Wouldn't it be fun to be a real Fairy Godmother? While the bride has her bridesmaids to assist her, the mother-of-the-bride is often alone with her lists of things to do and final details to be managed. Be there from the very first steps for planning a wedding!

Welcome, Fairy Godmother! A Fairy Godmother is hired to be the # 1 assistant to the mother of the bride. She handles emergencies, follows up on details, and in general, does anything she is asked. Sprinkle some magic in your city with this fun job. Write your own job description!

Add a magic wand ! Always carry a beautiful magic wand with you on appointments. You want people to remember that you are the very magical Fairy Godmother who can solve all emergencies on wedding day!

The Fairy Godmother Emergency Box 

Every Fairy Godmother needs a well-supplied emergency box. This box should include scissors, needle and thread, safety pins, scotch tape, stapler, pens, paper, telephone list of all wedding suppliers and attendants, mouthwash, crackers, water, and anything else you think might be needed. Add a stash of over-the-counter meds -- pain reliever, acid suppresant, other tummy meds. Better to have these available than not! A big picnic basket works well for this! In fact, a fishing tackle box works quite well.
