About

"It's all in the timing!" Which is why the smart brides choose Filis Forman & Co., not just for her talent as a makeup artist/hairstylist, but as a beauty coordinator as well. Her brides look as if they just stepped off the pages of a magazine (which is where most of her work appears).

Filis takes charge of arranging the bridal room schedule and may also arrange everything from having your makeup and hair done for the bride alone or for very large bridal parties , prepping your clothing (steam or iron), getting you dressed, dealing with those last minute emergencies, and providing other services. Not only that, she never leaves your side until you walk into the dining room.

When it comes to keeping your hair and makeup looking smooth and flawless all night, you need the cosmetics with professional staying -power.You'll find they also come in handy for other marathon evenings.

Being able to improvise when something goes awry at the last minut is a skill that we've perfected after many years of experience. Most importantly, we love what we do!

Amazing experience again!

I am so glad I was able to re-connect with Filis to do my make-up for my son's wedding! She did my wedding 36 years ago. I am only sorry I hadn't re-connected earlier for my other son's wedding. She traveled to Boston for the wedding and did 4 generations of women. In addition to my makeup and hair, my daughter in-laws make up and hair, my 88 year old mother in-laws make up and my 6 year old granddaughter's hair and we all looked amazing! Filis is part of our family now. She stayed until we walked into the reception touching up lipstick,and blush as needed or just moving a piece of hair during pictures. Pictures were amazing!

Amazing Make-up Artistry

Filis is a talented artist. Filis takes “ordinary” and transform it to amazing. Sit back and let Filis take charge. She has an incredible eye for color, a light touch and creates a dramatic look that is natural and beautiful. I’ve used Filis for my wedding and then many years later for my daughter’s wedding. The compliments I received at the weddings were sincere. You know you look good when your kids say “wow”. Filis listens and works with you. I highly recommend Filis. I let her create magic using my face as her canvas. Love her work.

I cannot say enough great things about Filis and her work, as she did a fantastic job making us look and feel beautiful for my June wedding. She did complete makeup looks for me, my mother, my aunt, and my mother-in-law, as well as lending a helping hand to my bridesmaids who were getting ready with us. Each of our make up was customized to our coloring and style preferences perfectly, enhancing our natural features, and making us feel comfortably fabulous. Her style of makeup was always fresh, never heavy or overpowering, yet still glamorous, and somehow managing to cover flawlessly and stay put all day and night despite the Tennessee heat and humidity. My mother has very sensitive skin, and has never been able to wear mascara due to it running, but she had no problems with any of the products Filis used. Filis was flexible in our day of scheduling, and offered brilliant insight when planning our wedding, in so many areas other than just makeup! I would highly recommend Filis for any of your beauty coordinating needs-- If you let her know what your goal is, she will do everything in her power to help you reach it!

OMG. We all loved Filis and her crew. She brought another make-up artist, two
hairdressers, and a wardrobe specialist. We didn't know what the wardrobe person,
Kathleen, was going to do, but afterwards, we realized how important her contribution
was toward helping us all look our best. As for Filis, she's a miracle worker. None
of us ever looked more beautiful than on that day, and there were fourteen women
who had their hair and makeup done. I've already recommended her to other
brides, who have booked her. She's expensive, but worth it. She has so much
experience, and she's even done makeup for movies. The photographs prove
that we really looked as beautiful as we felt!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
