The Beauty Bar Planners Love to Recommend

Our event planner referral program is for wedding and event planners who want one less thing to worry about. You bring the vision and the client. Then we bring a custom perfume bar, Lip Lab or skincare bar that runs smoothly from setup to the last guest.

Better yet, planners who book four or more events a year earn an 11% commission. Plus, ask us for details on repeat-booking rewards, partner pricing for your own events, and a feature on our website. It is all part of our wider Partner Program, too.

Why Planners Join Our Event Planner Referral Program


Planners carry a lot on event day. First, you run the vendor timeline, meaning the hour-by-hour schedule for every vendor. You also calm the client and solve small surprises. So a wedding planner needs every vendor to show up early, stay calm and follow the plan. That is exactly how our team works.

Our hosts arrive one hour before guests, bring their own linens and set up without fuss. Then they guide guests through scent, color and bottle in a warm, unhurried way. As a result, your client sees a polished station, and you see a vendor who never needs chasing.

Design control stays with you. Any perfume bar format can sit on a table, a luxury counter or a candy cart. Also, your client can dress the tables to match the theme, and custom labels can be printed in advance. In short, our bar becomes part of your event design instead of an add-on that clashes.

Handoffs made simple. First, send us the client's date, venue, guest count and contact. Next, we reply to booking inquiries within two business days. Then tell us how involved you want to be, and we will follow your lead.

What Clients Get Through the Event Planner Referral Program


Choose the bars that fit your client's guests and budget before you finalize the proposal. Each one is hosted by our team, so you never have to staff it.

Custom Perfume Bar by Glitters & Grace
01

Custom Perfume Bar

Guests blend an eau de parfum from absolutes, CO2 extracts and essential oils, so each bottle is their own. For a big wedding, the Signature format moves 85 to 100 guests an hour, while blending bars suit smaller rooms.

Ways Planners Use Our Bars


Planners in our event planner referral program bring us in for many reasons. Here are three that come up again and again.

A cocktail hour favorite

A perfume bar for weddings keeps guests happily busy while the couple takes photos. Then every guest leaves with a bottle that doubles as a favor. See wedding perfume bars.

Corporate client gifts

For a corporate planner, a perfume bar or Lip Lab turns client appreciation into a hands-on memory. Read more on corporate fragrance events.

A theme brought to life

For a styled party, we also match signage and colors to your theme. Then guests make something that fits the look of the room.

Planner Details We Handle for You


After all, you should never have to explain our setup to a venue. So here is what we cover through the event planner referral program, and what we need from you.

Load-in timing

Our team arrives one hour early. Tell us the venue's load-in rules, and we will plan around them and around your other vendors.

Tables and linens

We bring linens. Your client provides tables, or we bring them for $30 each, so the floor plan stays in your hands.

Guest flow

A Signature bar moves 85 to 100 guests an hour, while a blending bar serves about 50. So we help you choose the format that suits the guest count.

Custom labels

Also, labels with the couple's names or the date are a paid add-on. Since they are printed in advance, order them at booking. We do not print on site.

How Client Pricing and Planner Perks Work


Adult perfume bars start at $500 and are quoted per event, not per guest. So your client's proposal stays simple to compare. Plus, perks in the event planner referral program, such as partner pricing and repeat-booking rewards, are available. Ask us for details.

Two studios

A Studio Your Clients Can Visit

Our Mokena studio opens in January 2027 at 19060 Everett Blvd, Suite 107. It has a party room for up to 40 guests and a kitchen, which suits a small shower or a client thank-you party. Adults can bring their own beverages to the party room, too.

Also, clients can walk in or book an appointment to make perfume or lip color before the big day. A second studio is planned for Chicago, opening in late 2028. For larger groups, we still come to the venue you have chosen.
