Frequently Asked Questions

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK?
As soon as you know your date! Month such as May, June, September and October tend to book out the quickest, but depending on your date and season dates can book up 3-12 months in advance. 

HOW DO I SECURE MY WEDDING DATE? 
The only way to secure your date is by returning a signed contract and 30% non- refundable retainer. The retainer does apply towards your wedding day balance.

 HOW MANY SERVICES CAN YOU ACCOMMODATE?
On my own I can accommodate 6-8 makeup services. It all depends on the time frame available, however if you have a large bridal party and a small time frame I will bring on a second artist to help get everyone done in a timely manner. *Second artist fee may apply.*

DO YOU DO TRIALS? 
Yes, Trial are required and included with Bridal Makeup. (I highly recommend using your Trial for Engagement Portraits/Engagement Portraits)
Trial can be added to any appointment, and are a great way to determine the exact look you are wanting, plus they are a perfect opportunity to get to know each other better and make sure that we are a good fit for each other. I recommend scheduling 30-45 days out from your wedding. 

WHERE & WHEN DO TRIALS TAKE PLACE?
Trial run scheduling can vary, but typically are done Mon-Fri 9-6pm as my weekends are reserved for weddings.
All trial take place at 4118 S Sheridan Rd. Suite 109, Tulsa, Ok.

 WHAT KIND OF MAKEUP DO YOU USE?
I am not loyal to any one brand of makeup , working in the retail side of makeup I got the chance to play with all kinds of brands and learned that different brands have amazing products.

DO YOU OFFER BRIDAL HAIRSTYLING AS WELL?
No, I don't offer bridal makeup. I recommend all my brides to www.sampalmer.com. If you book with both of us we  offer the convenience of having only one Trial Run appointment for hair and makeup. 

 DO YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH ETHNIC/ACNE/MATURE SKIN TYPES?
Yes, having worked with various makeup brands I was exposed to any and all skin types. My kit is all inclusive and can create the perfect shade for you! 

WILL MY MAKEUP LAST THROUGH CRYING, SWEATING,ECT?
Yes, I use long wearing (and waterproof/resistant) products and seal it all with setting spray! The only touch ups you may need would be a little powder (if you tend to get oily) and a bit of lipstick.

I CAN'T GET READY AT MY VENUE, DO YOU HAVE A SPACE I CAN GET READY AT? 
Absolutely, you are more than welcome to get ready at my studio along with your bridal party! Bring champagne, snacks and let's make it a party!
