On your wedding day, you want to look young and glowing with health and happiness. You'll want your pictures to reflect that same feeling. The last thing you want is to have circles around your eyes making you look old and hag ridden.

Circles around the eyes are caused by lack of sleep, allergies, stress or malnutrition. The best medicine is prevention as they say. Don't wait until you are worn out before going to bed. Make it a point to have at least 8 hours of sleep at night. If you're a party person you may be objecting but if you really want to have great eyes at your wedding, you'll hit the sack early.

Drink lots of water to keep your body hydrated. The skin around the eyes requires a lot of moisture which is why so many eye creams and gels have been created. Each one aims to help you prevent wrinkles and blotches appearing around the windows to your soul which would make you look like an old lady.

If you can afford to, see a dermatologist. Don't wait until the last minute to go visit. Depending on the state of your skin, treatments can take weeks, even months if you really want to achieve that perfect clear skin and wrinkle-free eyes.

On the wedding day itself, your best friend to get your face perfect is your make up artist. Make sure that you hire a professional. She should know how to minimize the dark circles and wrinkles without slapping on tons of makeup on you. Do expect that she may put more color than your used to as she highlights your eyes as well by subtly blending in various shades.
