The question of price is one of the first that brides ask me, and rightly so. Bridal styling is an investment, and offers vary a lot. So that you can compare prices, I show you what they are made of.
Typical prices for bridal styling
For make-up and hair including a trial, prices in Düsseldorf, Cologne and NRW are usually between €350 and €900. Make-up only or hair only each costs about half. Travel costs and guest styling may be added.
My prices
- Bridal styling in the studio in Mettmann: €450, with a trial in the studio
- Wedding day at your place: €599, trial in the studio, on the wedding day I come to you or your hotel
- Luxury home service: €799, trial and wedding day at a place of your choice, touch-up up to two hours later
- Hairpieces: €50 extra
- Second styling (civil ceremony on another day): 50 % of the package price
- Travel costs: €0.40 per kilometre
All packages include make-up, hair and a trial of about two hours. I work exclusively with luxury brands. The details are on the bridal styling page.
What should be included in the price
- A trial with consultation where make-up and hair are fully tested
- High-quality, long-lasting products
- Travel or a clear rule for travel costs
- Enough time on the wedding day, without rushing
- Photos from the trial so you can decide in your own time
Costs for guests
I can style your mother, maid of honour and bridesmaids too. Full guest styling costs €100, make-up only €69, hairstyling only €49, an updo €69. How much time to plan for several guests is in the wedding morning schedule.
What the price depends on
- Experience and training of the stylist
- Location: studio, at home, hotel or abroad
- Time: very early starts or long standby cost more
- Number of people and total duration
- Extras such as hairpieces, lashes or touch-ups
For weddings in Mallorca, Tenerife or other places abroad I prepare an individual quote, you cover flights and accommodation. More under destination weddings.
