Preventing Guest Hangovers! Have You Heard About the Must-Have Gift: The Hangover Kit?
2016.03.25 published
I want to have a great time with the guests at my wedding ♡
A wedding with many guests ♡ Among them are childhood best friends and classmates from school who used to hang out almost every day but now only meet a few times a year as adults. Many of these friends are expected to attend too.*
Taking care of guests’ hangovers too ♡ Do you know about the 【Hangover Kit】?
At weddings, it’s not uncommon to drink all night after the reception, into after-parties and beyond... "Let's celebrate ○○'s wedding and drink to our heart's content!" For friends who get into the celebratory mood, I want to prepare a 【Hangover Kit】. Hangover means "二日酔い" (futsukayoi) in English*
Therefore, a "Hangover Kit" is a collection of hangover prevention supplies for guests who came despite having work or plans the next day, so they can be "energetic and active the next day"♡
What should I put in the 【Hangover Kit】?
Representative items for the Hangover Kit include headache medicine, energy drinks, and gum ♡ It's also a good idea to prepare classic items like "Ukon no Chikara" (turmeric power) as well!

A classic way to present a hangover kit is to put headache medicine and energy drinks in a drawstring bag marked with a hospital symbol ♡ Buying a cloth drawstring bag and DIY-ing it with your initials stamp could also be a nice touch ♡

Before the reception begins, prepare one bottle of water for each guest and attach the hangover prevention medicine to a drawstring bag along with it. This idea is super thoughtful for those who are thinking, "We’re about to have the reception, I'll drink a lot!!" ♡ Since you need water to take medicine, it's very convenient to have the water and medicine together in a bottle ♩

In other countries, it's also common to put the hangover kit in a tin ♡ It looks cute like a first aid kit ♩ It’s great to have essentials like eye drops for red eyes accessible whenever needed ♡ While giving each person one is nice, leaving one set of amenities at the venue is also good idea.

Instead of thank-you tags, how about hangover kit tags? This idea wraps the medicine in a drawstring bag ♡ It might also be nice to include a message for guests ♩
Relieve your guests' hangovers the day after the wedding with the 【Hangover Kit】!
A wedding is a rare opportunity to gather friends from far away who you usually can't meet and have a lot to talk about ♩ It's not uncommon for the night to go on until dawn, so preparing the 【Hangover Kit】 for all guests as a precaution against hangovers will surely be appreciated ♡
