WEDDING FAQ’s & ADVICE

  • Having a trial is purely personal preference. But I do thoroughly recommend them, purely for the fact that if you are indecisive or are unsure of the look you want to achieve, a trial is the perfect opportunity to work through this with both the Hairstylist and the Makeup Artist. Sending us images or starting a Pinterest Board is a great tool to show us what you like. We won’t do a trial until closer to the date of your event. It is more relevant.

  • Again, this is personal preference, but we find a trial is most relevant closer to the time of your event. For example if we met you in Winter and you were having a Summer occasion, your hair may be longer/ lighter/ shorter. Also skin tones, you may be tanned/paler. We are happy to fit in when suits you but we find the 2/3 weeks prior is sufficient.

  • Just come as you are – a light moisturised face is fine. Please don’t wear any makeup. If possible, wear or bring with you lighter coloured clothes, preferably a similar tone to your wedding gown. Avoid wearing black.

    Feel free to bring any pictures or photos of looks that appeal to you.
