Art Occasions

Nancy perfectly replicated the hairstyle in the photograph I gave her and made it stay up the entire night (48 pins!) through swing dancing and aerials! Would absolutely recommend her talents with hair!

Rachanee is very friendly person and very helpful. I chose to have different style of make-up on the wedding day. She listened to every little requests that I had and gave me the look that I wanted. She is amazing artist!

Rachanee is a consumate professional, and made what can be a stressful day (getting married) for many very comfortable and relaxing. My photographer commented that my make up was flawless.Rachanee worked with me on the type of look I wanted to achieve and she delivered and exceeded my expectations.I would certainly use Rachanee again in the future for special occassions.Very pleased with the outcome.

Rachanee made my wedding day experience wonderful. I had been going to her for my pre-wedding trials for hair/make-up. She was very helpful and knowledgeable about my needs for my day. On the actual day of, she knew that with so many women to work on (6 bridesmaids and 1 mother-in-law) that she would need back-up. There were two other assistants to help with hair and make-up. My bridesmaids looked gorgeous and the experience was fun. My mother saw how beautiful the women looked and ended up getting her make-up done as well! My make-up felt light on my skin and was "just right" on the color. My hair had gone through some changes from curls to a twist on the day of. The style was simple, yet modern and elegant at the same time. It ended up feeling like me and not like other styles I always saw at weddings/magazines. Rachanee worked hard to work with our schedule in time/location. It was an experience that every woman getting married should have.

Rachanee did a great job on hair and make up for my wedding. It stayed beautiful until the night ended. I would definitely recommend her and book her again for the next special occasion.

Rachanee has done a great job for designing my wedding hairstyle as well as makeup. I am so glad that I have chosen her. She was very professional and focused. She pays attention to details. I have received so many nice compliments about my hair-dos and make up that day. I definitely recommend her!

Rachanee was wonderful to work with - I would highly recommend her! I chose her to work on my hair and make-up for my wedding in June 2009. I actually ended up doing a few trials with her because I was indecisive on hair styles. She was very patient with me and very accommodating to my schedule and requests. On the day of the wedding, her work was even better than the trial and she spent a lot of time making sure that I liked the makeup and hair. My husband felt it looked very natural and loved it, which was a great compliment since he generally likes me without any makeup at all. I received a lot of compliments and never felt better!I also asked her to do my bridesmaids' hair. She brought an assistant with her the day of because I had 6 bridesmaids. I was a bit anxious about her assistant because I had never met her prior or seen her work. However, they both did a wonderful job and my bridesmaids' hair looked amazing! In fact, my cousin has hair that never keeps their curls, but somehow Rachanee and her assistant made it so that her curls actually stayed the whole night! I was truly amazed! :)

I absolutely loved RachaneeÂ’s work on my hair and make-up (bridesmaid) and my best friendÂ’s hair (bride) and make-up for my friendÂ’s wedding. Rachanee is patient and sweet and genuinely listens to what you want to look like. It was so nice to have a hair and make-up artist that was friendly and calm on the big day. She was able to perfectly recreate a hairstyle I picked out from a magazine and she adjusted the brideÂ’s hair until it was EXACTLY what she wanted. Our makeup looked natural and not overdone. She did a great job managing time and getting both of us ready to go with hair and make-up done just in time to take pre-wedding pictures. I highly recommend Rachanee to anyone, particularly brides and bridal parties. Having Rachanee around will add to your day and you will look completely beautiful! Thanks Rachanee!!

I had to plan my bay area wedding from Los Angeles so had to select out of town vendors purely from recommendations on the web! It was a little nerve wracking, but it turned out so well! Rachanee met with me in my hotel room just 2 days before the wedding for my trial run (only time that worked for me!). I gave her pretty vague instructions--pretty, natural-medium makeup that covers/lasts all day and a soft up-do hairstyle. She showed me some pictures from her books/magazines to find things I liked and then ran with it! It turned out so great! On the day of the wedding she met in my hotel room and got me and my maid of honor ready in plenty of time...she really did a fantastic job on both of us. We got so many compliments and felt great all night. We didn't have to touch up our makeup once! I highly recommend Rachanee and Art Occasions for their wonderful work!

