Most brides experience some degree of stress before the big day — there’s last minute dress fittings, honeymoon packing, talking your Italian Mother out of draping tulle over everything sitting still. (Or maybe that was just me.) Before my December 29th wedding, my fiancé was living 3000 miles away on the left coast while I was in NYC, single-handedly packing the contents of our apartment into FedEx boxes, bidding my besties farewell, interviewing for new jobs in LA, and all the while staying with my future in-laws. (Who, by the way, were very gracious to let me – and all my stuff – live with them for two months.)

By the time I finally made the move and came back to Philadelphia for the big event, I was too busy with last minute details to see straight. Which left no time for extraneous tasks, the not-necessaries but the nice-to-haves, which included picking out a signature wedding day scent. I had heard in various wedding mags about the notion – something sparkling and heavenly, something you’ve never before worn, something that –- because of the olfactory-memory connection — you’d always recall your wedding day when you caught a whiff.

My big day was, nonetheless, blissfully happy and amazingly exhausting. But if you’re getting married and have some spare time, I’d highly suggest taking some me-time to walk through your local department store’s beauty counter and find a fabulous fragrance to sport on your special day. Below, some popular wedding day scents:

Vera Wang Sheer Veil

Happy Heart by Clinique

Philosophy Amazing Grace

Ralph Lauren Romance

Daisy by Marc Jacobs
