Hair and Makeup Trial Discounts

Trials are NOW $40 per service for a limited time. PERSONAL AND PRETTY: This is the one bridal related errand that’s all about YOU so relax and enjoy!

GET MILAGE OUT OF YOUR LOOK: Schedule your beauty preview on the same day of your engagement or boudoir session so may look extra special with professional hair and makeup.  Another idea is to wear your look (the evening of your trial) on a date-night. 

Also – a unique BSB Tip – whenever possible, schedule your hair and makeup preview to coincide with a dress fitting or go accessory shopping wearing your look for fashion inspiration.  Another fun tip – shop for your ‘sweet nothings’ wearing your dolled up look.  Looking and feeling glam will put you in a romantic mood. 

You’ll get loads of compliments running your bridal errands looking and feeling bridal beautiful – and who doesn’t love that?

When winter’s chill hits, go warm and get glam with feline-inspired treaures. Snuggle in a furry throw as you enjoy the masculine scent of woodsy-scented candles or don a fuzzy bag, add your favorite leopard-patterned accessory and head out to flash a seductive glance in cat-eye eyeliner.

SHADES OF WINTER, $49

bridal contracts, bride style beauty, important beauty contracts, wedding contracts

As a busy  bride, it’s understandable most of you lovely ladies are getting to all your vendor appointments and doing your homework as best you can between regular duties of life such as your job, doctor’s appointments, family functions and the like but don’t let this one slip away from you.

 When you reserve your hair and makeup for your big day, make sure the artistry team uses a contract.  We can’t tell you how many calls we get from brides whose artists have “bailed on them” last minute.  Sure, there are a variety of reasons, many are legitimate but sometimes, what the brides don’t know is that the artist they “booked” got a better offer to do a bigger party and dropped them like a hot potato, so get it in writing.  The benefit is, your artistry team knows you are serious about having them come out to you and provide their talents on the specified day and time and you know they are committed to being there for you, regardless of whether another bride with a party of 15 calls them 2 weeks before your big day. 

There are only 52 weeks in a  year and multiple weddings take place on any given weekend, so make sure you’re covered.  Even though bridal hair and makeup is one of the more affordable vendor services you will book, especially compared to the cost of renting a venue or providing an open bar, it is still one of the most important aspects of your wedding, since every person, without a doubt, will be focused entirely upon getting a gander of YOU, the gorgeous bride; your dress, your face, your hair;  more than anything, those who know you and those who don’t, if there’s a wedding in the vicinity, EVERYONE wants to get a good look at the bride, so make sure you are signed, sealed and delivered, with what you need to look your best.
