Start with the celebration you are planning
Before discussing a makeup look, gather the details of your wedding: dates, venue, ceremony times, outfits and the events you want covered. A morning ceremony and an evening reception may call for different styling choices and schedules. Sharing the whole celebration helps your artist understand where makeup, hairstyling and outfit changes need to fit.
Send a useful enquiry
Include the wedding date, venue and city, the number of people needing services, and when each person must be ready. Mention whether you want bridal makeup, engagement or sangeet makeup, party makeup, hairstyling or saree draping. If you are planning from another city, share when you will be in Udaipur so consultations and any trial arrangements can be discussed.
Work backwards from your ready-by time
Ask your photographer and planner when portraits begin, then coordinate the preparation schedule with your artist. Allow for dressing, jewellery, draping and moving from the room to the ceremony location. Ask the artist how much time your chosen services require instead of assuming one fixed duration will suit everyone. Confirm the plan again if the event timings change.
Prepare the getting-ready space
Ask the venue about a room with comfortable seating, good lighting, a clear surface for the kit and access to power for styling equipment. Confirm how the artist and team will enter the property and reach the room. A clear contact person helps with arrival instructions. Keep the preparation area organised so outfits, jewellery and accessories are easy to find.
Agree on the look before the day
Bring inspiration alongside photographs of your outfits and jewellery. Discuss what you like about each reference and how you normally wear makeup. A trial gives you time to share feedback and refine the look. Juhi typically coordinates bridal trials around two months before the wedding; discuss timing during booking, especially if travel makes an in-person appointment difficult.
Confirm the practical details
Ask for clarity on the services included, team arrangements, travel requirements and any touch-up coverage you need. Do not assume that all-day attendance or changes between events are included. Makeup by Juhi provides on-venue services, focuses on weddings in Udaipur and accepts bookings across India by arrangement. Share your schedule early so the team can discuss availability and the details of your celebration.
