Bridal Buzz

While most pre-wedding boot camps will have you busting your bridal bum, Riviera Spa’s version of boot camp is a bit more, shall we say, enticing. For six months, brides will stick to a strict wellness and beauty regimen to help make them relaxed, radiant and picture perfect! The bridal package includes:

• 9 facials
• 6 body exfoliations and body wraps
• 1 wax package
• 1 massage,
• 1 airbrush tan
• 1 spa manicure/spa pedicure
• 2 makeup applications (1 rehearsal application)
• 1 dry hair sculpting
• 2 wedding day styles (1 rehearsal style)

I recently got to experience the spa firsthand (and meet the new owners) for their organic fall facial and aromatherapy massage, and I can say without a doubt that they have some of the most comfortable robes of all time. Their couples room is tucked away in the back with a grand fireplace acting as the cozy centerpiece. Although they only have about three slots for pedicures, this would be a great place to treat your closest friends for some pre-wedding pampering. Oh, and if you purchase a bridal package you can choose from add-on services like dance lessons or makeup lessons (they’re the only spa in town to sell Jane Iredale cosmetics!). Don’t forget to ask about their groom’s package too! When booking a package, make sure to mention BridalBuzz for a 15 percent discount! —Kristy Alpert
