Question 3

Is there a minimum booking requirement?

Accepted Answer

Typically, yes. During peak season or most Saturdays, we require a 4 service minimum to book. However, if you are a bride eloping or only have a few services, we always try to acommodate your request. For any parties with less than 4 services, we just ask for flexibility in your timeline as we may be accomodating a wedding before or after your services.

Do I need a bridal trial?

How do I reserve my wedding date?

Your date is officially reserved once we receive a signed contract and $450 retainer.

What if someone in my bridal party changes their mind?

We understand wedding plans evolve. We ask that all service adjustments be finalized 12 weeks prior to your wedding so we can properly schedule artists and prepare your wedding timeline. Most of the time, add ons can be accommodated but you cannot remove services from your contract once the deadline has passed.

What if my wedding starts really early?

No problem! We regularly accommodate early morning weddings. If your timeline requires a start time prior to 7am, an early start fee may apply. Any early start fees will be outlined in your proposal depending on the time.

Can I book hair or makeup only?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! There is no additional cost for only booking one type of service.
