Clear standards protect the experience on both sides. Below are our booking requirements, payment structure, travel and early start policies, and what to expect.

A: Dates are secured only with a signed contract and a 50% non-refundable retainer. 

Q: What is the early start fee?

A: Call times before 8:00 AM incur an early start fee per artist. This is confirmed in your proposal once your timeline is finalized.

Q: Do I need to prepare anything?

A: You’ll receive a prep checklist after booking. In general: arrive with clean skin and follow product pause guidance for treatments where applicable.

Q: Do you have a minimum for on-site bridal bookings?
