You want to look and feel your best, but there are many details to manage. In this article, we'll provide you with a guide on what you should do to look best on your wedding day so that everything runs smoothly and you can enjoy this special occasion without any stress.
Hire a Wedding Coordinator!
We can’t stress it enough. Hiring a wedding coordinator (WC) is one of the smartest things you can do when planning a wedding. WC’s know all the in’s and out’s of the wedding industry.
With many weddings under a professional’s belt, they can point you to the best venue, photographer, and caterer, depending on the style you're looking for, all while keeping your budget in mind.
What to Wear on your Wedding Day
It's important to start thinking about what you and your partner will wear on your wedding day, as well as any other members of the wedding party. You'll want to take into account the time of year, the location of the wedding, and the overall theme or style you're going for.
You will see a lot of lighter fabrics like linen or cotton during summer weddings. Winter weddings, opt for something heavier like wool or velvet. If you're not sure what style you want, take a look at some recent weddings in magazines or online. Pinterest is a great source of inspiration.
Once you have an idea of what you want, start shopping around for dresses, suits, or tuxedos. It's always a good idea to get fitted by a professional so that everything looks perfect on your wedding day. Give yourself enough time to get alterations done as well.
Finally, don't forget about accessories! The right shoes, jewelry, and tie can really complete your look. Again, it's helpful to consult with a professional stylist if you're feeling unsure about what to wear on your wedding day.
Hair and Make Up Preparation
As the big day approaches, it's important to start thinking about hair and makeup. This is a great time to start thinking about what kind of look you want to go for. If you're not sure, there are plenty of resources available online and in magazines to help you decide.
Once you have an idea of the kind of look you want, it's time to start planning for it. If you're doing your own hair and makeup, start practicing now so you can perfect your technique. If you're hiring a professional, start looking around for options and book your appointment as soon as possible.
In either case, it's important to make sure you have everything you need well in advance. Make a list of the products you'll need and buy them ahead of time so you're not scrambling at the last minute. And if you're hiring a professional, make sure to get all the details worked out ahead of time so there are no surprises on the big day.
Prepping Your Skin
If you're like most brides, you want to look your absolute best on your wedding day. And while there's no shortage of advice out there on how to achieve that perfect glow, it can be tough to sift through all the noise and figure out what actually works.
Here's a little secret: getting your skin ready for your big day doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. In fact, with just a few simple tweaks to your skincare routine, you can see a noticeable difference in the way your skin looks and feels.
Here are a few things to do one month before your wedding to get your skin ready for the big day:
1. Exfoliate regularly.
One of the best ways to prep your skin for makeup is to make sure it's well-exfoliated. This will help create a smooth, even canvas for foundation and concealer, and will also help prevent any pesky breakouts. Look for an exfoliating cleanser or scrub that contains small beads or particles; avoid anything with large, harsh grains that could irritate your skin. Exfoliate 2-3 times per week for best results.
2. Amp up your hydration game.
Drinking plenty of water is always important for maintaining healthy, glowing skin. But if you want your skin to look extra dewy and radiant on your wedding day, upping your water intake is key. Aim to drink 8-10 cups of water a day.
