Working with Tiffany was so fun and easy. She did my bridesmaid makeup for my sister-in-law’s wedding and it was truly the only time I loved my wedding makeup, so I of course booke...
d her for my wedding as soon as I got engaged. Tiffany really listened to me during my bridal trial, and I looked exactly how I wanted to look on my wedding day. Everyone in my party said it was the most they've ever loved having their makeup done. Thanks so much, Tiffany!
Tiffany was wonderful to work with for my wedding. I wanted something light and subtle - especially since I have sensitive skin - with references from Lord of the Rings. She comple...
tely understood the vision! She was incredibly organized, and I really appreciated the detailed schedule she put together, which helped everything run smoothly. Tiffany brought creativity, professionalism, and such a fun, positive energy to the day. She made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free, and everyone looked and felt amazing. I highly recommend her to any bride looking for a talented artist who truly cares about making your day special.
I was so happy Tiffany's makeup looks for me, my siblings, and MIL! I wanted a colorful eye look but as someone who doesn't wear a lot of makeup on the day-to-day I was hesitant ab...
out going too bold. She met me at my comfort zone and was very patient with me as I figured out what I wanted haha. And the results speak for themselves! I felt both colorful and beautiful and most importantly true to myself on my wedding day. And lest we forget the INCREDIBLE pigeon-inspired iridescent/smokey looks she pulled off for my two siblings! I can't speak highly enough of her creativity, flexibility, and ability to make her clients feel at ease. Each requested look was so different and she nailed ALL of them! The first two photos are from the amazing www.thegrahamsphotography.com
Tiffany is one of the most creative makeup artists on the internet—I could scroll her page for hours—so I was so honored and thrilled that she was available for my campy Valentine’...
s Day–themed wedding. I truly felt like a celebrity getting my makeup done by her.
Her range is incredible. Whether you’re going for something bold and campy or soft and classic, she can do it all—and do it flawlessly. My friends all wanted completely different looks (from “cartooney” to natural and everything in between), and she absolutely nailed every single one.
Beyond her talent, Tiffany is warm, funny, and so easy to be around. She’s LGBTQIA+ friendly, completely open-minded, and genuinely up for anything. She struck that perfect balance of being focused and professional while still making the whole morning feel fun and relaxed—we were laughing the entire time.
Fair warning: she’s so good, she might make you want to get married all over again.
Tiffany gave my Husband and I the perfect makeup and hair for our elopement in Salem. Consultations were had before hand and she made sure that even though we couldn't have a in pe...
rson trial makeup due to my travels from England, we were very detailed in our call regarding what I was looking for on the day and my usual makeup style.
Tiffany is incredibly knowledgeable and maintains a very professional and hygienic kit with everything needed for the perfect makeup and hairstyle for your day or event.
Perfect Wedding Makeup - 100/10
Tiffany is aboslutely killer, giving me the dark and moody wedding makeup of my dreams! I've never experienced an eyeshadow so seamlessly blended an...
d a full face so perfect! She made the entire process so easy and I was able to relax on the most stressful morning of my life! If you want someone whos just as comfortable doing a full glam look as they are doing a gorgeous bloody eyeliner on Halloween (which she did - almost had me changing my look) - then you need Wicked Makeup!!
Couldn't recommend Tiffany enough! Fantastic communicator, insane talent and such a lovely and warm personality that instantly made me feel comfortable. She's the best!
Tiffany did a great job! She did six makeup applications on the day of the wedding. It was an early morning start and she was so patient with us throughout the day! My makeup staye...
d on throughout the entire evening, even through all the crying, and I didn't end up having to touch up at all. The makeup photographed so well, too!
My wife got her makeup done by Tiffany for our wedding, and it was such an amazing experience. She has a talent for making you feel beautiful and confident on your special day and ...
bringing unique makeup ideas to life. Her kind and sweet nature is definitely an additional bonus, and we couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist.
