Meet Your Artist

Hi, I’mKaterina

Soft bridal beauty, made personal

I create refined, natural and elegant bridal hair and makeup for brides who want to feel polished, comfortable and still like themselves.

My work is about enhancing your features, not covering them up with luminous skin, softly defined makeup and romantic hairstyles that feel beautiful, modern and never overdone.

I want you to feel calm, confident and recognisably you before one of the most important moments of your day.

My Approach

I love helping brides feel calm, confident and beautifully themselves before one of the most important moments of their day.

Most brides who come to me do not want to feel transformed into someone else. They want to look fresh, elegant and elevated - while still feeling comfortable in their own skin.

That is the balance I focus on: soft, polished beauty that feels modern, personal and true to you.

My approach is considered, detail-focused and reassuring. I believe skin should look like skin, hair should still feel like hair, and makeup should enhance your natural features - not hide them.

For bridal bookings, I can also help with your beauty timeline, trial planning and clear communication from first enquiry through to the wedding morning, so the whole experience feels calm and organised.

What I believe

The Marikate Experience

The principles I bring to every trial, every wedding morning and every bride I work with.

I

You first, look second

Your inspiration matters, but the final look should be designed around you - your features, style and comfort. We start with how you want to feel, how you photograph and how your wedding morning runs. The look comes from there.

II

Skin like skin

I work with thin, considered layers and breathable products. You should still look like yourself in candid photos at midnight - polished, fresh and never overdone.

III

A steady wedding morning

A beautiful look is only part of the experience. I also care about timing, communication and helping the morning feel calm, organised and enjoyable.
