FAQ
I recommend booking your hair and makeup artists as early as possible to ensure you secure your preferred professionals and avoid unnecessary stress leading up to your wedding day. Ideally, I would suggest booking 6 to 12 months in advance. This gives you enough time to lock in your desired artists, especially if you’re getting married during peak wedding season, when many makeup artists and hairstylists get fully booked quickly. Booking early also allows you to schedule a trial session, so you have time to perfect your look before the big day.
If your wedding is in the off-season or you have more flexibility, booking 3 to 6 months in advance might still work, but you may find that availability becomes more limited as time goes on. Booking at least 2 months in advance is still possible, but it’s a bit last-minute and may require you to adjust your timing or find an alternative artist if your first choice is already taken.
By booking early, you give yourself the peace of mind that comes with knowing your hair and makeup team is in place. It also allows you to coordinate with your bridal party and make sure everyone has their spot, while giving your artists enough time to manage their schedules. In the end, it’s best to book 6 to 12 months before your wedding if you can, to ensure you have plenty of time to get everything just right.
The best time to schedule your hair and makeup trial is usually about 4 to 6 weeks before your wedding day. This timing allows you to see how your look will come together, but it’s also close enough to your wedding that your preferences are clear, and any changes can be made before the big day.
Scheduling your trial a bit ahead of time also gives you the flexibility to plan it around another special event, like an engagement shoot, bridal shower, or rehearsal dinner. This way, you can test the look in a real-life setting and make sure everything stays in place and feels comfortable.
It’s also a great opportunity to experiment with different styles, tweak things if needed, and ensure you're 100% happy with the final look!

Get Expert AdviceWhat's better - fake lashes or eyelash extensions?
Hi! Wondering what to do with my lashes for my wedding. Should I get eyelash extensions, or should I ask for false individual lashes? Is there a preference from a makeup artist's perspective too?
Kelly Amelia Makeup
Individual lashes are a great choice for your wedding day because they’re super customisable. You can pick exactly how full or natural you want them to look, which means they’ll be perfect for your style. The best part is they’re applied just for the day, so there’s no long-term commitment or aftercare needed—you can simply enjoy them and remove them at the end of the night. The application is quick, usually taking about 10 minutes. Plus, you don’t have to think about them before the wedding, making it one less thing to stress over. Individual lashes are perfect for giving your eyes a gorgeous, full look that’ll last all day, without the hassle of extensions.
When's the best time to have a hair and makeup trial?
Wondering how far out before the wedding is best, but also, would like to use the trial to help me choose my suppliers.
