Hair and Make up
I need some vendors in Las Vegas I can do maybe even a trail with for my wedding. Im on a 3-4k budget so nothing too expensive. Any help?
*Singing* I can see clearly now the rain is gone, its going to be a bright.... BRIGHT.... bright sun shinny day!

Re: Hair and Make up
She quoted me $195 for my hair and make-up and $130 for my MOH - she requires a contract and $100 deposit (remainder due can be paid day of wedding). She provides you with false lashes and lipstick. She also offers a trial make-up consult for $100, and offers to lower your wedding day price if you do a trial.
She doesn't have any minimums that I am aware of. I don't have BMs so I don't know if it's a flat $130 for each additional person or if she offers a lower rate w/ larger numbers. HTH!!
Now with more wedded bliss.
I don't get married often, but when I do, I do it in Las Vegas.

Our wedding venue was $500 to reserve which it goes towards the reception.Which thankfully my dad put the deposit on it. If we have 75 guests which honestly we are aiming for we will spend $2,500 for the reception. If we have 100 people it will be $3,500 but we cut out list to 95 people including their guests. I'm saying the 75 guest amount I have a lot of "no show" family members all the time
My dress was $685 including the veil, I took that out of my budget I paid for it very early. My mom is putting $500 in but thats no promise. We are using a photography for $425 for 3.5 hours we may use him for the videography being another $425 being about $850 the guy name is Keith I found him on here from another bride asking for photographers, yay!. The centerpieces are mostly from Dollar Tree and a lil from Target the only expensive thing in it is the glowing ice cubes being like $50 but it will work out probably about $100 or $200 mostly.
Florists, fake flowers I don't know how I will find good ones for cheap.
DJ, don't know we need to find one as well.
Don't need transportation same location for both. Honeymoon will be postponed since Im still in school.
Ummmmm, my head is starting to hurt.
Let me think, engagement photos are me slurging being $190 I know the girl from middle school. Invitation are going to be done by a family friend.
That's all I can think of, Jesus I have a lot to do and feel like trying to get more hours looking at the amount of money going to it.
Am I doing good? Please say I am.
I feel stupid for not adding this in the budget. This is like the 5th time I've done this for something.
I don't think you can go wrong with the hair and make-up artists that are suggested on this board... everyone has their own taste and own budget. You just need to figure out what works best for you!
[QUOTE]I used Harmony Medina... who is FANTASTIC. She did my hair, make-up (including air brush and lashes) and trial for $130. She also did my entire wedding party (6 BMs) and both mothers in one day.

So true!
How are you going to feed and water 75 people for $2500? That's $26 PP (before tax and tip). Are you doing a brunch, lunch, heavy apps? Are you doing a dry wedding or beer and wine?
For your tables are you doing basic linens that are included in your package? I would get all of that taken care of before I worried about hair and makeup. You could do yourself or find a beauty school to cut corners.
We can definitely help you break down your budget. I have done it many times for folks and you should be able to search for it. Once you break it down you will know exactly how much you have left over for things like hair, makeup, shoes, accessories, WP gifts and other little things like that.

[QUOTE]I think you should work through your F&B budget before your hair and makeup, honestly. How are you going to feed and water 75 people for $2500? That's $26 PP (before tax and tip). Are you doing a brunch, lunch, heavy apps? Are you doing a dry wedding or beer and wine? [QUOTE]
This. $2500 for 75 people seems really, really low. I'm not saying it CAN'T be done, but would be interested to know if you have already confirmed that you can get what you want in that price range.
Agree w/PPs that you should worry about that first and your hair and makeup later. That's the last thing I booked.
[QUOTE]I don't know if this is out of line... but you all are such a huge book of knowledge! SOO MUCH help! I read the responses to other peoples questions and get my own answered. It's great! <strong> And @smokeybailey, you're just a bad a**! </strong>Love all the help you give everyone else!

I probably won't know the entire amount all together until we send it our head count. Plus I'm still waiting for my contact to be mailed since the coordinator doesn't seem to want to email it again after 2 failed attempts my father has the orginial copy I may ask him to just copy and and mail it to me.
Also, to be honest, which I am, having a cash bar in Vegas for 75 people doesn't sit well with me. I think you may want to consider cutting your guest list and at a minimum offering beer and wine. A DW costs your guests more money than an at home wedding and you should really recieve them accordingly. I am staunchly against cash bars in any case but particularly for a DW.

I respect your honestly on the cash bar, but it is the way we're going. We're not comfortable paying for their alcoholic beverages but they will recieve the ice tea and soft drinks on us,would lose the bar completely but my FI wants to keep it since its only $100 to have it so we're keeping it.
