Wedding Day Skin Care

Karen Conkel

When picturing your wedding day, you always want to look your absolute best. Brides dream of every tiny detail that will make their day perfect. One detail that simply can never be overlooked is your skin. Everyone wants to have perfect glowing skin as they walk down the aisle.  It is never too early to develop your unique skin care plan for your perfect day. Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields have created a skin care regimen to help you do just that.

RODAN + FIELDS CAN GIVE YOU THE PERFECT SKIN YOU’RE DREAMING ABOUT. It’s always a great thing when you use and believe in a product. It’s always better when other people feel the same way. Rodan + Fields was a feature in Modern Luxury Brides magazine, with a specific focus on our Macro Exfoliator. Stacey Roney, founder of Beauty on Call, elaborates on her experience with the Macro Exfoliator. “The No. 1 request we get from brides is that they want their skin to glow. This at-home tool delivers results unlike anything I have seen in my 25 years in the beauty indus-try. Busy brides appreciate that in five minutes once a week, it rids your skin of 5 million dull skin cells,” said Roney. Beautiful, luminous skin should be an important goal for every Bride-to-Be in

preparing for the most important day of her life. Mothers of the Bride and Groom, the Groom and Wedding Party can all be “picture perfect” on this memorable day. Contact me and I can help you achieve the healthy glow you desire.

The average Manasota bride invests over $2,500 on wedding photos. The way that the bride and groom are posed can change the mood and feel of the photographs, hopefully communicating the joyful emotions of the day. A good photog-rapher can help create that during the photo-shoot, but what about during the wedding itself? Wedding participants should be aware of their posture during the ceremony and recep-tion as these moments are often the ones that result in everyone’s favorite shots. Good pos-ture will help the wedding party appear more confident, attractive, healthier, and thinner; all things that are difficult to correct after-the-fact. Local wedding photographer Sally Ullman says, “I try to coach my brides and educate them about how posture affects the end results. Photoshop can only do so much, and it can be quite costly to edit each photo. There’s no substitute for great posture.”Good posture will have another benefit for the bride during an exhausting day filled with overwhelming emotion: good posture can help increase energy levels and reduce stress.

HERE ARE THREE TIPS TO IMPROVE POSTURE BEFORE THE BIG DAY:

1) PLAN: Bad posture is something that happens little by little over time. It didn’t hap-pen overnight, and it won’t be fixed overnight. Allow enough time for change to take place.

2) GET EXPERT ASSISTANCE: Some massage therapists are postural specialists and can help manually relax and release over-tightened muscles. A personal trainer can help

identify muscle imbalances that are causing poor posture. It can be impossible to stand up straight when the chest muscles are shortened and the back muscles are weak. Dr. Keri Rowe of Rowe Family Chiropractic says, “Posture can be changed! Patients who seek chiropractic care and also see a bodyworker not only have better posture; they have less stress and better health!.”

3) MAKE LIFESTYLE CHANGES: Setting up the home and office environments to encourage proper posture is essential. If the bride slouches all day at work and then sleeps in the wrong position, she will undo a lot of the work she’s done with her posture team. The Internet is a great resource for finding out how to set up an ergonomic work station and find inexpensive necessities such as pillows and lumbar supports.

Lighting Adds WOW Factor to Parties, Events

Jennifer “Lady J.” Sabin is the owner of

LJ Event Production, a Sarasota-based

company that provides stage lighting, sound,

and DJ services.

To get the most bang for your buck, focus on the aspects of your event that your guests will really notice. The best way to capture attention, set a mood and provide a luxurious and memorable experience is the use of lighting. Nothing transforms a room quite like lighting. Uplighting your event space is the most effec-tive way to do this. Typically, LED uplights are programmed to your specific wedding/event colors and remain set on these colors, static, for the duration of the event. However, a trend we are seeing more and more of is an intelligent lighting package that actually transforms the mood of the party throughout the night simply by changing the colors gradually or a complete change of color at different points throughout your event. This kind of lighting can make you feel like you are at different parties all in the same night! Whether you are planning an intimate affair in a small space, or an extravagant party for 500, event lighting, simple or lavish, will not only transform your space, but also the moods of your guests!

