An Easy Wedding Beauty Planning TimelineAt your wedding, all eyes will be on you. Since you’ll have a photographer capturing every special moment and lots of loved ones to catch up with, it’s natural you’ll want to look and feel your best. But where should you start? I’ve had the pleasure of helping many couples prepare for their special day. Now, I want to share some of those tips with you! Read on to learn my easy wedding beauty planning timeline.
9-12 Months BeforeOnce you have your date locked in, it’s time to start researching nearby vendors. This includes everything from skin-clearing (and stress-relieving!) facials and an amazing nail technician to your makeup artist and hairstylist.
6-9 Months BeforeSince popular vendors book up quickly, getting all of your contracts signed and retainers paid around the 6-9 month mark is essential. At this time, you should start getting inspiration for what you want your “look” to be. For example, are you going for something light and effortless? Or more dramatic and bold? Time to schedule your preview session with your selected makeup artist and hairstylist to work out all the details of your beauty look for the big day.
4-6 Months Before4-6 months before your wedding is the ideal time to start your treatments. After all, the last thing you want is to experiment with a new skincare regimen right before your wedding only to find out shortly after that you’re allergic. Plus, some treatments, like teeth whitening with your cosmetic dentist, make take more time than you anticipated. So, it’s best to start early.1 Month BeforeWith about four weeks left until your wedding, it’s now time to finalize all of your appointments. This can include a spray tan, haircut, massage, and any other measures you are taking to look and feel your best on your wedding day. This is also a good time to start drinking plenty of water and sticking to well-balanced meals. Both of these measures will help maintain your energy levels.
1-2 Weeks BeforeWith only one or two weeks left before your wedding, it’s now time to attend all of those appointments you scheduled. If you need a final teeth whitening treatment to truly make your smile shine, this is the perfect time to do so. Make sure to bring along some inspiration pictures to show your hair colorist and your nail technician. That way, you can get the exact look you’re going for heading into your big day.The Day BeforeThe day before your wedding is here! While it’s natural to have lots of adrenaline, it’s important that you do your best to relax. Consider drawing yourself a bubble bath, watching a feel-good movie, pouring your favorite wine – whatever it takes to create a calming atmosphere so you can have a restful sleep the night before. Self-care is a part of your beauty routine!
Your Wedding Day!Following this beauty timeline will ensure that the bulk of your beauty treatments have been done – from getting your hair colored, teeth whitened, nails manicured, to visiting a facialist – all that’s left to do is let your day of beauty team take care of the rest and you get to sit back, relax, and enjoy your special day!
