WEDDING BOOKINGS


When is the best time to book my wedding date with you?
We highly recommend making your booking once your wedding date is set. Our brides typically book us 6 months to over a year in advance to ensure availability.

When should I book in my pre wedding beauty treatments?
We recommend having your eyebrows and other waxing 2 or 3 days before the wedding and monthly up to the wedding. For eyelash extensions and light spray tanning at least 1-2 days before the wedding. Regular facials every 4-6 weeks and manicure and pedicure treatments the day before the wedding.

I don’t tend to wear makeup, so feel nervous about having makeup applied, should I be?
Enhancing our client’s natural beauty is our specialty. We consider our clients concerns, needs and comforts when designing the makeup look. If you never wear makeup, a natural light application will be perfect for you.

Is it true that I have to wear heavy makeup for photos?
No, this is definitely not true. Beautiful makeup is applied in thin layers, not heavy on the skin. The lighting is what mostly determines the makeup finish. We use our professional skills to create a makeup that looks great in natural morning and evening light and also beautiful in photos.

I will be changing into another dress, Can I change my look for the evening?
Yes, we provide a re-style and touch-up service which is quoted individually depending on your change of look and time. Please enquire here for more details.

Do I need to touch-up throughout my wedding?
There are a couple of little touch ups that will be needed even with a professional makeup application. If you get teary eyed a little concealer under the eyes may be needed, a lip colour refresh from all the kissing and a touch of powder after all the dancing.

Can I bring people to my trial?

Do I need to bring anything to my trial?
We recommend you bring your hair accessories, hair extensions (if you require) and other accessories that you wish with you to see with your finished hair and makeup look.

Shall I wash my hair before the trial and have any makeup on?
We advise you to wash and dry your hair the day before and come with a clean face and no makeup. Try to time your hair colour with your trial so your colour looks fresh. If you are considering having semi-permanent eyelash extensions, natural tanning and eyebrow shaping we would recommend also having this 2 or so days before your trial.

Do my bridal party need a trial?
We always recommend trials however it is not essential for your bridal party.
