Attention all you brides out there! Are you feeling a little overwhelmed with the wedding planning process? While you no doubt have a ton of things on your wedding to-do list, one thing a bride must do: RELAX and enjoy this special time! As someone who recently tied the knot, I know all too well the amount of time and energy that goes into planning a wedding, so hopefully I can help to alleviate some stress with a few suggestions:
- Set up a series of facial appointments to get your skin ready for all those pictures! Your esthetician can recommend the best products to help you work toward your skincare goals at home.
- Your wedding is a special time to enjoy with friends and family so make sure you get quality time together. How about asking your future mother-in-law or sister-in-law to join you for your next mani/pedi appointment?
- Schedule massages to work out those tie-the-knots in you
shoulders. I’d highly recommend the Stress Reliever! - Want a natural-looking tan? Try the Infinity Spray Tan at our Brea location to get an all over, even glow for the big day.
- Need flawless makeup for engagement photos, the bridal shower or The Big Day? Call us to schedule your appointment in Brea.
- Grab your best girls and spend an entire day relaxing in one of our cabanas at the Hot Springs. Cabanas are perfect for bridal showers and bachelorette parties – call and ask for Georgia and she’ll help you plan your day. Your cabana concierge will take care of your party all day so everyone can simply relax and enjoy!
- Bring your fiance to the spa for some quality time together. Leave the bridal magazines and checklists at home and take a day for just the two of you to enjoy each other’s company.
If you’re still in planning mode and want to check out some great vendors, make sure to stop by the Brea Bridal Show on January 30 from 11-3 to get some inspiration, vendor contacts, and of course, visit Glen Ivy’s booth for a chance to win some pre-wedding pampering prizes!
We’ll also be at the following bridal shows coming up so stop by to say hello:
Jan. 31 – Coyote Hills Bridal Show (Fullerton, CA)
Feb. 18 – Corona Public Library Bridal Show (Corona, CA)
We’d love to hear from you: Have you been to a bridal shower or bachelorette party at Glen Ivy? What’s your special memory of wedding festivities at Glen Ivy?
I should start out by saying that Elizabeth and I are both pretty tan but with the summer sun fading away so is the sunkissed look we love.
Here’s how it went:
The first step to ensuring an even spray tan is showering with a scrub to fully exfoliate your body. After we scrubbed, the spray tan was applied by a trained spa professional (Melissa, one of the massage therapists did ours – thanks, Melissa!) with a hand-held spray over the entire body (face optional – we did!). The tanning experience was fairly quick, lasting about 10 minutes including the aloe-based neutralizer spray primer to help the skin absorb the tan evenly and last longer. Because a spa professional applies the formula with attention to detail to make sure it’s even and smooth, the time will likely vary slightly for every person (unlike a machine). As with any tanning product, you should wait until everything is completely set and dry before redressing. I’d also recommend wearing darker, loose fitting clothes.
Results:
At first Elizabeth and I only noticed a slight difference in our skin tone but the next day our natural-looking golden brown glow was back!

I’m so excited to tell you about the new body treatment for fall at Glen Ivy Day Spas in Brea and Valencia – the Fall Into Bliss body treatment features Farmhouse Fresh products, which are absolutely amazing!

Yesterday Jennifer and I took a trip up to Spa Salon at the Hot Springs to play with the new Farmhouse Fresh products and we immediately “oooohed” and “ahhhhed” when we saw the display and unbelievably cute packaging (there’s a box that says “Our cows eat cookies”–too fun!). We didn’t waste any more time before we began our usual routine when testing out new products. The salon staff were quickly alongside us encouraging us to “Smell this one!” and “Wait…you HAVE to try that one!”
Meanwhile, Jennifer was lathering on Sweet Cream Body Milk, smelling her arms, and raving about the adorable the glass pour-spout cruet packaging. Here’s a neat detail: the products are signed by ther person that handpackaged them. By the end of our visit to the Spa Salon we came out smelling sweet and feeling soft! In our book, products that give us our sugar fix AND smooth skin are always welcome!
