Tips for your Maid of Honor

Being a Maid/Matron of Honor is such a special role in the wedding of a friend or family member.  We know you want to help the bride through her special day and here are some special items to have on hand.

Many MOH's put together a bag of tricks for the wedding day.  There are some obvious items to include (hair spray, safety pins, bobby pins), but here are some items that will make you a lifesaver.
*Double stick tape:  to stick what needs to be stuck
*Crochet Hook:  to work on those tiny buttons
*Little First Aid Kit:  band-aids are always hard to find when you need one
*Scissors:  try finding a pair in a hotel room
*Straws:  to sip champagne without messing up her lipstick
*Diaper Pins:  the best way to fix a broken bustle

And last, but not least, your brightest smile, an armload of patience, and buckets of good cheer.

I love the bags you chose for the e-kit posts. So much nicer than some of the utilitarian choices, and they make great gifts too. Your collective style shows in all of your posts...congrats.
