Every bride wants to look flawlessly beautiful and perfectly camera-ready on her wedding
day, but achieving that level of perfection may require more than one set of hands.
Most wedding experts advise brides to step away from the curling iron and let a team of
beauty professionals handle their hair and makeup on the big day. Let the pros work their
magic so you can relax, sip a mimosa, and enjoy the morning with your bridesmaids. Think
of your prep team as your beauty insurance agents. If your hair goes flat, if your makeup
smears, if your nail polish chips, your agents can assess the damage and provide quick fixes.

SPA TREATMENT Give your body the rejuvenation it deserves. Start treating yourself to
spa and facial treatments at least six weeks in advance.

MAKEUP You should hire a professional makeup artist to style your makeup on the
big day. You may know your own face better than a stranger, you may feel confident
in your makeup techniques, but a pro has the ability to enhance your natural beauty
in ways you may not have considered. Plus, a pro can apply natural looking makeup
that will accentuate your best features even in photos and harsh light.

HAIR Veils, crowns, headpieces, hair extensions, accessories, and complicated updo’s can
present styling challenges. A professional hair stylist can help you find the most flattering way
to style your hair and incorporate your hair accessories.

PRACTICE Schedule a beauty trial run with your hair and makeup professionals some time in the
month before your wedding. You won’t want to deal with any styling surprises or last minute
changes on the day of your wedding.
