ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Makeup can set the tone for your whole wedding morning, and the person you hire matters more than people think.
In this episode of Shoot the Vows, we sit down with Christy Monti of Monti Makeup and Mindfulness, a makeup artist, esthetician, and yoga teacher with a studio in Camillus, New York. We talk about how wedding day makeup affects the energy of the morning, why the right vendor fit matters, and what couples should actually pay attention to when they are booking beauty services.
We're talking about:
💄 Christy's background in the beauty industry, including the fact that she started her makeup career in 2008. 🧘 Why calm vendor energy and personality fit matter so much on a wedding day. ⏰ How makeup is one of the first parts of the day and can really set the tone for everything that follows. 👯 How couples can choose between booking Christy solo or adding an assistant based on timeline and bridal party size. ❄️ Touch-up kits, mineral powder, and what actually helps when cold weather starts messing with your makeup. 👁️ False lash trials, eye shape, and making sure the final look matches what the bride actually wants. 📝 Why a bridal trial is basically part beauty preview, part investigation, and a chance to ask a lot of questions.
If you are planning your wedding and trying to figure out how to choose a makeup artist who is talented, calm, and actually listens, this episode will help.
