If you were going to splurge on one particular area of beauty in prep for your wedding, what would it be and why? Skincare, facials, makeup, or something else? Stress is the worst beauty buster around, so anything you can do to reduce stress and help you to relax will help to ensure you look and feel your best. Even better, if you have the budget, do a couples’ massage. Any DIY beauty tips or treatments that brides can do at home? There are a lot in the book, but one of my favorites is to use full-fat Greek yogurt as a spot treatment on pimples.

The lactic acid helps break down the pore-clogging sebum and skin cells, the probiotics help balance bacteria, the coolness helps reduce inflammation, and the fat helps prevent peeling. What does it mean to be a “radiant bride”? She is the best version of herself on the inside and it reflects on the outside. She is confident, healthy, and happy. She isn’t trying to look like someone else because she knows she’s perfect just the way she is.
