One of the Best Wedding Planning Decisions We Made
Upon doing my research for wedding hair and makeup styles that I wanted for our wedding, I came across Corrie Elle Artistry and immediately knew this was the team I wanted for our wedding. I furthered my research by looking at price points, and also reaching out to Corrie herself to see what packages would best work for our wedding. Corrie was prompt and pleasant through every email she sent. Unfortunately, a few months into the coordinating, we had to postpone our wedding to 2021. Corrie was receptive and so accommodating - the process was so seamless. Fast forward to 2021, Corrie reached out directly to inquire if we were still aiming to get married in 2021, or if we were postponing again to 2022 (inquiring knowing that her availability for 2022 was booking up fast). We asked for her services to be postponed again until 2022 - once again, another seamless process. In 2022, we touched base, and over the course of our planning, I had to add and subtract different services due to changes in my bridal party. I also asked for a makeup trial (which I absolutely loved) for myself and for my mom, who later had to cancel due to exhibiting symptoms and wanting to play it safe. Because I was coming from work, I was also running a little late for the trial. I have to say, despite all the mini headaches I thought I was giving, Corrie and her senior artist Kati were so understanding, kind, and wonderful about the consistently changing circumstances. Fast forward again to our wedding day, and we could not be happier that Corrie's Senior Artists, Kati and Alison, helped us prepare for the day. On the note or organization and professionalism, this team was exceptional. Prior to the wedding, Corrie provided a questionnaire to help schedule the day. The survey was explicit and detailed, accounting for every important detail. She later used this survey to provide a schedule for us to follow on the actual day. Her senior artists kept the schedule perfectly, and again, the whole morning felt seamless. Kati and Alison followed up the day of the wedding, with each individual person of the bridal party to ensure they completely understood the look each person was going for. The aftermath: everyone absolutely loved the precision, quality and detail of their hair and makeup - me most especially! Kati and Alison captured the vision so perfectly. I can't stress enough how this was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding. I received compliments as soon as I stepped off the hair and make up chair, up until I was dancing the night away on the dance floor. Everything held up perfectly through pictures, ceremony (and the heat from being outdoors), the reception, and a night of dancing. I want to send Corrie, Kati, and Alison our most sincere gratitude for the effort, time, and quality of service they provided. We could not be happier!

Truly amazing!
Honestly, I couldn't even wait for the professional photos to post this review, so I apologize for the image quality - I cannot say enough good thing about my (and my whole bridal party's) experience with Corrie and her team! Senior artists Kati and Sam were a dream to work with. They were so accommodating and made myself, the 5 girls in my bridal party, as well as my mom and my (now husband!) mom feel so comfortable, especially since the majority of us had never gotten our hair professionally done. They really helped each person come up with the look that suited them best, and Kati absolutely knocked my hair out of the park with the vision I had, everything surpassed any expectations I had.
On top of all of that, the booking and feedback process was so easy, Corrie and her team are so responsive and were quick to help me out at the last minute when I realized I needed to shorten my timeline, she made sure that I would be covered, and we're so glad we were able to have Sam with us as well.
I can't thank you guys enough for everything!

Highly recommend!
We had a blast with Corrie's team and they were all so easy to chat with and definitely made the day extra special! All of the girls were so happy with their results and looked so beautiful! As the bride, my friends all noticed how long my make up stayed put all day, which I find rare!

Flawless and professional
Corrie was an angel from the start! Communicating with her was easy and professional. I was very impressed with the value and when everything is a big hectic on your wedding day, she brought a sense of calm and ease. It was worth the price to have Corrie come to my home and do both hair and makeup for myself, my MOH and stepmom. I loved my hair and makeup and I had many compliments! Thank you, Corrie!

Great experience with very talented artists
I was introduced to Corrie Elle Artistry by my wedding planner, and I was so happy to have chosen this for my wedding in Toronto. Corrie's Senior Artists Kati & Mel did such a wonderful job with me and my two sisters' hair and make up. They were professional, extremely talented and just overall lovely to spend the morning with. They made us all feel so beautiful and confident. The booking process was very straightforward, communication was clear and timely. I would highly recommend.

Couldn't be happier!
First off, emailing with Corrie was EXCELENT!! I don't think I've engaged with someone as responsive and on the ball as she was - thank you Corrie! Figuring out the agenda/logistics of getting hair and makeup done for my mom and I were easy peasy thanks to Corrie's responsiveness.
While we spent more than I originally accounted for, it was SO worth it. Kati did our hair and makeup and arrived/left on time which was super helpful for us in ensuring we stayed on track with our agenda. and she did SUCH an amazing job. Makeup was flawless and while we didn't even have any pics of the hair styles we wanted, she somehow manifested exactly what we wanted just based off our descriptions. Thank you Corrie and Kati for everything!!!

Wonderful Bridal hair & Makeup
Corrie Elle is a wonderful person and connecting with her for my bridal hair and makeup was an amazing experience. She was so pleasant, caring and very professional. She arranged everything for me very quickly and was very responsive with her communication. She connected me with Bianca for hair and makeup and she was so lovely and talented. Bianca listened to what I was asking for and totally delivered! I felt so happy with my hair and makeup and she made the experience so much fun. I highly recommend Corrie Elle and her team for Bridal Hair and Makeup! They are the best!

Don’t recommend working with her
I don’t recommend working with Corrie due to her inflexibility and unfriendliness.
We hired Corrie for my bridal party hair and make up before pandemic. I even paid extra to specifically work with her. Pandemic happened, and we ended up postponing the wedding to the later (unknown) time. Things got better, we tried to reschedule the appointment with her, she told us if we still wanted to work with her we had to pay extra or just work with her crew members, who were good but not as experienced. We ended up changing our package to work with her crew. Canada kept changing rules with gatherings and border due to pandemic. We are American, and most of our guests were coming from the US! We decided to cancel the wedding due to constant rule changes. I asked Corrie to issue us credit for future use or give part of our deposit back. She did not accept! She just kept our deposit and gave us no option but forfeiting our deposit.
Our 5 other vendors were so understanding, they either returned our deposit or issued us credits to use in the future!!
Overall not a great experience with her and I found her neither friendly nor flexible.
Corrie Elle Artistry's reply:
Shabnam, I hope you are well. Respectfully, I’m disappointed to read your post; despite not working together for your wedding day, there was overall an exchange of 50+ emails for your booking, 3 separate dates secured for you over a 2.5 year period, and then finally a cancellation. Upon booking in the beginning of the Pandemic in March 2020, it was confirmed to you that all retainers were non-refundable, as well as the following 2 signed agreements for the rebooked dates. We however went above and beyond to support our couples through the pandemic and you were no exception to that. Additionally you were also offered a discounted rate for your re-booking date option with my team. While in an effort to continue to support you and your choices, we absorbed losses with regard to your re-booking requests and then further losses as a result of your cancellation, complete by waiving your final balance payment obligation. While we absolutely love what we do, this is also our livelihood; after all that took place over the 2+ years, we were simply unable to accommodate your request for a full refund of your booking retainer. I value all feedback and thank you for sharing; I remain proud of how my team and I supported you through your choices from 2020-2022.
Your previous gratitude with regard to our efforts throughout those 2 years, results in some confusion to your feedback now.
Nevertheless, my sentiment remains; I hope you are well and wish you and your family the very best.
