Are you doing your own makeup for your wedding? Are you having it done by a friend or family member? At a salon? Having someone come to you that day? I'm still trying to decide what i'm doing. I'm good at doing my own makeup, but I do want to look extra special that day. I can' afford a makeup...

I'm still trying to decide what i'm doing. I'm good at doing my own makeup, but I do want to look extra special that day. I can' afford a makeup artist though, so I may ask my FH's sister who always looks well made-up to help me

    I’m doing my own makeup, I’m pretty confident about it and my wedding is only five hours so if it can hold up at work I’m sure my wedding will be just fine.
    Hair im having somebody do it at a salon (3 minutes away from my venue but saves travel cost!)

    I’m doing my own- still trying out long wear products but I mostly have it down. I just feel like If someone else does my makeup I’ll look weirdly not like myself lol. I do my makeup almost everyday so I’m confident in my abilities, also I love saving money if I can!

    I'm having someone meet us at the venue to do makeup for me, my mom and my bridesmaids.

    This is something I really contemplated budget wise. I decide it was going to be worth it for me (I'm not entirely girly so my makeup is very basic and I wanted to look extra special as well). I ended up getting a decent deal because my bridesmaids all wanted it done too (they are paying their way on it). Our makeup artist will come to our cabins at 9am and then at 1130 we will all go to the venue (makeup artist too) and she will continue hair and makeup until we start at 4pm. with her travel fees ($40) My makeup was about $180 and my girls are all around 100-120. we split the travel cost 6 ways so it was virtually nothing added onto our totals.

    I can do basic makeup on my own but I want to look extra special on my wedding day so I'm in the middle of trying to find a HMUA now.

    I’m getting mine done at my venue. No need to worry about weather, or my face melting, or any of that 😂
