Absolutely! For weddings, I travel on-location to wherever you plan on getting ready, whether that’s at your home, hotel, or venue.

For non-wedding makeup appointments, I offer sessions both in-studio and on-location.

Please do not get a facial or wax your brows/face a few days prior to the makeup appointment, otherwise, the makeup application will not go on as it should.

Be sure to come to your appointment with a clean face. Feel free to do whatever skincare you normally do in the morning/prior to applying makeup.

While the choice is ultimately up to you, I recommend doing your bridal makeup trial 1 - 3 months before your wedding day. From my experience, this time frame is the sweet spot so that the “big day” isn’t too far away, and you’ve hopefully gotten into a good skincare routine/have a good idea of your complete wedding day vision at this point.
