Makeup Artist Etiquette

I don't think you have to. Its just a nice gesture if you do. (Most bridesmaids don't even get theirs paid for by the bride. Unless its required by the bride) Word it this way: "Im hiring a makeup artist to come do our makeup. She charges XXX if you are interested in having yours done. Think about it, and if you'd like her to do yours too, let me know and I'll book a slot on your behalf" or something like that.

You don't have to. You can tell them that they're more than willing to use her services, too, the day of and tell them how much it costs.

Oh that's good to know! Thanks! I already offered my bridesmaids, mainly because I'd feel awkward being the only one getting mine done haha. I found an artist who will do the 4 of us and my trial included for $300 which seems to be super reasonable. But I am on a budget and don't want to do the whole guest list haha thanks again!

I asked around to my bridesmaids if they would like to get their hair/makeup done. That way I can book for the right amount of people and they can split the charges/pay for themselves.

It's a nice touch but not necessary.

I gave my BM's the choice if they wanted it done professionally or not. My MUA and hair stylist will be coming to my house the day of, I told them how much the services would cost and to let me know if they are interested, I would book them in.

If a bride wants their bridal party to all have professional services done, then they should offer to pay.

Its a nice gesture, to at least offer! My mom had her makeup professionally done for our wedding, but my MIL did her own.
