As less as ten years ago it would be almost unheard of for a bride other than a celebrity to have her own personal make-up artist on the wedding day. Now, due to the number of beauty consultants working on their own account, what used to be an expensive luxury is now considered by most brides to be a wedding day essential. The advantages of having your own make-up artist on the day are obvious. No rushing to and from the hairdressers on the morning of the big day and no last minute panics when something, inevitably, goes wrong.
Most people offering this service are fully mobile and will come to your home or wedding venue on the day, which means you can get ready at your leisure and actually enjoy the experience of being pampered just like a princess on your big day. It's generally a good idea to organise a make-up artist well in advance of the actual day. Most established artists will be in demand during the wedding season so booking as early as possible is an absolute must.
A few tips for successful wedding day hair and make-up
- Get recommendations from friends, your photographer and other wedding suppliers if they can suggest someone. Quite often they will have worked with several make-up artists before and will be best placed to make a recommendation.
- Book your make-up artist at least 3 months before the big day and make sure they offer a full make-up trial.
- Decide if your bridesmaids and other members of the wedding party will be having professional make-up too? Obviously if there are a number of people to look after on the day the price will reflect this but booking a group will be more economical than everyone making their own arrangements.
- Look after your skin before the wedding date, drink plenty of water, get lots of fresh air and exercise. It really will show on the day.
- On the day itself make sure your hair & make-up artist can work uninterrupted for as long as possible. The end result will be much better if your consultant is allowed to work unhindered by anxious mums and demanding bridesmaids.
- Don't skimp on quality. Most professional beauticians will insist on using the best cosmetic materials. The reason for this is that most regular cosmetic brands are not good enough to last an entire day. A few extra pounds spent on quality cosmetics is seldom wasted.
- Stick to the original script and don't ask for any last minute changes. The point of having a trial before hand is to get the perfect look rehearsed to a T. To veer from this well rehearsed script will often be unwise.
- Have your make-up assistant on hand throughout the day if your budget will run to it - it's an extra expense that is seldom regretted. Failing this, make sure you have the essentials easily to hand for touch-ups as the day progresses
Like all wedding planning tasks the essentials of successful wedding day make-up are in the details of planning and preparation. Do your homework and make sure you and your make-up consultant are singing from the same hymn sheet. Most importantly, have fun and enjoy your wedding day!
