Questions
Good things to know
The questions brides ask me first, answered here so you can keep planning without waiting on an email back.
What brides ask first
Do you travel? How far?
Yes. For wedding makeup, I travel from Athens, Tennessee across East Tennessee, including Knoxville, Maryville, Chattanooga, Cleveland, and Sevierville. Travel is $0.65 per mile from Athens, rounded to the nearest dollar, with a $30 minimum. Mobile spray tans are $15 within a 10 mile radius of my studio, plus $0.50 per mile beyond.
What's your minimum to book a wedding date?
Bride plus two other services. That can be bridesmaids, the mother of the bride, or anyone else getting ready with you the morning of.
How far in advance should I book?
Most brides reach out 6 to 12 months ahead. If your date is closer, send an inquiry anyway and I will let you know what is available.
Do you do trials? What is involved?
Yes. Trials run in my Athens studio and take about an hour and a half. We talk through your inspiration, try the look you have in mind, and adjust together until it feels right. A trial is $120 and is separate from your wedding day service.
How long does a spray tan last? When should I get one for my wedding?
A custom spray tan typically lasts 7 to 10 days with good aftercare. For a wedding, plan your spray 2 to 3 days before the event so the color settles into its true tone.
What do I wear for a spray tan? Do I shower right after?
Wear loose, dark clothing and skip lotion, deodorant, and makeup on the day of. You do not shower right away. Depending on the formula, you will rinse after 1 to 4 hours (rapid or hydration) or after 8 to 10 hours overnight (custom).
