Get in Touch

No, it is not required, but it is highly recommended.  A makeup preview is an essential part of creating your personalized bridal look. This session allows us to collaborate, explore colors and techniques, and ensure your makeup enhances your beauty while reflecting your vision for the wedding day. It’s an opportunity to see exactly how you look will translate in photos and under different lighting, refine any details, and feel completely confident before your celebration. Every bride is unique, and the preview ensures that your wedding-day makeup is thoughtfully tailored, polished, and entirely “you.”

Do you require a bridal preview?

At Telluride Beauty Co., the products I choose are an extension of my artistry and attention to detail. I stay up-to-date with trends while relying on the best in the market—professional favorites like Makeup Forever, Nars, YSL, Chanel, Dior, and curated Sephora picks such as Westman Atelier, Hourglass, Patrick Ta, Makeup by Mario, and Charlotte Tilbury. Every product is selected for its longevity, flawless finish, and ability to keep you looking polished and radiant from your first look through the start of your reception.

What makeup brands do you use?

To ensure a comfortable and efficient setup, the bride should provide a large, stable workspace—ideally a desk or table—placed near natural light, such as a large window. I bring my own chair, so no need to provide seating for me. The area should have enough space for people to move around freely without disrupting the process. Please note that I do not work in bathrooms, so an alternate space is required for the makeup application.

What does the bride need to provide?

To help everything run smoothly, we ask that all bridal party members arrive with clean, makeup-free faces. It’s also helpful for everyone to take care of personal needs—using the restroom, grabbing water, or anything else—before sitting in the makeup chair. These small steps ensure we stay on schedule and create a calm, seamless experience for everyone.

How can I ensure my bridal party stays on schedule?

To secure your wedding date, a 50% retainer is required at the time of booking. The remaining balance is invoiced the week before your wedding and can be paid on or before your wedding day.  Payment methods: Venmo, Zelle, check, or cash.

How do you accept payment?

Even the most skilled makeup artistry is only as good as the hygiene behind it. I take sanitation and safety very seriously, ensuring every client experiences both beauty and care. Every client receives a fresh set of brushes, disinfected through a thorough three-step process, and disposable applicators are used when appropriate. My kit is fully sanitized after each use, and I am happy to wear a mask during your makeup application upon request. Meticulous attention to cleanliness is just as important as creating a flawless look—it’s part of the elevated, professional experience every bride deserves.

What are your safety protocols?

Yes, I am a licensed esthetician in the state of Colorado. In Colorado, an esthetician’s license is required to practice professionally as a makeup artist, and it ensures I meet all state-mandated sanitation and safety standards. Beyond compliance, I am also a working facialist trained with the French skincare line Biologique Recherche, which gives me specialized expertise in properly preparing your skin for makeup. This means your bridal look not only looks flawless but also wears beautifully throughout the day, starting with healthy, well-prepped skin.

Are you licensed?

I can comfortably accommodate the bride and up to five bridal party members on my own, ensuring each person receives careful attention and a flawless, personalized look. For larger parties, a second artist is recommended to keep the morning running smoothly and on schedule. This ensures everyone feels relaxed, supported, and beautifully prepared without any rush.

How many artists will I need for my bridal party?

Absolutely. Part of what sets my Full-Day Bridal Concierge service apart is that I stay with you throughout the morning and into the start of your reception, ready to handle any touch-ups or adjustments as needed. Whether it’s smudged makeup, happy tears, or a lipstick that needs refreshing, I ensure your look stays flawless in every moment and in every photo. This level of attention allows you to fully enjoy your celebration without ever thinking about your makeup—because every detail is thoughtfully managed so you look polished, radiant, and confident all day long.

Can you you do any touch-ups during the day?

Absolutely! I love doing makeup for engagement sessions, and especially rehearsal dinners.  —It’s such a special way to set the tone for your wedding weekend. Working with you in advance means we’ve already collaborated on your look during your preview and rehearsal dinner, so by the wedding day, your makeup routine feels seamless and effortless. It also gives you confidence in photos and ensures that every detail—from color choices to application—has been thoughtfully refined, so you can enjoy your celebration looking polished and radiant from start to finish.
