A beach destination wedding is a great excuse to turn the trip into a vacation with friends and family. Picture this: you arrive a few days early and want to make the most of it.
You spend all day by the pool and on the beach with your guests. Then you notice the sunglasses and cute swimsuit you wore left tan lines that will absolutely show, because your wedding dress is strapless. Add a sunburned, peeling face to the mix, and you'll need far more makeup than you'd hoped to even things out.
Plan ahead: bring a hat, plenty of sunscreen, a swimsuit with a similar neckline to your dress, and skip any jewelry that could leave marks. A little planning goes a long way toward giving you the peace of mind to actually relax and enjoy those pre-wedding days.
