Question 1

Why should I hire you as my Makeup Artist?

Accepted Answer

Your wedding day makeup should be more than just beautiful—it should be an experience.
With over a decade of bridal expertise, I don’t just enhance features, I elevate confidence.
When you choose Dangerously Beautiful by Amanda Kimberly, you’re selecting an artist
who listens, understands, and delivers a luxury experience that reflects the very best
version of you.

Question 2

When and how can I book your bridal services?

Accepted Answer

As long as I have availability, securing your date is simple:

Step 1: Review the investment details in the bridal beauty section to ensure it aligns with your vision.
Step 2: Check my availability via the online calendar.
Step 3: Submit a bridal inquiry.
Step 4: Once your inquiry is submitted, I will send you an email to confirm you are ready for the next steps in the booking process. Once confirmed, you’ll receive a custom bridal guide, followed by information to submit your $100 non-refundable retainer, complete your bridal contract, and a booking link to add your date.
Step 5: Once all are received, your date will be confirmed and you’ll receive a formal
booking confirmation.

I will be with you every step of the way to ensure your experience is seamless and elevated.

Question 3

What is the retainer amount and how do I submit it?

Accepted Answer

A $100 non-refundable retainer is required to reserve your date. Payment can be submitted
via Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, or mailed check.

Question 4

Is the retainer applied toward my balance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The $100 retainer will be subtracted from your final wedding day invoice.

Question 5

Can I modify the number of services after booking?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Your invoice remains flexible until 30 days prior to your event.

Question 6

Do you offer both traditional and airbrush makeup?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Both traditional and airbrush foundation options are available for the bride and all
members of the bridal party.

Question 7

How far in advance should I book?

Accepted Answer

Due to high demand, dates are typically booked 12–18 months in advance. Makeup, hair,
and photography are the core trio of wedding visuals—if you don’t love how you look, you
won’t love your photos. Prioritize your glam team early and choose artists who make you
feel your absolute best.

Question 8

Is there a minimum to book?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A minimum of 5 services (excluding flower girls) or $700 is required to reserve a
wedding date, not including travel or accommodation fees.

Question 9

Can you accommodate larger bridal parties?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I regularly work with bridal parties of all sizes. For groups of 8 or more, an assistant or additional
artist will be required for efficiency and timing.
- A second artist is $100 for 8+ guests.
- If an assistant/ second artist is requested or recommended for fewer than 8 guests due to time
constraints, the rate is $150.

During your bridal preview, we'll review your timeline in detail to determine what's necessary based on your party size and desired finish time. As a bride, you also have the option to outsource a second artist to avoid additional fees if preferred. (The minimum service requirement would still apply).

If you'd like to get ahead of this information prior to your preview, let's hop on a quick call and chat through your timeline, vision, and what might work best.
  
Please reach out if you’re unsure whether a second artist is necessary—I’ll guide you
through what’s best for your timeline.

Question 10

If we can’t access our bridal suite early, can we start in one location and move to another?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I can accommodate a location change if needed. Please note that setup and breakdown
typically take 30 minutes each. If a second location is added, it will require:
- 1 additional hour added to your timeline (30 min setup + 30 min breakdown)
- Travel time between locations
- An additional $100 setup/breakdown fee
- Mileage/travel fees based on the added distance
Let’s talk through your timeline in advance to keep everything smooth and stress-free.
