    I love that model in a bottle idea.  Where can you get that from Cincy?

    Let's see....what are my tips...Don't get drunk the night before your wedding, do hair trials with your hairstylist before the wedding.  Try out different humidity proof hairstyles, and keep a lil' makeup bag handy with extra lipstick, and make sure it's somewhere that can be easily located.  I could not find my makeup bag when I needed it, so I fear that my lips looked all crusty and chapped.

    Great point about the make up bag Tam - I didn't want to have a purse for my wedding day, but I may carry a small clutch to hold the blotting papers and lip gloss. 

    You can buy Model in a Bottle on amazon.com and I think you may be able to get it in Sephora stores as well...

    IA with using blotting papers to combat shine. You can also use milk of magnesia for that.

    Yup! you can apply it with a cotton pad at night before you go to sleep or even in the morning after you wash your face. It works for me =]
