Asked
Questions

 How do I book you for my wedding? 

Once you have taken a look through my website, Instagram or even given me a call with any queries you may have it’s so simple to then book me. Simply send me an email please include your name, date and location, service you require, bridal party numbers and ceremony time if you have it. I can then send you all the costing and further information you may need to secure me for your wedding day. 

How do I secure my date with you? 

I do require a non refundable £50 reservation fee which comes off the total amount to secure your wedding date with me, this can be paid via BACS or PayPal using your wedding date as reference. Your wedding date is not secure until this is received and I have confirmed receipt. I do operate on a first come first serve basis so please don’t wait to secure your date with me.

What are your costs? 

Please send an email with all the required information so I can get a detailed quote back to you within 24hours, in peak wedding months it may be longer.  For Destination costings i can give an approximate quote as travel costs can vary.

When do I book my trial? 

I always advise trials to be booked at least 4 - 5 months before your wedding date. If you would like to meet me sooner we can arrange a video call first to run through some ideas. Trials take place Monday - Friday with weekend dates being busy with wedding’s. I have a luxury home studio based in Royston, Hertfordshire where your trial will take place with bridal accessories available to view.

If you are travelling from a far for your wedding and not sure if you will have time to visit me before the big day, we can have a detailed consultation to make sure it runs smoothly for you. I have carried out many weddings without a trial, please check my gallery and testimonials for further reassurance.

Can you accommodate my whole bridal party? 

I can offer my services to yourself and 3 others (hair and makeup) with a late afternoon ceremony, however if you have more in your bridal party I work with some other talented artists who will be happy to assist me on the morning to ensure everyone is finished on time. This will all be booked by myself and detailed in the schedule I create for the wedding morning. 

My wedding is in the UK but over an hour drive?

I am happy to travel up to 1hour and 30 minutes on the morning of your wedding, if your venue or hotel is further than this i would advise to book accommodation for myself and stylists so we can be there with no risks of delays in traffic or bad weather conditions. This will be booked by yourself and within a 20 minute drive from your location.

What products do you use? 

I use a variety of brands and products created for each specific need for all different skin and hair types. I will go through this in details during your consultation at your trial and give my advice on how to better your skin ready for the big day. A few brands I use in my kit include - NARS, BECCA, By Terry, Charlotte Tilbury, Rodial.
