If ever there was a time to look and feel your best, it is on your wedding day! The question is, how can you ensure that this is the case? What can you do the day and night before the wedding, as well as on the special day itself, to maximize your natural beauty? Here are some tips.
Pamper Yourself the Night Before
It’s a good idea to take the night before the big day to relax and treat yourself to some well-deserved pampering. Soak in the tub with a glass of wine, apply a nourishing crème to your skin, and wash your hair. Many hairdressers recommend that you wash and dry your hair the night before rather than the morning of your wedding. It is much easier to style and keep in place this way.
Eat Something Light
Prevent bloating and give your skin a natural glow by eating a light, nutritious meal the night before. You can’t go wrong with a bowl full of colorful fruit, or some protein and a few leafy greens.
Get a Good Night’s Rest
There is a reason why they call it ‘beauty sleep’, and there is no better time to stock up on it than the night before you are due to say, ‘I do’. Drink some soothing chamomile tea if you are feeling the pre-wedding jitters, and strive to get a minimum of eight hours’ worth of shut-eye.
Don’t Rush
Be sure to set aside plenty of time to get ready before the ceremony is going to take place. You will want to be able to enjoy the process of putting on your makeup and getting dressed, paying attention to each and every detail. It is also wise to have some extra time to spare just in case you run into a makeup mishap and need to re-do some of your work.
Set the Scene
If you want to ensure that your wedding photos look absolutely stunning, spend some time setting the scene. Along with immersing yourselves in nature, another great idea to consider is a photography-friendly butterfly release.
Your guests can stand around you and your partner and release the beautiful butterflies into the sky while the photographer snaps some images. The gorgeous, fluttering butterflies will be sure to complement your natural beauty and ensure the emergence of photos that are far more special than the norm!

Smile
Simply smiling as much as possible will be enough to leave you feeling like the beautiful bride you always hoped to be. There is also scientific evidence that smiling can boost your mood and make you endlessly more attractive. A study conducted in 2013 revealed that participants always preferred the smiling face when they were shown multiple images of the same person with differing facial expressions.
Most importantly, strive to enjoy every moment of that special day. The more you enjoy it, the more beautiful you will look and feel without even having to try.
These are all good tips. Most brides feel nervous so it important for each one to realize that there are steps she can take to help her feel and look better.
It will be so nice when we return to some sense of normal and special events like weddings can take place as planned. These are great tips for couples.
