One week prior to your makeup appointment, make sure that you are consistent with your skincare regimen by cleansing and moisturizing, day and night. Drink plenty of water. Use a gentle exfoliator on your skin twice a week. Clean up your brow shape by either tweezing, waxing or threading. Ask me about bridal skincare packages!

I use high-end, professional-grade products to ensure the best quality of luxury service. TEMPTU, Make Up For Ever, RCMA, Anastasia Beverly Hills, M.A.C, Bobbi Brown, and NARS are a few of the preferred cosmetic brands that I have found exceptional and are readily stocked in my professional makeup artist kit.

While the wedding planner is set up and the caterer is in the reception hall, your makeup artist and hair stylist are right by your side as you get ready to walk down the aisle. Asking for a phone consultation is a good way to get a feel of who your stylist is before hiring them. If you can’t enjoy conversations with your stylist over the phone, you definitely don’t want them in the same room as you on your Big Day.

There are dozens of different skin shades and hair textures, and not every makeup artist or hair stylist has proficient in them all! If you have a diverse bridal party, you need an artist and a stylist who can make you and every one of your bridesmaids feel confident and beautiful.

On a similar note, many makeup artists are only accustomed to young brides and bridesmaids. Not every makeup artist is prepared to make over your mother- or grandmother-in-law. If a member of your bridal party or one of the family has mature skin, make sure to ask your potential makeup artist if they’re prepared to accommodate that person.

Yes, the timeline will be given 1-2 weeks prior to the wedding date.

If guests are required to pay for parking to get to your venue, your makeup artist and hair stylist will be required to do the same.

We recommend doing your trial about 1-2 months prior to the wedding, once you have all of your hair accessories, jewelry, and theme and really narrowed down the hair and makeup look you’d like, and also so that your hair is a similar length and color as the big day. We’ve found that when brides do their trial too early, many end up booking a second trial closer to the wedding once they have a better idea of exactly how they want to look on the big day. If you would really like to do a trial prior to booking, we can accommodate that, but would recommend scheduling a second trial closer to the wedding.

Each person’s unique, natural, hair texture has an effect on how long their hairstyle will hold. If you are aware that your hair does not hold a curl well, please let your hair stylist know so that we can use a few of our tricks to get them to hold longer. Updos typically hold much longer than loose curls. We use Anti-Humidity hair products to help reduce frizz and maintain curls. We have many tricks that we use to prolong the wear of your hairstyle, and many of our clients say that their hairstyle looked amazing through the end of their night; it just depends on how hard you rock the dance floor at the reception!
In Savannah Humidity and winds can be a huge factor that's why we highly recommend having a touch up hour or a full day package.
