Quick Solutions for the Most Common Wedding-Day Mishaps

With a bit of advance preparation and some savvy on-the-spot solutions, you'll be prepared for any mishap that comes your way.

The Oops: You have a hangover from last night's rehearsal dinner.

The Fix: Drink up — water, that is. Alcohol causes dehydration, so you need to replenish your body's liquids. (You may even be able to ward off that nasty morning-after feeling by downing plenty of H20 before you go to bed after a night of imbibing, says Dr. Racaniello.) Then, eat to beat that sluggish feeling — something bland, such as oatmeal cooked in water or a banana, that won't trigger a bout of vomiting or diarrhea. Pop ibuprofen (with food) to ease a headache and an antacid like Tums if you have a queasy stomach, says Dr. Racaniello.
