Del Sol is doing our TTD this June. I just picked up my TTD back from the seamstress today!!!

 

It was a sample dress I bought for $150.

Overall it was in good shape...but I hated the dipped neckline and had her repair the bead work.

Hola Julie,

 

Super excited for our upcoming shoot and loving your nice flowy dress!! I thought I should take the opportunity to offer a few tips:

 

- Practice feeling comfortable underwater and holding your breath, maybe even opening your eyes underwater. This helps a lot!!!! You can either practice in your bath tub at home or in the swimming pool of your hotel.

- Bring your veil and anything with a pop of color (lipstick, pedicure, bouquet??). Our latests mermaid brides have dared to swim with their heels, looks amazing underwater!!!!!!!

- Get your hair and make-up done professionally (preferably waterproof) and bring a little make-up bag for retouches in between locations ; )

- Please ask your beau to wear linen, khaki, or cotton pants. A cotton shirt or button up will do. As long as its breaths and it's comfortable. Remember you will get wet - pink and black polka dot boxers under wet khaki linen pants are funny to some but not every one (just a tip!).

- Please please please wear sunblockWear it the whole time you are here, but especially the day of your shoot.The sun's rays are very strong here and will burn unprotected skin quicker than you could ever imagine! 

- Bring towels, a plastic bag for your dress, and a change of clothes ; )

- Drink lots of bottled water, eat a healthy and hearty meal a few hours before, and get plenty of rest the night before your shoot - you're going to need all of the hydration, nourishment and energy you can muster to make this a great shoot!

These sessions are all about having fun, enjoying each others love and getting creative.

Can't wait!!!!

Matt -

 

Thank you so much for these tips!! I never thought of wearing my heels underwater, I love that idea.

Ok, no polka dot boxers for him...but what about me? Will I need to go commando to not show thong/panty lines?!?!

 

Can't wait :) See you soon.
