Tell me more about Bridal Trials
Getting married is a day you dream of and you may HAVE started planning in your head way before you’re even engaged! One of the things you may have planned in your head or pinned on that Pinterest mood board is what you're going to look like on your big day. when you come to French avenue we can sit down and chat about your vision for your wedding and how you want to look on your day. we will talk About what would suit your hair and if you want to have hair extenSions to add volume or length to achieve your style. if you have any accessories or a veil already, bring them along so we can put everything together to finish the look. I can recommend ideas for hair accessories if you're unsure and I will always have a veil if you still haven’t decided if a veil is for you. at The end of the trial we will discuss timings of the day and how you would like the rest of the bridal party to have their hair. Trials don’t need to be booked at the time of booking your big day. I recommend having your trial a couple of months prior to the wedding And to allow 1.5 hours. Trials are charged on the day of the trial. Sometimes the Mother of the bride or Bridesmaids like to have a trial as well and i would love to get to know them - just let me know if they would like to join when you book your trial.
