Since I got married in a different state then I lived in, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find the right person to do our makeup. The minute I spoke to Amanda Christan on the phone I knew I had to work with her!! I only met her the week before our wedding at her beautiful home for our test run. She made me feel so relaxed (And I needed this with the wedding just days away) and the environment was so peaceful and warm, it was one of my favorite memories of that week. She even had a space for my husband to chill and relax and he loved it too....he didn't want to leave!! Then came the wedding day and Amanda Christan was my saving grace the day of the wedding. It was a bit stressful, but the minute Amanda Christan stepped in she brought a sense of peace and comfort that we all needed. All my bridesmaids loved her as I knew they would. I was a bit of mess because of some hiccups we had with hair that day, but she just kept me grounded and didn't take any of my stress personally and just stayed her calm self and did a beautiful job on all of us. She definitely loves what she does, she takes great pride and care in her work and it shows. I would 100% recommend Amanda Christan to any bride or anyone wanting the best makeup artist, but beyond that the most beautiful person inside and out.

Amanda Christan is not only an experienced, talented and sure-handed make up artist, she also has remarkable ability to connect with people and put them at ease. From the first time we talked on the phone and throughout our trial session Amanda Christan had an uncanny knack for knowing just what I needed and wanted and delivering it with charm, humor and the kind of enthusiasm that comes from doing what you love. She showed the same sensitivity and insight with my mother and my mother in law on the day of my wedding. The atmosphere she created was warm and relaxed. We left for the wedding looking our best and still looking like ourselves. I could not recommend her more highly.

Amanda Christan is truly the most talented makeup artist I have worked with. She did an absolutely AMAZING job on the makeup for my mom and I on my wedding day. Amanda Christan is a beautiful person both inside and out who takes great pride and care in her work and clients. I felt she really took the time to get to know me through our consult so that my makeup reflected who I was. She spent hours to create a look that I was excited and comfortable with. She was so thorough, taking notes and pictures after our consult, which put my mind at ease going into the day of. On my wedding day, I truly felt like a supermodel. I can't stop marveling at my pictures and at how stunning yet natural my makeup came out. A perfect balance of being “done up” without looking or feeling overdone. On top of being incredibly talented, what also sets Amanda Christan apart is her sweet and peaceful yet engaging personality. She makes everyone around her feel comfortable and worked well with the other vendors I had vying for time on my wedding day. It was an absolute joy to have her share the most important day of my life.
