Why Bother

You are in the photos too

Guests get photographed constantly at Indian weddings and almost never plan for it. This is the low-effort fix.

About an hour

Makeup and hair together, done at home before you leave. Faster than getting to a salon and back, and you arrive ready.

A fraction of bridal pricing

Guest bookings are priced well below bridal packages. Most people are surprised at how modest the cost actually is.

Matched to your outfit

Send a photo of the saree or lehenga and we bring shades that work with it, rather than a generic evening look.

Comfortable all night

Light enough to wear through a ceremony, a meal and a late drive home without wanting to scrub it off in the car.

Photographs properly

Enough definition to register under hall lighting and flash, without looking made-up in person.

Groups at one house

Sisters, cousins and friends getting ready together works out cheapest per person and is genuinely the nicest way to do it.

Which Function

Different events, different faces

Not every wedding invitation calls for the same look. Here is roughly how we pitch each one.

  1. 01

    Muhurtham — daytime and warm

    Early, bright and often outdoors or in an open hall. Lighter coverage with warm tones photographs best in that light.

  2. 02

    Reception — evening and lit

    Indoors under stage lighting with flash photography everywhere. More definition on the eye and lip is worth it here.

  3. 03

    Engagement — soft and polished

    Usually a daytime lunch event. Glowing and understated, with hair that survives a few hours of conversation.

  4. 04

    Sangeet — built for movement

    You will be dancing. Waterproof everything, hair secured off the face, and a lip that will not need constant attention.

  5. 05

    Multiple functions in a week

    Attending three events for the same wedding is common. Book them together and we vary the look so your photos are not identical.

FAQ

Wedding Guest MakeupQuestions

How much does wedding guest makeup cost in Chennai?
Guest makeup is priced per person and sits well below bridal package pricing. Message us with the function and date and you will have a firm quote the same day — there is no obligation.
How long does guest makeup take?
About an hour for makeup and hairstyling together. For a group at one house we allow roughly an hour each and send you a running order.
Do you come to my home?
Yes, that is the point of it. We come to you before you leave for the function, and there is no travel charge inside Chennai city limits.
Can a few of us book together?
Yes, and it is the most economical option. Sisters, cousins and friends getting ready at one address works out cheaper per person than everyone booking separately.
What should I send you before the booking?
A photo of your outfit, the function type and the time you need to be ready. That is enough for us to bring the right shades and plan the hairstyle.
Will guest makeup last through the whole evening?
Yes. It uses the same long-wear routine as our bridal work with lighter coverage, and you keep blotting sheets and your lip shade for a refresh after the meal.
Can I book at short notice?
Often, yes. Guest bookings do not compete with peak muhurtham dates, so same-week and sometimes next-day slots are available. Ask and we will answer honestly.
Is hairstyling included?
Yes — a blow-dry, waves, a bun or a half-up chosen against your outfit and neckline is part of the booking rather than an add-on.
