A to do list must be one of the easiest ways to make sure you remember everything and let's be honest, bride brain is a real thing ;-)

We have compiled a list of things that you should remember to do before your wedding. So let's start:

1. Make a Mani and Pedi appointment for the day before your wedding
2. Make sure your wedding dress, shoes, perfume, jewelry, garter and hair accessories are neatly packed together
3. It may be a good idea to break in your shoes
4. An emergency kit for on the day will safe you from all kinds of head aches, pack the following in a bag and also put it with your dress:

-Head ache pills
-Chalk (great to hide marks in case you spill something on your dress)
-A needle, white thread, safety pins and perhaps extra buttons
-Plasters
-Hand sanitizer
-Mouth wash/tic tacs/chappies
-Extra earring butterflies
-Nail file
-Hair spray
-Lip stick
-Extra pair of shoes in case a heel gives in

5. Confirm with your hair dresser,make-up artist and photographer that they know where the venue is and what time they need to be there
6. Ask family members and friends to help with small details, e.g. putting wedding favours on the tables, make sure the place cards are correctly placed, flower arrangements and the ring barer has the rings are etc.
7. Have something warm in case the evening gets chili
8. Pack for your honeymoon
9. Get a good night's rest the night before

We hope this list will help, please let us know how it went and if you can think of anything else we should put on the list to help future brides.

Happy wedding day,
