Stylists will not be work out doors. All ready rooms must be properly ventilated and air conditioned (summer), heated (winter).
It is the home owner's responsibility to cover floors or carpet that are near or directly under the artist work station.

Service Satisfaction Consent Form

First name

Last name

Client acknowledges that we strive for lasting hair &/or makeup. Heat, humidity, wind rain & tears can impact the longevity of hair &/or makeup. Client understands that textured, pocked or flaking skin cannot be perfected/ covered with MU. We are not responsible for allergic reactions.

If receiving makeup, client agrees to prepare skin with a daily routine of cleansing, toning, exfoliation and moisturizing before the session takes place. Skin condition at the trial may affect outcome of makeup application. Company is not responsible for discrepancies in makeup application if skin is not prepped beforehand.

Hair & makeup artistry is highly subjective and personal in nature. Inspiration photos — particularly heavily edited, filtered, or AI-generated images — may not always translate identically on every individual due to differences in facial features, skin texture, skin tone, hair type, density, length, color, natural movement, lighting, and personal perception of beauty.

If individual is dissatisfied with hair and/or makeup, it is her responsibility to inform artist(s) while they are present in ready room and still unpacked so artist can fix. Refunds won't be given after the fact and second trials will be charged full price plus travel.

The company and your team are not responsible for delays caused by circumstances beyond our control. If an artist is required to wait more than 20 minutes past the scheduled start and/or end time, a $25 per half hour, per artist fee will apply and be invoiced after the event.

Client understands wet hair will not be serviced unless approved. If artist does blow dry hair, an additional fee will be charged. Client also understands that clip-in extensions must be approved/paid for beforehand.

Refer to Your Wedding Morning Timeline

Your team will arrive 15-30 minutes before the first party members are started.

Party members should be in the artist’s chair at their designated time slot- just know the timeline is not an exact science and could be asked to start a bit earlier so don't disappear!

Kindly do not eat during any service. Sip your mimosa but eat that bagel before or after your service please! And don't worry, your team will touch you up before leaving. PLEASE BRUSH YOUR TEETH BEFORE YOUR FINAL TOUCH UP.

Switching time slots can be accommodated; however, it could mess up that beautifully timed schedule if too many people move their position, so it's not recommended.

Clients will not borrow or use any products or tools from stylists.

Makeup Prep

Our artists specialize in elegant, timeless soft glam to high-glam bridal makeup, which is included in all makeup services.

We consider full-glam makeup as that which has the following:

Full-face highlighting and contouring using multiple shades and layering.
Cut crease, heavy eyeshadow with intensity, sometimes including sparkle and deep pigment.
Extreme liner, smoked out or winged and heavy lashes.

Strip lashes are included with all makeup applications. A FULL LASH OF INDIVIDUAL LASHES IS NOT and is an additional $30 if requested on wedding day. Venmo @beautifulbrides.

Brows should be groomed/waxed/tweezed. Artist can pluck a few hairs, but full brow grooming is not provided.

All party members will receive traditional makeup. Airbrush makeup is up to the bride and will be included at contract signing. If someone who was not receiving airbrush wants to add this on wedding day, this is not permittted.

Please bring makeup inspiration photos.

Understand that party members’ makeup cannot be re-done if the artist executes what was asked for by the client. An “I don’t like how it looks on me” response can only be redone if time permits at the end of the timeline.

Please be realistic.

NO AI-GENERATED PHOTOS PLEASE!

Understand that 99.9% of inspiration (IG/Pinterest) are 100% photoshopped, edit and professionally lit. Many are completely AI generated.

High Glam Makeup

Soft Glam

Feel free to cleanse and moisturize before your makeup application.

Please feel free to bring your favorite lipstick or gloss so you have it to touch up all day.

Miscellaneous

Children under the age of 12 should be accompanied by an adult during service.
No breastfeeding, eating or speaking on cell phone during service.
No IV treatments during service.
No animals near service area.
Add-on services may be allowed if time permits and when everyone on the original timeline has been finished. Cash or Venmo only is accepted for add-on services. Kindly Venmo @beautifulbrides prior to service.
Wear a robe or other top that does not have to be lifted over your head. Button down shirts are not recommended as the collar can rub against hair and pull low styles out of place.

IMPORTANT

Our stylists are incredibly talented, but not magicians! Remember, social media photos are typically of models and are heavily edited, photoshopped and also employ false lighting to increase facial glow, shimmer and hair dimension.

Also, remember -- Don't be timid in expressing concerns or dissatisfaction to your artists. If you chose a look that once finished, you simply do not like it on YOU, that is not the fault of the artist and should be addressed right then and there. THEY ARE THERE TO MAKE SURE YOU 100% LOVE YOUR LOOK SO PLEASE SPEAK UP!

Embrace your natural beauty, and trust our artists to enhance your unique features authentically. Let's make your dream look a reality!
