I'm lucky to have had the experience to work with many brands and feel I have amazing knowledge as to what works best for your wedding day. My kit is carefully curated and I only select the best products. I only use luxury, premium make-up products from brands such as Charlotte Tilbury, Hourglass, Nars, Mac and more.
Every wedding is different and we will have more of an idea after your trial, but as a general rule bridal make-up takes just over 1 hour, and bridal party is 45 minutes per person.But do not worry, as I will create a timeline for you!
My Elopement Package is the minimum package at a cost of £495. Friday, Saturday & Sunday weddings from April - September and all Bank Holidays have a minimum charge of £685.
I no longer provide hair styling for weddings, but have know many talented hairdressers that I can recommend to work alongside me on your wedding day.
Yes I can. If additional makeup artists are needed due to additional bridal party members, or because of your ceremony time, there is a charge of £60 per service they complete.
Travel is included for all wedding bookings up to 1 hour from Wallington, SM6. Travel over 1 hour has an additional charge of 50p per mile. Travel time is calculated using Google Maps at a similar time of day.Travel for occasion appointments is charged at £30 every 30 minutes.up to 30 minutes £30up to 60 minutes £60up to 90 minutes £90etc.
A non-refundable 25% booking fee is taken when you make your booking which comes off your final invoice. This fee covers admin costs and holding your date in the diary.
The bridal trial is the perfect opportunity for us to try out your makeup, and to decide together what will work best to enhance your features and make you feel your best on the day, as well as being able to see how the makeup wears as the day goes on. Sometimes, a trial also allows us to work out what you don't want! It will make the day run smoother as we have already discussed your look in detail before creating it on the day. The trial is already included in your package for wedding makeup as I believe it is an important part of the process. Other wedding party members are also very welcome to book in a trial if they are nervous about having their makeup done. These trials cost £95pp and will take place on the same day as the bridal trial.
Your trial will be held in a private makeup room at Charming Beauty Salon, Wallington. Trials are held on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Friday and Saturday trials are very limited (as these dates are reserved for weddings) and have a surcharge of £70. I usually recommend the trial to be around 8-12 weeks before the wedding when all the final details and decisions have been made and are coming together.
Your makeup trial can last anywhere from 1-3 hours depending on your personal requirements. Trials lasting over 3.5 hours will need to be stopped and rebooked for a later date.To ensure the smooth running of your trial, I will send you full details of how to best prepare.
Unfortunately, I am unable to accommodate trials unless your deposit has been paid to confirm your wedding date. This is due to high demand on popular dates. If you would like me to do your makeup before confirming your booking, you can book for an occasion makeup (subject to availbility).
I hope that this would never happen as I work my best with you to ensure we find a look and style to compliment you and make you feel at your very best. We would start by having a second trial, and making sure we are both happy with the looks we are creating. However, if you no longer wanted to go ahead for your wedding day, you are not committed to, but the booking fee and the equivalent cost of the trial would be retained. Booking fees are non-refundable as they covers my administration costs, as well as holding your date in my diary.
