We require a service minimum of $750 per team member for weddings Friday - Sunday.

Additional fees such as retainer, travel fees, additional team member, etc are not applied towards the service minimum/rate equivalent. Non-refundable retainer of $350 is due at the time of contract submission.

Please be conservative in the number of services you list on your contract. If you are unsure at the time you complete your contract, please list only the minimum required and add services as your wedding date approaches. This will prevent you from potentially paying for more services than you actually need if you over commit early on and do not notify us of drop off services before your invoice is sent out.

Please note that your retainer payment is due with your signed contract, and the remaining balance of your services is due at the time of your preview appointment.

We only reserve dates up to 18 months in advance. You are welcome to reach out sooner though! Brandi can always add you to a wait list to contact when we are 18 months out from your wedding date so that we can get you officially booked with your glam squad

If you want to try it before you buy it, we do offer preview appointments for brides that are not yet under contract. We cannot; however, hold your wedding date and/or specific team members without the contract and retainer on file. This means the sooner you book your preview appointment, the better!

Preview appointment, per service cost, is $200, outside of contract. If you choose to book, this is deducted from your total owed.

At the time you submit your contract, the remaining balance is due as your non-refundable retainer payment.

Please note that we only will hold a wedding appointment date for the 48 hours following your preview appointment.

Preview appointments are mandatory with our team. It is the time where we get to know you, you get to know your team member(s), and your beauty expectations are discussed. All very important things ;) It is essential for us to get to know your personal style and beauty preferences.

During this appointment we work to develop a relationship where everyone, especially you, can be honest. This enables us to do our best to help you to achieve your ideal look within realisitic expectations of your hair type/skin type, but also a look that you love.

We generally schedule preview appointments during the week. Weekend availability is limited to team member discretion and schedule; Sunday previews are not available. We require a minimum of 90 minutes per service for your preview appointment, this way we can ensure the end look is perfected and questions and/or concerns can be addressed.

Some brides prefer to do their preview appointment as soon as possible so they can get started on their wedding to do list :) Our general recommendation 3-4 months out and no less than 2 months prior to your wedding date as the weeks leading up to your wedding can be jam packed with other meetings and important commitments.

In the event you are reserving our beauty services less than 2 months prior to your big day, we do ask for flexibility in scheduling your preview appointment. In addition, the retainer due to book is $450 ($350 with a $100 an expedited reservation fee).

We also ask that you have a solid head count and timeline in place as well.

For larger bridal parties, we may recommend adding an additional beauty professional to keep your morning running smoothly and ensure everyone is ready on time. ✨

Each Bridal Brigade team member has a $750 booking minimum. If your service count or getting-ready timeline requires an additional team member, your booking must meet the $750 minimum for that provider. If the services assigned to them do not reach the minimum, the difference will be added to your booking.

For parties with 10 or more services of the same type (10+ hair or 10+ makeup), we’ll include an additional team member without requiring an additional provider minimum to help keep your beauty timeline comfortable and efficient.

Additional travel and parking fees may apply for each team member.

The invoice for the payment for all services to be rendered is due 30 days prior to your wedding date. If your bridal party members are paying for their own services, we recommend you make arrangements in advance to have them reimburse you prior to this date.

We allot 60 minutes for bridal services and 45 minutes for bridal party makeup and hair services. This time frame depends on complexity of the end look desired. Some services may take less than that.

We require a minimum of 5 hours, to perform our beauty services, unless otherwise agreed upon. This time frame allows us to accommodate up to 8 services with one artist or stylist.

While we loveeee dolling up our brides and bridal parties, we all also love spending time with our families. If booking a holiday weekend, a $100 member fee will be added to your invoice.

Just a quick clarification on the fees!

Our reservation fee is a separate, non-refundable fee that covers the administrative time that goes into setting up your file, communication, scheduling, contract prep, and overall project management. Because this work begins as soon as you book, this fee is not applied toward your wedding package.

Your retainer, on the other hand, is what officially secures your date on our calendar. The retainer is applied toward your final package balance and ensures that your wedding day is reserved exclusively for you.

So in short:

• Reservation Fee = covers admin & planning time (non-refundable, not applied to package)

• Retainer = holds your date and is applied toward your package total
