Wedding makeup

Cierra, on February 11, 2025 at 8:57 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 3
Should I only focus on getting my makeup done for the wedding or should I also pay for my bridesmaids to get theirs done too. I'm already paying for their hair, I'm just not sure if I can afford to pay for 5 possibly 9 (bridesmaids/mom/grandmothers) other girls to get their makeup done too.

    Well hearing those numbers I would not since you have paid for their hair. I did the opposite I paid for make up and they will pay for their hair. Don't stress too much. I'm sure no one will look at you any differently. Good luck happy planning

    Same! I instead of a “day-of gift” I’m paying for makeup because everyone wants professional makeup anyway. They’re paying for hair or doing it themselves. You don’t have to pay for everything girl, they know what they signed up for.

    The way I handled hair and makeup was I asked my bridesmaids and the groomswoman if they were interested in having their makeup or hair professionally done. I left the decision up to them which services they wanted. They were then responsible for covering the cost. Some of them choose to have both services, others choose one, and one choose neither. If you are making it a requirement for them to have their hair and makeup professionally done then I'd say you are responsible for covering the costs, but if it's optional and they are choosing which service(s) they want then they can pay for it.
