For the Brides Inquiring Early 💍
It is NOT EARLY 💍
Do Not Wait to Book your wedding Day Makeup, especially in Wilmington and Wrightsville Beach where so many brides travel for Destination Weddings.
When you find a Style you Love - Secure your Artist Early.
We Book a Year or 2 in Advance!
Lately I’ve been having to say “I’m Sorry I am No longer Available for your date” to those who reached out early and then waited too long to book!
Love a peach cheek and lip moment 🍑

Note the check ins 🤍
I’m always checking in with my brides along the way to ensure we are working smart not hard!
We can always add more but once you lay down too much pigment - it’s harder to take it away so I’ve learned over the years to stay on track and add as we go and after I take photos of the initial look !
This way we can see the full picture !

Bridal Preview with Chloe 💍
When your bride tells you you were the 1st vendor she booked while still in Paris right after her fiancé proposed 💍
What a compliment!
I feel so grateful to have the best brides who have already made up their minds before they even reach out to book 🙏

Makeup Talk :
Trust the artist you hire🤍
Be clear with what you like and don’t like and if you truly just don’t know , I Do Know and will help you along the way 🤍
Resist the urge to Micro Manage 🤍
After your consult/ Allow your artist to create for you 🤍
I do makeup in my own order so please understand your order may not be the same as mine 🤍 there is no set way or cookie cutter application method
Once I create a rough draft we work together on edits and I always welcome honesty and change or add whatever my clients like , this is not the same as micro managing.
I urge clients to speak up if they want any edits - that is normal and totally expected🤍
The Trial is never the finished product / Wedding Day is always the Best 🤍
When you hire a professional and then don’t trust or micromanage every little detail it takes the joy out of our jobs and speaks more to a lack of trust and lack of confidence and at this stage of my career I’m grateful for clients who trust my expertise and look to me as a source of knowledge and inspiration regarding makeup 🤍
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
