You’re Newly Engaged—Now What? The Ultimate Guide to Booking Your Bridal Makeup Artist

January 2, 2025

First of all, congratulations! 💍 You’re officially engaged, and this is such an exciting time. The ring, the love, the Pinterest boards—it’s all happening! But let’s talk about one very important detail that many brides overlook until it’s too late: booking your bridal makeup artist.

Why Book Your Makeup Artist Early?

The truth is, talented bridal makeup artists book up fast—sometimes a year or more in advance. Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime moment, and you deserve to feel like the most beautiful version of yourself. Soft glam, timeless elegance, or a bold bridal statement—whatever your dream look, finding the right artist who understands your vision is crucial.

Booking early also gives you the time to schedule a trial, where you can fine-tune your look and get to know your artist’s vibe. It’s not just about makeup; it’s about trust and feeling confident that your artist will make you look and feel flawless on your big day.

When Should You Book?

Once you have your wedding date and venue locked in, your makeup artist should be next on your list. Most brides book their makeup artist 9–12 months before their wedding day, especially for popular seasons like spring and fall. If your date falls on a holiday weekend or during wedding season, it’s even more important to act quickly.

Don’t Wait Too Long!

If you wait until the last minute, you risk having to settle for someone who might not specialize in bridal beauty—or worse, someone who doesn’t align with your style. The best artists are in high demand, and you don’t want to miss out.

So, Newly Engaged Bride, What’s Your Next Move?

Let’s make magic happen! ✨ Whether you’re envisioning a soft, romantic glow or something bold and modern, I’d love to bring your dream bridal look to life.

📅 Call today to check my availability and secure your date.
