IS HIRING A MAKEUP ARTIST NECESSARY?
AS SEEN ON MARTHA STEWART WEDDINGS
Get ready for some insight!
As you are getting ready to book your vendors, please pay attention to us! I hope you can be a little selfish! I want you to think about how amazing you want to feel, how you want to look throughout the years!
Beauty services get looked past 90% of the time. Brides usually turn to the Knot, Wedding Wire, and other "wedding websites" and ladies... let me tell you something, these sites have information that should be retired, like now! One of the main myths is to book a trial a few months before your wedding, and then book your artist, well that's just not how it works anymore.
If you follow makeup artists on social media, you will notice many of them tell you to "get in touch if you want to reserve your wedding date" and I agree! New makeup artists get booked by those with smaller budgets (I started as a newbie 10 years ago and trust me I was busy busy busy!). Now as someone who offers a more personal service, I normally get booked within a year to 5 months in advance. As you can see we all get booked! We all cover different areas of the industry and cater to different needs. Yes, I can assure each of us loves what we do, but just remember you are investing on your perfect day. The difference with an experienced makeup artist is you will have more guidance, we have the experience, the knowledge and you won't stress about the little things. We know how the industry works, we know the vendors, we communicate to make sure we get all the details ready for this amazing day to help you achieve the final goal! The beauty industry comes in many shapes and colors, pick the right one for you.
Here is what you can expect booking me for your wedding-
- I'm blessed to work with amazing photographers with different styles and with my education I know how to study your photographer's work and translate it to a look that will look great in person and when you get pictures back.
- I only book one wedding a day, simple as that! No one before or after! I'm available to customize my timeline around your photographer and planner.
- Do you love waking up early? I don't! especially when we don't have to! I believe 4 hrs max is enough time to get you and your bridal party ready. We want you to enjoy your morning have a good breakfast and a good sleep! There's no reason to wake up so early when your wedding is until 4 pm.
- When booking with me, you will have a cohesive look for you and your bridal party while respecting everyone's likes and dislike.
- Some of my brides have been bridesmaids on past weddings and they get it! Everyone is special in my chair!
I hope this blog can be helpful!
