Alex Sent on 04/28/2025Amazing experience & outcome!
Tricia and Korena were a dream to work with. From my bridal preview through the wedding, they were responsive, supportive, and so fun to be with on the day-of getting ready. My bridesmaids and mom loved their outcomes as well, and all are fairly "particular" about their looks. They were wonderful to work with and I would recommend them to anyone in the Chicagoland area! -

If you are trying to find a bridal makeup artist in Chicagoland, look no further! Tricia did makeup for my wedding at Room 1520 in Chicago, IL in June 2024 for myself, my stepmom, and mother-in-law. Everyone looked perfect! I am only posting photos of me as I don’t have permission from the other ladies she made look wedding gorgeous.
I have many allergies and she was very conscientious of ensuring I was safe with the products she was using. The trial was an excellent day to test all products, wear time of the makeup, and any tweaks for the actual day. Tricia keeps her kit extremely clean, tidy, and organized as any fantastic makeup artist should!

My entire wedding party had such a fantastic experience with Tricia. She made every one of us feel beautiful with natural makeup looks. The looks lasted all day and night and were focused on elevating everyone’s natural beauty, which is what we wanted! She was very professional, communicative, and overall did such an incredible job. She listened to what my bridesmaids and mom / MIL wanted for their looks and executed beautifully.
Not only is she amazing at her job, she is also so fun to be around. She spent the entire morning bringing so much joy to everyone as we were getting ready - everyone of us loved having her in the room hyping us up for the big day. Book her immediately!! -

Tricia is the definition of a PRO. She listened to me and helped articulate what I actually wanted on my wedding day. I know very little about makeup, but knew I didn’t want a caked on layered look. I wanted to look like a better version of myself. She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. The makeup lasted all day (through tears and sweaty dancing).
Not only is she a skilled makeup artist, she’s a fun and warm person. Hanging out with her was so calming, and the morning of my wedding I was at ease because I got to spend time joking around with such a grounded and down to earth person.
She’s... -

Choosing Tricia Clarke Bridal as my hair & makeup provider was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding. From the first time we spoke during the consultation call, I felt an instant connection with Tricia. She spent so much time getting to know me and my plans for our wedding and I knew that I could trust her to bring my bridal vision to life.
I hired Tricia for makeup services and she selected Korena as my hair stylist based on the look I was hoping to achieve. I had a very specific vision in mind for my hair and Korena worked with me to create a style that built upon what I was... -

Tricia was responsive, flexible and patient with all our scheduling changes and she and her team do AMAZING work. I did a trial with Tricia and hairstylist Korena in my home and enjoyed getting to meet them both. A few months later, I had a change of heart about my hairstyle, so on the wedding day Korena patiently listening as I tried to articulate what I wanted and she executed it perfectly. Gigi and Tricia did makeup that was perfect for each of my bridesmaids (who all have very different tastes/style) and my mom and mother-in-law. I couldn't have been happier! And now I have a go-to person to make-up advice. -

Iulia Sent on 01/17/2022Incredible Makeup Artist!!
Tricia was a joy to work with on my wedding day! I first met Tricia when I was a bridesmaid in a friend’s wedding. Although I was not a regular makeup user, Tricia made me feel comfortable from the start. I felt so beautiful and confident that day that I just knew I wanted to have Tricia as my makeup artist at my own future wedding. I was so excited when, four years later, Tricia was available for my wedding (and also willing to travel to the Madison-area from Chicago!)! Tricia is just such a joy to be around. She made all of my bridesmaids feel so comfortable, and she listened to all their makeup and skincare needs and... -

Sara Sent on 10/13/2021Tricia and her team were so talented. Both the make up and hair looked great, all my bridesmaids were also so happy.
Tricia is amazing!!! She is so talented, she did my hair and make up for the wedding and she is also just a great person to have with you on your wedding day. She is 1000% prepared for any situation. I highly recommend her to all brides. Her team was also amazing, all my bridesmaids were so happy with how their hair and make up turned out. The make up was natural and everyone was an elevated version of themselves which was important to me. Thank you so much Tricia and team! -

Angela Sent on 09/05/202010/10 Favorite to Work with
Out of all of the wedding vendors I worked with (venue, DJ, food, etc.), Tricia was by far my number one favorite vendor. She was so easy to work with, extremely responsive, a true professional and SO talented! I don't wear makeup often and so I was worried I wouldn't look like myself on my wedding day, caked in makeup. The makeup trial made me feel completely at ease, and I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day. Also, Tricia finished all of my wedding party makeup ahead of schedule and everyone looked gorgeous. My makeup lasted all day, and I didn't even notice the fake lashes she added to my eye line (usually they are pretty heavy). She is worth the $$. Stop looking for makeup artists already and go with Tricia. -

