Bridal Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I check if you are available for my wedding date?

Bridal availability is confirmed through the bridal inquiry form. Wedding dates are personally reviewed based on your date, start time, location, and service scope. Studio business hours do not reflect bridal availability.

2. Does submitting the inquiry form automatically book my date?

No. Submitting an inquiry does not reserve your wedding date. Dates are officially secured with a signed contract and required deposit.

3. How far in advance should I book?

Brides typically secure their makeup artist 6 to 12 months in advance. Peak wedding seasons book quickly, and availability is limited.

4. What is required to reserve my wedding date?

A signed contract and required deposit are required to officially reserve your date. Wedding dates are secured on a first come basis.

5. Can I use my pre-wedding event makeup as my bridal consultation?

This option is available only for brides booking under the A La Carte bridal pricing structure.
A bride may choose to use her included pre-wedding event makeup application as her bridal consultation. If selected, the pre-wedding event service is forfeited and replaced with the consultation. The service may not be used for both purposes.

6. Do I still need a bridal consultation if I live out of town or San Antonio is my destination?

Yes. A bridal consultation is required for all brides, including destination and out-of-town clients.
Many brides choose to schedule their consultation when they visit San Antonio to obtain their marriage license prior to the wedding date.
If you are unable to meet in person, you will be required to provide detailed inspiration photos, clear descriptions of your desired look, and accurate information regarding your skin type and preferences. Thorough communication is essential to ensure your bridal look is executed exactly as envisioned.

7. How many services can you complete without an additional makeup artist?

• Felicity can complete up to four makeup applications independently while maintaining quality, timing, and bridal standards.

• For parties with more than 4 services or for tighter timelines, an additional makeup artist may be required to ensure a seamless wedding morning experience.

8. Do you provide makeup for the bridal party?

Yes. Bridal party services are available and scheduled according to the wedding timeline. Larger parties may require an additional makeup artist to ensure a seamless and stress-free wedding morning.
False strip lashes are included with all makeup services, including bridal party applications.

9. Do you offer individual lash extensions?

• No. Individual lash extensions are not offered as part of bridal or bridal party makeup services. To maintain efficiency and ensure a smooth wedding morning timeline, false strip lashes are applied and included with every makeup service.

• For brides or bridal party members seeking professional lash extensions prior to the wedding, I recommend:

10. Do you travel for weddings?

Yes. Travel is available for on-location weddings. Travel fees apply and are calculated based on round-trip mileage from the studio location. Additional mileage beyond the included range is charged per mile.

11. What is included in bridal makeup?

Bridal makeup includes wedding day application designed for long wear, professional photography, and longevity. Specific inclusions vary by package and are detailed in the bridal pricing guide.

12. Do you offer touch-ups or second looks?

Yes. Touch-up services are available for $120 per hour. Touch-up time begins once the final makeup application is completed.

13. When should I get a facial before the wedding?

It is recommended to schedule your final facial 1 to 2 weeks before the wedding. Facials help remove impurities and improve skin texture, but they can sometimes cause temporary breakouts or sensitivity. Allowing 1 to 2 weeks ensures your skin has time to settle while still maintaining a healthy glow.

14. When should I get my brows waxed or microshaded?

• Brow waxing or shaping should be done approximately 5 to 7 days before the wedding to allow any redness or irritation to subside.

• Microshading or microblading should be completed at least 8 to 12 weeks before the wedding to allow proper healing and any necessary touch-ups before the big day.

15. What happens if my schedule changes?

Timeline adjustments should be communicated as soon as possible. Wedding day scheduling is based on your contracted service scope and start time.
