I am getting married next week, in the evening. I don't like dark eyes and dark lips, but I feel that I should go with one. I am fair skinned and my dress color is Oyster, not white. Any help would be appreciated.

Dont over-do it. You should still look like yourself, if you really want to do something like that then go just a shade or two darker than you normally wear on your eyes.

Don't feel like you should wear anything but what you want. If you don't like dark eye and lips, maybe go for one or the other, not both.
Play up your eyes more than your lips. You want your eyes to pop out under that veil. You will be eating, drinking, and kissing a lot. Lipstick touch-ups shouldn't be the main part of your evening.

This one is great, you can use a model or a picture of yourself and try on different hair, makeup with one click. It shows you each change as you make them to get a look like you want.

congratulations!
i'd say a light pink or like smokey eyes to get an intriging gaze
and a clear lip color
or a shade lighter than neutral for lips
and barely any blush but just enough so u can tell it is there
enjoy the married life! im not saying that from personal experience tho
cuz i have no experience cuz im only 13!
but congrats!!!!!

Congrats!
I had my wedding make up airbrushed. It was expensive but stayed on all day and it was totally waterproof (tears, sweat).
If you HAD to pick one, I would have light, golden eyeshadow with eyeliner (unless you never wear eyeliner) and a light peach lipgloss OR a light mauve lipstick. Then the eyeliner is the dark but not too much OR the lipstick is the dark but not too much.

How about some light shimmer colors. You can still be dramatic with shimmer and not have to be wearign dark makeup. Also make sure your mascara is waterproof, tears of happiness will flow! Congrats on your wedding!

Whatever you do, DON'T do anything radically different than you usually do. I can't tell you the number of wedding pictures I've looked at where I thought, "Damn, why did she wear so much make up? She doesn't usually do that." I guess the thinking is you want to look "extra special", but adding a ton of more makeup doesn't do that!

go light. dark lips usually brings your face down. a little smoky eye with a light gloss on your lips would be good. if your excited you prolly wont need blush. I hope you have the best wedding!

Well, when my cousin got married, I was the flower girl :) and she went to this hair dresser place.. and her and all the brides maids, and me, got our hair done.
And, i dont know if this is true for all places, but this place had a woman who did her makeup for her. So, if you find a place that has someone to do your make up, go there, so you can tell them that you dont want alot of dark makeup. they will make it look perfect, and just the way you want it.
*btw, congrats :)
