Hair/makeup recs

I need some help! So next on the to-do list is finding someone to do my hair and make-up for the wedding. I also have two bridesmaids who I was going to pay for their hair and make-up too. So three people. 

I'm trying to find someone that has reasonable pricing, or will at least include the trials in their minimums. It's a December wedding, not exactly during the busy wedding season.  I did some research, and thought I had found a vendor (Baltimore Bridal Makeup), but the hair lady won't include my trial, and so bumped up the price on everyone to meet the minimum. I might still go with the make-up lady though. 

I'll be contacting Up Do's for I Do's tonight, but I'm kinda stressing about this now, and could really use some recommendations! I'm willing to travel to the place, as long as it's nearby downtown Baltimore. 

Thanks in advance!

    Jamie (BBH) charges for her trial, but her day of hair is pretty cheap.  I am using her and think she's worth every single penny I'm paying her.  If you find a place where you don't pay for a trial, you're going to pay as much for just the day of as you would have for Jamie's trial and day of combined.

    I am using Up Do's for I do's. I know a few girls have used Baltimore Bridal Hair.

    I didn't really want to spend more than $400 for three people. I may try skipping the hair trial to save some money.  I have a friend who offered to play around with my hair so I could get a feel for what I liked.  

    Or I may just pay the money and pretend like it was money I never had. We've basically paid for most of the wedding (everything but food and alcohol) in the last two months, and it started adding up quickly!

    I am a regular client at Image Is, so I'm using them for my wedding.  They charge an additional (flat rate) of $75 if you want them to come to you.  My hair and make-up both include trial runs.  I think I'm paying around 120 for hair and 90 for makeup (but don't quote me on that).  My bridemaids are 60 for updos, 30 for blow-outs, and I think 60 for makeup (again, don't quote me on price, I booked this a couple months ago and don't remember the exact prices).  We all also get a discount on any service we want the week of the wedding, such as facials, waxings, nails, etc.  They are in Cockysville.  If you are interested, call and ask for Michelle, she is the owner and she is so sweet.  I recommend Amy for hair.
