I'm a Florida-based bridal makeup artist. Hurricane Milton has battered the wedding industry and cost me thousands.
Briefly

As a makeup artist, my primary income comes from bridal makeup along the Florida coastline, and during this time of year, I usually earn the most.
Just two weeks ago, Hurricane Helene damaged about 60% of the wedding venues that I work with, which made the situation even more precarious.
I anticipate losing close to $10,000 due to widespread cancellations from Hurricane Milton, which will severely impact my business and family.
These unexpected cancellations mean I won’t have sufficient earnings for the slow winter months, forcing me to seek alternative sources of income.
