Schedule a hair and make up trial! Get your nails done. Make sure your dress is finished being altered before the session. Schedule your bridal portraits 6 or more weeks before your wedding! Bring a white or off-white sheet that you can stand on to keep your dress dry- if the weather has been yucky. Bring comfy shoes and your wedding day shoes! Don’t forget your jewelry! Bring your veil if you have one! Bring a trusted friend! Your mom, sister, best friend, etc. You are about to get married! Bridals are meant to be fun. Dress up, relax, and soak it all in before the hustle and bustle of the big day comes along.
