Background: I live in Michigan and work a desk job. I'm getting married this May in New York wearing a low back ivory dress with thin straps crossing the back. I'm white and look very white after the winter.
How do you choose what to do with your nails for your wedding? My nails aren't great and start to split when they aren't very long. I don't bite them, they just aren't the toughest things. I've never gotten a true manicure before and I'm at a complete loss at what to do. How do I figure out what I want? How many times should I go to a salon before? I'm quite stumped here.
And second, tanning. I know, it's terrible for you. BUT I cannot look ghost white in my pictures! There is next to no way I can tan outside before the wedding (again, Michigan, snow...) but even if I could, I'd end up with lines. I don't really want to do spray tan because I'm positive I'd mess it up. How many times should you go before the big day? What do I need to know before I go?
