ALL THINGS BRIDAL
-
My books are generally open up to 12 months in advance, however, if you know you’re date and would like to secure your wedding makeup, I suggest contacting me as soon as possible.
-
Absolutely, factors such as your bridal party size and ceremony time will determine the schedule for the day. In the instance that assistance is required due to an early ceremony time or large bridal party numbers, I will provide options accordingly during the consultation. The aim is to ensure your morning is as seamless and enjoyable as possible.
-
Everywhere! I am available throughout Australia and will also travel overseas to look after you on your special Day. Your wedding makeup quote will contain any travel and accommodation charges applicable to your booking.
-
To secure your booking a 30% non-refundable and non-transferrable deposit is required within 48 hours of committing to your booking. The final balance is payable 2 weeks before your wedding day. Please note that bookings are not secured until the deposit is received.
-
All bridal enquiries can be submitted via the bridal contact page on my website. This form includes all the questions I need to provide you with a quick and accurate quote for your day. After receiving your quote, written confirmation is needed to secure your date, a confirmation email is then sent you which contains your booking details and a payment link for your deposit. Deposits are required within 48 hours of committing to your booking. Your date is not secured until the deposit is received. The balance is payable via bank transfer, credit/debit card or cash 2 weeks before your wedding day.
-
Yes absolutely and I cannot stress how important these are. I recommend a trial 4-12 weeks out from your Wedding day, by this time you have generally finalised all the finer details in terms of your look and the feel for the day. Therefore you will be more set on the makeup style you like. Trials are done from my salon space in Cronulla (Monday-Friday) they are 1.5 hours in length and we trial 2 looks. Please note the cost of trial is not including in your wedding day makeup quote, they are charged separately.
-
Of course, I am very happy to work this way and understand it is nice to try various artists for your day. As mentioned, I am unable to hold dates until a deposit is received so there is just a slight risk that your wedding day may be booked once your trial date is complete.
-
In the very unfortunate situation that this happens I speak with each Bride personally. The 30% non-refundable deposit will be forfeited, other charges may apply depending on the time frame of the cancellation. Please see my Terms & Conditions section for further information.
-
I use a selection of premium, high quality makeup and skincare brands to execute a makeup look that is long lasting, flawless and feels comfortable on your skin. My core brands include, Dior, Armani, Charlotte Tilbury, Hourglass, YSL, By Terry, Laura Mercier, Hava Beauty, By Mario, Pat McGrath and Chanel.
-
I strive to make the morning of your Wedding Day stress free, enjoyable and memorable. In order to do this I will send you a run sheet before the day which will highlight my arrival time, makeup time slots for each person, touch ups and pack down. These times are dependent on your photographer arrival time and departure time. I will ensure touch-ups are finishing as the photographer arrives. This means they are able to capture some ‘Getting ready’ photo’s and I do not run into their creative time of the day.
-
During your consultaion I will ask questions about your skin type, allergies and concerns. This information will help me decide which skincare products, primers, foundations and general makeup products I use on your skin for the day. I do everything in my power to prep, apply and set the makeup to last up to 16 hours. I have always received positive feedback in this area and the makeup has always lasted, however, it is important to note that Makeup Artists work with products, skin and weather that may affect the result. We do everything we can to ensure it lasts!
ALL THINGS EVENTS
-
Yes! I love event makeup appointments. When I am not travelling for work I am based within the stunning setting of Charlie Joy - 363 Port Hacking Rd, Caringbah NSW 2229
-
You may opt to book an appointment with or without lashes. I only use individual lashes in my application. I carry a wide range of styles and lengths, I will customise your lash look to suit your eye shape and makeup style.
-
An event makeup will take one hour, this time includes your consultation, application, photos and payment. If parking in Cronulla I recommend a 2 hour parking spot.
-
Yes absolutely! If you have a special event to attend, I am happy to travel to your location. There is a minimum call out group of 4 people. Please note some travel charges may apply. These bookings cannot be done online and require you to contact me directly.
-
I encourage you to book via my online booking system. The process is quick and simple, however if you are unable to access or can’t find your preferred time/date please contact me and I will look into your appointment request further.
-
At the time of booking you will asked to pay a 30% deposit to secure and finalise your appointment. This balance is then deducted from the balance on the day. Payment on the day of your booking can be made via cash, eftpos or bank transfer. Please select your date carefully as deposits are non-refundable and transferable.
