We
would LOVE to congratulate our team on booking over 100 weddings for
2013! We are so proud of our amazing stylists, makeup artists and
support staff for making this all possible; not to mention a HUGE
THANK YOU to all of our beautiful brides!
If
you are planning on booking with us for an upcoming wedding, we would
love to share some useful information with you to make this aspect of
your wedding planning as easy as possible!

| The ladies of Avenue 42! |
BOOKING:
All booking inquiries should be directed to our booking manager,
Diane Eppers. Diane helps each and every bride with the logistics of
booking artists from our team! She will carefully match you with a
stylist/makeup artist to complete your look on your big day. It is
best to have as close to an exact number as possible of the amount of
people in your bridal party receiving services on the wedding day to
ensure each and every person is given the highest level of service
possible.
TRIAL:
We highly recommend doing a bridal trial! Even the most relaxed
brides should take the time to consult with their hair and makeup
team before their day of. This appointment is completed in-salon by
the stylist/makeup artist that will be with you on the day of your
wedding. The trial gives you time to get to know your stylist and to
work together to achieve your desired look as well as offers a bit of
piece of mind that you will not encounter a hair and makeup nightmare
on your big day.
MAINTENANCE:
All of our hair and makeup team are professionals! Each artist works
closely with the technical aspects of their respective trades on a
daily basis. Refer to your stylists advice on when to color or cut
your hair before your special day. Your makeup artist can suggest
what sort of preparation may be necessary for your skin.
NEXT
STEP: After your trial is completed, you can then move forward with
the booking process. A contract and deposit are required to secure
our team for your big day. Your contract will arrive via email, and
your deposit can be taken care of through our booking manager or
in-salon on the day of your trial. We do suggest moving quickly with
booking, especially during peak wedding season.
TIPS FOR YOUR HAIR AND MAKEUP TRIAL:
•
If
you are doing a makeup trial, it is best to arrive with a clean face.
Makeup is often hard to completely remove with facial wipes/makeup
remover and may often leave a residue on the skin.
•
Wear
a top that is similar in color to your gown! This will give you as
well as your makeup artist a better idea of how your makeup will look
against your gown.
•
Leave
enough time before your last brow/facial waxing appointment for your
skin to return to its normal state. We do NOT suggest waxing right
before your makeup trial. Give it at least 24 hours!
•
Be
as close to as tan as you would like to be on your day of. If you are
planning on receiving a spray tan before your big day, we suggest doing a trial spray tan a few days before your bridal trial.
•
Preferences
for hair preparation vary with stylist. Some stylists prefer hair
that has been washed a day before, and some prefer to wash and set
your hair before completing your style. When booking your trial, be
sure to ask what your stylists preference is!
•
If
you have any allergic reactions to makeup, please notify us before
your appointment time. Please specify the items you are allergic to
and how severe your allergies are.
•
If
using a hair embellishment, it is always best to bring it with you.
Any hair stye up or down can be completely structurally changed when
adding a comb, headband, or clip. We would like to make sure your
style is as secure as possible on the day of your trial so we can
replicate the look on the day of. If you change your mind between the
time of your trial and the time of your day of, let your stylist
know!
•
Bring
any jewelry and accessories you plan on wearing on the day of your
wedding. Earrings and necklaces can often be hidden by certain
hairstyles, and we would like to ensure your special accessories are
visible if this is the look you desire.
We ALWAYS welcome new brides and clients! Contact our booking manager, Diane, with Bridal inquiries at Diane@ave42.com, or contact our studio for regular appointments and additional information at 804.303.3139.

Ave 42
