1-2 Months Before
- Get your gown! Once you’ve found the Bicici & Coty dress of your dreams, use our store locator to find it
- For makeup, schedule a trial to see how everything will look and make sure it’s exactly what you want. Try Be Glammed service for an artist who will come to you! Tip: Schedule your trial and day of makeup with the same artist to ensure you will receive the same results.
- For hair go to your hairdresser (or Be Glammed and get your hair and makeup done at the same time!) with 2 or 3 ideas to consult about what style will work best with your hair texture, and current hair cut
- Mani / pedi appointments are best to make a few days before, try to avoid the day of because you will be rushed between hair, makeup and getting ready. Tip: Get a gel mani to make it last extra long!
- Spray Tan: If you’re opting for a professional spray tan, schedule it two days before your event. This will ensure the color settles nicely but doesn’t fade or rub off on your dress. For an extra bonze look without the spray tan, try Say Hello to Sexy Legs lotion the day of
- Match your dress color with your date’s tie or bow-tie for true “power couple” style status!
