NIGHT BEFORE NOTES:

  1. Hydrate. It will be a long and fun weekend, so start drinking water now.

  2. Steam or iron tonight. Make sure dresses, shirts, and suits are pressed before the morning. The planning team will also be there to help with this in the morning.

  3. Pack ahead. Gather all accessories, jewelry, undergarments, and both pairs of shoes (heels and comfortable flats).

  4. Face and hair prep. Arrive with a clean, dry face and clean, dry hair. This makes hair and makeup go faster and last longer.

  5. Sleep. Aim for a good night’s rest so you are fresh for photos and ready to celebrate
