Frequently Asked Questions
WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED? DO YOU TRAVEL?
I am based in Saskatoon Saskatchewan in Canada but I do travel to any destination for weddings. Most non-bridal appointments and bridal trials are held at my home studio located in Saskatoon.
HOW FAR OUT DO YOU BOOK BRIDES?
On average, I book brides 12-18 months out. The longer you wait, the quicker dates go. I highly recommend booking all your preferred vendors in advance to lock in your date. Makeup and hair should definitely be top priority!
WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BOOK MY WEDDING?
A 50% retainer and signed contract is required to book a wedding date. An inquiry does not secure a date.
DO YOU HOLD OR LET ME KNOW IF SOMEONE ELSE WANTS MY DATE?
Brides are booked on a first come first served basis. The first to sign a contract and pay a retainer is booked.
DO YOU OFFER ADDITIONAL SERVICES?
Yes! In addition to your wedding day I am also available for engagement photos, boudoir sessions, and rehearsal dinner services. These sessions are highly requested and are a great addition to your bridal services.
HOW MANY SERVICES CAN YOU ACCOMMODATE?
Right now I am bride exclusive (more info in my service & investment guide)
WHAT DO I DO IF I NEED MORE SERVICES THAN YOU CAN ACCOMMODATE?
At this time, I work independently. A separate artist/team may be needed for additional services. I can provide a list of makeup and hair artists once my services are booked.
IS A BRIDAL TRAIL REQUIRED?
Bridal Trials are highly recommended but not required. Bridal trials allow for us to get all the details down and make sure your makeup look is as exactly as you were wanting. This reduces stress on the wedding day because we’ll know exactly what you are wanting for your big day.
CAN I BOOK A TRIAL BEFORE SECURING MY DATE?
Yes, but your wedding date will not be secured so for example if you book for a trial before booking for a wedding date by the time we have the trial, it is not guaranteed that I will still have your wedding date available.
IS A BRIDAL TRIAL INCLUDED IN THE BRIDAL RATE?
No, a bridal trial is a separate cost.
HOW LONG WILL MAKEUP LAST? IF I HAVE A LONG DAY, WILL IT HOLD UP?
Makeup will last the entire day until removed with makeup remover but it is your responsibility to make sure not to rub your eyes or smudge your face after your makeup is complete. A lip touch up will be included for all clients.
DO YOU KNOW HOW TO WORK WITH DRY & OILY SKIN?
Yes, I prepare each skin type properly for a long-wearing makeup application.
ARE LASHES INCLUDED?
Yes, I will be including lashes in your makeup application.
HOW LONG DO SERVICES TAKE?
Bridal Makeup: 1 - 1.5 hours
Bridal Trial: 1.5 - 2 hours
Non Bridal Makeup: 1 hour
On Location Set Up/Pack Up: 15 minutes
DO YOU DO AIRBRUSH MAKEUP?
I do not offer airbrush makeup.
DO YOU OFFER INSTANT BOOKING?
While bridal makeup requires more planning and a personalized touch, instant booking is available for Non-Bridal and Full Glam sessions. I’d love to get you glammed—feel free to book anytime!