Ratchanee is a great hair and make up artist! She listens to you and gives you some choices suiting your styles. She will make sure that you walk out the door with your beautiful smile. I usually have a hard time finding a perfect style that goes with my round face, but she helps me with her experience and wouldn't stop trying different style until you are happy. I love the way she looks after every single things through my hair and make up. I would say, let's try her! she's perfect!

I HIGHLY recommend Art Occasions for bridal hair and make-up, hence the 5 stars! Rachanee and her team are personable and professional. I never had to worry about them and, unlike some of the diva-esque vendors we had, they were great to work with! Rachanee is very focused when at work and she has a great eye. You'll absolutely look your best when she's done.

I just had my wedding and I was very happy with working with her all the time.She does listen to you and respect your style.My first trial went OK, but I was not really happy about the bumps on my cheek from rubbing air blush. So I told her which I don't like about and I asked her to do the air blush different way on my wedding day. Then she offered me a second trial just for foundation. It was better than first time, but my all facial hair caught the air blush. She suggested me a threading. So I did, it was amazing how things worked out.Also I got so many compliments about my wedding hair. Everyone liked it and of course I loved it too.Rachanee is very easy to work with and very quick response too!

Rachanee and her team were awesome. She's so accommodating and such a sweetheart. She knows how to make you look and feel beautiful. I had so many comments that my makeup was amazing, that my natural features were beautifully enhanced. Despite some miscommunication with the wedding coordinator on my big day, she still remained a sweetheart and calmed my nerves when I was starting to feel the bridezilla in me come out when things were going as planned. She was one of the highlights of my wedding and I could not be happier. She's just perfect. I'm so happy I found her.My bridesmaids makeup and hair were done by her team, Nancy and Dzime, who were awesome too. The girls looked so beautiful and glamorous. I was just amazed at how wonderful and perfect everything turned out. Just really happy overall.

Rachanee at Art Occassions is the sweetest vendor you will ever meet. She is extremely flexible, a great value, and VERY talented. I first did a make up and hair trial. Definitely do the trial if you want to decide on your perfect look. Rachanee did my hair and makeup in several ways, took photos for me, and then I was able to decide which I liked the best. All the looks were natural and beautiful - it was difficult to choose!On the wedding day, Rachanee came with one assistant. They were able to do hair for 5 bridesmaids, hair and makeup for the mother of the bride and mother of the groom, and hair and makeup for the bride. We actually were ready earlier than planned, so we girls were able to relax and drink champagne before the wedding. Everyone was extremely happy with their hair and makeup. One of my bridesmaids (who had recently gotten married) commented that she wished Rachanee had been there to do bridal hair at her wedding because she liked her hair so much better.If that's not good enough, at the end of the whole, long, wedding night, with lots of dancing, all of our hair and makeup still looked fresh and perfect. My wedding coordinator couldn't believe how great everyone looked. We didn't need a touch up all night (besides some lip gloss after dinner).Thank you to Rachanee. I highly recommend her to all brides!

Rachanee did my bridal hair and makeup and she did a fantastic job! My makeup looked beautiful and felt very natural. I was worried that I would need some touch-ups, but even after a 12 hour day, no touch-ups necessary! My hair was pinned up in long curls, and the curls stayed in place all day, despite it being a very windy day. At the end of the night, my hair was still neat and tidy. Looking back at photos, I am extremely happy with the end result. I never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day, and it was all thanks to Rachanee. Not only is she talented, she is also a pleasure to work with. She is very professional, patient, and pays attention to your inputs. I highly recommend Rachanee to anyone!

My wedding coordinator recommended Rachanee to me when I was looking for a hair/make up artist. I went in for my trial and shared with her my vision of what I wanted to look like for my wedding day. Rachanee totally understood my ideas and spent a good deal of time on my hair/makeup during the trial. On the day of my wedding, she brought an assistant to help with my BM�s hair and make up. They both worked very hard and got everyone done in a timely manner. Throughout the day, everyone complimented me on how elegant I looked. Also, my hair was in place for the whole day. There was not a single strand of hair out of place!Rachanee is not only a skilled artist, she is a warm and kind person. On the day of, you want to surround yourself with people who will keep you calm and positive � Rachanee did just that for me. She�s extremely professional and personal. You will not be disappointed.
