Does anyone know anything about them? Has anyone done it? I am thinking about doing it for my wedding. Any opinions?

Re: spray tan??
I've done it several times. My results varied. The first time I did it, it looked fantastic. I already had a tan and looked super tan after the spray. No one knew I'd been sprayed (not even my FI).
The second time I did it wasn't quite as wonderful. I must've missed spots when rubbing and ended up looking dirty. I had streaks on the backs of my upper arms and avoided wearing sleeveless shirts until it wore off. I truly felt like I had streaks of dirt on my arms.
The third time was great again.
The places all tell you not to wear any light colored clothing for at least 24 hrs after being sprayed because the color WILL rub off.
I considered doing this for my wedding, but thinking about time number 2, I've decided against it. I just don't want to take a chance that I'll look like the Dirty Bride.

Thanks, I am nervous and i think it might not be such a good idea.

Airbrushing might be better b/c someone is doing it for you! It is a little more costly that the spray on tans. Many spas have the airbrushing now.

Re: spray tan??
I've had this done at my cousin's salon. There are two types of airbrushing at her salon. One is the colored one where you can see results immediately (and you can't shower for 8hrs) You can streak. (my results for the one time I tried it were great) THe only time I did not like it was when it started wearing off because it looked like certain parts of my skin was dirty. All I needed to do was loofah.
The other tan was a 'Bridal Tan' which doesn't rub onto clothes but also doesn't appear immediately. It works with your own skin pigments. I've never done this before. My cousin reccommends that anyone who wants this for their wedding day-definately try it before. The advantage is it doesnt rub off, and it works with your natural tones. Disadvantage is that you don't see the results immediately therefore you can not correct if there is any streaking.
Whatever you select...definately test it out a few times before your big day. Salons do offer bridal packages.

I get it done at Dakotah Spa in Woodbury. Patzi does it. It comes out AWESOME!!! I've had it done 3 or 4 times now (including my Wedding) & it came out perfect every time! NOTE: You can't be modest for hand-airbrushing!

Re: spray tan??
I got it done at Glow Skin Spa and would absolutely recommend it to anyone. Here is my review:
I've done the Mystic Tan at Hollywood Tan with varied results--sometimes it's been splotchy and sometimes it's come off on my clothes.
The best results I've gotten were from airbrush tanning at Paul Lebrecque Salon on the Upper East Side. It was expensive (about $75) but very worth it. Completely even, all-over tan and they can even use the airbrush to 'sculpt' you and make you look more buff by contouring. Hope this helps!

Re: spray tan??
my mil got this done before the wedding. it was the kind where someone did the spraying. she wanted subtle results so we were surprised we didn't see much of a change, but she did and was happy about the results, but again, she went with subtle tanning. but she liked how easy it was and how she wasn't stuck with a mess afterwards.

I would definitely ask about that first, I'm not sure.
