Tips for brides

Hello brides to be:
As a photographer I want to point out some tips to help you look perfect on your special day.
Tan marks is a NO NO, make sure that when you want to tan in Aruba's sun to wear a bathingsuit that matches your dress detail. Many brides have a strapless dress and on their wedding day walk down the aisle with a halter suntan.
Thats not all though, have you ever looked at a photo of your summer vacation and said to yourself Wow I look great in a tan, well I did too but not on your wedding day because depending on your skin tone you might be a little saturated in photos or be to tanned next to your parents & guests in photos.
I have many brides who wish I could of told them previously but because many brides go through coordinators I do not have a chance to personally speak to them until they walk down the aisle.
Enjoy the Aruba sun, wear sunblock and remember to remind your guests that we are close to the equator and with Aruba's wind you don't feel the sun's penetration until it's to late.
Pack Aloe Vera Gel with Lidocaine in your luggage it is under $6.00 and it releives sunburn fast.
Hawaiian Tropic Cool Aloe I.C.E. Lidocaine Gel
Walgreens Aloe Vera Pain Relieving Gel with Lidocaine & Menthol
So many times I walk into a brides room and find a flower girl or bridesmaid crying of the pain and Aloe is no where to be found. So enjoy Aruba and all it has to offer with sunblock

Angela's blog was just a LIFE SAVER! No joke as the 1 thing I am clueless about (and no, I am not kidding) is my hair.

Up-do yes, trial appointment scheduled for 10 days from now, yes. Clue on what to do for up-do... NOOOOOO

So I go to the blog and BAM...there it is! Many BEAUTIFUL up-do's that I would be thrilled with! Thank you! This helped SOOO much!
