Time Savers For Busy Brides—Free Tips, Solutions and Ideas To Make Your Wedding Planning Less Stressful

August Wedding Tips (HOT!)

This month's featured tips:
Be Prepared for Emergencies!

It's almost inevitable that some small thing (or two... or ten!) will go wrong on your big day. Take the following excellent advice from Joann Pappas of Diamond Video, and you'll be prepared for almost anything!

Joann's Emergency Kit contents:

Safety Pins Bobby Pins Scissors
Tylenol Pepto-Bismol tabs Visine
Mints Kaopectate  

Plus ... buy a small steamer (from Wal-Mart, KMart, etc) -- it will save you hours of struggle to get wrinkles out of your gown and your bridesmaids' dress with an iron (which just doesn't work!).

Consider asking a family member (or maybe your mom?) to bring along a small ice chest with bottled water and simple snacks like crackers and cheese. When no one eats in the morning because of nerves, there can be a lot of hungry, even faint, people before the ceremony even starts. A few crackers and some water are great for a touch of queasiness, too!

If your summer wedding's in a hot place, consider a personal fan for you (or maybe one for everyone in the bridal party). They only cost about $10 and they can make wearing a heavy gown much more bearable!

- Thanks to Joann Pappas of Diamond Video Productions in Sacramento, CA for these great tips!
