There is something so personal and somewhat terrifying getting your hair styled for a once and a lifetime event, but working with Madeline made it feel comforting, exciting, and se...
amless. She understands your natural beauty and wants to highlight it. She brings her incredible artistic eye leaving you feeling more gorgeous than you could have ever imagined. Her style is so refined , timeless, yet modern and sexy. I considered myself such a lucky bride the day I found out that I could have Madeline apart of my wedding day. She not only made me feel special but all of my girls too. Honestly I cannot imagine my getting ready morning without her there. Not just because she made me feel so comfortable and beautiful but she really was endlessly joyous to be around from my first contact with her, my trial, and then the wedding day! She truly is a one of a kind artist and person! Choosing Madeline Eleanor as my wedding hair artist was truly one of my best and favorite decisions.
Madeline Eleanor is equal parts wonderful person and excellent at what she does! She made me feel confident, beautiful, and at ease throughout my trial and wedding weekend. She lis...
tened, asked thoughtful questions, and went above and beyond to be supportive of me and my wedding party. There are so many intimate moments during a wedding which can present complicated dynamics to manage and Madeline Eleanor and her team navigated it all with grace. It's rare to find someone who is so extremely talented with both hair and makeup, plus brings incredible energy on top of things! I still can't believe she made me look exactly how I wanted to and feel even better than I could have imagined, I will be forever grateful. No notes!
I found Madeline on instagram and really loved her makeup soft-glam looks!! She and her wonderful team, made my wedding day absolutely perfect! I decided fairly last minute that I ...
wanted to change my hairdo and she was incredibly flexible and even went out of her way to deliver! My entire bridal team loved their hair and makeup and everything was absolutely perfect! Highly recommend you book her early!
DO NOT WAIT TO BOOK MADELINE FOR ALL OF YOUR HAIR AND MAKEUP NEEDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you want to look AND feel your absolute BEST on your wedding day, you MUST(!!!!!!!!!) have ...
Madeline there. Not only is her work perfectly STUNNING, but she is an absolute DELIGHT to be around!!! Despite an early start, Madeline brought the most positive energy and FUN to our morning and created an atmosphere that was PERFECT for getting ready. My sister, mom, mother in law and I had the MOST FUN dancing to The Life of a Showgirl with her, taking photos together, and gabbing about everything under the sun.
I didn't really know what type of look I wanted/would be best for me, and Madeline was able to provide the perfect amount of guidance. I don't wear a lot of makeup day to day, and Madeline created the most perfect, effortless, and natural look for me that made me feel like an elevated version of myself without it feeling heavy nor unnatural. I received SO many compliments on my makeup!!!
I am forever grateful that we had Madeline by our side wedding day, and I can't urge future brides strongly enough to make sure they have the chance to experience the pure JOY that is Madeline Eleanor!!!!
I truly cannot say enough good things about Madeline! I have never felt more beautiful in my life — she somehow managed to make me look and feel like myself, just the most elevated...
, glowing version possible. That was exactly what I hoped for on my wedding day, and she absolutely delivered above and beyond.
She also did hair and makeup for my two sisters, who both have totally different styles and preferences, and they could not stop raving about how much they loved their looks. Everyone felt confident, comfortable, and gorgeous — which is such a testament to her talent and intuition.
Beyond her incredible skills, she was just such a joy to have around on the wedding morning. She was calm, kind, and so easy to be around — the kind of energy every bride hopes for on such a big day. She even traveled all the way to the Outer Banks, NC for our wedding and stayed through the ceremony for touch-ups, which made me feel so at ease (especially after a quick rainstorm!).
If you’re looking for someone who is both unbelievably talented and a genuinely wonderful human being, look no further — Madeline is your girl. I can’t recommend her enough!
If you want to have the best day of your life on your wedding day, you need to hire Madeline. First of all, she is an incredible makeup artist. Madeline did my hair & makeup for my...
welcome party and wedding day and both looks were absolutely perfect and did not move at all despite less than ideal weather. I feel like I have repeatedly had the same conversation with artists—please don’t make me orange/bronzed, I like a natural look etc—and Madeline is the first person who actually heard me. All of her suggestions were spot on and I left feeling like I could trust her with my life. She also did my mom and sister’s makeup (both of whom are notorious for never liking professional makeup) and they were thrilled. My mom hadn’t had her makeup done since a traumatic experience as a bridesmaid in the 1970s and left Madeline’s chair asking her to write down every product she used.
