Bridal work is structurally different from regular appointments because it involves two separate sessions that need to stay linked: the trial to establish the look, and the wedding day to execute it. Goldie lets you create distinct service types for each, collect a deposit at the time of booking to hold the date, and store detailed notes and photos from the trial directly in the client's profile so you arrive on the wedding morning knowing exactly what products you used, what she loved, and what to avoid. The date is protected from the moment the deposit lands, not when you get around to confirming.

Arriving on location without knowing a client has sensitive skin, wears contacts, or recently had a chemical peel is one of the most avoidable problems in makeup work. Goldie's client forms let you build a custom intake that new clients complete when they book online, capturing event type, skin concerns, product allergies, look references, and their ready-by time before you ever touch your kit. All of it is stored in their client profile so you can review it the night before any appointment, not dig through emails while you are packing your bag.

On-location work is standard for makeup artists, but travel time and distance need to be factored into your pricing and calendar, not treated as an afterthought. Goldie lets you set services with custom pricing so you can build a travel fee directly into your on-location service rates, making it visible to clients at the point of booking with no surprise charges on the day. 

A 90-minute makeup appointment that ends at a venue across town cannot immediately be followed by another booking back at your studio. Goldie lets you configure buffer time before and after any service so that travel and setup are protected in your calendar automatically, not just in your head. Overbooking yourself on a day with multiple on-location appointments is one of the fastest ways to be late to a wedding, and buffer time is what prevents it.

Goldie's client management lets you save detailed written notes and photos against each visit in a client's profile, so you can record foundation shade, liner technique, lash style, and any skin reactions from the trial, and pull them up immediately on the morning of the wedding. Clients who feel that kind of consistency and attention to detail rebook and refer without being asked.
