FULL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Please ensure you read all terms and conditions before signing the booking form. If you have any questions, please contact quirkeartistry@gmail.com

THE BOOKING PROCESS

1a) To secure your date, a signed agreement (booking form) is required along with a non refundable/non transferable booking fee of £80.00 per booking (not per person).

1b) Once I have received your booking form and fee, It can take up to 48 hours to receive your booking confirmation.

1c) Booking forms and fees must be sent within 7 days of receiving the booking form link, If failure to do so your date will be released again.

BRIDAL PREVIEW APPOINTMENTS

2a) Previews will usually take place 2-6 months prior to the wedding. I include trials in my packages because i believe they are of the utmost importance. If you choose to book a trial only then wish to book me for the day after, this will be charged at 'a on the day price', not as a package.

2b) In the event you wish to not have a bridal preview, Id like to bring to your attention that this can lengthen the application time on the day of the wedding which may cause added pressure to yourself (the client) especially if you want to change the look entirely, there may not be time to do so.

2c) Preview appointments will be held at your home address unless you are not within my catchment area, then a salon appointment will be required. In salon appointments will be designated to Saturdays mostly. Salon appointments are only offered to those not within my catchment area.

2d) In the unfortunate event you wish to not proceed with the booking after your Preview, you can use your booking fee to pay for your preview appointment. You will also be invoiced for any remaining balance owed if any other bridal party previews were booked. 

2e) Preview appointments are approximately around 2-2.5 hours for bride and an additional 60 minutes per bridal party members requiring a Preview appointment. If you have a large bridal party all requiring Previews this may need to be split over 2 appointments.

2f) If you would like another Preview appointment to explore a different look, this will be chargeable at the same rate. 
 

CONSULTATIONS

3a) Prior to your Preview/ wedding day, you will be sent a digital Questionnaire about you and your makeup preferences. This is my design consultation. All this information allows me to get to know you, your skin, what you like, what you don't like etc, and allows me to create your bespoke look.I can highly appreciate you are super busy, so if you do not get time to complete this, this may lengthen your preview/ application

3b) Unfortunately if you are not having a preview and do not complete the digital form, A quick verbal consultation will have to be carried out prior to your application, this unfortunately means you will not benefit fully from the in-depth bespoke consultation.
 

TRAVEL

4a) I only cover areas within my designated catchment area, This mostly covers Warwickshire/ Worcestershire and the Cotswolds area. Please consider your home address, venue and prep location before booking.

4b) Travel costs are free for the first 15 miles each way (30 miles roundtrip) from B97 . After this distance, a mileage fee per mile will occur (using WAZE app). This is subject to change.

4c) If parking charges apply at your venue, this will be chargeable to the client.

4d) If you cannot access your venue until a certain time or for any other reason, it may be necessary to begin at another venue. For this reason an additional fee will occur. This is to cover the time of packaging up my kit, moving venues, unpacking and resetting up my station.

4e) I always leave earlier than i need to ensure i arrive in good time and account for traffic. If i am stuck in traffic due to circumstances out of my control , Timings will need to be addressed which may result in another alternative (see section 8)

PAYMENTS

5a) A booking fee will be required at the time of booking to secure your date. This will be deducted from your final amount for services implemented. (please see my cancellation policy)

5b)Your second instalment will be due after your Bridal preview appointment has taken place.

5c) The remaining balance will be invoiced to you 2 weeks before the wedding. You will have 7 days to pay this. Meaning the remaining balance will need to be paid by 1 weeks before the wedding. If your wedding was booked before 21/06/2024 your final balance will be invoiced 6 weeks prior to the day, you will have 14 days to pay this, This is due to an update in my T&Cs.

5d)Payments need to be paid by bank transfer. If you wish to pay in cash on the day, please note: i will not have change available and you will need to notify me of this by 4 weeks prior to the wedding day. All cash payments must be made upfront before any services are carried out.

5e) If any additional costs occur on the day, An additional invoice will be sent after the wedding and will be chargeable to YOU, the person i have the booking with. So please ensure your bridesmaids check with you before asking me for additional services, for example; An eyelash and liner application.

-Notice 8-12 weeks before the wedding will ensure 50% of your final balance is still owed. In addition to any fees owed from services implemented.
-Notice under 8 Weeks before the wedding will ensure 100% of the final balance is still owed and will need to be paid.

10b) I do not travel to some areas even within Warwickshire/Worcestershire like central Birmingham. This is my choice.

10c) It is the clients responsibility to ensure;
  • Address details are correct
  • Clear directions are given
  • The artist is informed of any parking requirements/restrictions satellite Photograph of house may be needed in case of loss of signal or dark mornings which make house numbers difficult to spot.

10d) Please ensure enough space for the artist to set up. Hotel rooms have limited space and poor lighting. Please factor in space for your makeup artist and hair stylist.

10e) Many venues do not allow access until a certain time, this would most likely mean that if we cannot begin early, the time frame is not possible. This would require usto begin at another location. I strongly advise to avoid this as we will need to add more time and cost on to account for packing up, changing venues and unpacking.This could cause added pressure and stress to the bride & bridal party. You could ask if you could pay to gain access earlier, or we could try and find an additionalartist but i cant guarantee i can supply one for you.