But this isn’t even the most important reason to hire Madeline. She is so much more than just a HMUA—she was an integral part of my day. Madeline stayed for touch up’s, which meant she would place my hair and redo my lip while we were taking photos and offer posing advice. She fully re-curled my hair before the ceremony so it would be perfect. She kept me calm and happy despite reports of a possible tornado. She just brought joy and good vibes and was so fun to be around. She also did way more than just her job—she helped wherever she was needed (including sprinting to help fix a leaky ceiling during a torrential downpour). She is just the absolute best and I recommend her wholeheartedly!
Amazing, beautiful, WONDERFUL makeup artist. I'm so glad I had Madeleine there on my special day by my side to make me look and feel my most beautiful. I could not have asked for a...
more attentive and sweet human to spend the day getting ready with. Thank you! I will always cherish the pics and the way you made me feel so beautiful!
I worked with Madeline for the entirety of my wedding weekend, and I can honestly say the experience wouldn’t have been the same without her.
Madeline blurs the line between craft...
smanship and art. She has an incredible eye for balance, form, and detail — each element of my three wedding looks felt intentional yet effortless.
I felt so lucky to have such a seamless, worry-free experience. Madeline is reliable, communicative, and deeply knowledgeable, and every aspect of her business is handled with efficiency and professionalism.
What truly sets Madeline apart is her genuine investment in her clients. She was kind, patient, and incredibly supportive — not only with me, but with my entire wedding party. Her calm, caring presence had such a meaningful impact on the mood and flow of the day.
Take this as your sign to work with Madeline Eleanor for your wedding — she’s absolutely exceptional.
Madeline is a treasure. In a world with endless tik-tok tutorials and amateurs masquerading as professionals, Madeline is the real deal. I feel silly even writing this because her ...
portfolio speaks for itself but beyond her incredible work, she is a joy to have on site and makes every client and vendor feel valued & heard. She creates beauty as a physical manifestation through the outward appearance of hair and makeup yet the real gift is the beauty and confidence that her work brings to your spirit. She’s talented in any style and her diversity knows no bounds between editorial, commercial, weddings, and high fashion she can really do it all. Jack of all trades, master of all. Hire her.

d to be exactly what I was looking for for my wedding day - elevated but not too over the top glam. The devil is in the details and that’s where she shines. Not only was she quick and efficient with her time, but she made me feel completely at ease and if I didn’t like something we quickly shifted without another word. She stuck by my side for most of the day and really just acted like a close friend - she was the ultimate hype girl, the girlfriend you want there to take the best, most flattering photos of you. She really did it all!!!!
Hiring Madeline Eleanor for my wedding hair and makeup was truly one of the best decisions I made throughout the entire planning process. She is exceptionally talented and brought ...
my vision to life—not only on my wedding day, but also for my engagement photos and rehearsal dinner.
Madeline took feedback beautifully, and together we refined every detail until it felt absolutely perfect. When I looked in the mirror on my wedding day, I felt completely at peace—she had captured exactly what I envisioned.
Her patience and kindness stood out just as much as her skill. She handled my mom’s indecision with such grace and genuine care, and she went above and beyond to help me discover and define my own inspiration along the way. She offered creative ideas I never would have thought of, and they elevated my entire bridal look.
Madeline stayed on-site for touch-ups during photos, ensuring everything looked flawless from start to finish. Beyond her undeniable artistry, she is simply a joy to be around—sweet, professional, and someone I now consider a friend.
If you’re looking for a truly exceptional hair and makeup artist, know that Madeline is worth every single penny. She made me feel the most beautiful I’ve ever felt, and I can’t imagine my wedding day without her.
I had a wonderful time with Maddie as my hair & makeup artist for my courthouse elopement! She was able to pull the essence of the look/vibe I was going for from my reference image...
s, while personalizing to fit my features/hair type/etc. Even after a sweaty, humid day of running all around NYC in mid-July, everything still held up as if we'd just left her studio! Definitely recommend :)
Madeline is such a talented hair & makeup artist! Her style is so rosy and natural, and she uses high quality products. My bridesmaids and I all looked and felt like ourselves, but...
our best features were brought out by her incredible work. Madeline was also very attentive to any skin or hair concerns for me and my wedding party, and gave very helpful preparation advice. Thank you Madeline for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day!
