Questions & Answers

Booking

  • More brides than ever are having no or small bridal parties, or are leaning into hiring their own exclusive beauty vendors. To better serve my brides who are interested in a fully tailored, individual experience, I’ve crafted packages that allow me to service bride only and small party bookings.

    All pricing details can be found HERE.

  • After reviewing my Bridal Services page and determining which package suits you best, you can inquire directly through my website on myInquiry Page. The info I need is listed on the form, but I’ll need to know the venue and getting ready location (if separate), the number of services, and your basic information. Once we’ve confirmed availability, you can fill out consultation form or schedule a consultation call, sign the contract, and pay the $500 non transferable/nonrefundable retainer fee.

  • Travel to venues up to 2/hrs from my location in Orange County, NY are included in every package. For locations further than 2/hrs away, a travel fee of $75 per hour applies, per artist booked. Venues 2/hrs or more away require overnight accommodations. Valet or parking fees are billed to the client.

  • The initial $500 retainer is due upon signing the contract. The remaining balance is paid via credit card, debit card, or ACH transfer 5 days before the event. All payments are made through my secure client booking system and auto-payments can be set up as well!

    The $200 preview fee is billed separately at the time of booking the preview.

  • Travel up to 2/hrs is included in each package. I work all over New York, Hudson Valley, Catskills, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Massachusetts!

  • Any wedding over 2/hrs away is considered a destination event. To inquire for a destination quote, please make sure to include the location, hotel info (is it all inclusive?), ceremony/reception venues, number of wedding day services, and any pre or post wedding events you may want to include.

    Destination event pricing might include: transportation (additional travel fees or plane tickets, ubers, etc), overnight accommodations, luggage fees, per diem, and other travel-related fees.

  • My 2026 calendar is nearly filled, and 2027 inquiries are steadily flowing in. I recommend booking at least 8-12 months in advance, but if your date is sooner than that, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

  • I can service the bride + 4 before I require a 2nd artist. Additional artists have a 3 service minimum and can accommodate up to 6 services before another artist is required. I don’t have a service minimum or a service maximum.

    2nd Artist Fees are $200 per artist + travel.

Preview

  • I do require all of my brides to have a preview. It’s a relaxed, no-pressure session where we can design and perfect the look for your wedding day. It’s also the perfect opportunity to experiment with different styles, make adjustments, or experiment with lashes or anything you’re on the fence about! During the preview, I document everything I use, take plenty of photos, and ensure we can recreate the exact look on the big day. I also ask brides to track how the makeup wears throughout the day/evening to test its longevity and make any necessary changes to skin prep. Previews are booked from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. so you can get a full day’s wear out of the makeup!

    For out-of-town and destination events, where the bride isn’t positive if she can make a preview, we can schedule a video call consultation and utilize the rehearsal dinner/welcome party for a trial run (and adjust the makeup before heading out, so it’s not the exact same look!)

  • I completely understand how prior makeup experiences can make clients nervous to secure their date.

    Brides are welcome to book previews before they secure their date, however, it’s important that they know their date is not held without a contract and retainer.

  • Bridal previews held in studio in Orange County run 90 minutes and cost $200. However, I understand most of my brides are NYC based, getting married upstate, and some brides prefer the experience of having their artist come to them. For on-location previews, the pricing guide is below.

    • For NYC based clients who want me to go to NYC: previews are $700 at client's apartment/home (preview + NYC travel) 

    • For NYC based clients who can travel to Westchester or CT: previews are $500 (preview + travel + studio rental) 

    • For all other locations: $200 + $75 per hour of travel 

    • For in-studio previews at my Orange County location: $200 (available Sundays & Mondays only)

  • I typically recommend 2-4 months before the wedding, so your skin is in a similar condition to that at the wedding, but there is enough time for routine adjustments to be made. However, I have brides book their previews anywhere from 1 month to 6 months before the date.

    I highly recommend making plans for after you’ve scheduled your preview so you can enjoy the makeup while also testing out it’s longevity!

  • Make sure you arrive with a clean, moisturized face and no makeup on. Best practices include wearing a white or ivory (or whatever color is similar to your wedding-wear) blouse or dress with a similar neckline. This helps create a more accurate picture for your makeup! Wearing a black tshirt, for example, can be misleading because makeup can look even more subtle against black clothing compared to white. Brides receive a full guide on preparing for their preview!

  • Absolutely! Joint preview appointments can absolutely be booked. Previews for guests are also priced at $200/90 minutes and follow the same travel information as above.

  • Of course! In studio previews have a 1 gust limit. If you’ve booked me for an on-location preview, I would still highly suggest limiting the guest count to 1-2 guests, as too many opinions and voices can make it hard when trying to consult and breakdown the look.
