The reservation payment stands at £50 per artist booked at the time of booking.
If for any reason you wish to decrease the number of services resulting in having to cancel one of the artists, this will result in a loss of the reservation payment for that artist to cover the holding of the date and refusing other work for this date and admin time involved.
The reservation payment will be deducted from your wedding day invoice total not your trial date. Your trial payment will be due on the day of the trial.
All Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays throughout the year are charged at peak rates.

Trials are carried out in the day to allow the client to see how the makeup wears throughout the course of the day and in natural light.
Trials are carried out at our studio in Hailsham, East Sussex. Trial payments are not refundable under any circumstances.
