Every woman knows that their makeup is as important as the wedding itself. But your wedding day isn’t just any event, it could, in fact, be the most important day of your life! The last thing you want is getting your wedding compromised because of bad makeup or rather an unreliable makeup artist. Don’t know what to be talking about with your bridal makeup artist? Here are five important questions to ask before your wedding day.
Ask To See The Portfolio Of The Bridal Makeup Artist
You want to know how skillful your bridal makeup artist is, their style and versatility. You want to know if they can give you the ethereal look you are looking for if they will be willing to take your inputs because isn’t your wedding day? A portfolio of their past works will help you decide if they are what you need if they can give you the look you deserve.
Is It Okay If I call A Few References?
Whether it’s a wedding DJ in Toronto or a photographer or a bridal artist, there are some things a portfolio won’t tell you. For instance, you can’t find out from a portfolio if your wedding hair and makeup artist is easy to get along with, if she is always on time or if she is has a bad attitude. So it is important to ask for a few references to call. Their feedback will give you a feel of the kind of person you want to work with. On top of the whole wedding stress, you certainly don’t need a difficult makeup artist hovering around, because they are probably going to be with you almost the entire day.
What Do You Charge and How?
This is a very important part of hiring a Toronto bridal salon artist. Your bridal makeup artist may be the one to make up your bridesmaids, so you want to know if they will charge per person or give a price reduction for the group if their charges include staying with you throughout the ceremony to offer touch-ups, and how you are going to make the payment. This is a part you want to get sorted out to avoid surprises later.
Do I Get a Trial Run Before My Wedding?
A trial run gives you the opportunity to see firsthand what it is like to work with your bridal makeup artist. You can use this opportunity to tell them the look you want for your wedding day and to see how long the makeup will last. During the trial run, it is advisable to make a camera available so you can see if the makeup looks good on camera or not.
What If There Is An Emergency?
The last thing you want on your wedding day is your bridal makeup artist telling you she would be late or would not be able to make it without some already made backup plans. So before then, it is important you ask what is going to happen in case of an emergency? Will another artist replace her? Will her assistants take over duty? Also, ask if they will refund your money in case there is a cancellation.
