GETTING READY TIPS & DETAILS CHECKLIST FOR YOUR WEDDING DAY

Your wedding day begins not just when you step into the ceremony but from the moment you start getting ready! This preparation time will impact your emotions throughout the day. Therefore, let DWP help you understand the key considerations during this process to ensure a perfect and wonderful start to your wedding day.

How long is necessary for Getting Ready?

Typically, makeup artists will spend between 60 to 90 minutes on makeup and hairstyling for the bride. This time may be longer than you think, but allowing ample time will enable the experts to work meticulously to create the perfect look for you. However, you should also allocate time to eat, relax with friends, and allow photographers to capture beautiful moments. Therefore, a timeline of 3 to 4 hours is ideal for the Getting Ready phase before the formal wedding ceremony !

Attire for the preparation

Choose comfortable and lightweight outfits when preparing for your wedding day. For the groom and groomsmen, you can opt for simple and formal attire. For the bride and bridesmaids, there are plenty of options such as silk robes with embroidered names, colorful pajamas, or simply an elegant nightgown. Note that you should select outfits with wide collars or add an outer layer to avoid affecting the makeup and hairstyle that the experts have helped you prepare.

Key points to note

• Detailed timeline

Firstly, determine who you will be Getting Ready with. Do you plan to enjoy some drinks and snacks with your bridesmaids? How much time do you need to prepare for the photographer? These questions will help you create a detailed timeline for preparation. Remember, similar to the bride, family or bridesmaids will also need about 45 minutes for makeup and outfit preparation. Plan meticulously to ensure that the preparation session goes smoothly as planned!

• Prepare food and drinks for you and your bridesmaids/groomsmen

Prepare sweets, sandwiches, fruits, or snacks for your team. If you plan to have a "small party" with your bridesmaids/groomsmen, request the hotel manager to prepare several glasses of wine (corresponding to the number of people) and don't forget to bring a bottle of wine for everyone to toast! However, remember not to drink too much during this period!

• Ensure there is enough space for preparation

If you want to prepare Getting Ready with your bridesmaids/groomsmen in the same space, make sure everyone has enough space. In addition to you and your team, makeup artists, hair stylists, and photographers/cameramen will also be present. Make sure there are enough sockets for everyone's phones and hair styling tools. Ask the hotel manager to prepare additional multi-functional sockets for everyone.

• Engage in fun activities with your bridesmaids/groomsmen

In addition to celebrating together, you can make the preparation session more memorable by participating in some fun activities with your team. It could be filming a trendy TikTok video or giving cute gifts to your bridesmaids/groomsmen that you prepared earlier.

• Avoid using new products that you haven't used before

Not only during the preparation phase, but even on the morning of your wedding day, you should avoid using entirely new cosmetics, moisturizers, or perfumes. Sometimes, you may have an allergic reaction or other issues. That's also why you should have a makeup trial with a makeup artist to ensure everything is perfect and to avoid any risks.

During the Getting Ready phase, you may feel stressed with many things to manage on your wedding day. However, relax and trust yourself and those around you. Wishing you a fantastic wedding day!
