A member of our team will contact you to arrange the date and time of your trial, this will be arranged for approximately six-eight weeks prior to your wedding day. The 30% deposit paid covers your trial and is non refundable should you decide not to use our services for your wedding day.

Trials usually take around 3 – 4 hours depending on the size of the bridal party. We request that no more than two people observe during a trial unless they are having a trial during the same sitting.

Safety

Small children and animals must be supervised during the trial and actual day; this is due to chemicals and products being used that could cause irritation or danger, as well as making trials and wedding days almost impossible to carry out in a calm and comfortable environment.

No responsibility will be taken by us should a small child or animal get hurt.

Cancellations by you

Cancellations after your trial has taken place will result in the loss of your deposit. If you wish to cancel your booking once your trial has taken place; no refund will be given.

Cancellations by Blushing Bride

In the event that a member of Blushing Bride is unable to attend your trial due to illness or a personal emergency, your trial will be reschedule to a suitable time for you and your party.

In the event that a member of Blushing Bride is unable to attend your wedding day due to illness or personal emergency, we will try to find a replacement hair or make-up designer to attend that we highly recommend. If we are unable to find cover we will refund any payments already made by you.

We always allow an extra 30 minutes in case of traffic, breakdowns or road closures. We will contact you immediately to inform you of our situation. Should circumstances such as these arise we cannot guarantee being to you on time or if at all. These will be classified as out of our control.

Please note should your bridal party cause distress to any member of Blushing Bride at the time of your trial or wedding day we reserve the right to cancel your booking without refund.

Date changes

If your circumstances change and you wish to change the date of your wedding, we require a minimum of eight weeks notice. The request must be made in writing from you. We cannot guarantee we will be able to move your booking if you change the date.
