Bridal Emergency Kit

I know I don't normally do posts like this, but I was in a wedding this weekend and it has gotten me in a wedding planning kind of mood ;) When I get married someday I would love to have somebody do this for me, and if I am ever a maid of honor I would definitely want to do this for someone!
I will put in a printable version at the end!

Some of this stuff might seem kind of pointless, but it is better to have it that not to! Also, if it is possible to get mini, travel, or sample sizes of any of this then go for it! I leaves more room for everything else!

Sunburn Relief

Even when you wear sunscreen, sometimes the inevitable happens and you get the dreaded sunburn... So what should you do? I have a few suggestions of the best way to be as comfortable as possible while you recover! 1.) Pain Reliever First things first, as soon as you discover your sunburn head to the medicine cabinet and take an over-the-counter pain reliever such as Ibuprofen or Advil. These are anti-inflammatory medications which will help to reduce swelling and pressure from the sunburn, which will relive  some of the pain. 2.)

Try to drink just water, since it is better for you and more hydrating than juice or sodas. 3.) Take a Bath Try to limit yourself to no more that 30 minutes, but that thirty minutes can do wonders for your...
