bride+party packages
Packages are optional and only pertain to your wedding when the number of services match the packages, otherwise see the Individual Service Pricing section below
ULTIMATE BRIDAL PACKAGE : 3000
Hair and makeup for you, your wedding party, mothers, grandmothers, aunts etc. 20 service max & no time constraints. Junior maids and children requiring only light hair / makeup count as 1/2. 1 makeup application = 1 service. 1 hairstyle = 1 service. 1 blowout = 1 service.
ESSENTIALS PACKAGE : 1350
1 makeup application = 1 service. 1 hairstyle = 1 service. 1 blowout = 1 service.
Up to 9 services & no time constraints. Junior maids and children requiring only light hair / makeup count as 1/2.
BRIDE-ONLY PACKAGE : 699
Hair and makeup does not include touchups. In order for Brie to work with no minimums on a weekend during wedding season, the bride must be somewhat flexible on what time her services take place, Brie will most likely accept another booking that day but will make sure both are taken care of in time for their photos.
A la cartE Pricing
HEADCOUNT is # of services requested. Services cannot be taken away from the quoted job, they can only be added. So it's best to get a headcount and collect the payments (if applicable) from the committed party members, friends and family. Brie will not hire a quality assisting artist and quote them a certain number of services without a firm headcount, and the good artists get booked up quickly. Regardless if someone drops out, Brie is still bound to pay the artists what was promised to them. Your understanding is greatly appreciated.
TIMELINES are about 5 hours on average. Assisting artists are added per # of services to keep the timeline from exceeding 6 hours. Clip in extensions, blowouts, or anything that would require extra time automatically bumps a hairstyle to "technical."
What's a STANDARD service and what is TECHNICAL? In order to determine the difficulty level and time it takes to conduct a service, photos should be sent to Brie. It is very important to have this figured out in advance, since this can vary the timeline by a great deal.

fine print
All payment methods are accepted, subject to processing fees. To avoid fees, use cash, checks and venmo. All payments are to be made prior to the date of services. Deposits are due early in the process before hours of correspondence can be accumulated.
The full wedding day balance is due 2 weeks prior to the wedding and cannot be refunded. Our goal is to have all the business sorted out and loose ends tied up, for a stress free wedding day. Decades of wedding experience has proved this works out best for all involved and we appreciate your understanding.
