For some of you, it might almost be time for your Wedding Day Getting Ready preparations. If so, we have some fun tips & advice for you! The entire getting ready process is one of our favorite parts of the wedding day, and we are rarely even a part of it! There is just something about the overwhelming feelings of anticipation, fun pampering and quality girl time that we love! The energy in the room can be relaxed, anxious and easy-going all at the same time. It’s a time that you will probably never be surrounded by your best friends and your female family members ever again!
Although wedding day getting ready can be filled with fun, there are also still a lot of emotions flowing. The reality sets in when it’s time to get dressed, photos are beginning and moves are being made. One thing you cannot let happen is for your beauty team to run behind. The reputable companies we work with send out details emails prior to the wedding day with rules, and it’s imperative that those are followed. Showing up with dry hair and clean faces are a must! Remember, that if beauty is running behind, it can throw off the entire day!
Stay organized! Keeping your dress, accessories, jewelry, shoes, etc together will make the wedding day getting ready process seamless for your photographer once they arrive. The last thing you want to do is have to rummage through all of your bags with curlers in your hair for your grandmother’s pearl necklace to be photographed. Tip: Bring a copy of your invitation for the photographer to style into your photos! An optional accessory is a fun ring box in a coordinating wedding color!
Lastly, our favorite part of the wedding day getting ready process is seeing everyone have FUN! We love getting photos back and seeing the cute outfits bridesmaids have on, cheersing with mimosas and laughter all around. If you are choosing to gift your girls something, a getting ready outfit is a perfect idea! You will all look great while matching in these fun photos. A recent trend we’re seeing is tossing confetti with your besties-it makes for great photos 😉
However you decide to get ready on your wedding day, make sure you stay organized, on time and relaxed! We always help our clients with the perfect timelines for even before they arrive at the venue to make sure that all of this happens.
