From what I've seen (not sure if it's a cultural thing or in the area), brides get their bridesmaids nails done a week before the wedding and their hair/makeup done on the day of. I would've loved to do that but I don't know if I can afford that with my budget.
Here's my break down of services needed:
1. Bride - hair and makeup
2. MOB - just makeup
3. Grandma - just makeup
4. MOH - hair & makeup
5. Bridesmaid: "
6. Bridesmaid: "
7. Bridesmaid: "
8. Bridesmaid: "
3 of my bridal party (bridesmaids) will be traveling from out of town and there won't be time to get manicures done. My sister said that was okay to skip.
I'm thinking of calling my FH's cousin to do makeup for my bridesmaids. My bridesmaids are pretty low maintenance. I can also provide the makeup too (I have so many makeup palettes that are photograph ready, including a contour kit with that can acomodate with different skin tones).
I would only need to pay for hair services for my bridesmaids and I (6 people) and makeup for me (and I'll comp my FH's cousin for her services)
Would this be acceptable? Or is it too cheap?
EDIT: I would just ask them to provide their own foundation. I'm also wanting to provide a robe/pair of earrings as a gift.
