Kate K Beauty | Bridal Beauty Team

nd kept me on time and organized. I actually slept in (on my wedding day omg) and she was calling my cell phone to try to wake me up.. and get this, she wasn’t mad! We started the day late and she didn’t even sweat it and got us out with plenty of time to spare. Now to her skills.. the day of my makeup felt natural and classic but with a sexy touch. I’ve literally never felt so good about my makeup. I normally don’t wear a ton of makeup so it was an adjustment to have on makeup and lashes but worth it. I cried through my whole wedding band the makeup pretty much stayed the entire time. She has a million different colors/shades/brushes and is very clean! (Very important) She only picks the best of the best team for hair and makeup too! Me and my girls looked exxxxtra fabulous on my day. I changed the style of my hair the day of and Bianca just went with it. I looked so good! And all my bridesmaids chose their own hairstyles with not a lot of real direction and she went with the flow making them feel beautiful. They also just fit right in with the friend group, adapting to our weirdness and singing along to the best songs with us. All I know is I consider them friends for life now. Thank you so much for being such an epic part of my day!!!!

to any question and has the best energy. I was looking for a beauty team that would make me look naturally beautiful. After all, I wanted to still look like me! Katlyn (makeup) & Natalie (hair) nailed it!! I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

ons it is very minimal. Knowing how many pictures were going to be taken of me, I did not want to have makeup caked on my face as to look nothing like myself; I wanted subtle accents that would enhance my features but not detract from the look as a whole (same for my bridesmaids). Kate K Beauty does an amazing job at doing this! I was obsessed with my makeup being a bridesmaid for my friend's wedding and again with my makeup for my own wedding; I didn't want to take it off!! All of our makeup lasted through the tears, laughing, and dancing all night long :) To sweeten the deal even more, Katlyn and Bianca's personalities are a perfect match to an excited group of girls on a wedding day...they talked and had fun with all of us! Please please please give Kate K Beauty a try, you will not regret it!!

akeup done professionally), but so did my SIL and I. Katlyn works with each individual to create a natural yet unique look for each individual. We loved her and would hire her again in a heart beat!

to look natural. She 1,000% knows her stuff and I went with every recommendation she had. With so much going on leading up to your wedding and day of, I can honestly say that worry or stress over hair or makeup was not one of them! They made me feel relaxed, they made me feel beautiful, and again, such a huge deal to have one less thing to worry about! So sweet and accommodating, I simply cannot say enough wonderful things about them. I HIGHLY recommend using this team of lovely ladies. We even had a fun little Lizzo jam session while getting ready :) Thank you endlessly Katlyn and Bianca!

t needed to be made to our wedding day schedule, she made me feel listened to and understood when telling her about my concerns for my hair and makeup before my trial, she listened and was the absolute sweetest most genuine person to work with! I will recommend Kate K Beauty to anyone I know getting married! She is the BEST!!! and absolutely worth every penny!

t feel heavy and we were able to still feel like ourselves. In looking thru her photo gallery you see that she does amazing work but the photographs won't tell you how great she is to work with. Organized, sincere, creative, Katlyn connects with her clients and listens. On my daughter's wedding day, she was prompt and help keep the mood light and my daughter calm while ensuring makeup and hair were completed timely. Would highly recommend Katlyn for her absolutely outstanding talent in makeup application and also for her warmth, calm, kind and sincere demeanor.

and makes you feel right at home. Literally, Kate and team are the best! Not only did they make myself and the girls feel beautiful, but had a great time throughout the process.

awesome. All the correspondence back and forth was hassle-free and super easy (both emails and texting). I loved the look she created which was inspired by photos I sent her. On my wedding day, all of my bridesmaids, my mother and mother-in-law looked absolutely beautiful (all make up done by Katlyn)! I felt the most beautiful I have ever felt on my special day, thanks to her! .❤️

ired for my big day (I’m just not into the contoured Kardashian look on me, but props to those who can pull it off) and Katlyn immediately put my fears at ease. She set me up with Bianca, who absolutely rocked my world during the makeup trial! Bianca is just as much of a sweet and professional soul as Katlyn is, and she really knows how to make a girl feel beautiful! Not only did Bianca make me look like a dewy natural goddess for my wedding, but she and her fellow artist Amelia were a hit with my bridesmaids. They arrived right on time and set up shop in the hotel room to get to work on my 7 bridesmaids, mom, mother in law, and my husbands’s sister (who was his best man). Every single lady felt and looked just as amazing as I did! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Katlyn was always there to quickly answer any questions I had, and was always checking in to make sure I was feeling okay with everything. Even further than that, I had a blast just talking to her about the occasional movies we’d recently seen or the latest good eats we’d stumble upon. She’s a lovely person who also knows how to run a fantastic business. I would go back to her in a heartbeat!