Do I recommend Tiffany, 1000%
From the first phone call to trial to my actual wedding day, she made me feel comfortable and confident in my choices. I wanted a dark burgundy romant...
ic look with a smoky eye, and she delivered! I was more upset that I had to take it off at the end of the night (I felt like it was artwork). She is so easy to talk to, and if you are a fan of alternative music and life, she embodies the whole vibe. She does so much more than just makeup, and I look forward to working with her again
Tiffany brought our vision to life! Her attention to detail is incredible. Not only did she do a wonderful job with our makeup, but also covered a tattoo of mine beautifully. No on...
e even knew it was there! We were so thankful to have Tiffany there as a part of our day!
Tiffany is fantastic all around: a fantastic person, fantastic artist, and a fantastic energy to have during the wedding morning!
Tiffany was so flexible around all of my differen...
t bridesmaids styles, skin types, and comfort. On my wedding day, I had a range of people getting their makeup done, including those that do a full face everyday and a mother in law that never wore anything but some blush and lipstick. Tiffany made everyone feel comfortable and really found a way to make everyone’s individual personality shine while allowing us to all look cohesive, which is exactly what I wanted.
She was incredibly communicative and helpful leading up to the wedding, including at the trial and in selecting my package. Also, she did some light makeup on my husband to clear up his skin and he felt comfortable and nobody could tell that he was wearing anything.
Also, in terms of application, I think Tiffany may be a wizard. Everyone’s makeup lasted for 12+ hours, but was so easy to take off at the end of the night. Her skill with false eyelashes is top-tier: I couldn’t tell where the fake ones ended and my own started. She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day and I cannot wait to continue to work with her for future events! I cannot recommend Wicked Makeup enough!
Wicked makeup is THE BEST. Tiffany is a true artist and made me and my bridesmaids feel gorgeous on my wedding day. She is so fun to work with, is creative and so professional. I’d...
recommend her to anyone looking to glam for any occasion 😍
Tiffany has been a pleasure to work with since our first call. I put in an inqury on the Knot and was surpised to how quickly she contacted me to set up a call. She was excited to ...
hear about all the unique aspects of our wedding (my bolder than bride normal makeup desires, our masquerade theme). She also took patience and care hearing about my sensitive skin issues. Afer our call not only was I sure Tiffany was the one I wanted to work with, but she put this DIY bride's jitters at ease. Sense then Tiffany worked with me through my two trails to create the most fabuolous wedding look. She was patient and understanding, working me through my conflicting visions as I battled between my Bold and Bridal. By the end of trail two, the vision I had difficulty discribing to her came to life! I was so in love I didnt want to take it off. Wedding day Tiffany was the first one there and ready to go. She was careful to make sure everyone was comfortable in their final looks, especially the Moms and I. My Bridal make-up was a dream come true. A bold and fun eye with a more natural face. I felt so perfectly me, but also special for a special day. The makeup lasted well past the after-party bar closing. It held through my happy tears, hours of dancing, smiling and partying. Tiffany, I can't thank you enough for making my vision a reality and removing the stress from it all!
Tiffany was awesome to work with on my big day! Leading up to that, she was super professional and organized. She was up front about pricing and giving me all the information I nee...

I can’t thank her enough for making us all feel so beautiful and for going above and beyond to accommodate all of us, and our individual styles and needs.
She is a rock star! ❤️
Tiffany is such a great makeup artist to work with for any occasion. I personally had Tiffany as my makeup artist for my wedding. She made me and my wedding party feel and look ama...
zing. She listens to each client and gives them exactly what they envision. My mother was quite nervous getting her makeup done and was thrilled with Tiffany's work. Tiffany is extremely cool on top of her expertise; she is very easy to have a conversation with. She makes you feel comfortable throughout the whole process! My makeup stayed on the whole night beautifully, throughout all the dancing. She is a true artist and can work with anyone and make them feel beautiful. I cannot recommend Tiffany enough; she's the best of the best!
