Bridal Makeup Price in Lonavala & Khandala
Covers: Lonavala, Khandala, Kunegaon, Tungarli and Khopoli · team based in Pune, about 90 minutes away
A ghat wedding is close enough to Pune that people expect city pricing, and far enough that someone has to drive up, sleep there and be ready before dawn. This page puts the two parts side by side: the published price per look, and the travel and stay that sit on their own line. Bridal looks are ₹45,000 each, with makeup, hairstyling and draping included.
- Bridal look: ₹45,000
- Family look: ₹20,000
- Travel and stay on a separate line

Inside the price
What ₹45,000 covers, and what it doesn’t.
The only thing billed outside the look price is getting the team to the ghats and keeping them there. Everything else that makes a bridal look is inside it.
What moves the total
Five things that change a Lonavala quote.
The look price doesn’t change between venues. The total does, and these are the reasons.
- 01 · How many looksThe biggest driver by far. A one-day wedding with a single bridal look is a very different number from a weekend with haldi, mehendi, sangeet and pheras.
- 02 · Family looksMothers and sisters often add as much as the bride’s second look. Decide early who needs a full look so the team size is right.
- 03 · Start timeA function after lunch can sometimes be done with a morning drive from Pune. A 7 a.m. muhurat cannot; it needs the team staying overnight, which changes the travel line.
- 04 · Where you are on the ghatRhythm and The Fern sit near the Expressway; Della is further in at Kunegaon; Novotel is down in Khopoli. Travel time inside the area changes the plan, not the look price.
- 05 · SeasonPeak winter weekends and Diwali dates book first. The rate stays the same; availability is what you lose by waiting.
A worked example
What an itemised two-day quote looks like.
This is illustrative, not an offer: a two-day wedding at a Lonavala resort, with a sangeet on the first evening and a morning wedding the next day.
| Line | Detail | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Bride · sangeet look | Evening look, makeup, hair and drape | ₹45,000 |
| Bride · wedding look | Morning muhurat, full bridal look | ₹45,000 |
| Family · three looks | Mother and two sisters on the wedding day | ₹60,000 |
| Looks subtotal | ₹1,50,000 | |
| Travel and stay | Pune to Lonavala and back, one night on site before the muhurat | Quoted at cost |

The honest comparison
A local artist will often cost less. Here is what you are paying for.
Booking someone based in Lonavala removes the travel line completely. What it doesn’t give you is a look you have already trialled, from a team that has done hundreds of Pune and Mumbai weddings.
Most of our Lonavala brides are from Pune or Mumbai and have had their trial in our Pune studio, often weeks before. The team that arrives on the ghat already knows the face, the jewellery and the drape — so the wedding morning is spent finishing a plan, not inventing one. If budget is the deciding factor, a single bridal look from us with family looks done locally is a common, sensible split.

Price questions
What couples ask before they book.
Short answers to the questions we get most about pricing a Lonavala or Khandala wedding.
How much does bridal makeup cost in Lonavala?
Tejaswini’s bridal looks for Lonavala, Khandala and Khopoli are Rs 45,000 per look, including makeup, hairstyling and draping. Family looks are Rs 20,000 each. The team’s travel and stay are quoted separately, at cost.
Is travel included in the bridal price?
No. Travel from Pune and any overnight stay are shown on their own line, worked out once for the whole wedding rather than per function.
Why is the Lonavala price higher than in Pune?
Because of time. A ghat wedding takes the team out of Pune for a full day or more, often with an overnight stay, during which they cannot take other bookings. The look itself is the same standard.
Is every function charged separately?
Yes. Each bridal look is priced separately, so a haldi, sangeet and wedding are three looks. Travel and stay, by contrast, are counted once.
Can we do the trial in Pune?
Yes, and most couples do. A trial in the Pune studio before the wedding means the team arrives in Lonavala with the look already decided.
Do you charge extra for an early-morning muhurat?
The look price stays the same. An early start usually means the team stays at or near your venue the night before, and that stay is part of the travel line on your quote.
Is the price the same for Khandala and Khopoli?
Yes. The same per-look rates apply across Lonavala, Khandala, Kunegaon, Tungarli and Khopoli.
How do we confirm the booking?
Send your date, venue and functions on WhatsApp, and you will receive a written, itemised quote. The date is held once the booking amount is paid.
