Bridesmaid Energy 101: 5 Tips to Stay Fresh, Focused & Fabulous All Day
Let’s be honest — being a bridesmaid is basically a part-time job (with fabulous outfits and group chats). Between early fittings, planning meetings, dress try-ons, and maybe one-too-many cheeky proseccos, it’s easy to feel a little… wilted by the afternoon. But whether you’re styling a bridal party or hopping from boutique to brunch, staying energised keeps the day feeling fun — not frantic.
Here are Luna’s top 5 tips to keep that pep in your step (and champagne in hand):
1. Hydration is haute couture.
We love a sparkling rosé, but when it comes to energy, water is your bestie — still or sparkling, just keep sipping. Coconut water is fab for electrolytes, and adding a slice of lemon or cucumber keeps it feeling fancy.
2. Fuel like a fashion girl.
Skip the sugar crash by choosing snacks with protein, fibre, and healthy fats. Think: almonds, energy balls, apple slices with peanut butter, or a fancy protein bar. Bridesmaid-proof your purse with snack stash essentials.
3. Movement = magic.
Not calling for a bootcamp, but even 10 minutes of walking between dress appointments or some light stretching can boost energy and focus. Bonus points if you turn on our ‘Ready to Slay’ Spotify playlist.
4. Power naps (without the nap).
If time’s tight, a five-minute meditation or deep-breathing moment can refresh your brain and give you that just-woke-up glow — no shut-eye required. Pop your sunnies on, find a park bench, and channel your inner zen queen.
5. Laugh it off.
Nothing restores energy like a crack-up with your girls. Keep the mood light, joke about hideous dress rejects, and celebrate that one frock you all finally agreed on (hallelujah!).
Planned chaos is part of the fun — you’re creating memories, after all. And with these energy-saving habits, you’ll glide from first fitting to final toast in absolute style.
Style so good, the aisle might as well be a runway. VIP vibes only.
