Wedding Ready

It’s the little things which will make all the difference on your big day, from a sparkling smile to a beautiful tan. Beverly Ligman shares her top tips for brides and grooms.

Yay! You’re getting married, congratulations! It’s a super fun day with all your favourite people, but first there’s just a little bit of beauty prep you’re going to need to do. And not just for you and your best ladies, your Mr-To-Be should also put his best foot forward on the big day. Here are some suggestions to get you both sparkling and wedding-ready.

Brow wow + lash dash

If eyes are the windows to the soul, then eyebrows and lashes are the oh-so pretty frames. Make sure you’re groomed and gorgeous with a trip to Subiaco specialist Your Eyes Only. Known for their attention to detail and making sure that your brows perfectly suit your face shape. Let’s face it you’re also going to need sexy, fluttery lashes on the day to make Bambi eyes at your new spouse, so enhance what nature gave you with some lash extensions or falsies. Subtle or high voltage glam – the choice is yours. Your Eyes Only Brow Studio 29 Catherine St, Subiaco (brows + lash extensions) or youreyesonlyhq.com.au Mecca Cosmetica 1-13 Rokeby Road, Subiaco or mecca.com.au (false eyelash application)

Smile bright

You’re going to be smiling A LOT on your big day and as the focus is firmly on you and your groom, why not get your teeth whitened together so you’re at your smiley best? There’s loads of dentists who can help make sure your teeth are wedding ready. You won’t be able to stop smiling

after this treatment and the best thing? In-chair whitening only takes about 90 minutes. Subiaco Square Dental 10 Subiaco Square Road, Subiaco or subiacosquaredental.com.au

Hair apparent

It’s so very important that your hair looks amazing for the big day. You’ll be wanting to work with your hair stylist and colourist from approx. six months to a year out to make sure you’re both on the same page with your wedding hair ‘vision’. Whether it’s getting your colour just right or making sure your hair and style is the perfect length to complement your gown, please leave it to the professionals - this is not a box colour type situation! You can trust Adele and the team at Studio A Creative - they even have a make-up artist on hand so you and the girls can get ready to roll (Champagne in hand obviously) in her beautifully serene Shenton Park studio.

Your hands are a big focus on the day (look, sparkly new bling!) so make sure they’re ready for their big moment. If you want to go traditional with a classic French mani pedi or a nude nail, we get it, but these days, you can also have a bit of fun and let your personality shine through. Modern nail art is next level, so embrace some originality. The boys in your bridal party can also get a ‘Manly Mani’ or a ‘Power Pedi’ here if they’re keen. Glamour Nail Bar 423 Hay St, Subiaco. glamournailbar.com.au

Fake it til’ you make it

For that perfect, all over sunkissed glow, head to Ella Bache for one of their classic spray tans. The colour is natural and long lasting and doesn’t smudge or flake. If you really want to treat yourself (go on) then have a pretan body polish first. You’ll be in and out in half an hour (perfect if you're time poor) and you’ll look and feel

amazing (and feel at least 10 per cent skinnier, we promise!). Ella Bache Shop 16, Subiaco Square Shopping Centre or ellabache.com.au

For the boys

If you can convince your boy to have a facial, his skin will thank you for it and a fresh haircut perfectly timed before the big day works wonders too. At Gentlemen’s Hair Lounge, he’ll be able to enjoy a beer, scotch or whisky as he gets his hair done, has a facial and a traditional close shave. There’s also grooming packages available for the boys on the big day. The perfect male ‘groom’ing, one stop shop – what’s not to love about that? If alcohol isn’t his thing and he prefers a coffee, head to His Lid instead. Gentlemen’s Hair Lounge 3/34 Subiaco Square Rd, Subiaco or visit gentlemenshairlounge.com.au His Lid Barber + Lid Espresso Bar 8 Sheen St, Subiaco or hislid.com.au Because you’ve earned it ...

All this pampering can make a girl thirsty . . . So once you’ve attended to all your beauty appointments (and organised everyone else’s!), why not meet up with the girls for a bubbles or a cheeky lunch at Subi hot spot, Storehouse Subiaco at Vibe Hotel? The perfect roof top bar, Storehouse has a glam Palms Spring vibe (pardon the pun!), fancy cocktails and a great view of the city’s skyline.
