FAQ
Here are some commonly asked questions. I hope this helps, but please feel free to contact me with any questions that may arise in the booking process.
How do I book RD Bridal Artistry for makeup?
-
Fill out the inquiry form (located at the bottom of the Home and Pricing pages) with as many details about your wedding or event as possible.
-
Sit back and relax—I’ll be in touch to guide you through the next steps!
What's your travel fee?
Travel fees are based on roundtrip hours from my home studio in Cape Coral, FL. Bridal packages include 1hr roundtrip — beyond that, $100/hr so I arrive on-time and fully focused on YOUR flawless morning.
Is a deposit required?
Yes. To officially reserve your appointment, both a non-refundable retainer and a signed contract are required. Appointments are secured only once these steps are completed.
What will my payment schedule look like?
-
Booking retainer: 15% of the total invoice is due at booking to secure your wedding date (non-refundable, first-come, first-served).
-
Bridal preview: $175, due at your trial appointment.
-
Final balance: Remaining balance is due 5 days before the wedding day.
Is there a cancellation policy?
My cancellation policy is designed to protect both your time and mine, and to ensure a smooth booking process:
-
Personal bookings: 48 hours’ notice required.
-
Weddings: 90 days’ notice required. A credit card authorization form must also be completed for wedding bookings.
Do I need a bridal makeup trial?
Bridal previews aren’t required, but they are highly recommended. During the trial, we’ll:
-
Discuss your bridal vision in detail
-
Test out your dream makeup look
-
Take photos and adjust as needed
-
Get comfortable working together before the big day
-
Bridal previews are reserved for booked brides.
A trial helps eliminate stress and ensures you feel confident walking down the aisle.
How do I reserve my wedding date? Can I schedule a trial before booking?
I work on a first-come, first-served basis. A wedding date is only secured once a non-refundable retainer and signed contract are received.
Please note: scheduling a trial does not hold your wedding date.
I completely understand how important it is to choose the right artist. That’s why I provide full transparency by showcasing my unedited work on my Instagram and website (@rdbridalartistry), so you can feel confident in your decision.
