How it works...
+ Send through your inquiry. This can be done by filling out the form on our contact page. Please make sure to give as many details as possible.
+ If we are available for your wedding date we will send you through an inquiry form to fill out and send back.
+ Once we have received and reviewed your inquiry form we will send you through a full quote.
+ If you are happy with the quote and would like to secure your date, we will send a copy of our terms and conditions, as well as an invoice for a non-refundable 25% deposit. The remaining balance is due no later then 2 days before you wedding date.
Your trial...
+ We highly recommend a makeup and hair trial. 1-2 months before your wedding date is an ideal time to arrange to have your trial with us. If you would like to book in sooner or later this can be arranged also.
+ In regards to setting up a date for your makeup and hair trial, we are generally available most Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings.
+ A standard trial will take 1-1.5 hours per service. If you are wanting to try more than one style we suggest to book in for a second trial. The best time to do a trial is about 1-2 months before your wedding so you have a clear idea of your look and wedding style. At your trial we can discuss all the finer details such as whether you and your bridesmaids would like eyelashes, lip kits, flower crowns and the time frame etc.
+ Please feel free to bring along images so that we can discuss the ideas and styles that you have in mind.
+ On the day of your trial if it is possible please have cleansed, exfoliated and moisturised skin. Feel free to use your favourite moisturiser (no higher then SPF 15). If you don't have a moisturiser we have some beauties in our kit for you to try. If you are getting a hair trial as well please wash and dry your hair the day before, ensuring it is in a completely natural state, dry, product and knot free.
+ For your trial we will set up in a well lit and sunny area in your home and will need a cleared table to work from, chair, high stool, mirror and a power point for hairstyling tools etc.
+ If we are required to pay for parking we will need to add this to your invoice, if you have a free park we can use please let us know in advance.
Questions + Answers...
Q. Will there be both a makeup artist and hair stylist on my wedding day?
A. YES! 9 times out of 10 we will arrange for 2 stylists to pamper you and your bridal party an your big day. If your party is very large we sometimes call on more stylists! The advantages of having a duo styling team means...you will be in great hands as the stylist will be an expert in their chosen field. Timing is also very important on your wedding day, we want you to sit back and relax knowing that you will be ready with plenty of time to spare! Sometimes there may be an exception to the rule (bride only or a very small bridal party) we will then select a stylist for you who is very experienced in both areas.
Q. How long will makeup and hair take on my wedding day?
We usually like to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to starting. We like to allow up to one hour per service, this can sometimes take less or slightly more depending on each client. We always aim to have you and you bridal party ready at least one hour before your ceremony.