Tiffany was the best makeup artist I could have hoped for for my wedding day! From our very first interaction, she made me feel comfortable and excited for my makeup! When I was re...
searching, she scheduled a call with me to go over her service and answer any questions I had. The booking process was super easy as I was able to do everything online. Tiffany has many packages to choose from and they all offer customizations, so it was easy to find something that worked perfectly for me. I had a great trial, and Tiffany really encouraged me to give feedback and spend a few hours with my makeup on to really get an idea of how I feel so that she could make sure I felt like my best self on the day. On my wedding day, she exceeded my expectations of my desired natural, glowy, peachy look. I also had 7 bridesmaids, which is a lot, and she got everyone's makeup done on time and we were perfectly on schedule throughout the day. Tiffany is an absolute pro. If you are looking a talented makeup artist with great communication and an easy booking process who has the ability to produce 8 beautiful, unique makeup looks in one day, look no further!
I had the absolute pleasure of having Tiffany as my wedding makeup artist, and I couldn't have been happier with the results. From the trial to the big day, her professionalism and...
talent shone through in every aspect of her work.
Tiffany has an incredible eye for detail and a deep understanding of how to enhance natural beauty. She listened carefully to my preferences and created a look that was not only stunning but also perfectly suited to my style. Her skill in color matching and blending is exceptional, and the products she used were high-quality and long-lasting.
On the day of the wedding, Tiffany arrived promptly and worked efficiently, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and on time. My makeup looked flawless all day and night, and I received a ton of compliments!
I highly recommend Tiffany to any bride-to-be or anyone in need of a makeup artist for a special occasion. She truly excels in her craft and has a genuine passion for making her clients look and feel their best!
Tiffany is amazing to work with. I went through two trials before making an appointment with Tiffany and was nervous I was never going to find someone. When I had my trial with Tif...
fany, she was able to bring my dreams to life with such technical skill and precision. I felt like a glamorous fairy on my wedding day!! I had a few others from my wedding have their hair and makeup done by Tiffany and they were constantly astounded all night by saying how good their makeup looked and how many people were complimenting them! Tiffany is great!!!
Tiffany is AMAZING!! I contacted quite a few different vendors when it came to makeup, and they were all very nice and extremely talented. But they didn't feel quite right when I ...
met with them. Completely different experience with Tiffany. She made sure everyone was comfortable and didn't feel pressured at all. I loved how my makeup came out and my girls did too! You will not regret going with Wicked Makeup
Tiffany is fantastic! She was such a joy to work with, she was fun to talk to, but still a professional, and clearly knows her stuff! My makeup turned out amazing, and stayed all d...
ay even through a ton of dancing and sweat! She did our mother's makeup too and knows how to tailor the makeup for different skin types. I am so glad I hired Tiffany, my girls and I felt truly beautiful!
I can't say enough good things about Tiffany Cataldo of Wicked Makeup. Everything from the phone interview, to payment, to prep advice was a breeze. She was so easy to work with, s...
o open to feedback during my hair and makeup trial, responsive to questions, and such a lovely human. How she manages to get up before the sun rises and remain so zen is beyond me. She was the perfect person to do makeup for my alternative, witchy themed wedding. She did individual looks for each of my bridal coven girls, and of course my bridal make up looked absolutely stunning. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Tiffany, for making me the most beautiful bride I could be!
Tiffany was more than amazing. She listened to my requests, kind and amazing at makeup and hair. I’m a pretty shy person but she made me feel comfortable. I would highly recommend...

spray tan for that matter Tiffany was completely gracious. Loved the end result. She also provided make up for the wedding party. Thank you again, Jodi.
Creating for and alongside Tiffany has been the highlight of my photography career. You can easily see Tiffany loves her career as the passion radiates and reflects in her work. In...
credibly creative, very knowledgeable in her craft, energetic and reliable; Tiffany is always ready to make anyone look and feel their best…even if it involves a 2am hike up a steep mountain in the cold! All of my subjects that received services by Tiffany have raved about how incredible they feel; love that. To be honest, Tiffany is the only hair and make up / Permanent tattoo artist I fully trust. Of course having her apply my own wedding hair and make up was a given and a dream! I finally was able to relate to how incredible my subjects feel, and they were so right. Thankful and appreciative for all that Tiffany does. Truly a gift to the industry 🤌🏼
Tiffany was absolutely wonderful to work with. She understood exactly what I was looking for and delivered for each and every one of the women in my party. My makeup was so well do...
ne, it was still in tact the following day (because yes I fell asleep without washing my face). Not only that, but she is extremely kind and laid back, which was a HUGELY appreciated by our group. I highly recommend Wicked Makeup for your wedding day look, you will not be disappointed! Thanks, again, Tiffany!!
