5 items to keep a teary bride beautiful

As the maid of honor, you have a wealth of responsibilities to take care of on your best friend’s big day, and one of the most important is ensuring that she is looking her best no matter what weather, emotion or mishap arises over the course of the day! Her wedding will be one of the most unforgettable days of her life, but if she’s the kind of lady who is easily emotional or can cry at the drop of a hat, a few happy tears are sure to show up. The intense emotion of a wedding can cause those tears to flow, and that can certainly wreak havoc on the bride’s makeup and may even put a damper on her wedding photos.

 

You may have already begun putting together a wedding survival kit to handle any wardrobe malfunctions and mishaps, but if your friend is a big crier, you should pack a few important items to help her hold it together during the day’s activities!

 

  1. Eye drops

An unfortunate side effect of crying are the watery, bloodshot eyes that you certainly don’t want showing up in the bride’s photos. Before the big day, seek out a bottle of redness reducing eye drops that can clear up any eye issues before each portion of your ceremony. Pick up a few extra as well – your fellow bridesmaids are sure to tear up a few times during the day, so you can provide a ready solution when those happy tears come!

 

  1. Fans/Parasols

After an entire morning getting ready with an extensive hair and makeup regimen, all it takes is one smudge at her face and the bride’s makeup could be ruined. Luckily, if you pack a small fan or parasol, this can quickly help to stop and dry any tears that may appear during your nuptials without having to touch your face. As an added bonus, this is also a great way to incorporate a certain design or color in whatever fan you choose, as this can perfectly match the overall theme and look of the ceremony.

 

  1. Tissues/Blotting Papers

Tissues may seem like a no-brainer, but when it comes to preserving the bride’s makeup and overall look, you should bring along both tissues and blotting papers to keep her looking great! Tissues can handle the sniffles that may come when the bride begins to cry, while blotting paper is the best option to quickly dab up any tears that are present without removing excess makeup as well.

 

  1. Anti-moisture eye makeup

Using any form of moisture-resistant eye shadow or eye liner is a must have no matter what style the bride is going for, and pairing this cosmetic with a waterproof mascara will keep the entire looking brilliant even when those happy tears arrive. Brides may also can also make things easier on themselves with faux lashes, which come in numerous styles and can keep her worry-free throughout the day. Before the wedding day arrives, make sure you have the right mascara and eyeshadow shades so you can perform quick touch-ups throughout the day.

 

  1. Cry kit tote bag

Whether you’re at the ceremony or the reception, make sure your supplies are close by! You never know when a touching speech or first dance will bring on the waterworks, so throw everything into a small tote to keep it at the ready whenever those tears of joy start to come.
