Tami and her team came highly recommended, and we immediately understood why. She is knowledgeable, patient and trustworthy, with an infectiously positive energy to match - aka exa...
ctly who you want around at the start of a big event!
With a meticulous attention to detail, Tami works with you to build your perfect look. The makeup is never “caked” on and it doesn’t feel heavy, but, with her precision, you know it has staying power - and then you forget all about it because it feels so natural! It’s evident the products she uses match the high caliber of her skills.
In addition to the quality of her work, I was impressed with the thoughtfulness she applies. Tami approaches the trial not just as an opportunity to figure out the look, but to actually put it to the test. She checks in the next day to find out what stayed and what might need to be altered on the big day. She’s also full of great advice if you want it, and doesn’t just accept feedback, but anticipates it.
In each of these interactions, you can feel her passion and I am so grateful I had the opportunity to work with Tami!
Getting your makeup done for your wedding can feel scary and stressful but I couldn’t have dreamed up a better beauty team if I tried.
I chose Tami because I loved her ability to ...
create an elevated, natural look and was drawn to her use of clean products. It’s a total game changer not feeling like you’re wearing thick, heavy makeup (or worrying you’ll wake up with five million zits the next day).
What you don’t always see in the photos, though, is everything else Tami brings to the table. She radiates joy and love, and she made the entire weekend feel calm and fun. She even came for my rehearsal look as a “dry run,” which allowed her team to set up early for the wedding morning—meaning we got to sleep in a bit more (a gift in itself!).
She kept everyone perfectly on schedule without us even noticing, and every single person felt beautiful and confident. She’s open to feedback, has great suggestions if you want them, and thinks about things you wouldn’t even realize as a bride (like whether you care if a bridesmaid has a similar hairstyle).
I truly felt like I was in the best hands with Tami and her team. I wish I could buy her homemade products in a store, they’re that good. I would recommend her to absolutely everyone.
This recommendation comes so easily, as hiring Tami was one of the absolute best choices I made first my wedding. From the early messaging back and forth, all the way up to the da...
y of my wedding, Tami was a dream to work with. She’s so sweet, helpful and accommodating… she just really made the whole process as easy as possible. Then, on the day of my bridal makeup trial, she proved her skills and talent! Not only did she make me feel more beautiful and “myself” than I had in years… possibly ever; she was willing to try different colors and tweak different aspects until it was just right. One thing I was most concerned about are the acne scars on my cheeks, and I let her know this and that I’d like to conceal them as much as possible but also explained that I didn’t want the foundation to look cake-y. And I don’t know what kind of sorcery she did but my skin looked fantastic, and that confidence honestly was everything I could’ve hoped for as a bride. Lastly, one other thing that was a really cool bonus when working with Tami is that she taught me something about my specific skintone & undertone that has frustrated me my whole life and has ultimately changed the way I do my makeup with huge benefits, and for that I’m eternally grateful. So, should you hire Tami Bernard as your makeup artist for your wedding (or any other big event)? Yes! You won’t find anyone sweeter, more knowledgeable or more skilled.. that I’m certain of.
An amazing professional! Is prepared with back up plans if the unexpected occurs; was told by all my bridesmaids they were the best makeup and hair they ever had. Highly recommend!...
