The Day Before Your Wedding: Get a Mani-Pedi This is one part of your bridal beauty regimen that you can procrastinate a little. Get manis and pedis done the day before -- not a few days before or the day of the wedding, Schlip recommends. You don't want to have imperfections in your polish -- especially for those close-up shots of your hands and rings. If you really want to avoid chips, try a gel manicure. It's completely dry when the manicure is done and will stay chip free for at least a week (which is great for your honeymoon as well -- no need to pack polish or remover).

I'd agree with everything but the Botox unless you're a woman of a certain age

Be careful about SPF in makeup though--some kinds can give your face a whitish cast in photographs.
