Will we have fun?
Yes.
Are you available on my wedding date?!
Let’s see! Select ‘Contact’ from my main menu then complete your Bridal Application. I’ll check my availability and get back to you pronto!
You're based in the South Bay. Do you travel?
I provide services throughout Los Angeles and Orange County and am occasionally available for bookings in San Diego, Palm Springs and Santa Barbara.
When should I schedule a trial?
I recommend booking your trial 2 to 8 months prior to your wedding date. If you’re unsure about any Makeup Artist, including myself, I would suggest booking your trial as soon as possible. Many artists book quickly and require a retainer and you wouldn’t want to miss out on your dream artist! It’s also a fantastic idea to coordinate your trial with a special occasion like your engagement photos! After all, you’re going to look and feel like a million bucks!
Do you offer hair styling?
No, but shoot me a message and I’ll send over my referrals for amazing Stylists in the area!
How long does makeup take per person? What time will we need to start?
Now that’s a good question! I will spend 60 minutes doing makeup on each person in your Bridal Party and Bridal Makeup Application is scheduled for 90 minutes. I won’t know exactly what time we will need to start until we chat about your wedding day timeline, but you will hear from me about one month before your wedding date to get an idea of your schedule.
I make sure to take everything into considering when making your makeup schedule… like enough time for cute pajama pictures and a champagne toast! So no stress :) You will receive a beautifully designed timeline to plug in the names of your family and party members. We can always make adjustments! I’ll send as many excel sheets as you wish :)
How does payment work?
I use super easy online invoices for your deposit and final balance. Don’t worry, you don’t need any special accounts, you can use any card to complete payment. The final balance will reflect all services for your booking and is due 7 days prior to your event date.
Are there any additional fees I should be aware of?
Please read my contract thoroughly before signing it! What if I asked you to name your first born child Patricia?! (There are worse things). Okay, but seriously, there are no hidden fees or small print on my contract, but you do have to read it. The clauses mentioned in my contract include: Retainer, Early Start Fee, Touch Up Fee, Mileage and Travel, Accommodations and Per Diem.
How do I book you for my wedding?
Click here! I will reply ASAP with my availability and we can move forward from there :)
Are lashes included?
YES! Lashes are my favorite!!! Eyelashes are included in my rates. I always have at least a DOZEN styles of lashes in my kit as well as individual custom lashes to suit all of my brides and their requested styles. Yay!
How far in advance should I book? Are there seasons that are in high demand?
I suggest booking makeup services for your wedding day 6-15 months in advance. The months in my calendar that typically book up first are April through October.
Do you offer airbrush?
Nope. I don’t like it.
What products & brands do you use?
So many. All the brands.
I have spent over a decade experimenting with so many amazing brands. You will find products in my kit that range from luxury high end to some killer drug store products! I don’t discriminate. Here are some of my favorite brands to name a few: Lancome, Makeup Forever, Laura Mercier, RCMA, Becca, Hourglass, MAC, Charlotte Tilbury, Tarte Cosmetics, Too Faced, Maybelline, NARS, Graftobian, Kevyn Aucoin, Cover FX, NYX, Makeupgeek, Colourpop, Ben Nye, Urban Decay, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Stila, and Huda Beauty.
I have a big bridal party. Can you accommodate everyone?
I work with Bridal Parties of 4.
Additional Artists will be required for 5 or more makeup services. I work independently and do not directly hire secondary artists or assemble teams for large parties. If your party exceeds what I can accommodate, I can refer you to a number of trusted artists that can provide services or assemble a team for you after my services are booked.
Do you stay for touch ups?
Yes!
You have the option of a 1-hour Concierge Service ($150) or Full-Day Concierge Touch-Ups ($500). This includes touch-ups until your Grand Entrance, ensuring you look flawless and radiant in every moment. From refreshing your makeup after happy tears to perfecting your look before photos, I’ll be there to keep you camera-ready and feeling your absolute best. Whether it’s a quick touch-up or a full glam refresh, you’ll have the peace of mind knowing your bridal glow is perfected until your Grand Entrance!
What if my wedding date changes, or I cancel?
As a wedding industry professional in high demand, I can’t guarantee that I will be able to accommodate any changes. All deposits and payments are nonrefundable and nontransferable. I am, however, the furthest thing from a cold hearted robot- so if something comes up, just let me know and I will do my best to work with you :)
I'm curious about pricing and the investment.
Bridal Makeup Investment starts at $1450.
Is there tax or tip included in your invoice?
There is no tax added to service costs or invoices. I also don’t add tip to my invoices- I find that weird! Then it’s not really tip! It’s a fee! Lol! I include a suggested tip in your Beauty Schedule and appreciate any and all gratuity in all forms *cough* food *cough*.
Anything I didn't answer?
Call me, beep me, if you wanna reach me! I am a REAL person and you can always e-mail me! I would love to chat with you!
