Re: Tanning!

I tried to before the wedding just to get rid of my tan lines from the summer. I had never gone before and it gave me a wicked headache so I couldn't go back after the one time -
Plus I burn really easily so it really wasn't for me.

Re: Tanning!

I am tanning before my wedding for 1 month. This will give me some color so I am not the same color as my dress, also it will work as a base for my time in Aruba on my homeymoon.

When are you doing your e pics?

Re: Tanning!

Soon.. Ronnie wants to have Winter Theme ones.. So I guess in Jan we have to book a Photographer and take them.

I want to be tan since I hate MAKE UP!

Re: Tanning!

If I start now, I will look like I live in Miami....

I tan very easily.. I was just curious.. Do you think I will look weird tan in the pics since they are winter shots?

Hi JEN!!

Hi Theresa lol.
Ok if you tan very easily, go 1 week before. Just don't overdo it go for a more natural tan rather than a fake & bake look.

Re: Tanning!

I usually start tanning in March.. I know, very bad.. but I def will be tan for my wedding! Right now I have what I call winter skin, however, if you saw me you'd probably think I already had a bit of color hehe.. I also plan on doing my make-up/hair trials when I start tanning as well..

Re: Tanning!

If your FH wants a winter theme for the e-pictures then you may not what to tan. If you want the pcitures to have a winter feel then a tan may take away from there authenticity. Def tan a bit for the wedding but for the pictures you can probably skip it. JMO.

Re: Tanning!

I would totally tan but just don't go tooo much that you look orange!
I figure my wedding is 10/4 that I will just go tanning and keep up my tan from the summer. I'm going to have to buy a stapless bikini so I don't get any lines. My dress is strapless..van't wait to wear it!

Re: Tanning!

If you tan easily go just once a week but start earlier, that way if you get too dark, you can stop before the e pics. I tanned September through a few weeks before my October wedding and I had some color, a nice base for my pics. I tan pretty well too.

Re: Tanning!

I didn't.Make sure you tell your make-up girl that you have a tan because if she puts air brushing on you for a base,she probably already has your colors picked out from your trial.
