Your wedding day is about making the ultimate commitment to your partner, but you might find that during the planning process, you also make some great new friendships with the people helping to put your dream wedding together. Your hair and makeup team is crucial to a seamless walk down the aisle, and you need to be able to rely on them completely to help you feel your best on your big day. So in a sea of stylists, how do you find the ones that are right for you? Luckily our beauty editor Kori Mahoney is here to share some tips on the process! (image source)

  1. Ask your wedding planner for recommendations. They have generally been planning weddings in your location for quite some time, and offer a wealth of knowledge and one of the best little black books in town.
  2. If you have a hairstylist that you see on a regular basis, or someone who glams you up at the makeup counter before a big night out, ask them if they frequently do weddings or offer onsite services. Since you already trust them and they know your style, it would be an easy transition.
  3. That said, make sure you see examples of their work for more formal occasions since something that looks great for the office or a night out doesn’t always translate into the polished wedding style you’re going for.
  4. Don’t forget to ask them about their availability the day of your wedding and for any trial runs scheduled before. If they will be doing your bridesmaids’ hair and makeup as well, ask them if they have a team to help or what kind of time you should allow for if they are doing it individually.
  5. Make sure to find out about the cost for their services, especially if it includes traveling to the wedding location, or styling your bridesmaids as well. Since wedding budgets can easily add up, you won’t want to be surprised when you get the final bill.
  6. Last but not least, make sure your beauty team works well together and that your hair and makeup create one cohesive look. You might ask your hair stylist if she has a makeup artist she could recommend and vice versa to make sure they have the same style and vision. Doing a trial run will also make sure everything works well together. Pay attention to not only the overall look they provide, but also the chemistry you have with them to ensure a fun and glamorous wedding day!
