Let us come to you for your special day!
Like most brides, you're likely to have a lot on your mind on your wedding day. Rest assured, Tina Rodosta and the Verde team of professional artists can make things easier. Instead of taking your bridal party to a salon, why not let us come to you? We've specialized in on-location beauty services for more than 10 years. Our reputation is unmatched.
Many of our brides book up 9-12 months before their wedding, while it may be too far out for previews we can help take care of your pre-wedding beauty needs.
Wedding Day Previews (or sometimes called 'trial runs') are mostly done at our private studio locations, if you would like us to travel to you that can be arranged as well. Please note that Friday/ Saturday previews are nearly impossible as we are all on location servicing our brides.
Once you book your makeup + hair it is suggested you come in for a preview 6-8 weeks in advance. This way if you want to make any last minute changes we have time to plan. Please make sure that you have all of your hair accessories at the time of the trial as well, this way you can see exactly what your look will be. If you don't yet have your accessories we carry a line of hair accessories in studio.
Make sure you have accounted for everyone and let us know about any additions! We will setup your day of beauty timing for you based on the number of services, location of ceremony to prep location, start time of the wedding and if you will be doing a first look with anyone. Tina excels in day of time management and will set your timing as soon as you book your date based on requested services.
We will send over your start times and details along with some helpful hints! Double check your timing with your photographer and coordination team to make sure that everything looks correct!
Final payments are due via cash, check or card. We will confirm your final timeline and details via email.
This is the day we've all been waiting for!! Our team will arrive at their scheduled time and get set up and ready to go. They'll bring everything including brushes, tools, products, and power strips. We ask that you provide a chair and some table space for each artist. Natural light is the best light for makeup so if you have windows available, this is preferred - however, our artists do bring their own professional lighting if needed.
To keep things running smoothly, we ask that you have everyone ready when the artist arrives. When airbrushing makeup, artists tend to pull by skin tone and work from lightest to the darkest or vice versa. Creating a schedule is not necessary and can actually cause delays. Most delays are by the "scheduled" time slot person not being in the room when artist is ready to go.
When all services are completed, they artists will ask if anyone needs any last minute touchups or changes and take care of everyone's final needs. Then they clean up and put everything back just as it was when they arrived. They'll be your best friends by the time they leave and they'll be counting down to when they get to see some photos of the finished look!
We require a minimum of Bride + 3 for our Team artists, we do have Elopement Packages available for Bride Only Bookings.
Tina does not have a minimum for New Orleans or Baton Rouge weddings, she will do a “bride only”.
Parking fees are required to be paid by the bride for all weddings/events. You may charge artists parking fee to your hotel room for your convenience.
When we first started our business 13 years ago we wanted to provide our clients the best in on location services and over the years we have come to realize that brides also need a place to get ready. Instead of making your mother clean the whole house or renting an hotel room that you will only use for a few hours, we created the Verde Beauty Studio.
“Y’all were AMAZING!!! My hair and makeup was perfect for the rehearsal dinner and wedding day. I got so many compliments!! I also want to thank you for keeping me calm on the wedding day, it was perfect!
Y’all are the best! ”
“Couldn’t have gotten married without her!
I don’t even know where to start...Tina did SO much for me on my wedding day and my bridals! I hired Tina as a makeup artist and when I saw that she offered a package where she would stay throughout the reception for touchups I thought WOW I have to have that! :) Tina went way above and beyond makeup touchups! She was there anytime I needed anything I truly could not have done it without her! Anytime I need makeup or hair from here on out I will use Tina with no question!”
To reserve your artist/stylist a deposit of 50% of total services will be required to officially book your date. We accept all major credit cards.

You will also get an appointment email reminder with all the instructions for your reference. A late fee of $25/day will be charged to accounts remaining open past the due date.
Tina is available Mondays for complimentary consultations via SKYPE™. She will chat with you about your wedding day beauty style and make suggestions on makeup color and hairstyles for you. No obligations. Please contact us for more information. Please email the studio to set up SKYPE time. We also provide in person consultations to our local brides to go over all the services that Verde offers.
We match our bride's personal style to an artist we feel will do an incredible job. We like to get to know each of our clients and match them with the best makeup artist/ hair stylist possible. Please let us know your personal style and feel free to send photos of makeup ideas, along with photos of yourself, wedding dress and anything else you may think would help us, help you.
