Makeup X Chloe

One site for the whole bridal party, with every inquiry and contract handled from a dashboard behind it

Where it started

Bridal makeup artist, East Tennessee

What I built

How it came together

The opening line names the service and the place in five words, because a bride searching for a makeup artist in East Tennessee is deciding in about that long whether she is in the right place

Everything a bride asks before she books has a page of its own: what the services are, what a trial is for, who else in the party can be booked, and what previous brides said. The inquiry form asks for the wedding date and venue up front, so the first reply can already be useful

Every price is quoted per wedding rather than published, which is how she works, so the site is built to get to a conversation rather than to a checkout. That makes the back office the important half: inquiries arrive in one list rather than an inbox, and the contract goes out and comes back signed without anything being printed

What is on it

  • Bridal inquiry form with the wedding details up front
  • Portfolio gallery
  • Admin dashboard with inquiries and customers
  • Contract signing with e-signature
  • Local SEO for East Tennessee
  • Google Business Profile setup
