Hangover Helpers

The day after your party, your guests are bound to be feeling a little under the weather.  

 

Treat them to a Hangover Helper gift tote to help ease their pain.  For those DIY Hosts: use a charming retro ice bag like the ones from Gal Pal below and fill it with things like: a packet of Excedrin, a bottle of water, a pretty sleeping mask, a package of crackers, sunglasses, coffee sachet or even bloody mary mix.  

Don’t want to DIY?  Check out the hangover kits at Hangover Kits.com .  Have your hotel deliver these while the reception is in full swing so your guests have it when they wake up the next morning!

Be Careful- Do Nothing New

Here are ten things you should not do the week before your wedding (collected from real life tragedies):

distressed bride

1. Try a new food (hello allergic reaction)
2. Wax anything you have never waxed before (bumpy red irritated skin… and itching)
3. Cook in the middle of the night (hello second degree burns – on my face!)
4. Overeat (it is a tight white dress after all)
5. Starve (it can be a loose white dress if you are not careful – and you can faint)
6. Do anything too sporty (although the cast is white too – it just doesn’t look so good with the dress)
7. Try new makeup (see number 1 and number 3)
8. Get a hair cut from a new beautician (I think this one is a no brainer)
9. Stay awake and worry (no makeup can hide truly dark circles)
10. Forget that it is just a party (down Bridezilla! – down girl!).
