For on-location appointments we ask that you give 48-hour advance notice via email or phone. For in-studio appointments, we require a 24-hour notice. If notice is less than 24 hours, we charge a cancellation fee of half of your service total. For on-location contracts, all deposits and retainers are non-refundable and non-transferrable.

Airbrush foundation is a special foundation that is highly colorized & pigmented and is sprayed directly onto your skin using an airbrush pen and compressor. When done correctly, this is a beautiful application technique for special events where you need to look flawless. When applied correctly, it looks like a second skin that lasts for hours. Our makeup applications are typically a mix of traditional and airbrush makeup and are customized based upon your skin type.

Yes! Absolutely. We are experts at waterproof tattoo coverage. If you have a tattoo that needs to be covered, please email us a couple of photos of the tattoo you would like to cover and we can quote accordingly. Please note that proper tattoo coverage can take as much time as an entire face, sometimes longer if the area you want to be covered is large. Tattoo coverage starts at $100.

Yes, we charge a travel fee of $1.00 per mile/per artist with a $65.00 minimum. Due to the amount of equipment our team must bring, our clients are responsible for valet or any parking fees incurred. 

Yes. Friday - Sunday, our minimums for the Indianapolis metro area are 1,250 for Friday - Sunday (5 services per artist) and 450 for Monday - Thursday events. Our minimum for locations 35+ miles away from Blush & Bobby Pins is 1,250 (6 services per artist).

We do not require you to book our team for both hair and makeup services. You can book us for just makeup, just hair, or both. However, we prefer not to work with other vendors performing the same service if at all possible. We want your look to be cohesive and consistent with the rest of your bridal party for photographs.

The sooner you know your date, the better. We book 12-18 months out and dates go quickly. Once you have secured a venue and date, we advise that you should book hair and makeup right after. 

Yes, absolutely! Please Note: Friday, Saturday and Sunday appointments are usually not available due to our on-location wedding and event services. Let us know and we will do our best to work with your schedule.

Yes. All of our preview & in-studio appointments take place in our studio located at 600 E Carmel Drive, Suite 249 in Carmel, IN 46032. Preview Appointments are available Monday - Thursdays.

Hairstyle preview appointments are booked with enough time to try out two hairstyles. Our makeup preview appointments allow for one natural makeup look that can be built upon for a more dramatic look if you desire. Preview appointments are booked for 120 - 180 minutes.

The purpose of the preview appointment is for you, the bride, to meet your artist/stylist and work with them to find a look that you love for your wedding day. Each person's hair and skin are different. Your preview appointment gives us the opportunity to test out different products and techniques so that we can find out what will work best for you on your wedding day. Preview appointments are not required but always recommended.

Attendants and guests are scheduled 45 minutes per hair or makeup service. The bride's services are booked for about an hour each depending on the style requested. We do add additional time for sanitation in between guests. 

100% DRY hair is necessary the day-of. It is a good idea to double shampoo with a clarifying shampoo the week of the wedding. 

​

Come to your appointment with a clean and makeup-free face. Everyone should be regularly using hydrating skincare and gently exfoliating leading up to the wedding day. Makeup can enhance excessive dryness so hydration is key!

​

​

Our makeup is applied to be very water resistant. We use advanced techniques to keep your makeup longwearing, even in the heat and humidity. We do use products labeled as waterproof.

Upon signing the contract, we guarantee that our artist/stylist will be at your wedding. If there is an extreme emergency or act of god, we will make every effort to send another member of the Blush & Bobby Pins team to perform your services or another trusted professional. We keep detailed records of preview appointments, along with photographs to ensure that in an emergency your services can be completed just as they were at your preview.

You are solely responsible for the contracted amount due, because we are unable to contract each attendant for their services. Our past brides have had success collecting payments from attendants through Venmo prior to making their invoice payments.

All services are paid through your online invoice. We accept major credit cards and ACH payments from your bank account via our online portal.

Sanitation is our top priority and absolutely non-negotiable! You'll see our team use freshly cleaned brushes and new disposables on each member of the bridal party. We wash our hands, use sanitizer between clients, and keep our metal tools and surfaces wiped clean with alcohol. Brushes are never applied directly to wet product to avoid cross contamination. Your safety, as always, is our #1 priority.
