Filled with 25 essentials, this $25 kit will inevitably be your best bridesmaid on your special day. We all know it can get pretty stressful and sometimes the littlest mishap can turn into a catastrophe. That’s why you should get your hands on the Bridessentials Survival Kit from Ms. & Mrs. so that you will be prepared for just about anything. Whether you need extra wedding bands, static remover, double-sided tape or just a couple bobby pins - this kit is a must-have.

I found this easy-to-do face chart on Stila’s site and thought it would be a great choice for a bride on her wedding day. Without the foundation, this look is light, yet warm due to the cherry crush on the lips & cheeks and golden tones on the eyelids.

When anyone mentions Vera Wang, the first thing that comes to mind are her stunning wedding gowns . But as we know, she also has a line of fragrances that are equally suiting for any woman. And now, brides-to-be have a fragrance to consider, as Vera Wang’s new “Bouquet” fragrance is both fresh and feminine, perfect for all you modern brides!

Says Vera “For me, flowers and fragrance are the perfect expression of love and commitment, and a bouquet symbolises that union. In the hands of a radiant woman, a bouquet can be magical.”

The scent opens with dew drops, accented with a delicate blend of radiant Sicilian bergamot and black currant leaves. The luminous heart blooms with notes of paperwhite narcissus and honeysuckle for a feminine floral sensation. The base of the bouquet is a warm embrace of lavender, Moroccan cedar and white iris root.

Here’s an interesting article about how women take extreme measures to prepare for their wedding.

‘Things I did in preparation for my wedding included running, starving myself, having Eve Lom facials, a fake tan, my hair cut and dyed - I still have no idea why I dyed it - a manicure, a pedicure and my hair done,” says Charlotte MacInnes, recalling her wedding three years ago. All of which might sound ridiculously excessive, but when it comes to your average wedding preparation is actually pretty modest.

A survey last year coined the phrase “Competitive Wedding Syndrome” after 60% of respondents said they wanted guests to think their wedding was “the best they had ever been to”.

How far will you go?
