5 Tips for a Stress-Free Wedding Morning
It’s finally your wedding day! You’re likely feeling a whirlwind of emotions—excitement, nerves, and maybe even a little stress. But don’t worry! The morning of your wedding is the one moment you’ll have to yourself before the celebrations begin, so here are five simple tips to ensure everything goes smoothly.
1. Prioritize Sleep (If You Can!)
I know—easier said than done! But getting a good night’s rest will not only give you the energy you need for the big day but also help your skin look refreshed and radiant. That said, if you didn’t sleep much, don’t stress—I’ve got you covered!
2. Have Your Inspiration Photos Ready
One of the biggest time delays on wedding mornings? An indecisive bridal party. To keep things running smoothly, make sure everyone in your bridal party has a clear idea of the look they want. Bringing reference photos is a huge plus—it helps me create the perfect glam for each person efficiently!
3. Create a Comfortable Getting-Ready Space
Makeup artists and hairstylists bring a lot of gear, so having enough space is key. If you’re getting ready at a hotel, book a room with plenty of natural light—it makes a world of difference for flawless makeup application. Also, ensure there are enough tables and chairs for a smooth setup.
4. Steam Dresses the Night Before
Steaming dresses on the morning of your wedding can add unnecessary stress—not to mention, steam and freshly applied hair and makeup are a bad mix! To keep the morning calm and relaxed, and to ensure your glam stays flawless all day, encourage your bridal party to steam their dresses the night before.
5. Organize Details for Your Photographer
To ensure a smooth and stress-free morning, have all your detail items ready before your photographer arrives. This way, you won’t have to pause or disrupt the flow of your morning preparations. Assign a trusted bridesmaid or family member to handle any last-minute questions or tasks so you can stay seated and fully present during your makeup session.
6. Enjoy the Moment (Bonus Tip)
Remember, this is the only time in the day that is truly yours—a rare chance to be calm and collected before the whirlwind of celebrations begins. Your makeup appointment isn’t just about looking beautiful; it’s also an opportunity to relax, center yourself, and mentally prepare for the exciting day ahead! This is one of the happiest days of your life—so soak it all in! Things might not go exactly as planned, but trust that everything is unfolding just as it’s meant to. Your glam session is your time to breathe, relax, and get excited for the celebration ahead.
I can’t wait to glam you for your special day!
