Homebodii Bride of the Month: Karolina Malina

A little bit about me…

I’ve been working as a model since the age of 14, and over the years I’ve also built a career as an influencer, sharing my life, passions, and everyday moments with my community online. Storytelling has always been close to my heart, and I love capturing beauty in both big milestones and quiet, meaningful details. I’ve known my husband for five years, and from the very beginning it felt like a perfect match - a partnership built on love, trust, and genuine friendship. 

Our approach to planning…

Thoughtful but intuitive. We focused on what truly mattered to us - the atmosphere, the emotions, and the people we love most. Rather than chasing perfection, we wanted everything to feel natural, calm, and full of heart. 

Looking back on the day we are so glad that we…

Allowed ourselves to slow down and truly experience every moment. From the quiet morning preparations to the joy of celebrating with our loved ones, being present made the day unforgettable.

The most unexpected part of the day was…

How emotional and overwhelming it felt in the most beautiful way. The love, the support, and the intensity of the moment stayed with us far more deeply than we ever anticipated. 

When I look back on the day now I feel…

Immense gratitude. It was a day filled with love, calm, and genuine happiness-memories I will carry with me forever.

A word of advice to new brides would be...

Trust yourself and your instincts. Do what feels right for you, not what feels expected. The most beautiful weddings are the ones that reflect your true story.

My Homebodii moment was special because I wore…

It marked the quiet, intimate beginning of the day - a moment just for myself before everything unfolded. I wore the Miami slip paired with the Athena robe during my morning preparations. It made me feel calm, feminine, and effortlessly elegant. It was comfort, beauty, and emotion all wrapped into one unforgettable moment. What made it even more special was that my mum wore the Sian Long Slip and matching robe in blush during the preparations. Seeing her feel confident, radiant, and truly beautiful in that moment is a memory I will cherish forever.
