Your wedding morning is one of the most exciting, joy-filled parts of your big day. Amid the excitement, ensuring everyone is ready on time is essential. But how many people can realistically get their hair styled on the morning of the wedding? As a professional bridal hairstylist, I’m here to break down the process, timing considerations, and how we can ensure everything runs smoothly.
How Many Can Be Styled? It Depends on the Timing.
In general, I can style the bride plus up to 7 additional people (bridesmaids, mothers, guests) by myself. The key factor? Timing. Here’s how it breaks down:
Each guest’s hairstyle typically takes 40 minutes.
The bride’s hairstyle usually takes about 1.5 hours, depending on the complexity of the style.
To achieve this, we may need to start styling as early as 6:00 AM. This ensures there’s ample time for everyone to be ready, relaxed, and looking fabulous.
Venue Access and Timing Considerations
To make everything seamless, confirm your venue's access to the preparation room ahead of time. Knowing when we can start setting up and styling helps avoid last-minute stress.
If we have limited venue access or need to style more than 8 people, there are options available!
The Bridal Party’s Role: Preparing for a Smooth Morning
For everything to run like clockwork, it’s key that the bridal party does their part. This means washing their hair the night before or the morning of the wedding, and ensuring it is completely dry before styling. If someone desires a sleek style but has curly or frizzy hair, it’s helpful to straighten their hair beforehand. Additionally, bringing an inspiration picture of the desired hairstyle gives me a quick understanding of their vision. Most importantly, everyone should be ready to sit in the styling chair on schedule to keep the process flowing smoothly.
Considering an Assistant? More Hands, More Styles!
If you’re dreaming of including more than 7 people in the styling schedule, booking an assistant is a game-changer. With an assistant, we can style as many people as you’d like while keeping things on track and stress-free.
Pricing Tip: If we don’t involve an assistant, I can offer better pricing for larger groups. The more people, the better the deal!
Flexibility for Your Special Day
I understand that wedding mornings can be unpredictable. I’m more than happy to begin styling as early as needed—no time is too early when it comes to helping you look and feel your best!
Final Thoughts
Your wedding morning should be filled with joy, laughter, and calm preparation. By planning ahead, confirming venue access, and understanding the timing, you can ensure a stress-free beauty experience for you and your bridal party.
