    Best beauty decision of my wedding day

    Choosing Tara was one of the absolute best decisions I made for my wedding day! She listed to exactly what I wanted and I felt like myself all day. It was the lightest professional makeup I’ve ever worn- looked so elegant and my skin looked perfect and yet I didn’t even feel like I was wearing anything. She was so easy to work with- and felt like having a friend there on my wedding. She calmed me down when things were stressful in the morning (things that had nothing to do with makeup!) and I’d choose her again in a heartbeat. Thanks Tara ❤️

    The best mua a bride can ask for!

    I am so happy with how my hair and makeup turned out for my wedding! I used Tara for both my engagement photos and wedding day, and her and her team were incredibly accommodating and professional. Despite my group of ladies (especially my mom) being quite a handful, they made sure everyone was happy with their look. I would definitely recommend Tara and her team for your hair and makeup needs. She is by far the best!

    The BEST around

    I cannot speak more highly about working with Tara Gervacio Beauty. Aside from just being an insanely talented hair and makeup artist, as a vendor, Tara was incredibly responsive, collaborative, transparent and clear about the investment, and was also just an all around lovely person to be around.

    She absolutely nailed my look at my wedding trial, and then when my wedding day came, the team that Tara brought (Amy and Kaylyn) were an absolute dream team to work with. They were all incredibly professional, showed up on-time, and brought amazing, positive, and calming vibes to the bridal suite. They were the exact kind of people you want around on the morning of your wedding. Best of all? My mom, my mother in law, and all of my bridesmaids absolutely LOVED their hair and makeup (which I find rare — usually at least one person walks away unsatisfied!).

    If the vibe you’re looking for on your wedding day is soft natural glam, PLEASE book Tara Gervacio Beauty. You won't regret it! Truly it was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding.

    Yes Yes Yes!!!

    Tara was my wedding hair and makeup artist last August 5th. I found her through The Knot and I checked out her instagram account and was just amazed by her work. Everyone in her bridal instagram page is beautiful and I knew right away she’s my one! :)
    Tara has all the characteristics of a great artist any bride would want for their most special day. I decided not to have a hair and makeup trial. But I kinda felt bad and anxious that Im not going to have the look that I would like for my wedding. Instead of telling me I should have one, she told me it was okay and that she can meet me on FaceTime first. That instantly made me feel better, knowing that she cared and I never felt any pressure from her on purchasing a trial service. So, we met on FaceTime couple months before the wedding. She’s very friendly, nice, and very approachable! She’s like a sister and a friend. She listened to every little thing I said, my concerns, my likes, dislikes etc. She answered all my questions. She made me very comfortable right away. She helped me a lot throughout the process of preparation, like choosing the right color of hair extensions, whats the right length, where to get them etc. (first time to use them)
    She’s very good in communicating as well, whether I send her a text message or insta message, she responds quickly and answers all questions I have.

    Wedding day: she arrived on time. She sticked with the timing plan and finished on time. She brought and used nice and fancy makeup brands. She listened to my mother in law and my mom’s request for their hair and makeup. They both looked amazing too. I also loved my dewy, simple makeup look! And my high ponytail look. I wanted something different and not too common bridal look and she made me feel really beautiful:) Tara was very professional and approachable. I highly recommend her! Couldn’t thank her enough for making me look and feel beautiful on my wedding day 🥰

    Thank you!

    I cannot thank Tara enough! She is attentive, communicative, and so talented. The trial was a breeze and had me feeling confident going into my wedding day. It was mom’s first time ever getting her makeup and hair done and she looked gorgeous. We wanted a more natural glam look and Tara nailed it! The morning of the wedding was CHAOS. Thankfully, I knew exactly what to expect with hair and makeup. Tara is extremely organized and has a calming energy, which was extremely appreciated. Thank you for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day

    Bridal Beauty Extraordinaire

    Tara is an incredibly talented wedding makeup and hair artist who made me look and feel like an absolute dream on my special day. Her expertise and artistry transformed me into the best version of myself, and I couldn't be more grateful for her and how she made me feel on the best day of my life!

    From the moment we met, she took the time to truly understand my vision and style, and then worked her magic to create a look that was even more breathtaking than I had imagined. She is a true artist and master of her craft as every brushstroke and every curl was executed flawlessly.

    Tara also has the most wonderful personality and she always instantly put me at ease. Wedding days can be nerve-wracking, but her calming presence made the entire getting-ready process enjoyable and stress-free. She arrived on time, fully prepared, and managed to create stunning looks for not only me but also my bridal party within the given time frame.

    When I saw the final result in the mirror, I was absolutely blown away. I felt like a true princess, and the confidence she instilled in me radiated throughout the entire day. Our wedding photos turned out absolutely stunning, thanks in large part to her incredible work. Tara stayed with me throughout the day to ensure my makeup and hairstyle remained flawless, she was so attentive and always by my side making sure I looked my best as I danced and celebrated without a worry in the world.

