This elopement hair and makeup package covers both bridal hair and bridal makeup on your wedding day, with an artist you choose in advance. It is built for elopements and small weddings where the schedule is short and simple, and it comes from a Santa Rosa salon with more than 20 years in business that travels across Wine Country.
The package skips the trial run, which keeps the cost and the number of appointments low for hosts planning a quick or intimate ceremony. Because you select your artist ahead of time, you can share photos of the look you want, your outfit and your hair type before the day, so the artist arrives with a clear plan.

Booking and payment
Reserving your date takes a $200 save-the-date payment, since the usual $75 booking fee is waived for this package, and that $200 is applied to your total. Cancelling contracted wedding services requires 60 days of notice, and save-the-date payments are non-refundable. On location, the team accepts cash, check or Venmo, and credit card payments carry a 3% fee.
Common questions
Is there a minimum on Saturdays?
From April through November, Saturday bookings carry a minimum of six services. If your party is smaller, ask the salon how it handles the minimum for your date, or consider booking on another day of the week. Your quote will show the services counted toward the minimum and the total for your party.
How early should we start?
The vendor describes a typical wedding timeline of about four hours, with roughly 30 to 45 minutes per person for the bridal party. Share your ceremony time and party size early so the team can set a start time with room for photos. Starts at 7:30 am or earlier carry an early start fee per stylist.
Can guests get ready with me?
Yes. Even for a small elopement, the salon offers hair and makeup for guests and family as add-on services, listed above with their published prices. Tell the team how many people will be getting ready and where, so the artist count, start time and travel fee can be set in your quote before you book.
