FAQ’s
My most common questions - answered for you! If you have been wondering it, chances its here!
-
To ensure I am giving the absolute best service to my clients - I limit my weddings to 15 a year. I do make some exceptions for weddings that are smaller and more intimate, and solo brides.
-
I typically cover East and Central London (Zone 1). At this time I do not do destination weddings.

Travel is covered in the initial investment, unless based outside on London or unless special travel arrangements need to be made.

Over 10 years now! I had humble beginnings at the MAC Counter, until I went fully freelance in 2017.

Absolutely! I love solo brides!

This is a great question, and I myself would have thought this before becoming a makeup artist. Quite simply, the admin fees and travel costs, are built into the bride’s price. This additional cost, covers things like my CRM system that takes care of your payments, my time spent processing the bookings and the additional admin that comes with a bridal booking. Bridesmaids and guests, are exactly the same price as my glam and go clients.
-
Absolutely. I am 100% confident working on all skin tones and it’s one of my huge values in my business, to be as inclusive as possible. Take a look at my portfolio to see all the gorgeous skin tones I have been lucky to work on.

I do have to charge non refundable deposits to ensure my income is protected but also, to ensure your day is protected in my diary! Before booking, I would ensure we are absolutely a right fit and you are clear on what style makeup you want.

This depends on what time the party needs to be ready by - but usually I have capacity for 6 total. If you have a larger bridal party, don’t worry - I have a wonderful army of assistants I can bring!

Trust me, every bride who has asked if we can skip the trial has always said how valuable it was in the end. Just check out my reviews! A few have even said it! The trial is a crucial part of the service for both of us. It ensures we vibe together, solidifies the look and raises both our confidences to execute it!

Absolutely! Mio is always at my home and can be locked away, or free to roam depending on your preference!

As a business owner, I am conscious of my footprint and impact on the world we live in. Right now, I am taking steps towards a cruelty free kit, which I aim to be fully CF by 2025. To limit my waste consumption, I will be using up the products I have already invested in first.
One of my values, is to try and be as zero waste as possible. Contracts are not printed, but digitally signed, and I have completely stopped my use of makeup wipes, since 2020. I will continue to make changes in my business that support the environment as much as possible.
