Spray Tan

I was wondering if anyone is getting or plan on getting a spray tan from a salon for your wedding.  I've gotten it donw 3-4 times for other weddings and it has come out great.  It hasn't run on any of my dresses yet.  However, a few people that I have talked to said they would be nervous that it would bleed onto the dress.  I just wanted to see what eeryone thought and if anyone knows someone who did it!

    Ive had it done many times before and it does get on your clothes - I dont care what anyone says. I got a spray tan before bed, woke up, showered and then wore a cream dress to a baptism and the bottom rims and around the armpits and neck were all discolored. I havent noticed with darker outfits prob bc you cant see it. I get mine done at beach bum, so dont know if that helps. I would DEF be worried it would bleed onto my wedding dress. Then the girl at beach bum told me i have to get it done 2 days before wearing white - bunch of bull crap. I love spray tan still but id never wear white after having it done again.

    I would def lean away from doing this for your big day for the same reasons mentioned above! You'll def. Get marks under your arms on the dress. Even if it's a few days afterwards, your skin still sheds and between that and sweating/rubbing from dancing, you're looking at a potentially funky looking dress...

    I got a California tan and didn't notice anything rubbing off. HOWEVER, my FI got a spray tan at the same time as me - except he had a person spray him, and his rubbed off for a good two weeks. We got the tans for a wedding we had to attend, and he had to throw out his white dress shirt because it turned orange. I wouldn't take that chance with a wedding dress.

    It's just not me.  Sometimes they look good, sometimes they definitely don't.  And it will probably get on your dress.  I'm not going to do it, but it's also not the type of thing I'd do in the first place.

    I got it done for my cousin's wedding and looked way too orange and dark.

    It stains your dress, not worth it! Just be "bad" and tan like 2-3 times a week a month before.
