About

Beauty by Ann Krause is a Chicago bridal business that works on location: the artists go to the place a client picks, such as Gold Coast hotel suites, Wicker Park rentals or a Lake Geneva resort. Service is limited to Chicago, though clients outside the city can ask about other options.

The business describes itself as a reliable, award-winning beauty team. Its work leans toward natural to soft glam, with looks ranging from boho and romantic to classic, chic and elegant, and the team styles curly hair for weddings.

Booking begins with a contact form, followed by a reply confirming availability and an optional phone call. A signed contract and a non-refundable retainer of 50% of the total cost of services reserve the date, and artists may take other work until both are received. Gratuity is not included in the rates and is added to the final balance. Travel to a location within 5 miles of River North is included in wedding bookings, with fees calculated beyond that.

Bridal packages open with a consultation covering style, wedding colors, gown, inspiration photos, hair and skin type and weather plans. A trial run refines the look with the same artists who work the wedding day. Products and techniques are chosen for skin type, hair texture, time spent outdoors and the weather, so the look holds. Brides also receive a hair and skin care prep guide and access to the Bridal Insider List, a directory of go-to providers for skincare, injectables and spray tans.

At Delle Amiche Salon, the business offers women's haircuts, blowouts, styling lessons, bang trims and keratin treatments. Hair color is provided through partner colorists in a departmentalized salon, and the business matches each client with a colorist.

Matches each bride with artists suited to her style, personality and wedding-day vision, and builds timelines with buffer time at the end.