leisure TRAVEL& Honeymoons too often take a backseat to the arrangements and plans of the actual wedding, but you owe it to yourself to give honeymoon planning greater and more careful attention. After all, while the wedding is mainly for your family and friends, the once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon that follows is a private getaway for you and your new spouse to celebrate your marriage. Th ough you may spend a portion of your vacation relaxing and refl ecting on this major life change, the honeymoon is most of all an opportunity to enjoy being a newlywed, spending quality time with your new spouse, and experiencing a romantic and exciting get-away. Let Land and Cruise assist you. Honeymooners have endless options. Follow-ing months of wedding planning, couples often retreat to a luxurious resort that caters to their every need, while others trek to an adventurous escape from their day-to-day lives. Whether a beach vacation or a safari, the honeymoon should refl ect your joint personality and wishes. Keep in mind that perfect honeymoons don’t just happen, and planning requires thoughtful-ness, patience, careful attention to details, and a lot of decision-making along the way. Th e more homework you do before leaving for your honeymoon, the more you will enjoy your special vacation. With today’s economy, couples are left with a staycation-type of honeymoon. With our

Honeymoon Gift Registry, http://www.lan-dandcruise.com/pages/registry you can regis-ter for your dream honeymoon and friends and family can deposit money into your registry as their wedding gift to you. Th ey can even pick portions of your honeymoon like a couple’s massage, spa treatments, airport transfers and more. Make this a retreat of a lifetime with the help of your friends and family. Find out more by visiting our website at www.landandcruise.com or contact Lori Guerin for more information: [email protected], 941-773-3415/941-778-9141. Remember the Internet is for looking…Land and Cruise is for booking.

Kara Schlick is no stranger to big tasks or bigger marketing requests. As the co-founder of Physician Marketing and Management, when a client asks Kara for the impossible, she says, “how can I do it even better.” Dr. Sean Castellucci of Urology Partners, sug-gested to Kara that he would like to see a MEN’s health fair done in this area. Her first response was, “It won’t work, men don’t get up on a Satur-day and go to a health fair.” As people in the community know, give Kara a challenge and she will make it happen. “Go huge or go home, Na JUST GO HUGE” Kara says with a smile. The men’s health fair, quickly morphed into the GUY expo where fun meets health. At the event, Kara’s team brought in everything a GUY likes (Lamborghinis, Porsches, trucks, guns, sports, poker, Harleys) and paired them with medical practices. Bullseye Gun Range was paired with The Eye Associates offering free eye screenings. Harley Davidson was paired with The Hearing Centers of SWF, they shared the same client and it was a great match. Bradenton Skin Cancer Center was partnered with the fishing Charter company. Each fun vendor had a partner in the medical field, that way, a man could enjoy what he loved and oh by the way, get health screenings along the way. The expectation was for 1,000 men to attend, but after 3,000 entered, they stopped count-ing. With the enormous success, requests for a woman’s event, that was just as fun and just as big started pouring in. The GAL Expo Saturday, October 4 from 11am to 4pm at the Bradenton Convention

I have been on a long journey of researching many diff erent treatments and skin care lines that fi t my vi-sion in an eff ort to fi nd, what I believe, is the perfect match. We believe our body’s have the ability to heal and repair….with a little boost. Proper skin health education combined with a good regimen always provides results. We are on a mission to empower everyone to take care of their skin without surgical/medical intervention. Our philosophy is based on a clinical approach to skin care. Many factors, including eating habits, life-style, stress, hormonal changes, etc., contribute to skin condi-tions. Th ese factors are explored with our clients and together we formulate a skin care program to address individual needs. Bellagena’s treatments are designed to deliver results. During our consultations we develop specifi c protocols based on the individual client to ensure they are receiv-ing the best service. We use Image Skincare which is an evidence based line, providing professional skin care products and eff ective skin care solutions.

Bellagena Dedicated to Skin Health
