Dream team!!! Highly recommend!

Wow what an AMAZING experience! Hiring MakeMeUpRI for my wedding day was the easiest and best decision I made! Christina was extremely responsive and professional from the very start! She answered all of my questions and made the booking process so easy! She also put together a wedding day schedule to use as a guide to keep everyone on track! She is so organized and because of this the day of my wedding ran so smoothly! She was not available for my wedding day but her amazing team was! I had Fatima, Samantha, Shelby and Jessica! They made me and all of my bridesmaids feel like supermodels! Shelby and Fatima did my hair and makeup and I have never felt more beautiful! Everyone was sooo happy and loved their looks! I even had several guests comment on how everyone looked gorgeous and I have already referred 2 friends to them for their weddings! I can't thank MakeMeUpRI and her team enough!

5/5 stars!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I cannot recommend MakeMeUp enough! I had my makeup done by the team. Christina was so communicative and helpful from my first inquiry through the wedding day.

I had my makeup done by Marissa. She was absolutely amazing from start to finish and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. My makeup was exactly what I had envisioned, and it lasted flawlessly throughout the entire day and night. She created such a calm, relaxing environment while I was getting ready, which made such a difference on a day that can feel a little hectic. All of my bridesmaids and moms were also so happy with their makeup, and everyone looked absolutely beautiful. I am so grateful to have had the MakeMeUp team as part of my wedding day and would recommend them to any bride in a heartbeat!

Look No Further For Your MUA!

Christina is an absolute PRO. If you're looking for someone to make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself then look no further. She brings all of her own gear, works SUPER efficiently and is also just so delightful, kind, honest, and wonderful to be around.

Christina was the MUA for my sister's wedding and for mine, and in her chair you will feel so calm and confident. She quickly adapts to whoever is in her chair - she's easy to talk to if you're feeling chatty, but she is also perfectly fine to give you some quiet if you're not looking for conversation. She keeps the vibe light and bubbly and is the absolute BEST hyper woman.

I'm not a big makeup-wearer so was nervous about what I wanted on my wedding day, and Christina gave me so many options and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED the way I looked (and so did my entire party

Best Makeup Artist Ever!!!

I cannot thank Christina enough for the FLAWLESS work that she produced on my wedding day with my makeup!! Even not feeling well, she still took the time to drive 1.5 hours to me and make sure that I had the makeup that I wanted for my special day. It takes a certain person to put everything aside and still show up for someone, and Christina is that person. From my trial to the day of, she made me feel and look like a princess and I couldn’t be happier with choosing her as my makeup artist for the day!! THANK YOU for listening to what I wanted and putting in the time and work to ensure that I got just that. There are plenty of things that people stress about on their wedding but if you book with Christina, having the most perfect wedding day glam will NOT be one of them!!

SO happy with my bridal makeup!!! 10/10 would recommend!

Christina did my makeup for my September wedding. I could not be happier with how it turned out and how it held for the entire day and night (even though our wedding day was during a hurricane!!!). She and her team were so professional, talented, and fun to hang out with. I highly recommend!!!

Perfect makeup vendor!

MakeMeUp did makeup for myself, 7 bridesmaids, & 3 moms on my wedding day & everyone LOVED their makeup. Christina was super responsive via email & very fair in pricing. Stephanie was our lead makeup artist & she was incredible on the trial day, as well as the wedding day. Not only is she super professional & skilled, but she has the best energy & made the experience so fun. Highly recommend!

Best in RI Makeup!

I went with MakeMeUpRI for my wedding after having been a bridesmaid at 7 other weddings. MakeMeupRI did my makeup as a bridesmaid for 2 of those weddings, and as far as bridesmaid makeup went, they clearly were the BEST - across the board on all girls too! When it came down to my wedding, there was no question that I was going with MMRI - one of my top “needed to get” vendor for sure! They have this thing down to a science and are true professionals. I went with Christina (owner) for my wedding, and while I do think any other artist would have done an incredible job, I was so beyond happy I did - best decision! I had a trial first (which I highly recommend) and Christina followed up with me a few days after to take notes for any changes I had (all minor!). She clearly prioritizes her client’s happiness, and wants to make sure you LOVE your look for your wedding day. On the morning of the actual wedding day, I trusted Christina inherently with the amount of blonzer/blush ratio (something I always overdo on my own oops), knowing what photographs best. She was 1000% right and my makeup looked flawless in my photos (and in real life too!!!). Not to mention, Christina is truly one of the kindest people - the morning of the wedding when all the craziness was going on behind me, Christina truly chilled me out and was so refreshing to hang with for the hour that you have to just sit and do nothing (only time all morning!) while getting your makeup done. I’m so grateful for her that day! I know the other girls on the team are awesome too and the bridesmaids /MOG/MOB absolutely loved their looks, and looked stunning.

MakeMeUpRI for your wedding makeup is a no-brainer - from bridesmaid to bride, they are the best in the industry!!

Gorgeous wedding makeup from Makemeup by Christina Kaian!

Thank you to Makemeup by Christina Kaian for the stunning makeup artistry for my wedding! Our artists, Fatima, Alex and Marissa, were amazing! Christina and her team were a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process, from pre-booking to makeup trials to the wedding day. All 14 women in our group looked fantastic! We received countless compliments throughout the evening, along with many inquiries about who did our makeup. Fatima did my mom’s and my makeup for our trial and on the wedding day and we were thrilled with the results! We highly recommend Makemeup by Christina Kaian. Thank you again for making all of us look great on this special day!

Flawless!!

Christina was absolutely phenomenal to work with! She and her team made myself and my bridesmaids look out of this world beautiful. My trial confirmed how much talent she has - she even followed up with me after to see how the makeup held up throughout the day (perfectly), and to see if for the wedding day if any changes needed to be made. She had even remembered the exact lip shade we used during the trial so I could pick it up before the wedding. She is so friendly and truly makes you feel so comfortable. Everyone looked great all night - thank you again!!

10/10 recommend!

After being in my best friends wedding and having my makeup done by Christina, I immediately contacted her for my own wedding. Christina and Alex were patient, professional, and on time. My whole bridal party looked amazing and were SO happy with how their makeup turned out. I have never felt more beautiful!
