Discuss your wishes about the hairstyle you envision, the condition of your skin, have a manicure, a makeup consultation and a facial. When you look good, you feel good and you know everyone’s attention will be on YOU! You may also want to consider taking your friends or family along for the experience.

Makeup consultants recommend a natural look. Professional pampering will guarantee a gorgeous, confident day that is too important to be left to chance.

Relax and be a Spa Bride!

You want to look your best for your wedding day but you don’t know where to begin. For expert Beauty advice and treatments, as well as a relaxing experience to take you away from the hectic pace of wedding planning, make a date with a spa.

THERE ARE TWO KINDS OF SPAS: destination spas and day spas. A destination spa is a spa that guests come to from both near and far and are usually thee for a least one overnight and maybe for an entire week or two of vacation. These destinations spas are often located in scenic surroundings that may have natural features such as hot springs for therapeutic purposes or mountains for hiking and biking. Guests can choose from packages that can include both beauty and exercise regimens or exclusively one or the other.

 

For those who just don’t have the time or resources for a destination spa, a trip to a local day spa may be all you need to begin a new beauty regimen as you approach your special day. Many trips to the day spa begin with a consultation as to the services you’d most benefit from. 

Many of the services are beauty-oriented, including hair colouring and styling, make-up consultations, and application, waxing, manicures, pedicures, and body exfoliation while others may benefit your inner self as well. These include various types of massage and aromatherapy.

You may choose to visit the spa for one or more services, or for an entire day of treatments that includes lunch or dinner. Many have special cuisine catered in or actually have their own kitchen to prepare meals.

Day spas definitely do vary in price; services and equipment, so it is best to do your homework. Ask your friends about their experiences and spend time calling each day spa and inquire about the services you require vs. the services they provide.

There are two kinds of spas; destination and day spas. A destination spa is one where guests come to from near and far, and are usually  there for an overnight. These destination spas are often located in scenic and beautiful surroundings, with natural features such as hot springs for therapeutic purposes or mountains for hiking or biking.  The beauty of the spa will be reflected by the geographic area that it is located in.  Guests can choose from packages that can include both beauty, exercise and yoga regimens.

For those who just don’t have the time or resources for a destination spa, a trip to your local day spa may be all you need to begin a new beauty regimen, as your approach your wedding date. Many trips to the day spa begin with a consultation as to the services you’d most benefit from.

Many of the services are beauty oriented; including hair colouring,  hair repair and styling, make-up consultants and application, waxing, manicures, pedicures and exfoliation, chemical peels, micro-dermabrasion,  laser treatments and hair removal, while others may benefit your inner self as well. These include various types of massage and aromatherapy, among other specialty services.

You may choose to visit the spa for one or more of their services, or for an entire day of treatments that include lunch or dinner. Many have special cuisine catered in or have their own kitchen to prepare meals. The day will be all about relaxation and pampering.

Day spas  do vary in price, services and equipment, so it is best to do your research. Ask your friends and family about their experiences and spend time calling each day spa and inquire about the services you require, versus the services they provide. Ask them about any new features that they may have recently introduced.

Discuss your wishes, explore the possibilities and avoid the stress of daily living and wedding planning by taking some time out for yourself.   Longer hair, smoother skin, a buffed body and a clearer mind ; this is your chance to improve on nature and to discover your potential while mitigating any stress that you may be holding.

Enjoy your treatments, enhance your natural beauty and find out what other brides know- being pampered and perfect during your engagement will certainly make you feel like a bride-to-be.

Wedding Planning Spas Health and Exercise

The months prior to your wedding can be a time of elation, but also one of stress for you, as well. You can keep the stress under control by taking care of yourself along the way.

By commencing on a good health and beauty regime early in your engagement will provide you will the all-over healthy feeling and glow you wish to achieve before your wedding day. Regular exercise and good eating habits are two keys to both emotional and physical well being.

You may want to join a health and fitness club to keep you motivated to stay in shape. They offer individualized diet and nutritional assistance, as well and can design a program especially for your needs.

Boot camps are a rage too and like any other form of exercise, they require discipline and commitment to your goal. The group mentality will give you an opportunity to make new friends while working on your goals.

You may also want to treat yourself to a spa experience. Day spas provide a caring and private environment where you can surrender your stresses, while making your body look and feel great.

A therapeutic massage after a busy, tension- filled week will ease the kinks and you will come away feeling refreshed both physically and mentally with a clear head.

Spas offer many services including facials, waxing, hydrotherapy, herbal body treatments. manicures, pedicures and other yummy treatments.  Some have hair salon services.They offer special packages for you so you can spend a relaxing, stress-free hour or day and leave feeling beautiful, invigorated and recharged.

We suggest that you start schedule spa sessions early in your engagement, especially if you have weight loss or toning as a priority.  You may also want to work on your complexion or other trouble spots that need a little longer to correct.

As you incorporate a personal health and beauty regimen into your life, include you mother, or bridesmaids, and even your fiancé.  It is always more fun to exercise, diet, or visit a spa with a friend.

Arrange a spa session for all the gals in your wedding party! It’s a wonderful thank you to them for all that they are doing for you at this special time in your life and it’s also a fun way for you all to  get together, unwind and catch up on everyones’ news. We live in busy times and what a great way to spend some quality time with your favourite  people during your wedding planning.

Treat yourself well and you will look and feel your best on your wedding day.
