HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT NORTHERN WAVES?
Please copy, paste, and send these answers back to me if you are interested in moving forward with Northern Waves to
Northern Waves
Thank you for your inquiry but most of all congratulations! My name is Emily Henning. My team and I offer the convenience of ON-SITE bridal services. I also co-own a salon in Traverse City, MI Salon. This is where I provide cuts, colors, facial hair threading, hair extensions…and pretty much anything else that pertains to hair. I have over 17 years proudly invested in the beauty industry. Working my way through the ranks from salon receptionist, stylist, barber, self employed stylist, starting Northern Waves, opening and co-owning MI Salon, and licensed educator I never short myself on personal and professional growth. My children and my profession are the highlights of my world. Everything I do is with these two images in mind.
Northern Waves has won multiple Couple’s Choice Awards over the past several years. This award was given to us for being in the top 5% of northern Michigan’s hair and makeup stylists with outstanding service, professionalism, customer service and creativity out of all the wedding professionals nationwide. It is an honor to be recognized for outstanding work but to me, this is how a business should be conducted. Please read our reviews so that you are assured you have the best choice in all of Northern Michigan for your bridal stylist to be as stunning as you possibly can be.
Please visit Northern Waves On-site Bridal Stylist on Facebook, weddingwire.com and theKnot.com to see some of our work and read our reviews. Our experience goes far beyond what is shown here.
NORTHERN WAVES INFORMATION
BOOKING YOUR EVENT
Amount of Booking fee $100
This is NON-REFUNDABLE AND ONLY APPLIED TO TRAVEL WITHIN A CERTAIN RADIUS. THIS AMOUNT IS NOT APPLIED TO ANY SERVICES. Please see below for further details. Also, additional travel fees and additional stylist fees are due at the time of contract and are NON-REFUNDABLE. This fee also covers unlimited emails and text correspondence as well as an itinerary for hair and makeup on your day. $200 booking fee for weddings during a holiday weekend (Thursday-Sunday).
SERVICES
On the contract you will find space to write the names and services desired for your attendants. Once you send this contract back to me I will total up the overall cost. 20% of these costs are due at the time of contract. The remaining payment will be due in cash on the wedding day or other arrangements made. The wedding will not be booked until all fees and payments are made. These fees and payments are NON-REFUNDABLE. We can always try to add services but no cancelations or changes are permitted. Cancelled weddings or services will still be charged full amount to the card on file. 20% gratuity is added to all services subtotals plus 7%.
*If your wedding is being subcontracted through Northern Waves with artists on my team then 50% is collected before the wedding and the remaining is due on the wedding day. I will figure this all out for you; it’s not as confusing as it sounds.
Trials
Trials are only done on TUESDAYS, WEDNESDAYS, THURSDAYS, and Friday mornings due to weddings and other contracted events. Contact me to schedule your trial as close to your event month as possible. Keep in mind that I am an established stylist with a full clientele; I schedule out at least 2 months. Book your trial as soon as possible but as close as you can to the actual wedding day. Trials for weddings that are contracted through other artists other than myself-please are scheduled through me as well. We will arrange a time, together or with the artists. Trials are not included or free.

Additional fees
If more than one stylist is needed on site there is an additional $50 for each stylist. Please discuss numbers and details with me so there are no surprises. This money is due at time of booking. This money is NON- REFUNDABLE as I have secured additional artists that have blocked off this time.
If services are needed after services are complete there will be a charge of $75 per 30mins. Please try not to change rooms / locations because it creates a measurable decrease in timeliness. Make sure your photographer has our prep schedule to avoid extra costs.
Any hotel, parking, or fairy fees, etc, must be paid in advance. We will work towards an agreement to settle this. If any fees are incurred while traveling to the wedding it will be the responsibility of the signing party to reimburse artists. Personal meals are not required to be covered.
