A bridal consultation is the first step for any bride planning her wedding-day look. In this focused 30-minute session, you'll sit down with a Timba stylist to talk through your vision, your wedding theme, and the practical details, such as how many bridesmaids will need styling too. It's a low-pressure way to get expert input before committing to further bookings.

What to Expect
During your consultation, your stylist will:
- Ask about your wedding date, venue, and overall theme to understand the context for your look
- Discuss your preferred style, colours, and inspiration, so bring photos or mood boards if you have them
- Gather details on your bridal party size, including bridesmaids, so timing and services can be planned properly
- Talk through any hair, skin, or comfort considerations relevant to your styling
- Outline realistic options based on your preferences and schedule
You'll leave with a clearer sense of direction and an idea of what to book next, whether that's a trial, fitting, or treatment schedule.
Who It Suits
This consultation is ideal for:
- Brides in the early stages of planning who want to explore ideas before committing
- Those who already have a fairly clear vision and want expert confirmation
- Brides who feel unsure and would benefit from guidance to narrow down their options
- Anyone needing to plan styling for a bridal party, not just themselves
Senior Stylist Emma Stokes is among the Timba team who can support this initial conversation, helping translate your ideas into a workable plan.
Preparing for Your Visit
A little preparation helps make the most of your 30 minutes:
- Bring inspiration images or a mood board if you have one
- Know the rough number of bridesmaids or bridal party members needing services
- Have an idea of your wedding date and venue
- Note any allergies or sensitivities relevant to hair or skin
- Think about your budget, so recommendations stay realistic
After the Consultation
Once your consultation is complete, expect a short follow-up:
- Confirmation of the style direction agreed during the meeting
- Next steps, such as booking a trial or fitting
- Any quotes or details for bridal party services, if discussed
- The option to get in touch again if your plans change before the wedding
