The short answer

Bellus is a mobile bridal hair and makeup service that travels out to Vacy and the Paterson Valley. Amanda Frost works on private properties all the time, so a farmhouse kitchen bench and a bit of window light are enough to get a whole party ready. Vacy is a Hunter Valley booking, so a $150 to $200 travel fee is confirmed with your quote and the country address changes nothing else about the price.

Mobile bridal artist serving Vacy and surrounding areas

Vacy is one of those small villages that’s perfectly, quietly beautiful - set in the lush Paterson Valley, surrounded by green farmland, with the Paterson River nearby and a stillness that makes it feel genuinely far away from the everyday. Couples who choose Vacy for their wedding tend to want something intimate and real, and the homesteads and rural properties in this area deliver exactly that. I love travelling to Vacy for bridal appointments, it’s one of those morning drives I genuinely look forward to.

Vacy bookings run exactly like the rest of my wedding hair and makeup in the Hunter Valley work: same prices, same kit, the same one-wedding-a-day rule.

Vacy questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does hair and makeup cost for a Vacy wedding?

Bridal hair is $160 and bridal makeup is $160, so the bride is $320 for both. Bridesmaids are $150 for hair and $150 for makeup, mothers of the bride and groom are $130 for makeup, and flower girls start at $60. Vacy weddings are often small and held on a private property, and the pricing is per person rather than per party, so an intimate homestead morning is costed exactly the same way, plus the $150 to $200 Hunter Valley travel fee confirmed in your quote. Trials are $150 each and a $300 deposit holds your date.
