Frequently Asked Questions

I recommend booking 6 to 12 months before your wedding, especially for peak season between May and September. Popular dates book up quickly, so the sooner you get in touch the better chance we have of securing your date. That said, I do sometimes have last-minute availability, so it is always worth reaching out.

The trial typically lasts around 3 hours. We will chat through your ideas, look at inspiration photos, discuss your dress and overall wedding style, and then create a hair and makeup look together. It is a relaxed, fun experience — I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident with your look before the big day.

Every wedding is different, so I provide bespoke quotes based on your requirements — the number of people in your bridal party, your location, and any additional services you may need. Please get in touch for a personalised quote tailored to your day.