    I truly can't recommend Tara enough, if you're looking for an artist who will make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself on your wedding day, look no further! She is an absolute gem in the world of bridal beauty, and I'm beyond grateful to have had her be a part of my special day :)

    A soft/natural glam expert

    Tara is an expert in “soft glam” and creating natural yet elevated looks. Even with all the makeup, I was still able to recognize myself in the mirror! She is made me feel at ease and was very easy to work with. I appreciate her patience and assistance with finalizing the final look. Her attention to detail is next level! Not only is she talented but she’s also committed to keeping a clean, organized, and very sanitary work space. I highly recommend Tara!

    One of my favorite vendors !

    I had the best experience with Tara. She was my main makeup artist at my August 2022 wedding. I met her for a trial in May and immediately knew she’d be a great person to work with. She really took the time to ask important questions about what I wanted, she understood my vision, and executed it perfectly. She was also super responsive and helpful in the run up to the wedding in suggestions for product in general for day to day things (like what sunscreen should my husband wear on the day to prevent completely sunburned faces). I would wholeheartedly recommend Tara!

    Tara is everything you're looking for in a MUA.

    I came into the wedding hair/makeup experience skeptical because I wear little-to-no makeup in the day to day and I wanted to be sure to feel like myself on my big day. Tara listened closely to my reservations and committed herself to helping me curate just the right bridal look--elevated, but still ME. She helped me sort through inspo pictures, advised on what would and wouldn't work for my face and coloring, spent extra time with me during the trial to make sure we learned everything we needed to learn from that practice round, and came back on the big day with an even more polished look which ended up being PERFECT. And, all while devoting so much attention to me, she and her team still made the rest of my wedding party feel seen, listened to, pampered, and beautiful by the time they stood up out of the chair. Not to mention that everyone's looks suited them perfectly and lasted all night. 10/10 is not enough!

    Relaxing part of the wedding experience

    With all the chaotic aspects of planning a wedding, working with Tara was such a BREEZE. She takes your ideas and goes above and beyond to achieve your look. During my trial and wedding, she made me look like me but better ;) Would love to work with her again!

    Had a High-Impact but Low-Maintenance Look That Lasted All Night

    Tara and her team did an AMAZING job! Tara killed the trial and was super in helping me figure out the most high-impact but low-maintenance look for me. I get VERY sweaty and was really worried about sweating off my face and hair. The suggestions and recommendations Tara made to my initial vision produced the EXACT result I was looking for and the look did not budge from the moment she finished to the moment I wiped it all off at the end of the night. All f the products she used were super high quality and made my skin feel great. Additionally, her team was FABULOUS! They did an AMAZING job on prepping the skin (it felt like a facial!) to the flawless hair and makeup on the bridal party. My best friend said she’s never felt more beautiful and she HATES makeup and getting dressed up, so I consider this the highest compliment. Not to mention Emma spoke Spanish and was able to communicate with my family - that was invaluable to my sanity! 🙃

    Thank you Tara, Johnathan, and Emma for stellar work

    Tara made my wedding day Makeup vibes come true with such ease. I couldn’t have been more pleased and it will forever be my favorite makeup look ever!

    Not only was my makeup the best it’s ever looked, but i still felt and looked liked myself which was so important to me. She beyond delivered that bridal glow everyone talks about and has the lightest touch as well. Tara is punctual, listens and only uses the best of the best makeup.
    She takes her time to make you feel pampered and special, but is also flexible ( I was running late day of my wedding and she rallied and worked with me to deliver the perfect makeup look created from our trial and she knocked it out of the park without sacrificing any of the look and still somehow not making it seem like she was rushing.) I could write on and on about my wonderful experience with Tara but to sum it up, if you want professional, talented, priceless. Look no further, you have found your girl.

    The greatest

    Tara did an incredible job with my hair and makeup for my wedding in October. I wanted my makeup to be natural and soft. It was exactly what I was looking for and it looked incredible. Her team was also wonderful. They did hair and makeup from my bridal party and everyone looked great. Tara was extremely professional, flexible, and such a calm force during what could have been a stressful morning. I recommend her services to any bride that desires to look their best on their wedding day. Looking forward to use her services again for other special events!

    I was the bride and Tara did my makeup and hair

    Tara is absolutely amazing!!! I’ve never felt so beautiful than I did on my wedding day. 6 months later and I still look back at the pictures and hush over how pretty I felt. She and her team made the day so fun and so easy. All my bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning and still rave about Tara’s work! She made it easy and created the schedule for me and was so accommodating when we had to change the schedule a few times. I highly recommend Tara not only for her incredible work but her kindness, organization, and professionalism! I cannot wait until the next event so I can use her again!! Book Tara and her team. You will not regret it!

    Makeup & Hair Review


    I’ve had the pleasure of working with Tara a couple of times now. She offers both hair styling and makeup services and I can truly say her work is phenomenal.

