Every bride dreams of that radiant, sun-kissed glow that lasts from “yes” to “I do.” Recently, we had the incredible pleasure of partnering with Cynthia, the powerhouse and artist behind Legendary Glo Spray Tans here in Greenville, South Carolina. Cynthia shared her expert insights on how to achieve, and keep, that luminous look leading up to your big day. Here’s everything you need to know to make your glow truly legendary.
1. Timing Is Everything
For the most natural results, Cynthia recommends booking your spray tan two to three days before your special event or wedding day. This allows your tan to fully develop and settle into your skin’s natural tone, ensuring a flawless finish for your photos and celebration.

2. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate
Healthy skin is glowing skin. In the days leading up to your appointment, stay intentionally hydrated and moisturized. A spray tan lasts much longer on skin that’s well-nourished and balanced. Since the color develops in your outer layer of skin cells, hydration helps extend your tan’s life and creates a soft, even fade.
3. The Day Of: Keep It Simple
On the day of your appointment, avoid applying body sprays, lotions, or perfumes, anything that might interfere with the tan’s absorption. Opt for loose-fitting clothing, no shoes (except flip-flops), and no jewelry during the marinating process. Tight fabrics or straps can leave marks on your fresh glow!

4. Trust the Glow Expert
“We can’t wait to meet you and celebrate with you. It’s your story, babe. Make it legendary!”
