Start time for hair/make-up?

Hi Ladies,

I'm not sure what to do. My ceremony starts at 2:30. The limo is picking us up at 1:45 and the photographer is coming at 12:30.


According to my make-up person we should start at 6:30am. I have 8 people including me getting their hair and make-up done.

My mom thinks that 6:30 is too early since we have the rehersal dinner the night before. Also my cocktail hour doesn't start till 7:30 and she wants to make sure we still look good.

What time do you think I should start getting ready?

I would think to start around 9 would be ok. 6:30 sounds kind of early to me..

My ceremony is at 12noon, and we are taking pics before, so will be leaving my house at 9am. I think I am going to start with hair/makeup at 6am.


ETA: wow, your wedding is next week!! How exciting!!

I think you should start at 9am too.
Do your hair first, then the BM hairs, then your make up.

Either way you have till 12:30 to get ready.
