What ’s In the Bride’s Bag
10 items the bride should have with her
on her wedding day
By Anna Sachse, CTW Features
1. LIP GLOSS
It will keep your makeup looking fresh from
I Do’s to photos and beyond. But avoid the
sticky kind – it will drive you nuts and your
groom will hate it too!
2. BREATH MINTS
They’re ideal for right before you walk
down the aisle. But if you want fresh breath
that’s longer lasting, pack a travel-size bottle
of mouth wash.
3. BOBBY PINS
Get blonde-colored ones if you’re blonde,
brown ones if you’re a brunette, and so on.
4. STAIN REMOVER
Shout Wipes or the Tide Pen both work
great without leaving bleach marks or a cir-
cle on delicate fabrics.
5. A BAND-AID OR
MOLESKIN
These quick-fixes can save the day if your
shoes are uncomfortable, or prevent ques-
tionable footwear from becoming uncom-
fortable in the first place.
6. SAFETY PINS
They can be used for almost anything in a
pinch. Get a variety pack of sizes.
7. SCISSORS
Whether it’s taking the tag off a garter or
snipping stray strings on clothing, scissors
come in handy.
8. POCKET TISSUES
Use them to blot everything from tears to
makeup. Try the wedding-themed variety.
9. A PROTEIN-PACKED
ENERGY BAR
Chocolate is notorious for getting on ev-
erything, so opt for a Yogurt Honey Peanut
Balance Bar or Lemon CLIF Builder’s bar.
10. A HELPER
Of course, every bride should have a wed-
ding planner so they don’t have to carry a
thing! Can’t afford one? Ask someone re-
sponsible (ideally not your mother or maid
of honor) to ensure your essentials safely
make it from ceremony to reception.
