Will my spray tan stain my wedding dress?

No, it won't! To avoid any potential staining, we recommend scheduling your bridal airbrush spray tan appointment at least 48 hours before your wedding. This gives your tan enough time to fully develop and settle into your skin. After your tan has developed, rinse off the initial layer of cosmetic bronzer color during your first shower.

The developed tan will not come off easily and will last for 6 to 10+ days, until your skin naturally exfoliates. However, if your dress has a tight fit or built-in bra that may rub against your skin, there is a chance of some transfer. This is not common, but if it occurs, it can be easily removed during dry cleaning.

*PRO TIP: Apply a light layer of powder on areas that may rub or sweat excessively to prevent any friction transfer.


Will I end up with an orange tone after getting a spray tan?

This is a common concern, but rest assured that at Vanilla Sugar, we use only the highest quality sunless tanning solutions derived from natural and organic ingredients. As a professionally trained spray tan artists, we conduct a detailed skin consultation during our first meeting to understand your skin type and desired look. You can even show us a photo of your natural sun-kissed glow or a sunless tan that you like, and we'll create a custom-blended solution that matches your desired tone. With our expertise and quality products, you can achieve a natural-looking tan that will enhance your beauty on your big day.

How long will my spray tan last?

With appropriate pre-tan preparation and aftercare, a bridal airbrush tan can last for 6-10+ days.

Other Bridal Spray Tanning Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How long does the spray tanning appointment take?

A: If this is your first appointment with us, we will conduct a detailed skin consultation to determine your desired color, select the location to set up, spray tan, dry, provide aftercare information, and pack which takes approximately 45 minutes. For the Wedding Tan appointment, it will only take 30 minutes.

Q: Will a spray tan cover my tattoo?

A: No, a spray tan will not cover your tattoo completely. Your tattoo will still be visible, but the color intensity may be slightly reduced due to the bronzing effect of the spray tan. If you want to make your tattoo stand out, consider getting a spray tan that will complement your skin tone and enhance the colors of your tattoo.

Q: How Do I prepare for my appointment at your spa?

Here are some tips to prepare for your Bridal Sunless Tan:

  • Hydrate yourself by drinking plenty of water leading up to your Bridal Spray Tan.

  • Exfoliate your skin several days before your appointment and moisturize with a water-based moisturizer.

  • Take a shower at least 4 to 12 hours before your appointment and make sure your skin is clean and dry at the time of your appointment.

  • Avoid getting a sunburn or extreme tan lines prior to your wedding.

Q: How many days before my wedding should I schedule my spray tan?
