The Luminous Testify.
“Jana absolutely transformed how I felt in my dress. My tan was soft, even, and so natural that everyone thought I’d just come back from vacation. It photographed beautifully from every angle and gave me the confidence to be fully present and glowing the entire day.”

BRIDAL QUESTIONS
Brides Ask. We Answer.
When should I schedule my trial appointment?
2–3 weeks before your wedding date. This gives you time to see your exact result, provide feedback, and for us to document the precise formula and rinse window before your final appointment.
When is the final spray tan appointment before the wedding?
3 days before the ceremony. This gives your bronze full development time, a complete first rinse, and a 24-hour settling period — so your color is at its most refined and photograph-ready when you walk down the aisle.
Will the tan transfer to my dress?
Rest assured, our bridal formulas are designed for zero transfer risk. The cosmetic guide color is thoroughly rinsed away days before your wedding, leaving only a flawless, silk-safe glow.
Can you accommodate my entire bridal party?
Yes. We coordinate full bridal party sessions — managing the timing so every person in your party receives a consistent, cohesive result. Contact us to arrange group scheduling.
What if my skin is sensitive?
Bronze Organics is our most hypoallergenic formula — walnut-derived, botanical, vegan, and fragrance-minimal. Perfectly Clear removes all cosmetic dyes for the purest possible application. Both are safe for sensitive skin and are our top bridal recommendations.
Do you work with wedding photographers for timing?
Yes. We coordinate with photographers, planners, and venues to ensure your bronze timing aligns with your shoot schedule and ceremony timeline. Contact us with your vendor team details.
