I would do a week. Just in case you have a reaction to the facial.
Eyebrows should be done a few days before.

Not sure about self tanner.

All beauty treatments that you have never had before should be tried at least 2 weeks before the wedding.

yep -that's what I'm doing...2 weeks...you don't want to chance it if something goes wrong - ESPECIALLY a facial!!! Give your skin time to react.

Here was my timeframe for those, and it worked out well.

Facial-1 week before
Tanning-I hit the beds, but my last appt was two days before, my MOH did a self tanning application the day before and looked great.
Eyebrows were 4 days before

I got my hair trimmed 3 weeks prior and highlighted 10 days prior.

Facial 2 weeks prior; you never know how you're skin will react.

Self-tanning; I think it depends on the product. If you're gradually building the tan, try now to see what your results are.

Eyebrows I'd do a one to three days before; mine take forever to grow so I don't think that I can give you the best answer on this.

Do you wax your brows? Or do you thread? Because threading seems to last longer for me personally. I am planning to get mine threaded here in Dallas 1 week before the wedding and just pluck any strays.
