GETTING HITCHED?!
You’ve found the right place! The team at TBC are wedding tan experts! We've had brides and grooms featured in: Trends Wedding Magazine (cover), Washingtonian Weddings, Martha Stewart Weddings, British Vogue & more!
Same great package...just a new name!
We use a non-bronzer, clear solution on all brides to prevent bronzers or dyes from rubbing off onto your dress.
This specific formula works to mimic your own skin tone to appear a few shades darker, without the use of any cosmetic dyes.
Bridal tip: We recommend getting your dress dry-cleaned after the big day! Although we do use a non-bronzer formula for brides, this does not guarantee there won't be any residue from your skin.
Absolutely! Every single session is completely customized to your desired darkness and undertone.
We will have a pre-consult with you before the session begins to ensure we are meeting your needs for the big day!
You can book both your trial and final tan using the "Wedding Package" option on our booking site.
You will need to book these appointments separately, as you are not able to book both at once since each session will be completed on different days.
Don't worry, your card is not charged and you will pay for each tan at the time of your appointment ($80 each).
Sure! Brides & Grooms can book their final wedding tan 90 days before the big day (one month before our calendar opens for everyone else)!
Please email us at hello@bronzecollective.com with your desired date AND time for your final tan *after you have booked your trial online!
*If your wedding is within 60 days, please book your final session on your own using our online booking system 🙂
Absolutely!
Absolutely! We require a trial tan for all of our brides.
Book your trial tan a minimum of 2-6 weeks before your wedding. The Bronzed Bride 2 pack includes one trial tan and one for the big day and saves you about $30!
We are the bridal tanning experts and want your tan to be flawless for the big day!
If you've tanned with us in the past, you can also use that session as your trial tan.
Absolutely! For those who live out of town or do not have time for a trial tan, please contact our salon at 760-683-9189 (text preferred).
Sorry, this one you'll have to do on your own using our online booking system!
Our calendar opens 60 days in advance for booking.
We recommend tanning anywhere from 2-4 days before your wedding.
Sure! Brides & Grooms can book their final wedding tan 90 days before the big day (one month before our calendar opens for everyone else)!
Please email us at hello@bronzecollective.com with your desired date AND time for your final tan *after you have booked your trial online!
*If your wedding is within 60 days, please book your final session on your own using our online booking system 🙂
The Wedding Package offers $30 in savings and includes the following:

Our calendar opens 60 days in advance for booking, but don't forget that brides & grooms can book their final wedding tan 90 days before the big day! This is 30 days before our calendar opens for everyone else and allows you to secure the time and date of your choice.
*Please email hello@bronzecollective.com with your desired date and time for your final wedding tan, but you must have your trial booked with us first. If your wedding is within 60 days, please book this on your own using our online booking system 🙂
Nope! We use a nail protectant before every single session, especially for our brides! We also use a non-cosmetic bronzer solution (clear tan) with zero dyes for bridal tans, so your freshly manicured nails are safe with us! Additionally, each nail is wiped clean upon completion of the appointment.
*Don't forget to complete your mani/pedi (and literally all other beauty appointments) before your tan!
Prepping your skin is key for a flawless tan result 🙂 Please refer to our "tan prep and aftercare" tab for step-by-step instructions for preparing your skin for the tan.
Nope! The card entered when booking is only used to hold your appointment. You will pay for each session when we see you in the studio ($80 each time)!
Woohoo! Next, you will rinse with water at the time your technician advised you to and take a full shower (with soap) 24 hours later.
Then, we want you to assess your tan on the day your technician advises. This is usually the same amount of days out from your wedding that you will be getting your final tan (i.e. usually 2-4 days).
Assess your tan darkness in natural lighting and wearing something white (or whatever color you'll be rocking for the big day!) so you can let us know when you come back if you'd like to make any adjustments for the final tan appointment.
Don't worry, this is actually very common with us!
We keep plenty of notes from each session, so having two different technicians is totally fine!
No problem!
Trial tan a bit too dark, or not quite enough? Your technician will have a pre-consult with you before your final bridal appointment begins to see if you'd like to make any changes from your trial tan session.
We keep thorough formula notes after each session (especially for our brides!) to ensure we can get your color perfect for the big day.
Of course! We have a "tan line correction" add-on (+$10) that you can add to any spray tan option where we use a special gun to blend those stubborn tan lines away!
Make sure to let your technician know when you arrive that you would like to add this to your booking!
The Bridal package discount is only available for studio tans at this time, however, we do have group discounts available for your mobile tan party!
Nope 🙂 The package is for one-time use only.
The entire process will take less than 30 minutes.
Nope, you will see them fully.
About 2-4 weeks before the big day is best!
Your results will last about 6 months to 1 year with proper aftercare 🙂
Use the green "add service" button when booking online! See below:
