The Bride Guide: Wedding Prep At Giddie Skin

Wedding Season: Your No-Stress Timeline for Glowing Skin

Because your skin deserves to glow on your big day.

Wedding planning comes with a lot of decisions—chicken or fish, peonies or daisies, summer or fall. But the easiest one? Investing in yourself to feel confident come wedding day.

Whether you’ve got a year to prep or are just a few months away (don’t worry, we got you!), here’s the roadmap to follow for glowing, radiant. “wait, is she airbrushed?” skin.

6-12 Months Out: Let’s Get Started

It begins here—and earlier is always better when it comes to achieving next-level glow.

  • Consultation: book a consult and our providers will create a personalized treatment plan based on your skin goals, comfort level, and timeline.

  • Start (or tweak) Your Skincare Routine: A strong at-home routine lays the foundation for the glow to come.

  • Begin Advanced Treatments: This is the window for deeper, more transformative options such as

    • Laser Treatment (for redness, dark spots, etc.)

    • Chemical Peel (to resurface, brighten, + treat texture, pigment, etc.)

    • Microneedling (for collagen boosting + smoothing)

7 Months Out: Time For Round 1

Now is when we start with Botox and Filler.

  • Botox + Filler: smooth fine lines, subtly enhance lips or cheeks, and restore youthful volume where you need it. This initial appointment allows your face time to settle into perfect, natural-looking results.

4 Months Out: Tweak + Perfect

Refinement is the name of the game.

  • Touch-Up Botox + Filler (if needed): small adjustments now will keep your look fresh, but still you.

  • Kybella: if contouring your jawline was one of your goals now is the time to act—results will appear gradually and you need some time to heal.

  • BioRePeel: a light refresh for any skin treatments you had previously received—boost skin clarity and texture without the downtime.

1 Month Out: Lock It In

This is the last stop for injectables.

  • Time for Tox: refresh your Botox and allow it to settle just in time for your wedding day.

3 Weeks Out: Skincare Only Zone

Put down the needles and lasers, this is the time to chill + hydrate.

  • Focus on your skincare routine and prioritize hydration.

  • Skip the invasive treatments—calm skin is the goal, not stressed.

Wedding Week: Keep It Cool (literally)

This is your time to glow.

  • Hydrafacial: the holy grail of no-downtime radiance—watch your makeup glide on like a dream and soak in that post facial glow!

  • Hydrate + Cool: now is the time to incorporate cool packs and hydrating products to reduce puffiness, soothe the skin, and feel your best.

  • Prioritize Sleep + Water Intake: the ultimate beauty secrets—these matter more than you think. It is essential that your body is hydrated and well-rested on your wedding day, take this week to relax and prioritize yourself!
