Example timeline


*Important - Every artist / stylist is different! So please only use this template as a guide, every single person has different skin, face shape, different hair density, length which means some take less time and some take waaaaayyyyyy more time so please check with your stylist and ask them for their estimated timeline.

*Note: MUA's and Hairstylists always work backwards from time you tell them you need to be ready by/walking out the door.


It's usually preferable for all involved to have you or your group ready 45 min - 60min before you need to leave so that you can get into your dress, your photographer can take some beautiful portraits of you before you leave for your ceremony or if you are onsite you can have a moment before you head down the aisle.


As a general guide this is how a wedding morning goes when it comes to Wedding Hair and Makeup... (continued below..)

Wedding day scheduling timeline showing hair and makeup appointments starting at 8:15 AM for a 3:30 PM ceremony.

...Based on the above chart you will see how a larger Bridal party or an early ceremony time may put pressure on your day. 4 x hair and makeups is absolutely possible with one artist doing both hair & makeup, however, if you have more people needing on-the-day services then I strongly suggest hiring a support stylist / second artist / assistant through your chosen H&MUP person.


They will have connections and colleagues ready to help get you get ready so theres no stress and no super-early morning start.
