It is not too early, especially if your vendor books quickly!! Take pictures and write notes so your mu artist can recreate that look.

I'm actually doing my trial in a few weeks and I still have a year to go

I had just called the salon earlier. They recommend trials be done 6 weeks before the date. She said this is because your hair length and skin tone will be similar to that of the wedding date.

ITA - I would do a trial early just to see if you vibe with the makeup person. That's what I did. I plan on doing another trial before my wedding, prob like a month or so beforehand.

It can be late if you have a particularly popular make-up artist in mind or need one to travel to you or have a whole bridal party in need. They tend to book up fast. If you're open to anyone or going to a salon for someone, you may be fine.
