Yes I do, wedding vendors typically book super quickly, and have various inquiries on the same dates. For this reason I require a 30% non refundable retainer & signed contract to secure your date.

Can you accommodate a larger bridal party?
It depends on the time you must be ready by. For example if you have a bridal party of 8 with a ready by time of noon, a second artist would be needed.
How do you clean/sanitize makeup?
This is extremely important to me! I use makeup sanitizing spray on all powder products between each client, this prevents cross contamination. I use a stainless steel spatula, and tray to scoop out any products, and only use disposable sponges, lip wands, and mascara wands. To clean surfaces, and tools I use 70% alcohol.
How long does it take you to do makeup?
It takes me 30 minutes to set up upon arrival, 45 minutes for Bridesmaids/Others, and 1 hr for the bride. I also take 5 minutes in between to sanitize/reorganize my station. I send out a full timeline 4 weeks prior to the wedding.
