Do we schedule a timeline for the wedding day?
We WILL determine a start time and completion deadline, but we DO NOT create a time slotted timeline/schedule for each client. Why? Some clients may take 20 minutes, some may take 45. Our policy is that a client needs to be in the Stylist/Artist’s chair at all times. Artists/Stylists will leave once services are completed.
Do you offer Blowouts or day of Lash Clusters?
Unfortunately we do NOT offer these services.
How do you choose what Stylist/Artist will I be working with?
We have a team of over 40 talented and trusted Stylists/Artists that are assigned to you according to schedule, your desired look and location.

Do you offer Individual or Bride Only services?
YES! Please contact us for a custom quote!
Can you accommodate large bridal parties?
Yes. I am fortunate to work alongside a very talented team of Stylists/Artists, to accommodate any size request. My team is curated by me, based on their professionalism, artistry and (most importantly) genuine nature.
1 Stylist/Artist is assigned per 6 services. If it is necessary to book 2 or more Stylists/Artists in order to complete your bridal party within the timeframe allowed, there is an additional Stylist/Artist fee of $100 for each extra Stylist/Artist booked beyond the initial Stylist/Artist.
Do you offer airbrush or traditional makeup applications and what is the difference?
We offer both! Essentially airbrush and traditional makeup is a way of application. Airbrush makeup typically using an air compressor to push foundation through the airbrush gun. Traditional makeup uses a variety of formulas from cream, to liquid to gel. In both cases, the application can be very sheer or build up to fuller coverage. For a more in depth explanation of the difference between airbrush and traditional makeup application, please click HERE.
What Makeup & Hair products do you use?
All of the makeup and hair products used are professional brands that were designed to give long-lasting results and photograph beautifully. Our team carries a wide range of products from different brands to accommodate all skin and hair types.
Would the same Artist/Stylist be doing both my Trial & Wedding Day Hair/Makeup?
Yes! Unless there is an unexpected emergency, the talented Artist/Stylist that is paired with you for your event will personally complete that service at your trial.
Do you offer on-location services or do you have a location where we can get ready?
Your choice! Wedding day services are typically done on-site at the venue you plan to get ready at. If you're looking for a place to get ready, we have a beautiful studio in Hartland, WI available for rent. Please reach out to inquire about availability.
What time do we need to begin on the day of the event?
This is determined based on what time you need to be ready by. Each Stylist/Artist works at their own pace and Tia is sure to schedule your timeline accordingly. We reserve additional time for Brides to secure hair accessories or veils and also to account for any possible delays or distractions the Bride may encounter on her big day. If your getting ready location has start time restrictions please let us know that right away so we can schedule accordingly.
When is my final payment due?
The final balance is due 2 weeks (14 days) prior to your event date.
When should I book my Consultation and Trial?
Due to the fact that June though September are our industry’s busiest months, we request that all trials be scheduled between the months of November-May. We understand that this may not be possible for some brides. We will gladly make an exception for brides that are out of state or brides that book our services a few months prior to their wedding date.
It is completely your choice how far in advance you would like to book your trial! I personally like to book Consultations and Trials 3-6 months prior to the big day. So that it's not too close to the wedding date, that it could feel last minute, and not too far before the wedding as hair and skin conditions could change drastically during that time. Trials are held at the Stylist/Artist’s Home, Office or Salon, unless otherwise agreed upon. Trials are typically held during the days, Monday-Thursday. A weekend premium rate of $25 will be added per service for trials conducted on Friday- Sunday. Please understand, many weekends are unavailable for trials due to other wedding bookings. We will do our best to accommodate your ideal time. If you would like an artist to travel to you, a travel fee of $1.00 per mile will apply from the artists location.
Do I need a bridal Consultation and Trial, and how should I best prepare for it?
I would always recommend a bridal consultation and Trial. It not only allows you to preview what you are envisioning for your bridal look, but also allows you to meet and connect with your Stylist/Artist. For a more in depth explanation of the importance of a bridal Consultation and Trial and how you should prepare for it, please click HERE. Please keep in mind our Stylists/Artists host trials at their personal Studios, Homes or Salons. If you would like to have them travel to you, travel fees will apply.
Should I get Hair Extensions? If so, where can I get them?
Hair Extensions are wonderful to add volume and/or length to your hair. I would be happy to consult with you to help to determine if the hairstyle you choose would benefit from the use of hair extensions. We can then order them for you! The cost for the extensions start at $140. Click HERE for more information.
All extensions must be 100% Human hair. There is an additional $25 cost to place, secure and style all clip-in and halo hair extensions at each appointment. We do NOT style synthetic hair pieces.
