Got a question? You're not the only one! See answers to the most common questions below.

Why invest in a professional makeup artist for your wedding day?

Whether you are having a grand event or small intimate setting, all eyes will be on you. Your family and friends are coming to see you on your special day, and everyone will want their picture taken with you. Your wedding photos are forever, you deserve to treat yourself on your day.

What is the benefit of having a professional artist come to you?

Having a professional come to you is much more personal than going to a busy salon and trying to coordinate everyone. This will reduce anxiety and stress having to travel back and forth. Let the makeup artist come to you.

Do you have a minimum required number?

Of course not! Rebecca Marie Makeup offers services to small and large sized bridal parties.

Do you offer hair services?

Rebecca Marie focuses on professional makeup services. From experience in the bridal industry, it is important to find two professionals, one for makeup and one for hair on your special day. Having two artists will allow each professional to focus on each client without feeling rushed to provide exceptional service. Rebecca Marie would be happy to refer amazing stylists.

Should I book a pre-wedding trial?

A trial is not required, but is highly recommended. A trial is a great opportunity to meet with your makeup artist, have a consultation and walk you through the wedding day details. During the trial we go over your skin type, review any skin concerns, discuss the look you want to achieve, and then create a trial run of that look.

What should I expect during a pre-wedding trial?

The trial typically takes 90 minutes. Please arrive with a freshly cleansed and lightly moisturized face. Gently brushing your lips with a soft toothbrush or disposable mascara wand and applying a moisturizing lip balm will allow for smoother lip application. Bringing a few inspiration pictures of the look you would like is always welcome. If you do not have anything particular in mind and are open to do what we feel would look best, that works too!

What products do you use?

Rebecca Marie is continuously researching and testing the latest professional products. Some brands include Smashbox, Tarte, Stila, Lise Watier, Benefit, PUR, Urban Decay, Dermablend, and more. Keeping tools and products properly sanitized is of utmost importance, including alcohol, brush cleaner and disposable applicators.

I don’t wear a lot of makeup. Will I look like I’m wearing too much?

Absolutely not! Rebecca Marie Makeup specializes in fresh, flawless makeup that emphasizes your beautiful features, so you still feel like you.

I have sensitive skin, will your makeup cause a reaction?

Many of the products Rebecca Marie Makeup uses are noncomedogenic and hypoallergenic, therefore unlikely to clog your pores or irritate your skin. If you have an ingredient or product concern, please let us know when you schedule your appointment.

Should I wear false eyelashes on my wedding day?

Lashes do complete the eye look. However, if you have never tried them before, it is recommended that you try them during the trial. We provide a variety of lash options that you will be sure to find a pair that you will fall in love with.

How much time should each person take on the wedding day?

We understand the importance of the wedding morning to run as smoothly as possible. Some clients take longer than others. If you have a shorter time frame to work with, let us know and we can offer the option to bring an assistant.

How does the morning of the wedding day go?

It is helpful to have a table space available, preferable near a large window with natural light.
From experience, we recommend the brides services to be scheduled somewhere that falls in the middle to second last to ensure there is plenty of time to relax, eat, and get dressed.
