Both. We offer on-location service PAN India, and also work with brides virtually for consultations and shade matching before the artist travels to you. Travel charges depend on distance and are quoted upfront, never added as a surprise later.

HD makeup uses finely milled powders and creams that photograph smoothly under high-resolution cameras and flash.

A 25% advance secures your date on our calendar. The balance is due closer to the event, with the exact schedule confirmed in writing when you book.

Look for a trial included in the package, transparent pricing with no last-minute add-ons, real client photos rather than only filtered edits, and an artist who asks about your skin, outfit and functions before recommending a look. A short consultation before you book tells you a lot.

Yes. A trial is the clearest way to confirm how a look photographs on your skin, holds up under different lighting, and works with your hairstyle and outfit before the wedding day itself, with room to request changes beforehand. Read what to expect at a trial.

With HD or airbrush technique, proper skin preparation and the touch-up kit included in every bridal package, makeup is built to last a full wedding day of roughly 10 to 14 hours.

It depends on the tier. Classic uses L'Oréal Paris, PAC Cosmetics and Kryolan; Luxury adds MAC, Huda Beauty and Estée Lauder; Royal Signature uses Chanel, Dior, Charlotte Tilbury and Giorgio Armani Beauty. Full product lists are on the pricing page for each tier.
