Kasatkina shared some details from the wedding day in a joint post with her new wife, saying they “had the best day ever”.
“We just had the best day ever. We celebrated love, freedom and acceptance. No words for now, only appreciation,” she wrote, before tagging the professionals who helped with the event.
The pair received an abundance of support underneath the post, as well as messages of congratulations, with one fan writing in part: “Girls, you both look absolutely beautiful, and the happiness shining in your eyes is simply contagious. ❤️.”
“It’s so wonderful that you found each other and have started this new chapter together.”
“So happy 4 youuuu ❤️❤️,” another follower added.
In the images, the newlyweds were seeing kissing underneath a “what’s the love” mirrored sign in front of fireworks over the water.
The pair married in a beachside ceremony and both wore similar looks, Kasatkina in a black and white suit and her bride in an edgy halterneck black top and trousers and heels.
One guest in attendance was fellow tennis star, Russian-born Uzbekistani player Kamilla Rakhimova.

The happy personal news comes after her Wimbledon bid ended after she lost to Naomi Osaka 6-1, 6-3 in early July.
She and her new wife are believed to have been dating since 2021. They announced their engagement last year.
The tennis star officially became an Australian citizen earlier this year, proudly posing with her certificate in a snap shared online.
It comes after it was revealed that another Aussie tennis star had wed around Wimbledon.
Tennis power couple Alex de Minaur and Katie Boulter secretly married during the Wimbledon final.
After being knocked out of the competition, the pair held their wedding day near Boulter’s hometown in Leicestershire village.
The newlyweds have been together for a total of six years.