Tiffany was an angel to work with from start to finish and truly goes the extra mile. During the trial she was very detail oriented & clarified the exact look I was going for-and s...
he completely nailed it! I was worried b/c my friends & mom don't wear much makeup and some had very bad experiences with prof. makeup in the past. I had NOTHING to worry about because Tiffany made us all feel and look so beautiful and comfortable the day of my wedding. The incredible airbrush makeup and magic eyelashes stayed put through ceremony tears and all night on the dance floor. I can't recommend Tiffany enough for your wedding and I'm so grateful to have worked with her!
Tiffany did my makeup for my wedding in December, as well for my two sisters and mom. Incredible job, we couldn’t be happier! Tiffany us professional, punctual and so so talented! ...
It was LITERALLY storming during our couples shoot and my makeup held up so beautifully. I had nonstop compliments. I highly recommend her to anyone! She made my vision come to life! So happy to have found her! Highly recommend!
Tiffany is a dream to work with. I was so happy with my look on my wedding day.
Amazing!! Tiffany and her assistant were hands down the best vendor I hired for my wedding. Not only did l love my look but it held up all night long! The whole time they were ther...
e with us getting us ready they were friendly, fun, professional, and accommodating. The skin prep before getting the makeup done was like heaven. I would rate more stars if I could. Talented, punctual, great customer service, and great pricing. She even left me with lipstick to touch myself up with from the color she mixed just for me. I even had enough to take some on my honeymoon and wear for our candlelit dinner on the beach. (She also gave me some makeup wipes and a spray.) Could not recommend her more, really made the whole getting ready process an enjoyable experience!
Working with Tiffany was the best - her prices were extremely affordable (especially for a Boston wedding), her communication was clear and timely, and she was able to come up with...
fantastic looks for all five of us with not a ton of guidance. I've never looked as good as I did on my wedding day thanks to Tiffany at Wicked Makeup! She was a pleasure to work with before and during my wedding, and I would absolutely recommend her to everyone who wants a great look for any event. 10/10 would book again!
Tiffany is amazing! She really took the time to listen and create my dream wedding day look with me. Her makeup was perfect for all day wear on my face (I have more oily skin). She...

There aren't enough words to say how fantastic Tiffany was! I was late to the makeup party, and Tiffany had an opening for the day of my wedding. She was very informative in our fi...
rst phone call and was super nice about everything. Meeting her for our trial was great! She took everything I said and showed her and made my vision come to life! Leaving that day no one even noticed I had my makeup done which was what I was looking for! On the day of Tiffany was so great! My bridal party was pretty chaotic, and she navigated through flawlessly. Even staying to make sure when I opened one gift and started crying that my makeup still looked as fantastic as when she finished it. I received so many compliments on it that night! If there is ever a time I need my makeup done again I will absolutely be reaching out to Tiffany!
Tiffany is amazing! She was so easy to work with, so professional and fun, and really took the time to understand my vision of how I wanted to look on the big day. I felt so beau...
tiful and I know my wedding party did too. Morning weddings are EARLY and she showed up so happy and ready. Highly recommend her services!
Tiffany was awesome! I flew in for my wedding, which was at my parent's house in Jefferson, NH. She did my makeup trial the week of the wedding, which was such a nice way to get t...
o know her and have frank conversation pre-wedding day. My mom, who typically doesn't wear makeup, LOVED her makeup. She even wore fake eyelashes. My sister in laws looked stunning. Our day started at 1130 and ended at midnight. I'm not lying when I say all of our makeup looked fresh for the entire day.

ectly! She listened to everything I wanted and elevated it to make my wedding day look picture perfect. I got so many compliments on how I looked and she knows to how match all kinds of skin tones. Tiffany did not disappoint and she will be my first call on any and all future events I need a makeup artist for!!
