You’ve started searching for your wedding vendors, and you’ve quickly realized that it's not all fun and games! These are super emotional, important decisions and there are SO many options. We can make it one step easier for you by checking off both your hair and makeup for your wedding day! Here are four reasons why you should hire a team instead of individual artists.

Less Fees

Your vendors all need to build in fees like admin and travel into the pricing that they charge you. And, most bridal beauty professionals have minimums for wedding days. With hiring your hair and makeup artists from the same team, that condenses the admin time needed so you will be paying one, combined fee instead of two separate ones. Same with travel - you will reach those minimums quicker and much easier when working with a team than with individual artists.

Saves You Time in Wedding Planning

Wedding planning takes TIME, and you are probably starting to realize this! Who wants to add ANOTHER vendor that they have to communicate with. All of the emails and communication really start to add up. With a team, you’ll only need to take to one person instead of two, and you’ll be able to do your trial at the same time too! Often times, bridal beauty professionals require a weekday for your trial because they are booked with weddings on the weekend. If this means you have to take off work, having your hair and makeup trial at the same time will only make you miss work once.

The Hairstylists and Makeup Artists Already Know How To Work Together

If you hire individual artists, they’ll need to chat about a game plan once they arrive on the wedding day. If both are coming from the same team, they’ll already have a game plan going into the morning and have already worked together before. This results in a much smoother wedding morning and you won’t have to worry about any miscommunication. Every artist has their own preferences and quirks, and with individual artists, they may not know how to work with those coming from someone they don’t know.

Better Back Up Options in the Case of an Emergency

We hate to talk about the “what ifs” - but there always needs to be a plan B for your wedding day! With a team, they’ve already spoken to each other ahead of time with a game plan if something goes wrong. When individual artists show up on the wedding day, they haven’t spoken to each other about your wedding day at all yet and will likely not put together a plan B before getting started on services.

Your vendors put so much prep into your wedding before the actual day comes, but at the end of it all they are still coming from their own perspectives and experiences. Hiring a hair and makeup team for your Bay Area wedding takes out just one piece of uncertainty, that will save you so much stress when things start adding up.
