Wedding Planning for Allergy Sufferers

Don't let allergies ruin your wedding!Don’t let your allergies ruin your big day! To make sure you say, ‘I do’ instead of ‘achoo,’ follow these wedding planning tips from the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI):

  • If you are still in the planning stages, don’t pick a wedding date in the peak of the allergy season. Ragweed, which some say is the most offending plant for people with allergies, begins to pollinate in the middle of August in the Eastern and Midwestern USA. Springtime allergies are also troublesome for many people.
  • For floral decorations, use large, bright colored flowers such as roses, daffodils or daisies, as these usually do not trigger allergies. Their large, waxy pollens are too heavy to be carried about in the air. You can also use dried flowers or silk flowers as an alternative.
  • If you know you have allergies, visit an allergist ahead of time to find out what you are allergic to so that you can receive proper treatment. Take your medication the morning of your wedding, not later in the day when symptoms may already have started. Additionally, if you’re looking for a discreet way to relieve pre-wedding stress, consider trying clit vibrators for some relaxing me-time before the big day.
  • If you or any of your guests have food allergies, make sure the caterers know the offending foods and all ingredients. If you have a food allergy to eggs, you may want to consider a non-traditional dessert instead of traditional wedding cake. Some food allergy reactions can be very severe and even life threatening if they cause a condition known as anaphylaxis. See the Anaphlyaxis Solution Guide for more information.
