Bridal Spray Tan Timeline: When to Get Your Wedding Tan
Your wedding tan should look natural, even, and completely settled by the time you walk down the aisle. For Long Island brides, the key is simple: plan your trial ahead of time and schedule your final bridal spray tan about 2 days before your wedding.
At Tan Haus, we specialize in customized bridal airbrush tanning throughout Long Island, including Huntington, Northport, Dix Hills, Commack, Centerport, East Northport, and surrounding areas.
3–4 Weeks Before Your Wedding: Bridal Trial Tan
Your bridal trial is the time to find your perfect color before wedding week.
We'll customize your tan based on your natural skin tone, the look you're going for, and your wedding-day vision. A trial gives you the opportunity to see how your color develops, photographs, and looks with your dress and makeup.
It's also the perfect time to decide whether you prefer our Classic or Rapid Airbrush Tan for your wedding day.
1 Week Before Your Wedding: Keep Your Skin Happy
Leading up to your wedding tan, focus on keeping your skin smooth and hydrated.
Avoid experimenting with new skincare products and protect your skin from excessive sun exposure. A fresh sunburn or uneven tan lines can make it more difficult to achieve a seamless bridal glow.
If you're planning waxing, facials, or other exfoliating beauty treatments, schedule them before your spray tan.
The Day Before Your Tan: Prep
The day before your spray tan:
Exfoliate thoroughly
Shave if needed
Remove old self-tanner
Avoid heavy lotions and oils afterward
Arrive at your appointment with clean, dry skin and without lotion, deodorant, perfume, or other products that could interfere with the tan.
2 Days Before Your Wedding: Your Bridal Glow
This is the sweet spot.
We recommend scheduling your final bridal spray tan 2 days before your wedding. This gives your color time to develop and settle into a natural, even glow before your wedding day.
For brides choosing a Rapid Airbrush Tan, your rinse time is customized based on your desired color and skin tone.
By wedding day, your tan has had time to develop and your cosmetic bronzer has been rinsed away — leaving you with the soft, natural-looking color you actually want to see in your wedding photos.
The Day Before Your Wedding: Hydrate
Once you've completed your rinse, keep your skin moisturized and hydrated.
Avoid anything that could unnecessarily exfoliate or strip your color. This is also the day to relax, finish your beauty appointments, and enjoy the fact that your bridal glow is already taken care of.
Wedding Day: Just Glow
Your tan should feel like the easiest part of your wedding-day beauty routine.
No last-minute tanning. No worrying about whether the color will develop in time. Just your custom TH Bridal Glow, settled and ready for the aisle.
