure to work with from the initial call I made to her. She is so sweet and gave me exactly what I wanted…even better than I had pictured it! She made me feel so comfortable at the trial run and didn’t make me feel bad about any changes I wanted to make. You can tell she loves what she does. Anita and one member from her team came on site for the wedding day where she did hair and makeup for my girls and me. Everyone looked STUNNING and was so happy with how they looked. Every bride wants to look perfect on their wedding day, and Anita made that a reality! I booked Elan Makeup Studio on a friend’s recommendation, and I hope you do the same based on my review!

Anita did such a fabulous job with my wedding! I am a very picky bride that loves makeup. Anita took her time learning how I like my makeup done and changing anything I wanted changed. My lashes were out of this world gorgeous!!

She also did an unbelievable job on my hair! I have very long thick hair, and Anita whipped all this hair into a perfect little updo full of texture and curls. My husband is still raving about how much he liked my hair, and my wedding pictures are proof of Anita's amazing work!

Anita and her team are incredible! They did hair and makeup for my daughter’s wedding last month, including the bride, MOB, MOG and 8 bridesmaids, and we could not have been more pleased! They totally exceeded our expectations and all of us felt confident and beautiful for the BIG day!

The bride-to-be and I did several hair trials prior to the wedding. Each time, Anita was patient and accommodating, despite us not knowing exactly what we wanted. She is very customer-focused and takes her time to fully understand your needs and consistently deliver a style you are completely happy with. She makes the sessions fun and relaxing and the hairstyles were gorgeous!

Mayra, her lead makeup artist, is also very talented. We absolutely loved the airbrush makeup she recommended. It looked fantastic on all of us and stayed on well even after hours of dancing.

The Elan team arrived to the venue fully prepared with everything we needed. There were plenty of stylists to get all of us beautified, on time and stress-free.

I highly recommend Elan for your wedding or any special event you have coming up. My daughter and I will definitely be back!

If you are looking for the best makeup artist and hairstylist for your wedding, look no further because you have found her. Anita Brown is the owner of Elan and she is the best in town. She offers many different packages as well as a la carte services all at reasonable rates to meet any budget. She was so accommodating and met every need of my daughter and her 12 brides maids, including myself and her new mother-in-law. Anita made this part of the planning and the actual wedding day stress free. It was so nice not having to worry whether everyone's makeup and hair would hold up in the July heat. She recommended airbrushing and applied enough product to keep everyone's hair in place. She brought in extra team members to make sure all the bridesmaids and the bride would all be ready on time. Anita and her team are the most talented in the area so book early because she really will make everyone in the wedding look their best.

Anita and her team were so much fun to work with! She did such an incredible job on my makeup for both my bridals and for the wedding day as well. She gave me exactly the look that I was going for. She is the sweetest and she will do everything she can to make sure that you look your best on the big day! Very professional and always easy to get a hold of. I highly recommend Anita! She is the absolute best! Thanks again Anita and the rest of the Elan team :)
