How To Schedule Spa Treatments for Your Wedding Day

By , About.com Guide

Spas are the perfect place to get ready for your wedding day. But what spa treatments should you get, and when should you get them? Here's a treatment timetable that works for any big night out.

Getting Ready For Your Wedding At The Spa:

* One month to go – Get more aggressive facial treatments like micro-dermabrasion and glycolic peels. They remove the skin's outer layers and leave you glowing, but the skin needs time to recover.

* One week to go – Get a facial to deeply cleanse, exfoliate and treat your face and neck. Extractions and outbreaks will have time to clear up.

* Two days to go: Get a body treatment like a salt glow to look perfect in skin-revealing gowns.

Follow with a relaxing massage or hot stone massage . Drink plenty of water afterwards.

If you like that look, get a spray tan for a beautiful golden glow.

* One day to go: Get spa manicure and pedicure out of the way.

*Wedding Day!: All spa treatments should be done. It’s time to concentrate on hair, make-up and getting dressed to look your bridal best.
