Limited dates remaining for 2026

01 — Booking & Availability

How far in advance should I book?

As early as possible. Spring and fall weekends — especially in Northern California wedding season — book out 12 to 18 months ahead. If your date is within six months, reach out right away and we’ll confirm what’s still available.

What does booking actually involve?

We start with a quick inquiry to confirm your date, location, and service count. Once we’ve confirmed availability and fit, we walk you through package options and next steps. A deposit holds your date.

Is my date still available?

The only way to know is to ask. Availability changes quickly, especially for peak season weekends. Head to the , share your date, and we’ll get back to you within 48 hours.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes. A deposit is required to secure your date. Details are shared during the booking process. Until a deposit is received, your date remains open to other inquiries.

02 — Services & Trials

Do I need a trial appointment?

A trial is strongly recommended for every bride. It gives us time to refine your look, work through any adjustments, and make sure you walk into wedding morning with zero uncertainty. Trials are booked separately from your wedding day.

When should I schedule my trial?

Ideally 4 to 8 weeks before your wedding date. Close enough that your hair is near its wedding-day length and condition, but with enough runway to adjust anything before the big day.

Can you accommodate my whole bridal party?

Yes. We handle parties of any size. Let us know your headcount and service needs when you inquire and we’ll confirm what works. Larger parties may require additional artists to stay on timeline.

What services do you offer?

Bridal hair, bridal makeup, bridal party hair and makeup, and trial appointments. Full details and what’s included with each service are on the Services page.

03 — Wedding Day Logistics

Do you travel to the venue?

Yes. We come to you — your hotel, getting-ready suite, or venue. Travel fees apply for locations outside our base area. Share your venue location when you inquire and we’ll include travel details in your quote.

How long does wedding day hair and makeup take?

Bridal hair and makeup together typically takes 2.5 to 3.5 hours. For the full party, we build a custom timeline based on your service count and first-look time so everyone is ready with time to spare — not rushing.

What should I do to prep for my appointment?

Arrive with clean, dry hair. Avoid heavy product. Have inspiration photos ready if you have them — even rough references help. We’ll send a detailed prep guide once you’re booked.

Will my hair and makeup last all day?

That’s the goal. We use long-wear techniques and humidity-resistant products specifically chosen for full-day hold. Every bride also leaves with a small touch-up kit so you’re covered through the reception.

04 — Pricing & Payment

How much does bridal hair and makeup cost?

Pricing depends on your service count, party size, and location. Full pricing details are on the Services page. We’re happy to walk through a custom quote once you share the specifics.

What payment methods do you accept?

Details are shared during the booking process. We’ll make sure you know exactly what’s due and when before you commit to anything.

What is your cancellation policy?

Deposits are non-refundable as they hold your date and remove it from availability. Full policy details are included in your booking agreement. If your plans change, reach out as early as possible and we’ll do our best to work with you.
