Tiffany did an absolutely amazing job! From the moment I sat in her chair, she made me feel beautiful, confident, and completely comfortable with my hair and makeup. What I loved m...

ost was how she included me in the entire process she made sure I felt part of every step and truly listened to what I wanted. She is so down to earth and has the best vibe. Being around her just feels easy and positive, which makes the whole experience even better. By the end, I felt like the most confident version of myself. I would give her 10 out of 10 stars and recommend her to everyone! On top of her incredible talent, her prices are great and affordable, which honestly made getting my hair and makeup done even possible for me, I'm so grateful for her and can't wait to book again!

Tiffany has been my go to Makeup artist for the last three years. I’m extremely selective with the way my face looks, and she’s the only one who’s been able to master it. I do phot...

o shoots and video shoots weekly, and she is the only one that I trust to master the look I seek. She is quick, uses only the finest products, is very honest, extremely timely and I always walking away looking like $1 million, On top of it always giving me the best face ever - She’s so funny and gets the job done quickly. I will never work with anyone else. She is 100% the best of her trade. Anyone would be so lucky to work with her and have her be available on your special day. I will literally reschedule my video shoot just to make sure she’s the one who touches my face.

I first met Tiffany years ago when she did my makeup while I was a bridesmaid, and I still remember how much I loved her energy and her work. We had an immediate connection. She ma...

de me feel so confident and beautiful that I knew, right then, that she would be my makeup artist on my wedding day. Fast forward to my own wedding, and hiring Tiffany was one of the best decisions I made. She was just as amazing as I remembered… professional, fun to be around, and insanely talented. I was also incredibly grateful that she was willing to drive over 100 miles to do my wedding makeup, which truly shows her dedication to her clients. She not only did my makeup, but also the makeup for all four of my bridesmaids and my mother, and every single one of us looked absolutely stunning. Everyone felt gorgeous and so happy with their looks. My makeup was flawless, lasted all day and night, and truly felt like the best version of me. Tiffany has a way of making you feel relaxed and completely yourself while delivering stunning results. I couldn’t have imagined my wedding day without her. If you’re looking for someone who brings incredible skill, positive energy, and goes above and beyond—Tiffany is it. 💄✨

I booked Tiffany for my cousin‘s wedding last August. She was amazing from the start and was so easy to communicate with leading up to the big day. When you meet Tiffany, you can i...

mmediately tell that she absolutely loves what she does and puts her whole heart into it. She made all of us feel beautiful and ensured we were all comfortable with how we looked before she left. I’ve had my makeup done by many others in the past, but nobody made me feel as beautiful as Tiffany did. I have a lot of freckles and very fair skin and I told her I wanted a good amount of coverage but still wanted some freckles to show. Other makeup artists I’ve met don’t like to cover my freckles, so they typically leave almost all of them showing which isn’t what I want. Tiffany honored my request and let some freckles show through while still giving me the coverage asked for. She also had foundation that matched my skin tone, which has been a problem in the past. She gave me a natural glam look that lasted throughout the wedding that was glowy and I wish I could have on my face every single day! You won’t regret booking Tiffany for any of your big events and I can’t recommend her enough!

She made me feel confident, comfortable, and truly like the best version of myself. Her attention to detail and positive energy are unmatched—I received so many compliments! I would absolutely recommend Tiffany to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable, and wonderful makeup artist.

Tiffany is not only an incredibly talented makeup artist—she is a genuinely beautiful human being. Our family had the honor of having Tiffany do my late mother’s makeup for her fu...

neral services. It is hard to find the right words for that moment, but Tiffany approached it with the utmost professionalism, grace, and delicacy. She understood the weight of the moment and treated my late mother—and our family—with such care and respect. What could have been an overwhelming experience was instead handled with compassion and calm. I had not planned on attending the viewing, but Tiffany’s presence, reassurance, and gentle energy eased my heart and gave me the strength to be there. She has a rare gift: the ability to bring light into even the darkest moments. Her warmth, positivity, and faith are felt the instant you meet her. Tiffany has an incredible eye for beauty, but more importantly, she sees the beauty in people. She brings peace, professionalism, and excellence into every space she enters. Her work is flawless, but it is her heart that truly sets her apart. I cannot recommend Tiffany enough—not only as a makeup artist, but as someone you can trust with life’s most meaningful moments. Signature Brides by Tiffany is more than a business; it reflects who she is—kind, faithful, strong, and deeply genuine.

On top of that, she’s professional, calming, and just a joy to be around, which makes a huge difference on a big day like a wedding. I’ve been going to her for over 15 years and trust her completely.

tention to her work. She made sure the bride looked beautiful and was happy. She gave her an extra bag of touch up products BUT since we had a two part wedding she even came back to change her makeup out to the night event. Tiffany was great with me. I don’t wear makeup often so she ensured me I wouldn’t look caked on but it would have a little more for pictures. The colors she picked looked fabulous and I felt very pretty. Tiffany was great by also touching up my makeup when she came back for the pride. We had another guest who wanted makeup done and Tiffany was able to squeeze her in. Tiffany was so much fun to talk with. It turns out we have mutual friends. I would highly recommend Tiffany for any of your makeup needs!

She completely took control of the process, allowing me to enjoy every moment without worrying about a single thing. Knowing I was in her hands gave me total peace of mind. I also want to highlight her incredible skill. I have melasma from pregnancy, something I’m normally very self-conscious about, and Tiffany did an absolutely phenomenal job covering it while still keeping my skin looking natural and radiant. I genuinely felt like the most beautiful version of myself. If you’re looking for a makeup artist who brings amazing vibes, true artistry, and makes you feel confident, calm, and stunning—Tiffany DePhilippis is the one. 💄✨
