Here is the ideal schedule when preparing for wedding photos.

Three months prior:
To get that healthy, fresh-faced look, it’s a good idea to talk to your beautician about having regular facials. A great skin care plan will ensure you have a glowing complexion on the day.

One month prior:
Get your make-up trial done. This is to make sure that you look exactly the way you envisioned for your wedding day. Having a trial a few weeks before the wedding is standard practice and your hair and make-up artists will be happy to do it.

Two weeks prior:
It is highly recommended that you have a facial at least two weeks before your wedding day. This way any pimples or breakouts will have time to settle down.

One week prior:
Any facial and body waxing should take place now. It can take sensitive skin a few days to recover from hot wax treatments.

One day prior:
Your nails should definitely be done today in order to avoid chipping, nicks and smudges.

The night before:
Washing your hair the night before makes it easier for your hairdresser to style the next day.

On the day:
Use a very light moisturiser in the morning. If a heavy cream is used your make-up could end up looking and feeling very oily.

Keep a little pack with you (you could ask one of the bridesmaids to look after it) containing a lipstick, pencil, and powder compact.