    A lot of makeup artist repeat them same look person to person whereas Taras glam is unique to each client. She asks questions based on your skin type, what kind of look your going for, how you normally wear your makeup to create such an amazing look to fit YOU. She really tailors her work to each person to perfection and that’s what’s true talent is in an artist.

    Another important point to make is My makeup and hair lasted all night through sweat and dancing!

    And lastly, I cannot stress this enough - it’s not just the artist’s work, it’s their vibe. On top of Tara being extremely talented she emits such a positive energy. She is kind and lighthearted and is CALMING! This is KEY to your wedding day when you have so many other stressors to navigate on your big day . I cannot recommend her work enough!

    I looked more beautiful than I ever imagined

    I let Tara pick my look for my son's wedding and I couldn't have been happier. I am 55 and she made me look appropriate and lovely. Best of all my hair and makeup lasted all night!! Tara has a kind and gentle approach that calmed my nerves. Thank you Tara for making me look more beautiful than I ever imagined!

    Best in the Game

    You won't find another hair and makeup artist who is as talented, thoughtful, and precise. I wanted a modern 60's look that didn't have an exact photo to work form and Tara pulled it off with the utmost of professionalism and artistry. She worked with me to plan everything out, thought through what my day would be like and made sure I was flawless for every aspect of my wedding (up until my 3am karaoke after party). Tara is also an incredibly soothing person to work with, perfect for when you're getting ready for an intense, emotional event! 10/10!

    Talented, professional, and a delight to work with

    Tara (and her associate Amy) did hair & makeup for myself and my bridesmaids. Tara is talented, professional, punctual and so easy to work with! I did a bridal trial and immediately knew I wanted to hire her. She does a wide range of make-up styles, from soft natural, romantic, classic, to full glam and editorial. She listens to your specific requests and also provides her professional input. I wanted a soft natural look and she nailed it. My bridesmaids also loved their hair & makeup. Tara worked with me to create the schedule, and we ran on time. She and her associate Amy traveled to my wedding venue (for an early start time!) and they arrived on time. Tara prepped my face and also gave me some makeup for touch ups. My hair and makeup lasted all day, even in 90 degree humid weather. She also maintained hygiene and safety measures during our COVID wedding. I highly recommend her for your special occasion!

    Amazing make-up artist!

    Tara is amazing!!! I truly believe that she is one of the best makeup artist I have seen. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable. Not only did she make my makeup and skin look flawless, but she also truly put in her effort, care, and heart into her craft. Furthermore, she is easy to communicate with and very responsive. Her work was truly flawless! I would absolutely recommend without any hesitation!

    Tara Gervacio Beauty's reply:

    Thank you, Priscilla for the kind words! I had a blast getting to know you during our trial and leading up to the big day. You were so lovely and I’m so happy we were able to work together!

    The best you’ll look and feel !

    My everyday makeup look is minimal to none so glamming for my wedding day was exciting but I still wanted to feel natural. Tara works with you from start to finish. The consultation and trial experience put me at ease and she her style really highlights your natural features. Her experience in the industry really shows and her expertise in hair and makeup is apparent in her advice and guidance about what works/looks good. My skin looked dewy, even and smooth (I hate that caked on over contoured look!). My hair (I opted for a sleek updo) and makeup lasted all day including an after party jump in the pool!!! Tara is a true professional, calm and focused for that pre wedding chaos, and she really cares for her clients. I couldn’t recommend her more!

    Incredible!!!

    Wow Tara and her team were INCREDIBLE to work with! I’m so lucky she was available to do my wedding hair & makeup because I’ve never felt more beautiful. They were punctual, professional, and so kind. I wasn’t able to have a trial, but Tara was able to make me look even better than I could have ever imagined! She’s so talented and gave me her expert recommendations when I was unsure of what I wanted. My hair & makeup lasted all day & night without any touch ups. All of my bridesmaids LOVED how they looked, as well as my mom & MIL. They all told me how they have never received so many compliments in their life! I HIGHLY recommend booking Tara and her team!!!! So very thankful for them!

    One-Woman Wedding Glam Squad

    Tara was my one-woman glam squad for my wedding. She did both my hair and makeup beautifully for my big day. We met beforehand to do a trial to ensure she was prepared to execute flawlessly. We discussed my ideas and she made recommendations that ultimately was the perfect look for me. Dramatic, yet subtle and romantic. Would highly recommend her for anything from weddings to high fashion photo shoots as she is versatile adapting to a large range of looks.

    Hair and Makeup artist

    Tara is absolutely fantastic! She is so talented in both hair and make-up, but also kinda and thoughtful— giving me a little touch up kit to bring with me as well as some small gifts to celebrate my wedding. My mother and grandmother both looked beautiful and I felt like a natural but enhanced version of myself. My wedding was this July in NYC in 80+ degree heat and both my hair and makeup lasted through the whole day! Thank you so so much Tara!
