If you're getting married in the next 6 months, here's what we've learned from prepping dozens of brides at Avera Beauty: the women who look their best on the wedding day aren't the ones who book a big package the week before. They're the ones who plan early, build a rhythm, and treat beauty prep like training — not a last-minute cram.
This month-by-month timeline walks through exactly what to book, when, and why.
