Onsite vs. Offsite Wedding Hair and Makeup: Which Is Better?

Onsite vs. Offsite Wedding Hair and Makeup: Which Is Better?

What will getting ready for your wedding look like? This vision will depend on whether you schedule an onsite or offsite wedding hair and makeup service.

There are plenty of pros and cons between the two. Let’s break down the main features of each option to find out which is better for your wedding.

Onsite Wedding Hair and Makeup

Not every wedding is located close to the studio. In that case, onsite hair and makeup is a must.

The makeup and hair stylists will gather all the necessary products and equipment for the day. Then, they’ll travel to the location of the wedding.

A Relaxing Wedding Day Morning

The bridal party can gradually wake up at the wedding location. There’s no need for driving and everyone meeting up at the same place. When it’s time to get ready, the stylists will come to you.

Everyone will feel more at ease knowing that there’s no need to think about traffic or messing up hair and makeup along the way. Everything will be conveniently in place for a stress-free morning.

Makeup and Hair Touchups

The happy tears are flowing, and the hot outdoor wedding is causing the bridesmaids to sweat. Since the artists are on location, you can request touchups right before photos or the reception. It’s a wonderful perk of having skilled stylists nearby throughout the day.

Additional Travel Fees

If the hair and makeup artists must travel to the location of the wedding, the service will come with travel fees. The fees will vary depending on how far the stylists must travel for the wedding and the number of clients for the wedding. Before booking the service, be sure to factor this additional cost into the budget.

Offsite Wedding Hair and Makeup

The artists won’t travel to the wedding. Instead, the wedding party will come to them! Here are some things to keep in mind about offsite wedding hair and makeup.

More Artists Are Available at the Studio

When hair and makeup artists must travel to a location, only one or two stylists will be on hand. The makeup and hair process will take much longer.

Going to the studio means there are more hair and makeup artists readily available to assist! The entire wedding party will get makeup and hair done quickly. This means there’s more time for traveling to the wedding location or getting a snack in between.

The Wedding Party Has More Time

There’s no need for bridesmaids waiting around for their turn in the hot seat. Each person will arrive for their scheduled appointment. This means there is plenty of time for everyone to relax the morning of the wedding, eat a good breakfast, and spend more time helping the bride throughout the day.

It’s your wedding day! When choosing between onsite or offsite hair and makeup, the option that is better is the one that is most convenient for your big day.
