responsive to all of my needs & questions. We were a little stressed on the day of and Tanya kept us in good spirits by remaining calm and helping out & being flexible. Our make up was amazing, I also had her install tape - in's which though I've never worn extensions but I figured for my wedding day I should go all out. I was in love with them and wish I could have kept them in forever. My whole experience with her was worth every penny. She also provided a cute touch up kit which although I didn't need on my wedding day he came in hand for my honeymoon. I would definitely recommend booking her for your big day. I wouldn't do a thing differently!

a bridal party of women with different ethnicities I wanted a make up artist and hairstylist that had experience working on different hair textures and skin tones. What I appreciated most was that Tanya took time before the wedding and during my bridal trial to understand the look that I was going for and then personalized it to really work for me and each of the other ladies so that everyone looked beautiful! As a bonus, Tanya Works closely with my planner on a getting ready schedule And finish the entire bridal party right on time... Even with one of my ladies running late! She is super friendly and professional and I am just so thankful that she was one of the vendors I picked... Thank you for making my day even more fabulous!

skill set was above and beyond any other MUA. I had a destination wedding and she arrive 30 minutes early (eased my nerves on timing). I was a ball of emotions but she was extremely professional and accommodating while being genuinely personable. Myself and my bridal party were stunning and received many compliments! I have already recommended her to friends and family.
