do you require a retainer?

Yes, when booking I'll require a retainer down to secure your wedding date. This retainer is non-refundable. Once a contract is sent out you will have a 24 hour grace period to sign and pay your retainer, otherwise your booking will be voided.

Can i book a trial with you before i have my wedding date?

Yes, absolutely! However, I can't promise that your date will be available when you decide to book due to my bookings being a first come first serve basis.

How do you take payment?

Cash is best but I do have Square, Venmo and Cash App. If paying other then cash I do have a 4% service charge.

do i need to have a trial?

trial q's

Although trials aren't required, they are 100% recommended. Trials give us a chance to meet before the big day, discuss your style, and to try out your vision. 

how long does a trial take?

how should i prepare for my trial?

when should i book my trial?

Plan for an hour to two hours.

I recommend 2-4 months out from your wedding date.

Preparing your skin beforehand is so important. A few things I suggest are dermaplaning, facials, and a skincare routine. I also recommend to get a spray tan if your planning to do so on your wedding day, try to line up hair services for the same day, and wear white!

how much time do we need for bridal makeup?

can i add people or services before/on my wedding day?

do you have an assistant?

can we get ready in my bridal suite?

It's crucial for us to review your wedding timeline in advance because many venues don't permit access to the bridal suite until 11AM. This can pose challenges if you have an early ceremony or a large wedding party. Our services typically require 45-90 minutes, and we must also account for set-up and touch-up times.

wedding day q's

Make sure to allow at least an hour for Bridal Makeup, and for all others please allow 45 minutes.

Once the contract has been signed, that number is not subject to change. I plan the day based on that number of people and if I need an assistant for that day. However, if we have time for additional clients and we already have an assistant that we can communicate that over.

The need for an assistant is based on the number of services and time needed. I usually will have an assistant with me at additional cost if we have 6 or more services.
