No one wants to be one of those brides that looks back on her wedding day and says I wish I would have....
HIRE A PROFESSIONAL HAIR AND MAKE-UP ARTIST!!!
Professional hair and makeup is one of the most affordable vendor services you will book for your wedding. Most people won’t spend much time looking at place cards and favors but will be looking at you, the bride, in person and in your photos and video. Don’t shortchange yourself on your wedding day!
It is SO important that your hair and make-up last throughout the day and evening. A hairstylist who specializes in updos is invaluable. Even if you are having a downdo, hair needs to hold its style. All hairdos need to have good hold while being comfortable and have a beautiful flow.
Makeup can absorb or reflect light; a knowledgeable makeup artist will know what to use on your face and décolletage for a flawless, cohesive look in person and under lights and cameras.
Consider paying for hair and makeup (or a portion thereof) as a bridesmaid’s gift. Your photos and video will look better if all the girls have professional beauty services, rather than those parties where some girls have professional hair and makeup done and other girls do their own; drugstore makeup doesn’t last as long or show up as well on high definition cameras as airbrush or high definition makeup will.
An experienced team will do the work of planning a hair and makeup schedule and have all people ready on time. The order of hair and makeup appointments should be organized to allow the bride to relax and have the people she needs to help her with certain things be available when she needs them. Brides appreciate having a beauty schedule provided for them to approve one less thing to coordinate.
How do I book hair and make-up services with Signature Brides?
The first step is to contact us with your wedding date, location where you are getting ready and approximate number of people for hair and for makeup. Once we have determined availability, we can provide you with a more detailed quote and schedule your hair and makeup trial.
The best way to prepare for a trial run is to look through pictures of certain hairstyles and make-up “looks” that you like. Also what is the style of your dress and will you be wearing any accessories or a veil in your hair? This will be a great help to the stylist and you will arrive prepared for a successful trial.
The next step is to book us for your wedding by signing a contract and providing a deposit. This can be done following your trial or at a later date but many brides prefer to book us before their trials or at their trials to ensure we are still available for their dates.
I have a stylist at my salon and a favorite makeup artist at my local department store. Is it best to go to them on my wedding day?
It’s important to remember that your artists should specialize in bridal makeup and hairstyling. Your regular stylist may be skilled in cutting and color but styling is a specialty area of its own as is bridal makeup compared to makeup for a night on the town.
Having a professional bridal team offers the convenience of having beauty services done at your location with no worries about driving, parking and waiting in lines. Most salons and makeup counters do not offer contracts to book artists for weddings; working without a contract/deposit opens you up to last minute cancellations. You will be saved the time, and hassle of trying to coordinate the hair and makeup appointments for yourself and bridal party members, since this can be done for you by an experienced team.
How do I know if I’ve found the right team for me?
Selecting the right vendors for all parts of your wedding is a big task. Some questions to help you decide are:
-Does the vendor ask me questions and listen to learn more about me and my wishes?
-Does the vendor return my calls/emails within a reasonable amount of time?
-How much experience do they have providing this type of service?
-Are they attentive in working with me or do they make me feel rushed?
-Do they seem to genuinely care about the work they do and their clients?
-Do they exhibit a positive nature?
-Do they have references or reviews from previous clients?
