Wedding Season with Tempo Tonight
With my sister’s wedding on the horizon, there have been lots of wedding-related posts the past few months. These have also been some of the most popular ones to date as I assume bridesmaid and bachelorette duties are something we can all relate to at some point or another.
Well, today I am happy to share something that will help with another aspect of your life – also related to weddings – hangovers (or as I like to call them “Irish Flus”) or lack there of thanks to my new can’t-leave-home-without item – Tempo Tonight!
If you remember, I first introduced you to Tempo Tonight in my “Welcome Bag + Hangover Kits” post from my sister’s bachelorette weekend. I traveled with a few boxes to Charleston and all of the girls tried them out on just the perfect weekend.
For those of you not familiar with Tempo, it’s an all natural hangover and detox supplement that is taken both before AND after drinking. This is unlike most so-called “hangover pills” that you only take after the fact. Tempo ensures the absorption of nutrients and eliminates toxins before they hit your system. It works proactively while you’re drinking instead of just the next day.
Their new packets come with 4 pills – 2 to take prior to drinking and 2 when you head home or after “last call” (cheat sheet below).
They now come in price-break packages for all your wedding needs too (see below and shop here)!
- Bachelorette Package – 2 Boxes
- Good for 12 people for two nights
- $85 ($90 value)
- Rehearsal Dinner Package – 3 Boxes
- Good for 36 people
- $120 ($135 value)
- Wedding Reception package – 9 Boxes
- Good for 100 people
- $360 ($405 value)
These have easily become a part of my weekend routines or even when I know I’m going to have a few drinks after work. Since college, I often complain that I get a headache and feel sick even just after a few glasses of wine. Well, Tempo has helped tremendously with that and I wake up sans a hangover and can more easily start my day compared to before. I’ve also let friends, both male and female, friends try it and they’ve also seen positive results. Now, that certainly doesn’t mean you have an excuse for excessive binge drinking but if you’re like me and you get an Irish Flu every now and then, you must try these yourself!
Today, I wanted to also share the new packages that Tempo has launched for weddings! As you might know, wedding weekends are often long and full of events after events. Between luncheons, showers, rehearsal dinners, welcome parties and then the actual day of and reception – you consume many mimosas, cocktails and then some!
One of the most important days for us girls not to feel hungover is the morning of the actual wedding. Whether you’re the bride, bridesmaid (or even a guest or groom!), waking up early, starting hair and make up and being “on” all day can be quite tolling even on a non-hungover Harriet or Hank. This is where Tempo would make perfect little gifts to include to your bridesmaids so they can feel bright-eyed and bushy-tailed come an 8AM call time even after a too-much-fun rehearsal dinner the night before. (You could also include and give these out to wedding guests.)
I know I will certainly be using a few packets for my sister’s big weekend soon.
Happy Wedding Season and Happy No More Hangovers! Cheers!

DIY: Will You Be My Bridesmaid?
If you’re a bride-to-be, you’ll appreciate today’s guest post from my sister, MEC. You might be thinking about how to ask your BFFs to be your bridesmaids and/or maid of honor to be in your wedding.
Well, I was completely in love with what my sister did while I was home for her engagement party. I just had to have her share it with you!
I surprised her on dressing shopping day with an early morning “bride to be” latte & bubbly along the way. AND she completely surprised ME with her creative way of asking me to “officially” be her MOH!
The steps for this adorable idea and accordion-like collage are below by MEC!
1. Make your signs. Be creative.
(I made “BE” “MY” “BRIDES” “MAID” “?” & “BE” “MY” “MAID” “OF” “HONOR” for BAC)
2. Take your PHOTOS! Have fun with it too!
3. Fold construction paper in half, cut down the fold and fold the cut pieces in half again. This is what you use for the booklet so create as many as you need.
4. Tape one side to the back of another and alternate. This creates a zig zag shape that’s like an accordion so it will open up!
5. Tape your photos on to the sides you want to show and voila!
It’s safe to say I’m the most honored person in the world to stand by this girl’s side on her big day next year!
MEC also had adorable gift baskets made for us all full of presents and these Kate Spade “love” rings with sweet notes inside.
