Bridal Beauty Survival Kit

Staying fresh and fab is every bride's goal on her wedding day.  A bridal survival kit is just what you need to stay looking your best. It should contain everything you need for your wedding day from pre aisle butterflies to runny mascara and stained dresses. Spread the items among your bridesmaids so you'll never be without your tools in a clutch.

Makeup Touch Ups:

  • Blotting papers to battle shiny skin in your photos

  • Makeup remover pads if you get misty-eyed

  • The lipstick color you've chosen and/or lip gloss to keep you looking polished

  • Q-tips for smudges

  • Eye drops to quell redness

  • Facial tissues to wipe away what needs to be wiped away

  • Powder foundation to apply over any makeup that's whipped away

  • Blush to add color to your cheeks should it fade throughout the day

Fabulous Hair:

  • Hair spray for quick pickups (and clingy dresses)

  • Extra hairpins for updos (but ensure the style passes a jump test, too)

  • Compact mirror for periodic dance floor checkups

  • Travel comb and brush

Dressed to Impress:

  • Clear nail polish (if you're wearing stockings) to fix runs

  • An emery board, to prevent snags in case you get a jagged nail

  • White chalk to cover any stains or scuffs

  • Dry shampoo to keep sweat at bay under the arms and down the bride's back

  • Feminine hygiene items

  • Band-Aids for blisters and cuts

  • Krazy Glue for heel fixes and veil tears

  • Double-sided tape and safety pins to hold whatever needs to be held together together

Kissing Close-Ups:

  • A travel toothbrush and toothpaste

  • Floss and mints

  • A sample size of your favorite fragrance

  • Deodorant 

  • Antacid, aspirin, and Pepto-Bismol to banish prewedding nerves and aches

Most important...a positive attitude!  Remember to not sweat the small stuff, slow down, breath, and enjoy the sacred union you're about to enter with your best friend!  It's truly a magical day.
