BOOKING POLICIES

  1. How far in advance do you book?
    I book up to 18 months in advance, so be sure to reach out as soon as you know you're interested to secure your wedding date!

  2. How do I book my date?
    To officially book your date, I require a signed contract and a 50% retainer. The remaining balance is due 30 days prior to your wedding.

  3. Is there a booking minimum?
    While I do not have a service minimum, I do have a booking minimum. For weekend weddings, my booking minimum is $1,000 (excluding the trial and additional fees such as early start, travel, or second artist fees). I offer custom packages ranging from bride-only options to packages for large bridal parties.

  4. Do you schedule more than one wedding per day?
    No, I only book one wedding per day to ensure my full attention is dedicated to you!

  5. Is there a minimum or maximum bridal party size that you can accommodate?
    I’m happy to work with bridal parties of ALL sizes. Whether it’s just the bride or a large group, I can tailor my services to meet your needs.

  6. What if I want to reserve my date but I don’t know the exact number of services needed?
    No problem! We can reserve your date with the minimum number of services you anticipate needing, and we can adjust as you finalize details.

  7. What forms of payment do you accept?
    I accept payment via Venmo, Zelle, check, and cash.

TRIALS

  1. Do you require a trial?
    While a trial is not required, I highly recommend it. A trial helps us create a makeup look you love and ensures a stress-free, smooth wedding day.

  2. Where do your trials take place?
    Trials typically take place in Fairfield, CT. However, I can come to you depending on your location—travel fees may apply.

  3. When do you schedule trials?
    Trials are scheduled Monday through Friday between 10 AM and 4:45 PM.

  4. How many looks can we try during the trial?
    Trials usually last around 2 hours, giving us time to explore multiple looks. I also take iPhone pictures during the session so we can see how the makeup translates in photos and narrow down your dream look.

MAKEUP KIT

  1. How do you sanitize your kit?
    I use professional-grade hygiene practices, including bringing a clean set of brushes for every client, using disposable applicators, and sanitizing with 91% isopropyl alcohol. Sponges are never reused.

  2. What if I have allergies or sensitivities to makeup products?
    During my initial questionnaire, I ask about any known allergies or sensitivities. I avoid using products with fragrances or comedogenic ingredients and will ensure all products used are safe for your skin.

  3. Do you offer traditional foundation and airbrush foundation?
    I specialize in traditional foundation, which provides a natural finish that allows skin to look like skin. I carry options for all skin tones and types, offering a range of coverage from sheer to full and finishes from glowy to matte. I no longer carry airbrush foundation, as I find traditional methods create the most beautiful and lasting results.

  4. What types of lashes do you use?
    I use a variety of customizable individual lashes, which are more comfortable than strips and have better longevity. Whether you’re looking for a natural "your lash but better" look or something ultra-glam, I can tailor the lashes to your eye shape and style preference.

SERVICES

  1. How long will my makeup take on the wedding day?
    I create a detailed schedule ahead of your wedding day. I allocate 90 minutes for the bride’s makeup and 45 minutes for each attendant. I also leave 15 minutes at the end for complimentary touch-ups.

  2. Will my makeup last all day and night?
    Yes! I use long-wear, professional-grade products and apply makeup in light layers to ensure it lasts throughout your wedding day and well into the night.

  3. Do you offer on-site touch-ups?
    Absolutely! I can stay on-site for touch-ups for as long as you need, whether it’s for photos, after the ceremony, or before the reception.

  4. Can you bring additional artists to accommodate larger bridal parties?
    Yes! For larger bridal parties, I can bring additional artists to ensure we stay on schedule and everyone receives the same level of care and attention.
