Reliable Support from an Experienced Professional

Micro Weddings

As a freelance hairstylist and makeup artist, I specialize in catering to smaller groups, ensuring that you and your closest confidants look absolutely stunning. With the ability to handle up to 10 services, including the bride, there's no need to stress about gathering a large group in order to satisfy minimums. Whether it's just you or a small bridal party, I've got you covered. 

Large Wedding Parties

While I love weddings, I love work-life balance more. I do not enjoy hiring or training sub-contractors anymore. However, I can cater to large groups by offering my services as a sub-contractor; seamlessly working alongside other artists that you have personally selected.  If you are building your own carefully crafted beauty team, let me know! I can provide you with referrals to artists who I think are fantastic and fun to work with. If you don't want the burden of hiring a sub-contractor, let me know. I can provide this service for an additional fee of $150.

Trial runs are performed in a professional setting in my Mundelein home. 

I will hold your wedding date on my calendar until you complete the trial run. 

Brides are encouraged to bring a friend or relative.  Trial runs typically take 2.5 - 3 hours.

Create a Schedule

Your contract and retainer invoice will reflect the number of services you estimate your party will need. As your wedding day approaches I will ask for a final count you supply to create your getting ready schedule.
