It's what inside that counts. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Bridal suite prep is key to looking flawless on the big day. Here are a few pro tips to get your girls aisle ready! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​1. Take things out of the suitcase and garment bags right away and hang high enough so nothing is dragging.

2. Cut all tags and seam rip hanger loops so they aren't visible

3. Use distilled water and steam garments until they are totally wrinkle free

4. Apply deodorant and oils/lotions carefully and after getting dressed

5. If dresses or clothing will wrinkle easily, make sure you keep a wrinkle release spray close by if you have to sit before pictures or walking down the aisle

6. Check your teeth! Use a compact mirror for a last minute seal of approval for your smile.

Don't forget to allow for plenty of time for all prep and designate someone to make sure it all gets done! Happy prepping!

"I didn't even know that existed!" ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A quote we hear all the time when someone opens our kit and discovers a styling tool they never knew they needed. The deodorant removing sponge is definitely one of those aha products. You're welcome.

Stain removing wipes are always a good idea, but it's not just us who thinks so...​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​"My daughter got a greasy stain on her homecoming dress (all white dress with a lace/sequin overlay). The stain was of unknown/multiple sourced origins as she had just gotten home from work (as a cart attendance at a local golf course), her dress had arrived, and in her excitement she took it out of the packaging to try it on - she had washed her hands but not well enough, because as soon as she tried on the dress, you could see the faint, but noticeable, handprint right in the front of her dress. Well, the Rescue Kit worked magic - within five minutes of gently wiping on the stain, the dress was as good as new, even on the lace and sequins. Thank you, Rescue Kit, for saving the day."

Designed to stick and stay with confidence, it always gets the job done.

Risa’s “emergency kits” are equipped with stylist-approved tools and products designed to mitigate wardrobe disasters for every occasion, such as weddings, photoshoots or even red carpet events.
