Booking Questions
7. How far in advance of my wedding should I book a hair and makeup artist?
Typically, brides will book about 3 to 6 months prior to their wedding date. The earliest is one year in advance. Book your favorite hair and makeup artist as soon as you know!
8. How do I officially book you for my wedding?
I require a $250 non-refundable deposit fee along with a signed contract sent to the email address provided via our communication.
9. Do you charge any travel fees?
All travel miles are $1.00 per mile round trip.
10. Which forms of payment do you accept?
I accept cash, Venmo, Zelle and credit card.
11. Do you recommend a hair and makeup trial before my wedding?
Although not required, I would highly recommend a hair and makeup trial so that you can truly test the makeup and your hairstyle’s longevity throughout the day. I believe my brides are less stressed when they know exactly what they will be getting on their wedding day. I've seen it! Remember that your wedding day is a very special day and we want to make sure that you look and feel your best!
12. Where and when do you do makeup and hair trials?
Appointments are scheduled according to availability during the weekdays and weekends.
All trial sessions are done at my home studio.
13. How long does a trial session take?
Please allow 2.5 hours for a hair and makeup trial session. If hair and/or makeup changes need to be made after seeing the final look, additional time may be required.
14. What can I expect in my hair and makeup trial?
During your makeup trial, we will discuss what your vision is for how you would like to look on your wedding day from your hair and your makeup, including any other concerns you may have. Based on our consultation, I will provide you with a direction that will complement you on looking your very best on your special day. This trial session is the best time for us to address your concerns and make any necessary changes. Honesty is be greatly appreciated.
15. What should I bring with me to my trial session?
I recommend you to bring pictures of 1-2 makeup looks and hairstyles that you love and do not love, any hair accessories, your veil, if available, and a fun attitude ready to be made up!
16. How many people in the bridal party can you accommodate?
I can accommodate up to 6 total services. Additional artists will be hired if you have a larger party.
18. How long does each hair and makeup application take?
For the bride, I set aside at least 2.5 hours for hair and makeup application. For bridesmaids and other adults, I schedule at least 45 minutes per hair or makeup service. For example, if you have two bridesmaids and both require hair and makeup service, I will schedule 90 minutes per bridesmaid. Please note that we may go over the allotted time depending on individual hair length and thickness of hair.
