Katarina was WONDERFUL. From start to finish she made everything so easy. I even changed my mind for my hair last minute and she delivered. I never felt so beautiful before. When I was in the chair getting my hair done, she could tell I was starting to stress because we were getting ready to get photos in the bridal suite and the room was still needing picked up. She helped delegate tasks to my bridesmaids to help ease my mind and alleviate any stress on me. Not only is she great, she is fast. She and her other stylist were able to complete hair and makeup for myself, 3 bridesmaids, flower girl, mother and grandmother in under 3 hours. I have absolutely 0 complaints.
(I don't have all my photos back from my photographer so I snuck a selfie before I walked down the aisle to show off her great work)
Katarina, thank YOU!!!

Katarina was such a delight to work with for my wedding! I hired her because my planner recommended her, and I'm glad I did! She was so kind, professional, attentive and made my wedding stress free on the morning of.
She not only kept us on time, but helped wrangle my bridesmaids who didn't get services be on time. I will forever be grateful for the atmosphere she created and allowed me to relax and enjoy my wedding. I will forever recommend her to anyone getting married! I felt so beautiful!!!!

Katarina’s professionalism was evident from beginning to end. Her expertise was evident in her ability to work with all kinds of skin types and ages. She knew exactly what to do to tame my curly hair and make me feel like a princess in the process. She made my daughter special day, remarkable and unforgettable.

Katarina Made me feel very beautiful for my daughters wedding. I've had my makeup done by other artists and I have always hated how I looked because it accentuated all the wrinkles I have. Katarina did a beautiful job of making them disappear. Beautiful work

Katarina is incredible—she truly went above and beyond. She was easy to communicate with, her surveys helped me narrow my own vision and help my bridesmaid find theirs, and she was open and receptive to feedback and requests. Not only did I feel beautiful and yet still myself, so did my bridesmaids, my mother, and my daughter. Our hair and makeup lasted the night and yet felt lightweight and comfortable. Last-minute, Katarina was even willing to pin loose blooms in everyone’s hair and help me adjust and pin my flower crown. I cannot recommend her enough.

From start to finish everything was great! I loved getting to do the trial because it made me more confident for the big day. Everyone on the team was fun to work with and did great work. My hair and makeup stayed camera ready all night even through happy tears, 80+ degrees, and hours of dancing. I highly recommend Blushing Bride!

Katarina was an amazing help on my wedding day. She made me feel and look my best and was so supportive. We did a trial run in which she tried several different styles to make sure I loved my look for my big day. Hire her for your big event, you won't regret it!

Katarina is amazing! I had the honor of having her as my hair and make-up artist recently and she did a wonderful job working with my natural curls, working with my bridesmaids and their needs, and being a relaxing presence as we were getting ready. She's incredible and I'd highly recommend her!

Katarina went above and beyond my hopes for my wedding day hair and makeup.
She was incredibly professional, amazing with hair and makeup, and a delight to work with. From our first phone call I felt confident she would understand my vision for my wedding day, and would provide her expertise to make that possible. I loved the ability to do a trial at her very cute studio, and then she followed up after to make any adjustments needed for my wedding day. She was on time, efficient, and overall so fun to work with. My bridesmaids and I couldn’t have been more pleased with how our hair and makeup looked on the day. It lasted all day and night and I felt so beautiful all thanks to her! I would highly recommend her services to anyone who needs wedding or event hair and makeup!! Thank you Katarina & Blushing bride pdx!!

I want to start off by saying that Katarina did a beautiful job of my hair and makeup on the day. I got lots of compliments and I felt beautiful. Unfortunately I found the process of working with her challenging. When I went to my trial, she said she was going to send some skin product recommendations along with a portal to input any changes that I wanted to make for the wedding. I waited a while and didn’t receive anything. I texted her multiple times on the phone number that she provided to me. After I while I asked my fiancé to reach out. She had changed her number without letting us know. She was apologetic and said she would resend it. I still didn’t receive anything so I tried to text her on the new number a couple of times. We also left several messages on her voice mail. Eventually we emailed her saying that we wanted to email the notes to her. On the day she did my hair and make up as well as my mums. She did a great job. She told me she would wait until I was dressed to put in my veil and left the bridal suite. We spent some time with my photographer getting photos of me getting dressed. She came in twice while we were taking photos so I told her to come in and put the veil in before I was ready because she seemed like she was in a hurry to get away. I think she is great at doing makeup and hair that enhances natural beauty. However I’m disappointed to say that I wouldn’t recommend hiring her.

