WHAT IS YOUR BOOKING PROCESS?
After completing an inquiry form, I will contact you within 48 hours to let you know if your wedding date is available. If it is, I will gather a few details about your wedding and send you a contract to review and sign. Once you have signed and paid the retainer, your date will be secured!
*Please note that I cannot hold dates as I receive multiple inquiries for the same date.
CAN I HIRE YOU TO STAY FOR TOUCH UPS?
Absolutely! This service is perfect for hot, humid or rainy weather, and those planning on a lot of outdoor photography. It’s also ideal for someone who may cry a lot, or someone who just wants to feel confident that they will look their best at any given point.
WHEN SHOULD I BOOK A TRIAL?
I recommend booking the trial for a date 1-4 months before your wedding or event. My availability is limited during peak wedding season and trials are only offered on Sundays and Mondays.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT AT MY TRIAL?
For the trial, I ask the bride to arrive with a clean face, free of moisturizers or other products. We will discuss your vision for your wedding makeup and look at your inspiration pictures. The trial helps me understand your vision and preferences, as well as learn about your skin type. Trials are also a great way for you to learn what you like and don’t like. It is not unusual to think you may want one particular look but then decide against it once you see it on yourself. This is why trials are more of a learning experience, and ensure that we can absolutely nail your dream look on your wedding day.
WHERE DO THE TRIALS TAKE PLACE?
Trials take place at 207 Newbury Street in Boston at GLDN Salon.
DO I NEED TO KNOW MY HEADCOUNT TO BOOK?
I realize at this point in your planning, you may not know how many people will want to have beauty services and that’s okay! You do not need a confirmed headcount to book with me. You can always add more services to your contract. However, you cannot subtract from the original amount agreed upon. There is a $1200 service minimum during peak wedding season weekends.
IS THERE A TRAVEL FEE?
The travel fee is $100/hour round trip from Sudbury, MA. Weddings that are 2+ hours away will require that the artist arrive the night before and accommodations will be provided. Accommodations may also be required for start times that are before 8 am if not local to the Boston area.
DO YOU USE FALSE EYELASHES?
False lashes are included in the price of your makeup. Declining lashes does not change the price.
WHAT TYPE OF MAKEUP DO YOU USE?
I use a variety of cosmetic brands that are based on performance and longevity. Shop my favorite products here.
