Troubles to Avoid! Wedding Trouble #1: Lost Contact Lens...!

For people with poor eyesight, contact lenses are incredibly convenient and efficient. Bride A usually wears contacts and, having never torn or lost them before, didn't bring any spare pair on her wedding day.

Unfortunately, A lost her contact lens when she was moved to tears by a video created by her friends during the wedding's performance! The moment she dropped it, she reported to the groom and the attendant, saying, "I've lost a contact lens," but it was dark in the venue, so they couldn’t find it immediately. After the performance ended, the attendant eventually found it, but it had already dried out and was unusable.

Even for those who wear contacts regularly, you never know what might happen on your wedding day. If you only have one contact lens, you can’t see anything and won’t enjoy the day...! If you wear contacts, make sure to prepare a spare pair!◎

Troubles to Avoid! Wedding Trouble #2: Hairstyle and Makeup Look Completely Different...!

Bride B, who didn't have any particular attachment to her hairstyle or makeup, skipped the hair and makeup rehearsal. She had shown the planner several photos beforehand, requesting, "Please do my makeup like this and my hair like that."

On the wedding day, the hairstylist who arrived was a woman in her late 40s to early 50s. Although she worked hard looking at the photos, it turned out that the trendy hairstyles were challenging, and the result didn't match what B had envisioned...!

Many brides skip hair and makeup rehearsals due to budgetary constraints, but even if a rehearsal can't be done, it might help to discuss it with the stylist beforehand. Try to consult with them! A rehearsal will definitely give you peace of mind.♡