We wanted to start out by apologizing for the experience you had. Unfortunately when you b...
ooked 16+ months in advance, we did change processing servers completely which had some hiccups along the way, as we got used to the system. Which is why we refunded you 20% prior to this review, and without being asked to. As for the veil placement we’re sorry that you felt rushed, we did wait over an hour and a half, and only tried to re enter the bridal room when the photographer left the room, as we thought you were ready. Again we apologize for the experience you had with our company, and will use this feedback to better our company!

Omg Katarina is Heaven sent. I’m so thankful I found her! She executed my make-up and hair perfectly. As a brown bride in Portland, OR it was scary to trust. She absolutely nailed it. I love her!

10/10 would recommend. She was on time for both our trial and wedding day, easy to talk to, and encouraged me to give her honest feedback.
Together we were able to creat the PERFECT look. She worked wonders with my incredibly long and crazy thick hair, and she kept my bridesmaids laughing all morning. Everyone was done on time and looked amazing!

Katarina did an amazing job for my wedding hair and makeup on every bridesmaid of mine. I was nervous about how my mom's hair would turn out being so thin and brittle and somehow she made it a masterpiece.

Katarina and the hair stylists with her (so sorry I don't remember her name) were both fantastic. I had a very large wedding party and we where in the middle of a heat wave. They put up with my crazy group beautiful and did a fantastic job! My hair and makeup was even better then my trial!

Katarina did a fantastic job with my hair and makeup as well as the rest of my party (so 7 of us total!) all by herself! We had an early morning but it was well worth it! Katarina encouraged me to take notes after my hair and makeup trial and let her know how everything held up as well as what I liked/didn't like throughout the day. She remembered everything we talked about during the trial as well as all the notes I had afterwards on the wedding day months later so everything went so smoothly! Highly recommend!!!

Katarina is AMAZING! I actually did two separate trials. The first was hair and makeup, and the second was just makeup because I wanted to tweak some things. When my husband and I did our first look, he couldn’t stop saying how beautiful I was and how much he loved my hair! Katarina is honestly so sweet and really easy to talk to. She drove all the way out to Pacific City for our microwedding. You will NOT regret hiring her!

Katarina (and her assistant) did an amazing job with my wedding makeup and hair. The trial was extremely helpful so I knew exactly what I wanted on the wedding day. She did makeup and hair for myself, 3 bridesmaids, my mom and my husband's mom. We got so many compliments! She stayed around and made sure our hair and makeup were holding up while we got dressed. Her day of kits came in super handy for touchups throughout the day. We even had a mishap when a groomsman spilled on his suit and she went out and bought us a hair dryer to help us get him dry before photos. She truly went above and beyond. I'd hire her again no question!

I was a victim of fraud after booking servives through Onsite. Katerina posted on a wedding collaboration group I follow offering her services to brides affected. She was able to fit me in with just three days notice! She did both my hair and makeup and did an amazing job! We didn't have a chance to do any kind of trial obviously l, but I showed her the pictures I had, what I liked and disliked about them and she nailed it! I got so many compliments throughout the day. My makeup lasted all night, even the lipstick!

Katarina was fantastic. I didn't have a clear picture of what I wanted, and she worked with me to make me look perfect for my wedding. She was really personable and worked well with all my bridesmaids' different styles and personalities too. She went out of her way to make sure that we were able to do a hair and makeup trial before the wedding, and she was super prepared in case anything bad happened. I would absolutely recommend Katarina to anyone!

Katarina did my hair and makeup for my wedding and I can say with no doubt she was the most amazing artist to work with! She was so flexible and sweet, she even went to the hair extension shop with me to make sure I was getting the right color for my hair! Her prices are super reasonable for the amount of time and work she puts in. Overall I would DEFINITELY recommend her if you want an artist as dedicated and passionate as she is. Thank you so much katarina for everything you did to make my wedding even more special!

Katarina was timely, professional and so easy to work with. Trying different hair and make-up options until I could decide on just the right thing was no problem for her. The trial session was hugely helpful. After that we made a couple notes for things to change and my hair and make up on my wedding day was perfect and looked great all night! Absolutely recommend working with Katarina for your wedding or special event!

I hired Katarina for my wedding, and she literally was so understanding! My wedding party was running behind and instead of complaining she reassured me that everything was going to be alright and work out in the end! She not only did amazing work, but calmed me down as well!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better hair and makeup artist!

When I went to Katarina I was incredibly nervous, being someone who doesn't wear much makeup (mascara and concealer under the eyes) I wasn't sure if getting my makeup professionally done was something I wanted to have done. All those feelings immediately went away when I met her! We attempted the traditional full coverage look and it was just not my look and she immediately found a solution that nailed the look I was aiming for. Her work was absolutely flawless. She is quick to respond to messages and incredibly friendly. I am blown away with her willingness to work with me and to abilities to make one feel beautiful. 100% would recommend her to all brides :)
