How should you tip if you have more than one hair and makeup artist?
Chelsea, on March 6, 2022 at 4:43 PM

I know you’re supposed to tip your hair and makeup artist 15-20% of the total for services. But what if you have two artists? The second artist will be helping out, working on the bridesmaids while...

Hello all! My vendor for hair and makeup is asking when everyone needs to be ready by. How many hours before the ceremony should the bridal party be ready by? Thank you in advance!

What’s better? Airbrush makeup or the traditional?
Anaiz, on February 9, 2022 at 12:43 AM

What’s better? I have heard that airbrush makeup lasts longer and is better for those that have oily skin. Or would it be just better to hire someone that does makeup freelancer such as MUA?

To my fellow brides, I highly recommend getting it done! I went for the old Hollywood glam look and my artist pulled it off beautifully. Hoping it looks this good on the big day 🤞🏼
