Silly Question

Kiwee278

Ok, sorry if this sounds like a simple question, but I really have no idea. Should I get my makeup done first and then put on my dress or should I get dressed and then have my makeup done. I have heard of some brides putting a cape or something over their dress while getting the makeup done. I just don't know which works better and causes the least amount of stress Please help!! Thanks...13 days and counting.

hey! i have seen it both ways too

i've had my makeup done a few times before, and my personal preference is to have makeup done before getting dressed- that's my plan for wedding day as well.

for me, putting the dress on is going to be the very last thing before walking down the aisle! plus, i am terrified to get it dirty from anything- eating, makeup, etc.- before the ceremony.

good luck!

Kiwee, we're date twins... soooo close!! I'm definitely doing hair and makeup first and dress after.... going to find a short sleeve button up or zip up to wear and step into my dress. I don't want to have to worry about the dress until right before the aisle.

I did hair first, then makeup, then dress.  I stepped into my dress.  According to my make-up artist, I think most brides do it that way.

I did makeup, hair then dress with no problem.

I plan on doing hair first, makeup second, and the dress last...HTH!

Dress last.

Agreed, do your dress last.  You wouldn't want to get anything on it right before the wedding.

Thank you all so much. I wanted to do it this way, but I wasn't sure. The silly part is, I hadn't even thought about stepping into my dress. All the times I have put it on, I've had my hands in the air, and it was dropped down on me. The way you guys suggested sounds much better. Thank you.

To LVCK - We are twins, how are you feeling with 12 days to go?
