Bride & Wedding
FAQ
How Early Should I Book My Wedding Hairstyling And Makeup Services?
I recommend securing your day when you book in your wedding photographer or start dress shopping. I always encourage my Brides’ to make the most of the Bridal Preview, by using it for engagement photos or dress try-ons to bring the look together! Timewise, it’s best for RBM Beauty Brides to secure their date 8-12 months out!

How Do I Book With You?
I require a retainer to book all of my Glam services (RBM Beauty Booking Policies). To book RBM Beauty for your Wedding Day, I require a retainer and signed contract.
When Should I Book My Bridal Preview/Trial?
I often recommend booking your Bridal Preview when you can make the best use of it; for a bridal shower or similar celebration!
A Note: If you are solely booking a trial, and have not yet secure your wedding day, my best suggestion is to trial within 1-2 weeks of deciding to move forward with RBM Beauty. Holds are not offered on event dates without the proper retainer and contracts required.

A Trial is booked within 2 weeks of deciding to move forward with me. Your wedding date is not yet secured.
A Preview is booked whenever you prefer prior to wedding date, while your wedding date is fully booked and secured.
How Long Does The Bridal Preview/Trial Take?
The trial takes 2-4hrs depending on the services desired.

Please note though that booking your trial only does not put a hold on your wedding day.
