How Long Will Bruising Last After Liposuction of Muffin Top/ Love Handles?

5455anon
I'm getting liposuction done on my muffin top/love handles towards the end of this month. Since it is such a sensitive area, I was wondering how much bruising there will be and how soon it will go away? I'm getting married the month after and dont want to go on my honeymoon with a bruised body.
