We all want to look perfect–all day–on our wedding day. But with all the kissing, and hugging, and dancing, AND eating, you just never know what might happen.
Of course, the key to avoiding any last minute bridal beauty emergencies is planning ahead. So, about a week before the wedding, go on a little shopping adventure and make sure you have the essentials:
**a travel pack of tissues
**cotton swabs and perhaps a makeup sponge to erase any smudges before you walk down the aisle
**pressed powder and your favorite lipstick for touch-ups (your makeup artist probably won’t be there to touch you up all day, so keep these with you)
**eye drops
**deodorant
**hairspray and brush/comb
**a few hairpins
**toothbrush/toothpaste
**concealer (let’s hope you don’t need it, but just in case…)
Give your beauty bag to one of your bridesmaids for safe keeping — and safe arrival — at the reception. Ask her to keep it with her purse should you need anything; reception sites often have a room set aside for the bridal party’s personal things.
Now, go enjoy your day knowing that if there’s a last minute mishap (at least with your makeup or hair), you are prepared!
