What you should consider when hiring locally at your destination or flying an artist over

Travelling for a client doesn’t’ just mean having a passport. It’s far more complicated than that and if your photographer or artist doesn’t think of these things, that work falls on a client. Trust a professional with experience to make sure your destination wedding goes smoothly and stress free.

Here’s what you or your team, needs to consider:

- How to do makeup and hair in another climate.

- How to get through an airport having packed to ensure nothing breaks, or if your bags get lost, you can still do the main part of your work.

- Do you need a car to get you around at your destination or can you rely on buses, shuttles, or trains?

- If your flights get changed last minute, do you have enough time before and after the booking to make sure you can still do it? Or is your timeline too tight?

- Currency. Remember in another country things may cost significantly more and to consider the cost of feeding someone in Europe.

- Local costs. Did you know it costs more to hire a makeup artist in Rome than it costs to fly a Canadian makeup artist over. Each city has different rates for these services and it may be cheaper to fly someone from home (and you may love the end result better).
