When it comes to your big day, the last thing you want to be feeling is stress. Here are ten tips for the morning of your wedding, so you can step back, relax, and have some fun while you are getting ready!
- Follow the beauty guideline from your hair and makeup artist.
Prepare your skin and hair by following any tips that your stylist gave you. This will ensure that your hair and makeup application will be gorgeous and flawless.
- Set aside your “wedding details.”
This includes your dress, rings, jewelry, shoes, veil, hair accessories, invitation, and more. Have it ready to go for your photographer and videographer, so you’re not scrambling to find things when they arrive. Also, hang up or lay out your dress to prevent wrinkles!
- Pre-order breakfast and lunch to be delivered to you.
Coordinate with someone to have food delivered to you, so you won’t forget to eat while you’re getting ready! Eat something healthy in the morning to give yourself some energy for the big day. - Remember to hydrate!
Don’t forget to drink water! Using the bathroom in your wedding dress might not sound fun, but water can keep your skin looking great, and dehydration can lead to dizziness and fatigue. - Review your personal vows.
If you decided to write your own vows, write them ahead of time, then review them in the morning. This can help you feel a little less nervous if you are reading through and reciting them before the ceremony.
- Plan ahead.
Have a bag of all the essential items you may need, including a mini emergency kit. If you’re leaving for your honeymoon right after your wedding, pack your bag and gather all of the necessary documents ahead of time (passports, tickets, itineraries). - Have a designated point of contact.
Designate a family member, friend, or someone from your wedding party as a point of contact for your vendor team and guests. This way, you can unplug and live in the moment, rather than spend the morning answering calls and texts.
- Don’t sweat the small stuff.
Things don’t always go as planned, but don’t let minor mishaps get in the way of you enjoying your special day. Remember that at the end of the day, you’ll be marrying your favorite person, and that’s the most important thing. - Relax and have fun.
Put on your favorite playlist, pop some champagne, and have some fun with your wedding party! - Savor the moment.
It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of things, but don’t forget to pause for a moment to take it all in. Your wedding day will go by very quickly and you’ll want to take every chance to to step back and enjoy yourself.
