Trials
-
Bridal makeup trials are recommended and are scheduled separately from the wedding day. The cost of the trial is $180.00 and payable before or on the day of the trial. I recommend getting in touch at least 3-4 months out from when you’d like to book this to save missing out on a preferred date. Most Fridays & Saturdays will be unavailable from Oct- April due to peak wedding season.
-
Trials do not guarantee the wedding day booking; a deposit must still be paid to secure the wedding date.
