You've bought the perfect dress and all the fabulous accessories to go with it, but in order to make sure that you look your absolute best on your wedding day, your hair and make-up need to complement the outfit you are wearing.

So in order to make sure that your hair is your crowning glory and not a frizzy mess, and that your make-up makes you look glowing rather than a sweating nervous wreck, it's worth calling in the professionals.

Mila Spa, in Acomb, York, specialises in bridal hair and make-up packages, as well as offering plenty of health and beauty treatments, from massages to facials and waxing to tanning.

With hairdressing stations, beauty rooms, a St Tropez tanning room and a nail bar which seats up to four people, there are plenty of options to make sure you feel gorgeous.

And, as if that isn't enough, the spa also benefits from a whirlpool, sauna and steam room upstairs, so that you can relax to your heart's content.

Owner Jo Millner says that it is the ideal complement to her bridal shop, Mila Brides, which is situated a few doors down from the spa, as brides and hens can go along to the spa for some serious pampering before, and on, the big day.

When it comes to weddings, Mila Spa's ethos is the same of that of Mila Brides – to ensure you have the best service, get the advice you need at the times you need it and that your experience is stress free and also cost effective for you and your whole wedding party.

Brides-to-be can discuss their wedding requirements with one of the experienced hair and/or beauty therapists over a coffee or a glass of wine and they can tailor a package that fits their needs. Mila Brides also have dedicated planning consultants that can assist you should you require it.

They also have a number of great offers when it comes to booking bridal hair and makeup – see www.milaspa.co.uk for details.
