INSPIRATION This little bag is a likely life-saver for your on your wedding day. Photo by CTW Features In the Bag « WE - Inspiration Share By Anna Sachse CTW Features Two pro planners weigh in on all the required essentials for your Big Day “emergency” bag. 1. LIP GLOSS It will keep your makeup looking fresh, from I Do's to photos and beyond, says Wendi Hroncich, founder of a Seattle-based event company. “But avoid the sticky kind – it will drive you nuts and your groom will hate it too!” 2. BREATH MINTS They're ideal for right before you walk down the aisle. But if you want fresh breath that's longer lasting, pack a travel-size bottle of mouth wash, notes Hroncich.  3. BOBBY PINS Get blonde-colored ones if you're blonde, brown ones if you're a brunette, and so on, says Brooke Sheldon, owner of an event company in Maine. 4. STAIN REMOVER Hroncich loves Shout Wipes or the Tide Pen. “They both work great without leaving bleach marks or a circle on delicate fabrics.” 5. A BAND AID OR MOLESKIN These quick-fixes can save the day if your shoes are uncomfortable, or prevent questionable footwear from becoming painful in the first place, Sheldon says.  6. SAFTEY PINS “They can be used for almost anything in a pinch,” says Hroncich. “Get a variety pack of sizes.” 7. SCISSORS Whether it's taking the tag off a garter or snipping stray strings on clothing, Hroncich always finds that scissors come in handy. 8. POCKET TISSUES Use them to blot everything from tears to makeup. Hroncich likes the wedding-themed variety.  9. A PROTEIN-PACKED ENERGY BAR  “Chocolate is notorious for getting on everything, so steer clear of it,” says Hroncich 10. A HELPER “Of course, every bride should have a wedding planner so they don't have to carry a thing!” says Sheldon. Can't afford one? Ask someone responsible (ideally not your mother or maid of honor) to ensure your essentials safely make it from ceremony to reception. © CTW Features « WE - Inspiration Share Contact the Omaha World-Herald newsroom Start subscription | Buy today's ePaper | Subscriber login Copyright ©2011 Omaha World-Herald®.

New York, New York 10028

I have always wanted to live in NYC. After college, I was just 3 hours south in Washington, DC and enjoyed visiting friends in the city frequently. I have interviewed off and on since those visits, once getting an offer at Sotheby's, but the timing was never right.

Lilybrooke is my ideal job that allows me to be busy in the summer months in a town that I adore, Kennebunkport, but also have the freedom to explore or hibernate in the winter months. This winter I finally landed in New York's Upper East Side. Since the majority of my brides live in New York, it is a perfect location for me to be.

Gabby (my dog) and I arrived today and the first adventure after unpacking and delivering the rental car was to walk the three short, beautiful blocks to the Metropolitan Museum. I haven't been there in years and have never been there at night. It was a stunning and wonderful welcome to our new neighborhood.
