Kiss-Proof Lips for Brides

To make your lips kiss-proof use a long wearing lip formula that wont budge and keep your lips moisturised with a clear lip balm since longwear formulas can be drying.

Makeup & Dress Trick

To keep your wedding makeup and hair in place and to protect your bridal gown, gently place a towel or any piece of fabric over your head. Carefully slide your wedding dress over your body and head and remove the towel, again, carefully.

Destination Wedding Legalities

When preparing for your wedding abroad ensure you check the necessary legal requirements with your wedding planner or relevant consulate to ensure you don't have any last minute surpises when you arrive at your destination. The worst that can happen is the wedding will be cancelled, so get prepared!

No Shiny Brides!

If you're worried about a shiny face on your wedding day, invest in some quality make-up products that will help keep the shine at bay, but equally important is to carry some blotting tissues with you.

Wedding Fruit Cakes

If you want a small piece of fruit cake for a select few guests, it's cheaper to add it to your cake order as a small cutting cake. Most wedding cake makers will only use fruit cake as a base tier, not upper layers due to weight, and this often leads to large amounts of unwanted fruit cake.
