A good friend of mine TOTALLY vouches for the Shout wipes. She was married in Oct (3 yrs ago) at Villa Lombardi, the ceremony and pics were outside. She got some dirt/mud of the bottom of her dress. After the ceremony and before going into the cocktail hr, she stood on a chair and all her bridesmaids used shout wipes and got ALL the dirt out! GO SHOUT WIPES!!

I absolutely agree! If you remember one thing off that list, make it the Shout wipes. They are amazing.

Re: I found this very useful when I got married. I hope you do too!

I didn't bring everything on the list...just the items I thought I'd use. To be honest, after making DH run around like a madman for chalk the day before our wedding...I wound up not using anything from the list. I guess it was peace of mind.

Thanks for the list! Very helpful!

No need for me to have FH run around looking for chalk---teacher here!

But I will add one more thing to that list--another shirt for FH. He is always spilling something!
