Whether you are a bride, groom, bridesmaid or groomsman, traveling hundreds of miles to a tropical wedding or just around the corner, having a well thought out packing list is a great way to make sure your big day goes smoothly. Knot the Groom has a wonderful array of high quality cases, totes and kits for organizing your wedding day necessities. I was especially excited to see this week’s deal on the Train Travel Case. This particular cosmetic case has the easy clean plastic lining that makes life on the go much easier; the plastic lining is especially important if you pack your cosmetic bag anywhere near your clothes.More details on this week’s deal are below.  My other favorite item for the bride or bridesmaids is the Bridesmaid’s Clutch Survival Kit. You can take this little beauty anywhere and be ready for anything with its 2 band aids, 4 bobby pins, towlette, sewing kit, breath mint and travel size Kleenex pack. For more great travel products and gift ideas for your wedding party, check out my product board.

Unless you’ve opted-in to play bridesmaid for a future queen, don’t feel obligated to wait on your bride hand and foot. Of course, you want to do everything you can to make her day perfect. What friend wouldn’t? But at the same time, you have to save your own sanity.

A recent Your Tango article shares bridesmaid advice from the stars of the new movie, Bridesmaids.

The best advice, in my opinion, came from Wendi McClendon-Covey who plays bridesmaid Rita. McClendon-Covey says, “Before you say yes, state your boundaries and say this is what I’m willing to do and willing to spend.” Read more »
