In recent episodes of The One Fab Day Wedding Podcast, we’ve led crash courses in wedding dress shopping, bridesmaid dress shopping, guest lists, and honeymoons, and now, it’s time for another biggie - today, we’re talking about all things bridal beauty! This is an area of wedding planning that we get so many questions on, so this week, we're putting those questions to an expert, Aidan Corcoran of the Brown Thomas Beauty Style Team. We've long been huge fans of Aidan's no-nonsense approach to wedding makeup, so we were thrilled to be able to quiz him on all things beauty!

Episode Breakdown: Episode 25: Everything You Need to Know About Bridal Beauty

Wedding tip: Think about tipping - chat to your other half about who you’ll tip ahead of your wedding, how much you’ll tip and make sure you have cash in envelopes ready to go on the day.

Main topic: Regardless of whether you're a full-blown beauty nerd or a makeup-only-on-the-weekend kind of girl, it's only natural to want to feel as confident as possible on the big day, and for many brides, that means wearing makeup. That's why we recruited the help of Aidan Corcoran from the Brown Thomas Beauty Style Team, to offer expert skincare and make-up advice, and tell us about some of his favourite products across the department store's extensive Beauty Hall.

Wedding dilemma: A listener writes, “My best friend in the whole world is pregnant and her due date is 11 days after the wedding. I’m really hoping that she’ll be able to attend but, of course, she’ll have to wait and see how she feels on the day, but I’m wondering, if she does make it, is there anything I can do to make her feel more comfortable? I would love to still include her in the day in some way, too, if possible. We previously asked her to sing at the ceremony but, on her suggestion, we changed things around when she told us about the pregnancy!" 

Something to do when you're not planning your wedding: In the theme of this week’s episode, we're recommending that you treat yourself to a really indulgent pre-wedding beauty treatment.
