Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. Keep with the aloe, and I have also heard that vinegar (just plain white vinegar) dabbed on with a cottonball can help reduce the redness. However that may just be an old wives tale. (I too am getting married on June 12, Good luck).

I have very light skin and even when I take tons of precautions I burn. If you peel, as soon as you start, use a loofah to help the process along. You may not want to be as gentle as you usually are with it. It may not be the most recommended way to get rid of the dead skin, but it is effective. It may cut the peeling time in half.

You should be fine in 11 days. Drink lots of water -- as much as you can get and apply aloe like it`s going out of style. But honestly, you should be fine, and tan, by the time your wedding day comes along.
Best wishes!
