Pre-wedding spa treatments/couples massage?

kaylarae, on July 25, 2014 at 11:45 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 12

Hey ladies I'm just curious as to what kind of spa or beauty treatments you're having done before the big day??

FH are thinking of going for a couples massage on the Wednesday or Thursday before the wedding (Saturday). I don't want to spend a whole lot of money on these things so I'm keeping my eyes open on groupon/living social. I was thinking of doing the pedicure myself unless I find a really good deal. I'm gonna have my nails done too. Was also thinkin of taking FH for a manicure because guys should be pampered too! Or I guess I could give him one too so we'll see

What are you ladies doing to spoil yourself before the big day?!

    We are both getting manis/pedis two days beforehand. I'm also making him clean up his unruly eyebrows and I'm getting a wax as well. We got a really nice Nordstrom gift card from a friend so we are putting it to good use at their spa Smiley smile

    FH has never had a massage so I would like to take him for a couples massage just before all the craziness begins

    Probably couples massage and I'll ask him if he'd consider doing a manicure. He probably would want to so he looked good.

    Definitely keep checking Groupon. They always have good deals by me.

    Couples massage the week of the wedding. I have a membership at a spa and arranged to use my credits for a couples' massage. FH has never had a professional massage before. He's excited

    I really want a whole spa day! When I'm overly stressed, I tend to either get a cold sore or hives, so I definitely need the calmest week of my life the week of my wedding lol!!

    I'm doing mani/pedis with my BM the day before but after seeing this I looked at FH and asked if he wanted to go for a massage so I guess we're doing that two days before! Thanks for the idea

    FH is also a licensed massage therapist. I'll probably ask him for one before the wedding. And even though I'm not great at the hands on massage, I'm really good at walking on his back! So we'll probably stay home and relax with some wine. Smiley smile

    However, I am going to get a mani/pedi with my BMs and both moms about a week before the wedding.

    Mani/pedi for me but that's it. Unless he wants to join me and my best friend. He loves pedi.

    That sounds fun! I am not really doing anything. Probably doing some kind of hand soak/moisturizer thing at home and painting my own nails clear. I didn't want the extra expense or appointments surrounding my wedding.

    I would LOVE to do a couples massage but I'm too paranoid because FH doesn't react well to them (wtf, right? He went all zombie for like two days last time) and I've heard if you have lots of toxins released you can get sort of sick. Maybe it's all just hippytalk or my hypochondriac coming out though.

    So mani/pedi with mom and friends it is!

    @Lyssa - so have you heard of people getting sick after massages?? (since your FH is a massage therapist)
