Do you travel?
Yes! That’s one of the key features of our wedding day services. We will meet you at your hotel room, home, venue, church, etc. You may also book us for destination weddings or events outside of Michigan or Ohio. Please note that we do not travel to salons - there is generally not enough space for us to work comfortably and most salons collect a commission for bringing in freelance artists/stylists.
Do I really need a makeup artist?
YES! Most women's daily makeup routine is NOT camera friendly and will not hold 12+ hours. You need a professional who specializes in bridal makeup to build your look to withstand a long day of tears, sweat, and heat. This is one day you cannot afford to leave your face to chance, especially with heavy photography/videography coverage involved.
What products do you use?
We use a wide variety of professional products, and we have favorites from many lines. Some of the brands you may see in our kits are: MAC, Glossier, Dior, Tarte, RCMA, Temptu, Senna, Lorac, Kevyn Aucoin, Viseart, and many other prestige and pro brands.
Do you offer trials?
Of course! In fact, we require a trial application as it is an integral part of finding the right look for your special occasion. The trial is your opportunity to get comfortable with us, and it’s our opportunity to discover what you like and dislike so we can create the perfect, individual look for you. Your artist will record a detailed list of all products used and take photos for reference. That way you can rest easy knowing exactly what to expect with no surprises! If you are a destination bride and may not have the opportunity to fly in to Toledo months before the big day, we can schedule your hair/makeup trial one or two days prior to the wedding.
Do you offer airbrush makeup? What makes it so special?
Yes, we use a Temptu airbrush gun with a silicone-based airbrush foundation. This foundation is long lasting, oil-free and non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores). It provides a natural, dewy finish for a healthy, youthful glow on any skin type. Foundation is applied with an airbrush gun in soft sweeps over the face that feel like air. Airbrushing provides the ultimate lightweight, flawless finish. It is sweat proof and water resistant with up to 18 hour coverage! This is what makes it the ideal makeup for special events. Very little touch-ups are needed (if any).
How long does a makeup application take to complete?
For the wedding day, we like to plan an hour with the Bride, plus 30-45 minutes per additional person depending on the services selected. Keep in mind we will also need about 15 minutes to set up, and 15 minutes to tear down once all services are completed. Trials can take up to 90 minutes per service.
Do you do hair?
No. We no longer offer hair services but we can refer you to a stylist if you’d like. Just ask!
Can you accommodate all ethnicities and age ranges?
Absolutely! We have lots of experience with a global range of skin tones and types, and will have everyone feeling like the best version of themselves.
When should I book my wedding date?
Our most popular months are May - October and all dates are first come, first serve. We tend to book most of our weddings 6-9 months in advance, but will take bookings with less notice if we happen to be available. Dates are not held without a signed contract and payment firmly in place.
