The trial: essential
Plan a full trial, hair and make-up, a few weeks before the wedding. Bring photos of your outfit, your accessories and hairstyles you like. It is also the moment to check that you get on well.
Lasting through the heat
In summer, the heat and sun put make-up to the test. A professional used to weddings in the south will use long-wear, water-resistant products and leave you what you need for touch-ups during the evening.
Coming to you
Most professionals travel to wherever you are getting ready. Check the travel costs, the arrival time and how long they need if you would also like your bridesmaids or family to have their hair and make-up done. Set aside a bright room for them to work in.
