Wedding Day Tips

I just met with a few friends that are newlyweds. They shared 3 great tips with me for your wedding day that I wanted to share.

1 - Eat a balanced breakfast. Eggs, toast ... Don't eat sugary donuts or muffins she said b/c it will give you a headache within a few hours. The idea is to have energy for the long day ahead.

2 - Drink gatorade instead of water during the night.

3 - When you get your dress fitted have them fit it so that the heavy dress leans in your hips. This is so that you aren't pulling up your dress the whole night by your boobs.

I was hoping that other newlyweds could share their wedding day tips or anyone that has newlywed friends.

my cousin's make up lady always tells her brides to take benadryl the day before the wedding - dont take it too late in the day or you will never wake up but at some point in the day

my cousin didnt listen to this advice was rushed to the ER the night before the wedding and was there until 8am with hives all over her body - they had to give her two shots of benadryl at the hospital and she was puffy all morning!!

thank god by the time the photg came she was stunning but i will be following this bc i have gotten hives in the past and never figured out why!!!

although, not good advice for me, because I'm allergic to Benadryl! (believe it or not!)

What was your cousin so allergic to?

yeah please dont take it then!!!!

she still doesnt know - when she got back from her HM she went to allergists and all types of doctors. . . no one could figure it out and it never happened again! i guess it was stress related!!

3 - When you get your dress fitted have them fit it so that the heavy dress leans in your hips. This is so that you aren't pulling up your dress the whole night by your boobs.

What I mean by this is have them fit the dress very well on your hips otherwise you will be pulling up ur dress at the breast area the whole night.

ahhhhhh! Is THAT why some brides have to keep tugging up top??? GREAT tip! Thank you!!!

Lets see...

I think the #1 piece of advice I can give is RELAX and HAVE FUN!! Its your wedding day! Things are going to go wrong, but don't sweat it!

Also do be sure to eat something in the morning! I had a bagel and that was fine.
