Overview
Booking Tiffany Elie Makeup Artistry for your wedding or event is easy. First, check the availability of your wedding date via email (sam.tiffanyeliemakeup@gmail.
- Getting ready location (please let us know the city + if you're getting ready at a home, hotel, or your venue)
- Time you'd like services wrapped up (this can be determined by your photographers timeline and/or when your ceremony is)
- Confirmed number of people requiring makeup and/or hair services
Once these details are communicated, we're able to confirm our availability and put together a team for your day!
When you're ready to book, we will schedule a call to go over details together. We'll send over our contract for you to fill out + details for the deposit. 50% of total services will be required to secure the date.
There are a couple of options for booking the date. 1) Book the date and then schedule a preview appointment at your convenience. 2) You can schedule a trial-run of your hair & makeup before reserving the date. If you are confident in the Tiffany Elie Makeup style and like what you see in the portfolio, you should go with option 1. If you are undecided, it's best to go with option 2 and gain confidence through a trial first.
PREVIEW APPOINTMENT
You can visit our home studio or we will travel to your location and do your hair and/or makeup as if it were the day of your wedding. You will meet for up to 1.5 hours per service to create your custom look. You can preview the look, wear it for the day and evening to understand what it looks like in different lighting and how it wears.
How important is a trial?
Trials are highly recommended. Like any service at a wedding, a test-run is the best way to ensure it turns out exactly as you imagine. We encourage you to wear your look throughout the day to experience it in different lighting, temperatures and most importantly, make sure you're comfortable!
Scheduling a trial
Artists & stylists can be booked up to a year in advance so it’s a good idea to schedule your trial and consultation several months ahead of the big day. We recommend 2-6 months in advance. Availability is based on our studio and artists - we offer both weekdays and weekends. However, weekend availability can be limited during the months of April-October.
Note: Scheduling during daylight hours is ideal for getting the best natural lighting.
photos & inspiration
Ahead of the trial it can be helpful to share photos of the following items with us to incorporate into your look: a photo of you, your wedding dress, floral arrangements, bridesmaid dresses and any additional elements of your wedding that would provide a feel for the style you are going for. We take into consideration these details to give you the wedding version of yourself.
COST
The cost of a makeup trial is $125
Hair
We have a team of trusted professional hair stylists with many years of salon and bridal experience. Their passion is bridal and special event hair styling.
Hair Trial
To help acquire your dream look, it is recommended that all brides schedule a trial for their hair services. Together with the hair stylist, you will design a look that will compliment your face shape, dress and veil. Please bring the following if applicable:
- Veil or headpiece
- Hair jewelry or accessories
- Clip-in hair extensions for that wow factor
cost
*Specialized styles may require a blow-dry to prepare a smooth base for styling. If the client chooses to have a blow-dry in addition to their style, a $50 blow-dry fee will be added. The purpose of the blow-dry is to smooth out hair, reduce frizz and prepare for the main style. Extra time may need to added for the trial appointment.
