Question 1

How do I make a booking or check your availability?

Accepted Answer

You can check availability or make a booking by emailing me at hello@katieleanne.com or by filling out the form on my contact page. Please note that Instagram DMs are not regularly monitored, so I might miss your message there.

Question 2

How far in advance should I book my wedding make-up?

Accepted Answer

It’s never too early to secure your date! I typically take bookings around 12–18 months in advance, and popular dates can go quickly, so booking early is always recommended.

Question 3

Why do I need to pay a deposit to secure my wedding date?

Accepted Answer

A deposit is required to secure your wedding date because once it’s paid, that day is reserved exclusively for you. Wedding mornings require careful planning, and I often receive multiple enquiries for the same date. Your deposit ensures that I block out the time, turn away any other bookings, and dedicate my schedule entirely to you. It also covers the administrative work involved in securing your booking and guarantees that everything is organised well in advance.

Question 4

Is there a minimum number of people required for a booking?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for Saturdays between June and August, I require a minimum booking of the bride plus three additional people.

Question 5

Do you offer touch-ups or stay-on services throughout the day?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Before I leave on your wedding day, I top up everyone’s make-up—lips, powder, and any final touches—usually just before your ceremony or before you meet your registrars. I can also stay for additional touch-ups after your ceremony if needed, with prices available on request.

Question 6

How many people can you do in one morning?

Accepted Answer

I can comfortably do make-up for up to five people in one morning, ensuring everyone receives the time, attention, and quality needed for a relaxed and seamless start to the day.

Question 7

What happens if I have a large bridal party or an early ceremony time?

Accepted Answer

In some cases, a second make-up artist may be needed to keep the morning running smoothly. This will be communicated to you in advance. You’re welcome to source another artist yourself, or I can bring someone with me. Anyone I bring will be someone I trust, have worked with before, is fully insured, and has a similar style to mine to ensure everything looks cohesive.

Question 8

Do you offer any discounts?

Accepted Answer

I understand that everyone has different priorities and budgets when planning a wedding. However, I don’t offer discounts, as it wouldn’t be fair to reduce prices for some brides and not others. My pricing reflects the quality of my work, the products I use, and the experience and care that goes into every booking.