Anne Sent on 08/27/2020Tricia Clarke Makeup - Amazing!
I am so grateful that Tricia was there on my wedding day! She has a bubbly, warm personality and immediately makes everyone feel comfortable. She is also extremely professional, is always on time, and responds to emails quickly. I absolutely loved my wedding makeup. I looked like myself, but GOOD; not “natural,” not super made-up, just like my best, most beautiful self. My friends and family also loved their makeup. Tricia listens carefully to everyone’s preferences and creates customized looks that are so beautiful and flattering. I want her to do my makeup every day! Megan also did an awesome job on hair! She created a style for me based on a couple of picture, and did a great... -

Katharine Sent on 01/23/2020Tricia is an amazing beauty artist who listens to her clients. She’s professional, kind, innovative, classy, and hard working!
Tricia was so wonderful to work with! She was professional, kind, and patient with the craziness of my life leading up to our wedding day! Tricia made sure my ideas were heard, and checked to make sure I was comfortable with my look and options. On our wedding day (August 10, 2019), she showed up right on time with two additional makeup/hair stylists to help get my bridal party ready! (Not to mention she was patient with my old dad not understanding online payments...thank you!) Tricia was so kind and gentle with my mom and helped to make her feel beautiful on our wedding day. My mom has been fighting breast cancer, and Tricia made my mom look like... -

Lexi Sent on 07/28/2019The best in the business!
Tricia came highly recommended to me and I couldn't be more glad she did. She is truly one of the sweetest people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. You can tell she's genuinely interested in providing the best service to her clients and making them feel beautiful on their special day. We did a trial a few weeks out and she really listened to what I wanted and the feedback I gave her so that I could have my perfect look on the day of the wedding. She was also very easy and flexible with schedules and demands. Day of the wedding she was patient with the Moms having their hair/makeup done with very specific wants and needs,... -

Laura Sent on 07/05/2019Simply the BEST in the Midwest, highly recommend, book her now and don't miss out!
Tricia is not only the most talented makeup artist I have ever had the joy of working with, she is also one of the most genuine, kind, thoughtful, fun, motivated, hardworking, spunky women I have ever met! Makeup was one of my top priorities and one of the first vendors we booked once we chose our wedding date, and I am so grateful that my wedding planner recommended Tricia right off the bat. She books out so far in advance because she is that amazing so do not hesitate and book her ASAP!! After booking her I actually started following her Instagram page before ever meeting her in person and found her to be so bubbly and relatable, and... -

Perfect hair and makeup!
I cannot recommend Tricia Clarke Bridal enough! I was looking for a more natural look and they nailed it. I was debating bridal hair but once I did a hair preview I knew it was a fit. Lauren (makeup) and Kristina (hair) were fabulous. Tricia was also very responsive and great to work with. Thank you!!!! -

Book this team for you wedding!
Wedding: 04/23/2022
Do not look anywhere else for hair and makeup! You found your vendor! I used Tricia and her team for my wedding, and I do not have enough compliments for them!
Tricia and Kristina did my hair and makeup trial, and the experience was so fun and easy. I had a few ideas for both but couldn’t decided what was best. They both were able to merge my ideas, and it looked AMAZING!! I had errands to run the rest of the day and was even outside for a few hours in warmer weather and both the hair and makeup stayed put the whole day with no missed details!
For the wedding day, Tricia... -

Professional, friendly, beautifully executes vision.
Tricia was friendly and quickly responded to my inquiry. She helped find the perfect artist for my special day. April was so easy to communicate with, listened to my vision and was Very receptive to feedback and with a few little tweaks we found the perfect look. She was on time, flexible with some last minute adjustments, keep ahead of schedule and did a beautiful job with all the ladies! -

The Most Beautiful Version of Myself
Tricia was so fantastic on our wedding day! She smoothly transitioned working with each of my bridesmaids and family and myself. Each one of us felt beautiful but also like ourselves afterward! I was so glad I got to be pampered but still looked recognizable, just more glamorous. Korena, from her team, did an excellent job translating inspiration on the spot for each of my bridesmaid's hair. I honestly can't imagine how getting ready would have worked without them! -

Tricia is Simply the Best
Tricia and her team were simply amazing throughout the entire experience. Tricia was super communicative, asked all the right questions to understand my vision for my wedding day, organized, and professional. Tricia was already booked for another wedding, but her stylist Bridget stepped in and was beyond fantastic! She arrived early, asked questions to understand what each person wanted in their make-up look, was super fun and personable, and the makeup was just outstanding! It lasted the entire day! Bridget was also super flexible and patient when our hair schedule fell a little bit behind and therefore delayed out makeup schedule slightly. I'm so glad I booked Tricia Clarke Makeup for my wedding and highly recommend them to everyone!! -

Best around
We downsized to a smaller wedding and Tricia took all the necessary precautions due to COVID-19 and was flexible in her meeting location! She took her time doing the trial and took pictures I could refer to later! She even wrote down the products she used and gave plenty of recommendations. Prior to the wedding day, she created a document I could send to my family members with different ways they could prep their skin, tips/tricks, and the schedule. We switched our schedule around the night before and she was more than accomodating. My makeup was natural, but still had that "bridal glam" I was looking for. Our wedding was outside on a boat in July and my makeup... -
