Granite Bay weddings

Bridal hair and makeup in Granite Bay

Granite Bay is in Placer County, between Roseville and Folsom Lake, a short trip from Alaena's Rocklin studio. She comes to the Granite Bay getting-ready location for bridal hair and makeup, including a private home when that is where the party is starting.

A Placer County morning, still priced by the mile

Same county does not replace the travel rule. Granite Bay is close to Rocklin, and the trip is still measured. Travel within 30 miles of the studio is included. Beyond 30 miles, the fee is $2 per mile, round trip, from Rocklin to the event location. She confirms it from the address before the date is held.

If the ceremony is in another Placer city, send the place she should arrive. Put Granite Bay on the form and the address plus the be-ready time in the notes.

Bridal hair is about an hour and bridal makeup about an hour and a half. A bridesmaid or mother is about 45 minutes for hair and an hour for makeup. A flower girl 8 or under is about 20 minutes each. Add a 30 to 60 minute buffer before you need to be finished. A wedding needs at least four services, and a $150 assistant fee may apply for a large party.

A Granite Bay prom or quinceañera uses the event menu: $150 for hair and $150 for makeup per person, with no four-service minimum.

What is included

These are the bridal prices for a Granite Bay wedding. They match the services page. The $100 retainer is a booking fee on top of the menu, not a credit toward it.

The trial at the Rocklin studio

Book the trial at the Rocklin home studio, not at the Granite Bay house. There is no travel fee. Hair is $115, makeup is $115, and both together are $220. Brides are encouraged to come in so the style is settled before the house is on a schedule. A quinceañera or other event trial uses the same studio and the same prices.

How booking works

Share the date when you have it. Alaena will tell you if that day is open. Proximity to the studio does not hold a spot. The retainer and the contract do.

  1. 1

    Inquire with the date, Wedding as the event, Granite Bay as the location, the number of people, and hair, makeup, or both.

  2. 2

    Add the getting-ready address and the ready time in the notes for the travel confirmation.

  3. 3

    A $100 retainer and a signed contract reserve the date. The retainer does not apply toward hair and makeup.

  4. 4

    The contract is requested at least 30 days out.

Payment accepted: cash, Venmo, Cash App, Apple Pay, and check.

Granite Bay is close to Rocklin. Is travel automatically free?

Travel within 30 miles of the studio is included, and anything past that is $2 per mile, round trip, from Rocklin. Granite Bay is nearby, in the same county, but she still confirms the fee from the address before holding the date.

How many services do I need to book a Granite Bay wedding?

A minimum of four. The date is held with a $100 retainer and a signed contract. The retainer does not apply toward the total, and the contract is requested at least 30 days before the wedding.
