Yes, absolutely. It’s important to check that you like the makeup look you’ve chosen ahead of your big day so you have time to experiment with other styles if you don’t.

Start by eating well in the months leading up to your wedding: the better your diet, the clearer your skin. You may want to consider having intensive treatments like chemical peels and microdermabrasion, but plan carefully: you don’t want to trigger breakouts before your big day, nor do you want your skin to still be in recovery from whichever treatments you’ve chosen.

The night before your wedding, it’s recommended that you cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturise; and get a good night’s sleep. In the morning, cleanse again, apply a brightening serum (vitamin C serums are great) to even your skin tone, then apply some moisturiser with SPF to keep it hydrated and protected.

A trial is highly recommended. It allows you and your makeup artist to refine the look, test products on your skin type, ensure the style matches your dress and venue, and iron out any adjustments before the wedding day.

Bridal makeup typically takes 60–90 minutes for the bride alone. If you have a bridal party, allow approximately 30–60 minutes per person. Your makeup artist will help you plan a realistic schedule for the morning.

Bridal makeup typically costs between £40 and £75 for the wedding day application, with trials similarly priced. Package rates for bridal parties are often available. Fresha shows upfront pricing before you book.
