This is it, your big day has finally arrived!
The hours are rushing by, people are running around getting the preparations
ready and your phone will not stop ringing.
Take a moment and breathe. Nobody ever said
getting married was going to be easy. If you’re anything like all the other
soon-to-be brides, I’m sure you’re worried about how you’re going to look in
front of all of your guests. Here’s a few tips to help you nail your perfect
wedding look.
1. Stop obsessing about
it, silly.
It’s one of the biggest days of your life and
you want everything to be perfect, including you. It helps to internalize that perfection out
of those photos will come from a well-rested, happy bride. Your guests are
coming to celebrate your love and great accomplishment; they are here to
support you and they are going to do that no matter how you look.
The sooner you can relieve the incessant
thinking over your big day, the better you’re going to feel. This will exactly
show the essence of your confidence and positive-outlook on those wedding photos.
2. Make sure you’re
eating enough.
Your wedding is getting close and you probably
are looking at those slices of cake with a feeling of dread; knock it off and
go have some. It’s essentially not worth the hungry-eyes on the aisle
portraits. Regardless, not
eating enough is not only terrible
for your health, but it will help you look hungry, tired, and cold.
If you want to achieve the legendary bridal
glow, make sure you’re eating enough good
food during, and prior to your big day.
3. Make sure you’re sleeping
enough.
Just like eating, sleeping is good for you,
especially for your skin. Getting enough rest and getting the
right rest is going to make a
world of difference when you’re aiming to move gracefully in your wedding
dress. Getting 8 hours a night on days leading up to your big day is a good
start to looking your best.
4. Plan your hairstyle
in advance.
Inevitably one of the main stressors on bridal
week is hair and wardrobe malfunctions. The key to solving this is proper planning. Figure out exactly what your hair, make-up, and
wardrobe are going to be as far in advance as you can.
Life will happen and might force you to
consider some changes - and that’s okay. Make those decisions as guided as you
can, and make appointments as early as possible. Spend some extra bucks on
professional hair and make-up, so you can rest assured that they got you
covered on all angles.
5. Take a mental health
day.
If ever there was a time to take a day, it’s
the day before your wedding. You have undoubtedly earned a day respite from the
stress and fuss that goes into planning a wedding. Get some of your friends
together and hit the spa. A nice day in a relaxing environment will help you
feel reinvigorated for the best day of your life.
If the spa isn’t your thing, go somewhere else
that is. Massages and hot towels aren’t the cure, (though they are wonderful)
although being
with your friends can encourage the
feelings of comfort and relaxation that your bridal soul can thrive from.
Stay convinced that the perfect look is always
the look of a happy, healthy bride. This gathering is a collection of friends
and family who have bended over backwards to travel all this way to celebrate
your love. If they shower you with confidence and support, accept it with
smiling eyes and an open heart.
The most important thing is that you’re going to be just fine.
