FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I book a wedding with you?

Please begin by submitting the inquiry questionnaire below. Once we’ve discussed your wedding details and confirmed availability, a signed bridal makeup contract and deposit are required to reserve your date. Both must be received within one week of your inquiry; otherwise, the date will be released and made available to other clients.

What is the maximum distance you travel?

I offer on-location services within approximately a one-hour travel radius of my home studio.

How many makeup applications can you accommodate?

For locations within 30 minutes of travel, a minimum of 3 full-face makeup applications is required. For locations between 30 minutes and 1 hour, a minimum of 4 full-face makeup applications is required, with a maximum of 4 clients total. For larger parties, a second artist would need to be arranged.

Is a bridal trial mandatory?

A bridal trial is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended. This allows us to discuss and preview your desired look in advance, ensuring everything is perfected and seamless on your wedding day.

How far in advance do you accept bookings?

Bookings open one year at a time, beginning on the first day of each new year, and are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.

Do you offer airbrush makeup?

I specialize exclusively in traditional makeup, as it offers greater versatility in colors, finishes, coverage, and allows for a more customized approach across all skin types.
