A Beautiful Wedding A Beautiful You

How You Can Look Amazing On Your Wedding Day
by Takara Alexis

Looking stunning at your wedding means being glamorous, calm, and ready to make a new existence with the person that you chose to spend your life with. Your hair, nails, makeup, dress - and the way you look in it - are all pieces you need when developing into the bride you hope to be on that happy day. Obviously photos taken on your wedding day stay in your life forever, so it is absolutely necessary to feel and look your best.

The wedding dress is one of the most substantial items included your wedding plans, so you must make sure you take a good amount of time to pick one that fits you - not your mom, not your best friend, and not your bridesmaids. When that day comes, you'll need a dress that you can stand, sit and dance in without thinking about "wardrobe malfunctions" that may cause you discomfort. Permit a decent amount of time if your deciding that you want the dress made. But even if buy it somewhere "off the rack," you need to allow time for tailoring and etc.

You should get your nails professionally done the day prior to the wedding. This is one thing you won't want to do too soon before the wedding. Decrease the possibility of broken nails, or if applying nails, one coming off. Your hands will be a major focus of attention when showing everyone that new ring.

Makeup is the last thing you will have to stress over, and that comes on the actual wedding day. Do not try transforming yourself into a different looking person with crazy eye makeup or flashy lipstick. Make your true self look even better!

Apply your make up with a little bit of a heavy hand so that when you are taking your pictures you don't seem to be too washed out looking. If the wedding happens to be at night it is a good idea to put on your make up as if you are going to a restaurant or club at night. Don't over do it though! Also keep away from dark red lip colors and way too pale pink. Any type of frosted shadows or lipsticks is a no-no!

To avoid messy clumping you should buy fresh mascara. It's also a good idea to not try any new brands right before your wedding in case you have an allergic reaction to it. You definitely don't want to walk down the isle all blotchy and bumpy!

You shouldn't be out partying the night before your wedding. A good nights sleep is just what you need. If you're having a bachelorette party or rehearsal dinner, make sure it is over early enough. Drink in moderation if you are going to at all. A crazy hangover and some bloodshot eyes won't be a good look on your wedding.

To avoid having to squeeze into your beautiful wedding dress, you shouldn't stuff yourself the night before. Also, taking a nice long walk to try calming your nerves. A nice warm bath and a hot cup of herbal tea should really soothe your excitement and help with any pre-nuptial jitters you may have.
