Tip:

1.When starting the process of selecting the right make up artist and hair stylist for your wedding, begin by obtaining referrals from other brides and professional vendors. Personality and flexibility are very important, as they will be with you on your wedding day.

2. I suggest contacting at least three stylist to obtain their availabilty and pricing.

3. To receive a good estimate- provide a list of who will be needing hair and make up services( full or touch ups, updo's or blown dry- down) to the vendor you contact keeping in mine- as the bride, you will want  three sessions-a practice, bridal portrait and wedding day services. Be sure and offer this service to mother of the bride and mother of the groom.

$ Budget Savy Bride:
-Visit or contact local make up counters- make up of your choice- to obtain a list of artist who offer their services for wedding day.This allows you to have a complimentary practice, bridal portrait session at the counter, then pay only for on location for the wedding day.
-For hair and make up trial runs- make the appointments prior to wedding showers or parties-great way to be pampered for your wonderful event.

Negin chose to have her hair and make up completed at The Westin Galleria- location of her ceremony and reception.
