Tender Loving Wedding Style Top Scottish style blogger Rachel Lawler of Tender Loving Style shares all on her recent Maid of Honour duties ‘Love is patient’ – and just as well with Covid halting so many wedding plans since 2020! I was so delighted for my little sis, Beth, and her new husband, Greig, who finally got their big day after a two-year postponement. I was honoured to be their Maid of Honour, so I thought I’d share 5 things I’d recommend to anyone on MOH duty…
1. Pack a ‘Just in case’ kit
Maybe it was the former stylist in me sneaking out, but I knew I wanted to put together a ‘just in case’ kit for the big day for any last minute emergencies. I popped in a mini sewing kit (don’t forget safety pins which can totally help pull up a stubborn zip), blister plasters, deodorant, mints, mini scissors, travel size perfume and a box of kirby grips. Luckily no sewing kit was needed, but it felt less stressful knowing we had all bases covered!

2. Stick to PJs and robes everyone can wear again
Let’s be totally honest: a set of PJs stamped with ‘bridesmaid’ isn’t going to be your go-to pair post-wedding. Instead, Beth bought us all pink striped silky robes and – by sheer coincidence – the bridesmaids had already decided on the exact matching PJs! We also picked up pink crop tops for the morning so it was easier to get changed after hair and make-up.
