Once Upon a Time...

Tara Fontana had a passion for special event hair and makeup. She was working in the salon, living for wedding and prom clients. How could she do more of this?

In 2003, she started her own company, Fairytale Hair and Makeup. She built a website, started advertising, and got a booth at a bridal show. The response was overwhelming.

There was no way she could handle all the demand on her own, so Tara started searching for other artists with the same passion and talent. Slowly but surely Fairytale grew.

Next Came Disney....

With a passion for everything Disney and a name like Fairytale, a major goal was to work with Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings.

They gave us a chance in 2006 and the rest is history. With so much success at Disneyland weddings, we expanded to Central Florida to work with Disney World.

Disney World Weddings contacted Disneyland Weddings and after hearing much praise we were added to the list of preferred vendors for Disney World in 2011.

Then There Was David Tutera…

Tara was sitting at home watching My Fair Wedding with David Tutera just like most wedding obsessed girls. She noticed the hair and makeup on some of the episodes and, well, wasn’t very impressed. She thought, “We need to do that!” Tara contacted the production company.

We were thrilled to be featured on the show in 2011 on Season 3 episode 11, “Belly Dancer Bride”, where we did the hair only. We were then asked to come back for the next season.

We did hair and makeup for five episodes. David liked us so much that he refers us to his own personal clients.
