Your description sounds like you may have some compromised skin barrier contributing to the redness.  Be sure to use a gentle cleanser such as Cetaphil or CeraVe.  You may also try CeraVe lotion for your face twice daily to see if that helps.  I have found Skinceuticals Redness Relief to be helpful.  If you have visible blood vessels then having several IPL treatments can help those improve.Good luck with your wedding planning!

Facial veins can be treated a number of ways including laser, sclerotherapy and  fine needle RF.  In your case, however, you should see a dermatologist to address the skin issues which in turn may improve the vein problems.