able and taken care of. I ended up doing a slightly different look the day of my wedding and the girls just rolled with it and worked with my needs. All my bridesmaids and my mom also could not be happier with their hair and make up. The best part is that the hair and make up held up through the entire day. I appreciated that Kate was constantly communicating with me and i always felt that I could reach out to her and have a fast and friendly response. If you want your look to be perfect and work with professional awesome people Kate and her crew are it :)

nts, feedback, etc., and gave me the perfect look for my wedding. They are so friendly and easy to work with. I’m not a “girly girl” and neither of them pushed product or looks on me that felt unnatural. I really appreciated that. They were also awesome with my flower girls and my mom! If I ever find myself in the area for another event or special occasion they will be the first person I call. Their prices are reasonable as well. I can’t wait for my pictures so I can post their amazing work! My wedding was at the end of sept, I just hadn’t downloaded the knot app yet ;)

ial run while also coordinating meetings with all other vendors on a single weekend was tough, but Katlyn made everything so easy! She worked with me and was able to accommodate the trial no problem and was very quick to answer any questions or changes I needed. She is extremely organized and put together a timeline for the day which worked out perfectly. I wanted a dewy/bronzy natural look for makeup and beachy waves for hair. She absolutely nailed this look and went a bit more natural for rehearsal and a bit more bold for the wedding. She and Bianca came to my hotel room and were on time for both events and so fun to work with! All of my bridesmaids were blown away with their looks- everyone was so happy and I am still receiving compliments from bridesmaids and wedding guests! I am so happy with how everything turned out- cannot recommend enough! The hair and makeup was perfect and exactly what I wanted, not to mention, they are so fun to work with!!

round! Highly recommend :)

g married. She responded to my request very promptly and was extremely detail oriented and organized. Her makeup application was gorgeous. She also did my mother’s makeup. We both found her makeup look to be very classy and beautiful. She also gave us the most luxurious eye masks before we started our session - such a nice touch! We were both very happy we found her and highly recommend her for your wedding!

sweet, so professional, and makes you look absolutely stunning. Katlyn really listens to you when you tell her what looks you like and don't like and asks questions along the way to make sure you are totally happy with your look. When it came time for my wedding, she made me, all of my bridesmaids, and my mom look and feel so beautiful. If you are looking for a makeup artist who is professional, incredibly talented, and awesome to talk to, book Katlyn! I could not be happier with how my wedding makeup turned out, she is amazing!

y to anyone who wants to feel like a queen on their wedding day, because I know I did

but everyone looked gorgeous. We had a lot of girls get their makeup done and everyone loved her so much! She even came to the venue to do a few eye touch ups! So grateful we went with her I can't imagine anyone else.

all so quickly. When I met her for my makeup trial she made me feel at ease as I sat back and got my makeup done (the first time in 10 years) and gave great feedback as we discussed what kind of look I wanted. I was extremely happy with what we decided on for the day, which meant I didn't have to stress about makeup anymore. She showed up early on the day and worked through all 6 of us quickly but efficiently, so we stayed on schedule and everyone looked stunning!! I definitely danced the night away at my wedding, so after 10 hours of wearing the makeup I was amazed how everyone told me my makeup still looked perfect. Katlyn is an absolute sweetheart and good at what she does, so it doesn't really get better than that!

wedding day and that was all due to Katlyn's AMAZING talents. The day of my wedding she did the makeup of six ladies and stayed on schedule, adapted to each person's style, and stayed so happy and cheerful the whole time! I am so grateful that Katlyn was on our team for our wedding, there is truly no one else that I would have wanted to have as a makeup artist for our special day!

e to give you a stunning look for your special occasion, look no further than Katlyn (Katekmakeup)!

took the time to get to know me and my bridesmaids before the big day and offer recommendations for ideas which I so needed. All of my girls LOVED their hair and makeup - she nailed exactly what I was going for!!! Plus she and her team were even more fun to work with in person AND they showed up on tome and finished early. A brides dream lol!!

