Question 4

How in Advance Should I Book My Wedding Day Service?

Accepted Answer

Many professional artists and teams are booking into the next year’s bridal season. We recommend seeking out your hair and makeup artist/team once you’ve selected a date and venue, especially for those with larger bridal parties. Additionally, you may be considering booking other bridal related events (i.e. engagement/invitation photos, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, bachelorette party) that you may also need hair and makeup for. So it’s best to plan ahead than to plan last minute, if beauty vendor is a higher priority.

This is a great gift idea or way to get really cute photos throughout the morning-of. There are definitely do’s and don’ts in the kinds of outfits that will work best for changing after services. When ordering your bridal party outfits somethings to consider are if the top can be taken off with out disturbing the hair and makeup, or stepped out of. A great option could be spaghetti strap camisole/gown, or Robe that can be tide. Absolutely NO T-shirts, crew necks etc. We also recommend that your gowns for the ceremony be steamed the night before or first thing in the morning before hair and makeup begin to avoid frizz and curls dropping.
