WEDDING MAKEUP - PRICE VS. QUALITY

If your mother didn't tell you, then let me tell you - you get what you pay for.

Skimping on makeup on your wedding day is never a good idea.  When the wedding is over, all that's left are your memories and the photos.  Yes, the photos.  And if your makeup is not on point with photography ready makeup,  you will not like your photos, which defeats the purpose of spending all that money on photos.

Sure, you can call Glam Squad or a similar service and get a person that applies makeup for $75. But you need to ask yourself, what kind of person works for $40 because that's what the makeup person gets after Glam Squad takes their cut.  I mean, the makeup person has to buy makeup, supplies, skincare etc....so what kind of person would work for $40?  I will tell you.  A person with no experience.  Do you really want someone working on you and your bridal party with no experience?  Maybe it will work out and maybe it won't.  Do you want to take that chance on your wedding day?

I  tell my brides that choosing a bridal makeup artist is like choosing a plastic surgeon - don't look for bargains.  If you are on a budget, cut the food, the flowers or the shoes, but never skimp on your face.
