Bridal Hair & Makeup by The Beauty Bar

Congratulations on your engagement! Working as a hairstylist and makeup artist for the last eight years I've been privileged to work with hundreds of brides and their bridal entourage. Here you'll find some tips from the trial to the actual wedding day that I hope will make your planning easier.

Trial

For this you would come to our studio. On this day, we will lay out the road map and test drive your look. A lot of brides will plan their trial on a day they also will be going to the dress fitting, which is a great idea because you will also get a sense of how everything will look when put together. We welcome our brides to bring along any tear sheets (pictures torn from magazines) of any styles they like as well as any accessories they plan on wearing on their big day. Once we find the look you love, we take pictures so that exact look will can be duplicated on your wedding day.

Booking

From the months of May to November, weddings are most popular so we suggest that you book your wedding date at least five months prior - the earlier the better. If you have any questions you can always e-mail us. We require a deposit and signed contract to book your date.

Your Wedding Day

We'll have our kits ready and packed and will be at your desired location 15 minutes prior to start time so that we can set up. We'll have a chair and lighting in addition to making sure we are ready to start. After everyone has been 'glamified' you can walk down the aisle with confidence and just enjoy your awesome day!

Beauty Maid

From the moment you walk down the aisle to cutting the cake and making a grand exit all eyes are on you which is why The Beauty Bar offers the services of your very own Beauty Maid on your wedding day. An artist from our Beauty Squad will be at your side for as long as you need them to offer makeup touch ups and hair style adjustments so you look your absolute best. We can travel to Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and throughout Connecticut for weddings and to offer our artistic beauty talents so you are primed for every photo opportunity.

A bride should be pampered on her wedding day. This special occasion calls for royal treatment and with a Beauty Maid at your side you'll receive timely beauty strokes that will assure your makeup and hair are just right, even when you remove the veil. Wedding ceremonies are rife with ritual and photo shoots and no bride can expect her hair and makeup to survive all the commotion intact. Instead of relying on nervous bridesmaids, take advantage of your own personal beauty maid to offer expert advice and final touches to assure you're ready for every stage of the wedding.

Our beauty maids are thoroughly trained in makeup and hair and can be counted on to keep close watch on your look so every picture comes out great. No more sneaking peeks in windows and silverware or ducking behind a bridesmaid to provide a quick fix for a makeup smudge or windblown hair. Your beauty maid will be a step ahead of every situation to make sure you glow like a bride should.

Pre-consult Advice

We recommend that no microdermabrasions, facials or Botox be done 1 ½ months prior to your big day since this might bring up some unwanted blemishes and or swelling.

Drink plenty of water and enjoy your day.
