Build a starter kit, always sanitize! Practice "bridal" make, it is its own genre, no one should have a bright blue eye on, for a wedding. Charge something, it should not be a ton, as you are not a professional, but you are still using your time! And your time should be worth something! Always wear black, or something dark on jobs, if you want to be treated as if you know something, you need to look the part! And always, have fun, bridal work is like nothing else! You have to be in charge, stay on the time line, and make sure everyone is feeling confidant! Also always be on time! Good luck! :) you will love it!

Do a trial make over before the wedding make sure you know what the bride wants, what's her skin type and take an after pic so she knows what it will look like in pictures. Be extremely prepared for the wedding day, don't be late and make sure you got the look down on time.It will be a busy day but worth it.
