What time should hair & make up come?! Help appreciated

hellooo!

so I'm planning from the UK and I've never been to Vegas so creating a timeline isn't easy!

I'm just in he process of booking beauty by Brianna and debating what time to book her for

Wedding is at 2pm at Sunset Gardens off strip - google maps says it will take approx 20 minutes to get from the Venetian to sunset but as its memorial week it has been suggested that I set off at 1pm as traffic may be bad.

so Brianna suggested hair and make up 9-11
to give time to get into my dress, collect my belongings walk through the casino, maybe a cheeky photo or 2 in the hotel on the way out
car to wedding at 1pm
wedding 2pm

Does this sound ok? Or is the gap between my hair and make up being finished and getting married too long? Obviously I don't want to be rushed but I want my make up to be fresh

any advice or opinions would really be appreciated! ☺️☺️☺️

    Is your H&M the only one being done?  My wife and I got married at 4pm and H&M started at 9am because it was being done for her, four BM's and two moms.  I think the 9-11 sounds okay, you might be able to push it to 10-12 but you run the risk of something coming up that delays the process, etc. and then you're starting to get close to your wedding departure deadline.  If you have more than one person being done, I definitely wouldn't go later unless she's bringing an assistant.

    Yeah it's just me getting H & M done.

    think I might go with 9.30-11.30 for a happy medium!

    I just home from Vegas and came from Ireland. My wedsing was 5pm. Hair and makeup came at 12. For 4 hair and 3 makeup. I told them what time they needed to be gone. ie .. what time i needed to start dressing and they told me what time they would arrive. 

    My limo was arriving at 430pm 
    I told them i needed to be ready by 4pm. My contract said 330pm first ready obligation.

    You shouldn't need more than an hour to put on dress shoes and walk down and get some snaps imo

    I think you're dead on for timing. Bri was awesome at helping me pick my timing (and I tried to minimize the time in between, which I wish I hadn't, but c'est la vie!)
