Miriam makes sure that you look and feel the BEST you possibly can on your wedding day. She is perfect for a bride who wants to look like the best version of themselves while still looking natural. My entire wedding was outside and having caked-on makeup was a big concern of mine. I had done airbrush makeup in the past as a bridesmaid and did not like the result. Miriam's skills and technique make sure you look flawless! Miriam even came to my venue with me and touched me up as I had a lot of photos outside before the ceremony.

Overall, Miriam is an artist and she truly loves what she does. When she is doing your hair and makeup she takes all the time she needs and is very detail oriented so that she achieves the look that you want.

Thank you!!!

Miriam is hands down the best out there! Not only is her work AMAZING but she is sweet, funny and a pleasure to work with. My mom LOVED the way she looked, as did the rest of my bridal party. Of course, she made me look best of all (she did exactly as I asked as opposed how other makeup artists would do what they think was best). Love her and her work and would give her ten stars if I could.

Miriam Behar was an absolute angel to work with. After looking at website after website of Miami makeup artists who had photos of brides with crazy eyeshadow and thick eyeliner and bold lips, I was relieved to see Miriam made her brides look naturally beautiful. I'm not one to wear a lot of makeup, so Miriam did a great job making my makeup look natural, but still allowing me to look more "dolled up" than usual. She even included false eyelashes in the price. I NEVER thought I would wear false eyelashes, but her execution and their natural look made me love them (as did my mother, grandmother and several of my bridesmaids who got their hair and makeup done with me). During my hair/makeup trial, Miriam asked me about my skin type, how I usually wear my makeup, my hair, etc. I gave her a few photos of hair and makeup that I liked and she reproduced it perfectly to fit me. I was afraid the look wouldn't be the same on my wedding day, but she did a great job. I'd recommend Miriam and her team to anyone and would definitely use her services again.
