Requested Booking Information for Blush Asheville


Thank you for stopping by our blog! We appreciate you so much! 

We get inquiries each day with the same questions, so I thought it would be good if I listed the most requested information on the blog! 


Yes, we have a minimum booking rate for weddings on Friday, Saturdays & Sundays as well as bookings outside of Asheville City Limits on weekdays. 

No, We do not airbrush. 

We book up very quickly. We are already receiving inquiries into October 2015  & are blessed by being on numerous Recommended Vendor Lists through out Asheville & Cashiers. 

WE LOVE OUR JOB & are so thankful for all of the referrals! 

May & October Saturday/Sundays are always the first to book each year. 

One artist can accommodate up to 5 total ladies. After this, a 2nd artist is added for an additional fee to cover travel, taxes & supplies. 

A quote is NOT a contract. We send out 10-12 quotes each week & unable to hold any date or time without our contract/deposit. 

If makeup services are requested at our studio, the minimum rate still applies for Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays. 

We love working with Brides! That is our forte! 

Who’s ready to book with us?I thank you again!

My love for Pure Barre!




  Shout out to Blushing Brides to be!!! 


If you follow me on facebook, you know that I am a HUGE lover of Pure Barre!  I want to give a shout out to them because I think it's important for my brides to know that they have a "Bride to Be" package!!! If you are local, call the Asheville studio today!
 (828-274-6595)

Pure Barre's are located throughout the US, so definitely call & sign up for your first class asap! My testimonial went up today on their fan page!  (CLICK HERE)



Don't you want your arms to look fabulous in your dress & look a little leaner on the big day? What woman doesn't?
That's me below with fellow Blush Artist...Kristen Davis!!! 



What if you're not a teenie tiny Ballerina? LOL! Don't worry...I AM NOT!! See below their response...

Neither are we! We strive to make our studios a place where everyone will feel comfortable. Pure Barre is a low-impact workout and can be done by women of all shapes, sizes, and ages. As long as you can hold on to the ballet barre, you can do Pure Barre! No dancing experience is required. While the Pure Barre technique is high intensity, it is very low impact, meaning you’ll get a great workout without putting excessive stress on your joints. If running or jumping has ever caused pain or stress to your joints, Pure Barre may be just what you're looking for. We focus on very tiny isometric movements, so size truly does not matter. Pure Barre is one of the fastest, most effective ways to change the shape of your body. Client typically see the best results when they take 3-4 classes per week.

Call today!!! Your toosh will thank you!!! 

Love, Wendy
