Hair and Makeup -- In a Salon or On-site??

I would have them come to the hotel suite, that's what we are doing. It will be easier on you and your girls to have the artist travel to you.

They're coming to me. Definitely more comfortable than shuffling around a salon.

They are coming to me as well. We have a bridal suite. It will be much easier than having to travel to a salon.

Our HMUAs will be coming to us and I would always choose that if it's an option. It's much less comfortable in the salon and you have to worry about transporting everyone.

I'm paying extra for them to come to me. Worth every cent.

I would have them come to you! Definitely more comfortable!

We went to ours. It was just a room with mirrors set up for each artist. I would have preferred them come to us but I didn't have enough services booked for my chosen artists - they required 5 each. It really wasn't a big deal, and sometimes going to them will save money. It's definitely not one of the things I look back on and wish I would have done differently.

In my opinion, on site is easier for your bridal party, and any others that are joining you for hair and makeup. My bridesmaids are all staying with me overnight and we will wake up and be together and the hairdressers and makeup artists will come to us at the condo. Whatever you choose will be fine!

I chose to go to the salon. Whenever I have been in a wedding, I have loved being in the salon and having the full experience there! I would feel a bit cramped in a hotel suite and not everyone can get their hair/makeup done at the same time with limited space.

I prefer hotel/bridal suite. It's more relaxed and you can have music & snacks & drinks.

Were doing it at the place we’re staying!! I didn’t want to waste time traveling or risk messing it up!

Better they come to you. Less stressful you can all do your own thing to while others are being worked on.

We are going to the salon directly. Me and my girls aren’t big makeup people so I can’t justify them spending over $100 for minimal makeup plus similar for hair for someone to do it at the venue.

I'd recommend getting them to come to your hotel suite! I was a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding and all the people getting their hair done (including the bride), had to go to the salon. The stylists were running behind, and the salon was 30 minutes away from the venue so it put us all way behind. I'm having my hair & makeup artist come to our venue.

Check and see what distance they require a travel fee for! My hair & makeup artist doesn't require a travel fee if the venue is within 30 minutes of her salon so I don't have to pay for her to come to us since it's only 20 minutes away.

Have them come to you. Your wedding your day you’re going to be sooo stressed out you don’t need to be traveling anywhere

I'm the only one getting my hair done, so I was originally going to the salon. However, my stylist dosen't charge extra to travel to my venue, and to have her come to me means I can wear a robe, instead of a button shirt, and I don't have to drive. My hair can be the very last thing before the dress goes on. Definitely worth it.

The HMUA team will be coming to my parents house (where we'll be getting ready). I don't want to be in the salon.

I’m having the artist come to the venue! They only charge an extra $40 to travel and figured it’s easier than traveling around everywhere lol

Base it off of price. If its more expensive to have them come to you then go to them as long as you have the time to do so.

I myself am having everyone come to me but I told my girls they dont need to partake in them coming if they want to spend less money going elsewhere they are more than welcome to.

I'd say hotel suite- I did that and it went fine. Our venue had a bridal suite but we couldnt go in before a certain time so we just stuck to the hotel suite!
