Questions about mother, godmother, bridesmaids and guests
Who pays for the family's and bridesmaids' hair and makeup?
It is a very personal decision, and it is yours. Sometimes you wish to treat your family and friends, sometimes a relative gives it to you as a gift, and sometimes each person covers their own. What is recommended is to collect the total for all the services before the team arrives, by bank transfer or in cash, so a single person handles the payment and the morning runs without interruptions.
When to book hair and makeup for bridesmaids only?
The hair and makeup team can be booked just for the bridesmaids, and it is quite common. It usually happens when you have already arranged your own hair and makeup and later decide to find someone to prepare your bridesmaids as well.
Do bridesmaids usually get their hair and makeup done?
It depends on whether they want to get ready with you, and it is a much requested service. The morning is easier and more fun, you feel surrounded by your bridal party and your family, and the team gets them ready while you are getting ready yourself.
Can I book a hair and makeup artist as a wedding guest?
Yes, any guest can book it. If she is not getting ready in the bride's room, part of the team goes to her hotel room to get her ready there.
What hairstyles do flower girls wear at a wedding?
Usually a half-up style with curls or waves, and an updo for the youngest. Flower girls have their hair done by the bride's team, quoted separately.
How are the mother of the bride and the godmother prepared?
The bride's mother and the godmother play a very special role on the day, so in order of priority they usually come very close to the bride. Their skin, usually mature, receives slightly more careful preparation than the other guests'. As they often go through the morning with a lot of nerves, sometimes even more than the bride, the aim is for them to relax during the preparation, enjoy the moment and feel part of the spotlight too.

Makeup and hair are never planned apart: they are built together so the same face holds from the ceremony to the last dance.
Frequently asked questions about wedding hair and makeup
What does the wedding hair and makeup package include?
The service includes the trial and advice throughout the year, right up to the wedding day. For makeup, it also includes a touch-up kit in the shades chosen at the trial, handed to you on the wedding day: your lip colour, blush, setting powder, blotting papers, a mirror and a small pouch to take your makeup off at the end of the night.
Which areas of Andalusia do you travel to for weddings?
Weddings are covered throughout Andalusia, from a base in Fuengirola. Up to an hour and a half by car, travel is done on the day; between an hour and a half and two and a half hours, a night in the area is weighed, and further away it is always part of the plan, included in the quote.
Can you do hair and makeup for my mum and the bridal party?
The service can include the people closest to you. The most common arrangement is you plus two companions: usually your mother or the person closest to you, and often a sister or your best friend as well.
How much does wedding hair and makeup cost in Spain?
There is no single price, because every wedding has its own quote. The bridal rate includes the trial, the makeup touch-up kit and online advice. Depending on the wedding, it is joined by the people getting ready besides the bride, the travel fee, accommodation and meals when the wedding is far away, and a small surcharge for a very early start. Every price is in the dossier, which you receive when you ask about your date, through the contact form or any other channel, along with answers to all your questions.
