We understand how unnerving it can be to book an artist before a trial, which is why we share our portfolio for you to review. This helps you determine if our style aligns with your vision for the big day. As a popular destination wedding location, we receive many inquiries, and this process ensures we're working with clients who truly value our work. In addition, our calendar is booked 1 -1.5 years out so we cannot hold dates based on trial sessions alone.

A preview session isn’t required but highly recommended! It’s a great opportunity to preview your look, so you can relax and enjoy being pampered on the big day. It also helps us determine if any adjustments are needed for timing. If you can’t book a trial, just email inspiration photos and a selfie, and we’ll guide you on any prep needed (e.g., clip-ins).

Airbrush makeup is an advanced application technique designed to give you luminous & long-lasting results while providing a lightweight and natural feel. It is customizable in the amount of coverage desired & skin tone. It’s also sweat & water resistant & will last up to 16 hours which is perfect for a day long event in the Charleston climate! We do not offer traditional makeup due to personal preference and because we cannot guarantee it lasting in the humid climate we so often have here in Charleston. If airbrush is not desired for your day of services you may feel free to bring your own foundation products, as we have no problem applying them along with our other products however, pricing will not differ. When referring to airbrush makeup, this is just the type of foundation applied & service includes full face makeup.

If you’ve never had Airbrush done before, please go to our insta @wildivorybeauty & check out our “Edu on Airbrush,” “FYI,” & “Skin is in” Highlights where we take you through the application process & why we love it!

We totally understand wanting a natural look, and that’s our specialty! However, to achieve a natural yet polished appearance on camera, a bit more makeup is needed than your everyday routine. About 30% of color fades in photos, and since these images are edited, slightly more makeup ensures a professionally done, natural look. We always want you to feel comfortable with your bridal style, and we’ll ask plenty of questions during your trial to align with your vision. We may also offer suggestions to help you look your best both in photos and in person, so trust in your vendors is key!
