Your Ultimate 12-Month Bridal Beauty Timeline

Your wedding-day beauty doesn’t just happen—it’s the result of thoughtful planning and preparation. We’ve put together the ultimate month-by-month bridal beauty timeline to help you stay on track and stress-free as you get ready for your big day.

Here’s how to plan for your most radiant, confident self:

---

12 Months Before the Wedding

• Find an esthetician: Start regular facials every 4–6 weeks to build a glowing foundation. Remember, makeup looks best on healthy skin, so prioritize your skincare routine.
• Set beauty goals: Want longer hair? Clearer skin? Start now with a realistic plan.
• Create a skincare routine: Work with your esthetician to develop a simple, effective daily routine using professional-grade products. If you need recommendations, reply to this email with your location, and we’ll do our best to connect you with a trusted expert in your area.
• Research beauty vendors: You could spend hours researching… or just call us 😉, but finalize additional beauty vendors such as estheticians, laser hair removal specialists, nail techs, hairstylists, spray tan providers, teeth whitening professionals, and injectable experts—remember, we know the best of the best (and we love sharing our secrets). Want the full glow-up guide? Inquire with us and we’ll spill it all.
• Start fitness and wellness routines: Incorporate yoga, Pilates, or light workouts to feel your best physically and mentally.
• Explore injectables or fillers: If Botox or fillers are on your list, find a trusted provider and begin discussing your wedding-day goals.
• Finalize your wedding dress and veil: Purchase your dress now to allow for fittings and avoid rush fees.
