  • Maureen is the absolute best!! I am still in awe of how beautiful she made me feel on my wedding day. Both my hair and makeup were better than I could have dreamed of and the rest of my bridal party also looked so stunning! She is so sweet and organized, and I'm so thankful I found her!

  • Maureen made my wedding day absolutely perfect. She did my hair and makeup for my wedding day and exceeded my expectations! I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to her if I had another formal event.

  • Maureen is an absolute dream to work with! My hair on my wedding day was a work of art, and I received SO many compliments on how great it looked. I opted for an updo so I could freely dance all night, and it stayed put all night.

Bridal FAQs

01How do I reserve my wedding date?

Start by sending your wedding date, location, service needs, and timeline details through the inquiry form. If your date is available, we will send a proposal with next steps. Your date is officially reserved once a signed agreement and booking retainer are received.

02Do you require a retainer or deposit?

Yes. Like most bridal beauty professionals, a booking retainer and signed service agreement are required to hold your date. The retainer amount, how it applies toward your total, and the remaining balance schedule are all outlined clearly in your proposal before you commit.

03What are your payment and cancellation policies?

The remaining balance is due before the wedding day, on the schedule stated in your agreement. Because your date is held exclusively for you once booked, retainers are generally non-refundable — the full cancellation and date-change policy is provided in writing with your proposal so there are never surprises.

04Is there a travel fee?

On-location service is standard for wedding mornings. Any travel fee depends on your getting-ready location and is itemized in your proposal — you will always see it in writing before booking.
