Bridal Dressing Room Must Haves

I have been to weddings all over the spectrum of preparedness and from my experience, the following are some helpful items to have in the room as you are getting ready for your special day!

- Music
- Cold Water & Mimosas
- Breakfast or Lunch
- Snacks
- A Place to Hang & Steam the Dresses
- Activities or Magazines
- Band-Aids, foot petals and a sewing kit

FOR YOUR HAIR and MAKEUP ARTISTS:
Electrical Outlets
Table Space
Good Lighting
... we're pretty simple in our demands :)

Keep the wedding party happy & hydrated and your day will go smoothly.

Plus, having everyone in one place will keep the schedule moving so you’ll be done on time.

To Botox or Not to Botox

What bride doesn’t want to look fresh & well rested on her big day? Even if you don’t want to keep it up after the wedding than at least try it for your wedding day. I suggest it mainly if you have deep lines between your brows or creeping crows feet around the eyes... those are the two areas that I notice the biggest impact on brides, especially in photos. It's not scary and if you go to the right doctor you will LOVE the results (you might even get hooked on how fresh you look!)

Just remember 2 important things:

1. Go to a great doctor – Dr. David Poole or his PA Stephanie 407.788.8080

2. Schedule your appointment at least 2-3 weeks before the wedding so if there’s any bruising there will be time for it to disappear before the rehearsal.

I have a lot of clients and friends that regularly see Dr. Pool and Stephanie and they RAVE about how gentle they are and sometimes they even run specials around Mother's Day. Check it out and let me know what you think!