Tiffany did my makeup for my fall wedding as well as all the bridesmaids- 8 of us total! She was very professional and communication was great throughout the process. I was put tot...
ally at ease by her commitment to Covid protocols, which was refreshing after having to postpone our wedding but still it ended up being during Delta. I had a few modifications I wanted to make from my trial and she was able to make me look just like I wanted- more glamorous than my every day but still looking like me! My friends loved their makeup as well as she was sensitive to who wanted light vs heavier makeup. Would highly recommend Tiffany!
Tiffany was so easy to work with, reasonably priced and an overall good person. She helped bring my old Hollywood glam look to reality. She's a busy woman- make sure to take photos...
at your trial to recall what it is you liked, disliked etc and what you would like to reference for the big day. Trust me, when you're in the chair everything you thought to say goes out the window as you sit in all those pre-wedding jitters.

Tiffany was awesome! She has a great energy which makes her so nice to be around. She listened to my vision and she delivered! She made the trial process super easy and worked with...
me so patiently, as I was an out-of-town bride. I felt absolutely beautiful. Even more importantly, she really listened to what my bridesmaids wanted for their makeup looks. Everyone had a different comfort level with makeup and she was able to adjust and accommodate to everyone’s taste. And she was early!! I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Tiffany!!
Tiffany is a great makeup artist and a fabulous person. She did a great job listening to my vision for the makeup and hair and executed it perfectly so that it looked natural but a...
lso flawless. She was by far the most responsive and flexible makeup artist that I contacted and has an excellent online system for communication. My maid of honor has a more funky style and she did an amazing job making her makeup both perfect for a wedding and also matching her unique personality. Thanks Tiffany!
Tiffany is a fantastic makeup artist, and I am so glad I found her for my 12/18 wedding! I had 7 bridesmaids, 2 moms, myself and a very tight timeline for makeup. Tiffany's executi...
on for each member of my bridal party was flawless and timely! Tiffany was very flexible and was even willing to stay late to perform touch ups throughout the afternoon. Tiffany also helped me to find a fantastic hair stylist for my bridesmaids which alleviated so much stress. I would highly recommend Tiffany to anyone looking for a calm, talented, and professional makeup artist for their wedding or other important event.
Tiffany was incredible to work with. She listened to my vision for the day and for what each of my bridesmaids wanted to ensure that everyone felt comfortable and beautiful. Her ta...
lent shows in the photos as each woman glows and no one looks uncomfortable. She even created the timeline that I used to create our run of show for the day to ensure that everyone's makeup was done on time! Tiffany was so easy to talk to and work with, I could not recommend her more!
I’ve known Tiffany for years it was a no-brainer to pick her to do my wedding make up, not because I’ve known her for years but because she’s my go to for when I need to have my ma...
ke up done so I look like a flawless goddess. She’s done my close friends bridal makeup, my engagement makeup and now my wedding makeup and never disappoints!! Her work is stunning, she listens to what your wants and worries are, and delivers exactly what you have pictured.
I chose Tiffany for my makeup artist for a reason that most brides wouldn't think to consider for their wedding day - it wasn't for her obvious expertise with bridal looks, but rat...
her because of her demonstrated control and understanding of makeup that is seen in her more dramatic looks (the Halloween makeup she does is unreal). Beyond her ridiculous talent, Tiffany was just a joy of a human to work with. She is so kind and understanding and is so clearly passionate about her work.
I opted for a soft glam bridal look for my wedding day and Tiffany DELIVERED. I keep telling everyone that I have never felt so beautiful in my life than I did on my wedding day, and I think that's how every single bride should feel on their day.
Needless to say, 13/10 would recommend. Thank you Tiffany!!!
Tiffany did such an amazing job! I started not knowing any technical makeup terms and not knowing how to communicate what I wanted and somehow she still figured out exactly what I...
meant and made me look PERFECT for my wedding day! I will literally never look as beautiful as I did that day thanks to her and her magical abilities.
