WEDDING MAKEUP IN PORTSMOUTH

Portsmouth weddings are usually city and coast at once, often a hotel or a brick building downtown with photos near the water. Getting ready rooms are typically small with mixed lighting, so I bring my own light and keep my setup tight. The coastal air is humid in summer and the wind off the river is steady, so I build a long wear base, set it in thin layers and keep the lash line waterproof. Brides here often want polished and modern with a clean eye, which photographs well against brick and water. Downtown parking and one way streets are the practical hazard, so I plan arrival with time to find a spot and carry the kit in. If your photos start with a walk along the waterfront, I will step the look up slightly and leave a touch up kit.

PRICING

Travel to Portsmouth is about $340, quoted for your exact location at booking. That is the round trip drive time from Lewiston at $100 per hour, and it is an estimate rather than a fixed quote.

Party minimum of 3. Smaller groups are considered case by case, so ask.

A 50 percent deposit holds your date. Deposits are nonrefundable, with exceptions considered case by case.

Long drives like Bar Harbor, Rangeley or Jackson are covered by the same $100 per hour round trip travel fee. When an overnight makes sense, I handle the accommodations and we settle it case by case at booking.

Everything is confirmed in writing before your date is held.

TRAVEL AND TIMING

From the studio inside Tucci & Co Salon in Lewiston, Portsmouth is about an hour and forty minutes away, about 95 miles. Downtown parking and one way streets get factored into my arrival time. Bridgette works one wedding per date, so the morning schedule is built around your ceremony time rather than squeezed between jobs.

Plan about an hour for the bride and 30 to 45 minutes for each additional person. Send your ceremony time and Bridgette will work backwards from it with you.

As soon as your date is set. Bridgette takes one wedding per date, so a Portsmouth Saturday in summer or early autumn is worth asking about early. Send your date and party size and she will confirm what is possible.
