-Always get your feet measured before buying your wedding shoes. Your feet have changed since the age of 6!
-Always buy new shoes in the afternoon or early evening when your feet are at their largest. Feet swell during the day.
-Cover new shoes with cut off tights, wear them everyday for 15/30 mins to break them in at least a month before the wedding.
-Before the photo shake out your hands, gently place them on your hip or bouquet so that they look beautiful, not like a claw!
-In photos, stand at an angle with one foot slightly in front of the other. If feet are together you will look flat and wide.
-Perfection doesn't exist so stop striving for the perfect wedding. Celebrate, have fun, eat, laugh and enjoy the ride!
-Wearing a veil makes you feel different and requires a bit of practice. So put one on and practice now. It will pay off!
-Clean, shaped eyebrows open the eyes and create a wider eye they look better in the photos and you look rested and relaxed.
-Choose a creamy white dress so that it doesn't create glare when photographed and it's kinder to the skin tone.
-Don't follow make up trends for your bridal make up. Stick to a classic look and your photos will be timeless.
-In photos don't keep both arms entirely straight, bend one or both to create space between the arm and body.
-In photos rest most of your weight on one foot or the other. This looks less posey and gives a slight slimming effect.
-Focus on what you want to happen on your wedding day, not what you don't want to happen. You get what you wish for.
-When walking up the aisle please, please, please look up at your guests and your fiancé. Smile and they will smile back at you.

I already had a bridal coaching session with Michele and would highly recommend it. You spend so much on photography, your dress etc... It's good to know how to work it on the day.
