    Additional Artists: $200 per additional artist will apply beyond the two artists included to meet timeline requirements like a shorter glam time. Plus travel rate per additional artist.

    Early Morning fee: $50 rate per artist per hour before 8 am start time. We know you do not want to get up that early, and neither do we...consider your makeup artist wakes up 2 hours before start time to arrive to your location. This is an add on for any parties which start before 8 am. So if your ceremony is at 12pm, you are in a time crunch, or have to be ready before noon, consider early fee.

  • Yes, we offer bridal makeup and hair trials in Dallas so you can preview your wedding day look before the big day. It´s included in our bridal package. If you choose to forgo the trial from your package, the service will not be refunded, reduced, or exchanged.

    A bridal trial is highly recommended for brides who want to feel confident about their wedding makeup and bridal hairstyle and ensure everything photographs beautifully.

    During your Dallas bridal makeup trial, we work together to design a look that complements your wedding dress, skin tone, face shape, and overall bridal style—whether you’re dreaming of soft glam bridal makeup, natural bridal beauty, or full glam wedding makeup. We also test the bridal hairstyle, such as romantic waves, elegant updos, or Hollywood glam waves, to make sure it lasts all day.

    A bridal hair and makeup trial in Dallas also allows us to:

    • Perfect your long-lasting wedding makeup

    • Adjust your bridal hairstyle for comfort and hold

    • Test how your bridal beauty look photographs

    • Plan the wedding day timeline for bridal party makeup and hair

    Most brides schedule their bridal trial 1–3 months before the wedding or around the time of their engagement photos, bridal portraits, or dress fitting.

    If you’re searching for professional bridal makeup and hair in Dallas, a trial is the best way to ensure your wedding day glam feels flawless, natural, and truly you.

    We highly recommend a trial run before the wedding. Trials are to test your look, not our skills and aesthetic, you can see that from our portfolio and socials.

    This is the time to choose the exact wedding look you want, so that on your day, it can be mastered and applied efficiently. A trial run also gives you the chance to photograph yourself in the makeup look and see how you feel!

    The trial is limited to one look - if you wish to trial multiple looks, these will need to be booked under separate appointments.

    No half faces or one and one eye. Trust us, you would like to see the whole vision come to life, not parts of.

    Family members trials are booked as another separate appointment.

    Trial does not count for minimum services on location.

    Does not include tattoo cover up. Please inquire with photo.

    **Trials available Monday - Friday. **

    We´ll send a Bridal Trial Guide.

    Engagement glam appointments are not considered a bridal trial. This is a glam appointment with no extensive consultation like on a bridal trial and no bridal inspiration photos and execution. You can use this appointment to test our skills and aesthetic, but not test your wedding look.

    If you are wanting to have a trial before booking your wedding date, please note that your wedding date cannot be held until wedding deposit is paid.

  • If you’re planning a wedding, it’s best to book your bridal makeup and hair artist in Dallas 6–12 months in advance, especially if your wedding falls during peak wedding season (March–June and September–November). Top Dallas bridal makeup artists and hairstylists often book out quickly for weekends, popular venues, and large bridal parties.

    For luxury bridal beauty services in Dallas, many brides secure their wedding day makeup and hair team shortly after booking their venue and photographer. This ensures you get your preferred professional bridal makeup artist and hairstylist and allows time to schedule a bridal makeup trial and hair preview before the big day.

    If your wedding is during a holiday weekend or at a popular Dallas wedding venue, booking 9–12 months ahead is highly recommended.

    General booking timeline for bridal beauty in Dallas:

    • 9–12 months before: Ideal for peak season weddings and larger bridal parties

    • 6–9 months before: Still good availability for most dates

    • 3–6 months before: Limited availability for experienced bridal artists

    • Less than 3 months: Possible, but options may be limited

    Booking early also allows time to plan bridal party makeup and hair services, timeline coordination, and on-location glam for your wedding morning.
