Every bridal booking is quoted individually rather than off a fixed price list, because a trial, the number of bridesmaids and whether hair, makeup or both are needed all change the real cost more than any single service on its own. Book a consultation first and we'll give you an honest, itemised figure before anything is confirmed.
We'd suggest your first trial around three months before the date and a final one a month out, which gives enough room to adjust without leaving changes so late that skin or hair has no time to settle.
Why Bridal Is Quoted Rather Than Priced
Every service on this page is quoted on request, and that is deliberate rather than evasive. A bridal booking varies enormously — how many people are being done, whether we come to you or you come to us, how early the morning starts, whether a dupatta or veil needs draping, and how many hours of on-site touch-ups you want.
Publishing a single figure would mean either overcharging the simplest bookings or undercharging the most involved ones. Tell us the date, the location and roughly how many people, and we will send a clear written quote with nothing hidden in it.
When To Book Each Stage
Book the date itself as far ahead as you can — Saturdays through the summer are frequently taken six to nine months in advance, and the specific artist you want goes before the date does. First trial at around three months out, final trial at one month.
The first trial is a working session rather than a dress rehearsal: bring your outfit's neckline or dupatta, the jewellery you intend to wear, and photographs of looks you love as well as one or two you do not. Makeup reads very differently against different fabrics and metals, and seeing them together saves an entire round of guesswork.
The Fortnight Before
Nothing new. No new products, no new actives, no new practitioners. Everything should by now be something your skin has already met and tolerated well, because reactions have a cruel habit of appearing exactly when there is no time left to resolve them.
Book brows for five to seven days before rather than the day before, so shaping settles and any redness disappears entirely. A gentle facial three to four days out and a manicure the day before will do more for the final result than any last-minute treatment. Photograph your trial on your own phone in daylight and again under warm indoor light — your wedding is photographed far more than it is seen in a mirror, and those two quick pictures routinely change a decision.
The Morning Itself
Wash your hair the night before rather than that morning unless your artist has asked otherwise — day-old hair holds a set considerably better than freshly washed hair. Wear something that unbuttons or unzips rather than something that has to come off over your head.
Write the timeline as an actual schedule with clock times rather than a list of tasks: who is in the chair when, when hair finishes and makeup begins, when the photographer arrives, and when you need to be dressed. Share it with everyone in the room. Almost every stressful wedding morning we have witnessed was caused by an unwritten assumption rather than by anything going wrong.
Eat something, even if you are certain you cannot, and keep the room smaller than you think you want it. Every artist has watched a bride go pale in the chair at eleven in the morning, and it is always for the same two reasons.