is apparent but her people skills are what made the experience wonderful. She even did a little makeup on my 5 year old niece to make her feel special. I highly recommend Katlyn and her team and will definitely use her again!

oked SO beautiful because of her. My bridesmaids and mom loved their makeup as well! I cannot say enough good things about her. I recommend Kate to all future brides! You will not regret your decision to book Kate!

allergies, so I brought her to my trial and Katlyn suggested swatching on her arm. It was so nice and generous to take the extra time to do that. The day after my trial she even messaged me about how the makeup held up, and any possible changes. She was also super organized not only during the planning process, but the day of too. I would honestly recommend her to anybody and everybody. She worked really well with the girl that did my hair, as well as the photographer. You would not be disappointed!! Thank you for everything Katlyn!!!

dn’t like what Katlyn did but I had some last minute changes for everything. I’m so glad I did the trial because I had the opportunity to see what needed to be changed or altered with the look and makeup choices. Katlyn was welcoming to every idea and change that I had and came more than prepared to where I was getting ready at. We did not do another trial for the new look, I had full confidence in Katlyn. I am so glad I went with her for my wedding makeup artist. She went above and beyond my expectations. I 100% recommend Katlyn for whatever wedding look you’re wanting to achieve.

for your timeline (in my case that had to be revised a few times...but she was always quick getting back to me with a new schedule :) ). She arrived to the venue on time to do our makeup and everything stayed on schedule; we actually ended up having some extra time which was nice! All of our makeup looked amazing on my wedding day. Thank you Katlyn!

ng located in Chicago. Even with all that distance, she was so professional and prompt to answer all my texts, emails, and calm my worries. She wasn't just my makeup artist, she was a friend. Fast forward to my wedding day on June 2nd. Kate arrived early and got right to work. She did my entire bridal party (6 girls, my mother, and myself) she completed ahead of schedule and even stuck around to do touch up repairs on all my girls. We all felt like beauty queens! She did an outstanding job, and truly helped this bride feel like a million dollars. I can't thank her enough! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

e also (and very importantly) is reliable, on time, consistent, and FUN!! Thank you so much Kate.

can find on the market and the final result was perfect, way better than I expected. Would definitely work with her again on other special occasions.

atlyn also is wonderful at giving out tips, tricks and advice. If you want a professional with experience to make you feel and look wonderful, she’s the one!!

ny wedding. Her makeup style is so fresh and pretty - clean and beautiful while skillfully enhancing each womans unique features. She is ALWAYS on time, bringing along her sweet smile and fun, upbeat personality, which our team has come to adore. Kate just feels like home and is someone you want around on any important day. Kate is committed to her education and is contantly teaching me about new products and techniques. Talented, personable, kind and professional...that's Kate. In an industry that can be filled with diva's, her down to earth nature makes her a true gem!

Katlyn took the time to match the perfect foundation shade, making my light complexion look absolutely flawless for my big day! She took all of my stress away from how my makeup was going to look during our trial because she took my opinions and ideas into account and really listened to what I was asking for. For my job we needed professional photos taken for our website and I knew exactly where to look to have my make up done for the photos. I loved working with Katlyn so much and I highly recommend her for your wedding or events!

o I booked her. Definitely would recommend for any make up need! She was great at communicating what I wanted in my look. She made me feel comfortable on a hectic busy day. Katlyn followed the schedule perfectly which I appreciated so much. While getting my makeup done Katlyn made me feel more like a friend, not just another client. My makeup lasted for the entire day and it looked amazing in wedding photographs. Overall I would give another star on top of this five star rating because I actually enjoyed this experience. Thank you so much, Katlyn!

problem I had with my hair and made sure I was completely happy before we left - something she didn’t have to do. On top of it all she has the best personality! 15/10 would have her do my makeup everyday if I could!

I’m not one to wear a lot of make-up, and she always takes that into consideration and makes sure that I look like myself. She always makes sure that I’m 100% comfortable and satisfied with the end result. Not only does she do an awesome job, but she does it in a timely manner and makes sure everything is sanitized. You won’t regret choosing her as your make-up artist on your special day!

ushes - which was vital due to the size of my wedding party. To add, she was very efficient with the time given to her. I'd recommend her to everyone!
