How to Pamper Yourself Before the Big Day!

You’ve said yes and popped the bubbly, but what comes next?! Trust us, a whole lot: the joy of having all (or most of) the people you love in one room, lots of laughs, tons of memories, happy tears, and some stressful moments too.

Sure, your wedding is one day, but it’s one of the biggest days of your life, and there is a ton of planning that goes into your adventure down the aisle. Going through all of those checklists can be overwhelming, and the last thing you want is to feel run down on your big day.

Before you get knee-deep into wedding planning, take time to pamper yourself and start this journey off right. Getting engaged is a major milestone, and this time in your life calls for a celebration every step of the way. So rather than treating yourself once, how about a gift that keeps giving?

There’s something magical about a surprise gift that shows up on your doorstep every month. Plus, it’ll get some regular self-care automatically scheduled into your calendar. The Ring Boxes are just the treat you need to alleviate any wedding planning stress you are feeling and help you plan, prepare, and be pampered before saying “I Do!”

The Perfect Way to Pamper Yourself

Our husband-and-wife team plan, design, and curate every item that goes into The Ring Boxes, we aim to provide every bride with high-quality products and excellent service at a reasonable cost. We also look to support other small and women-owned businesses whenever possible and value our customers’ feedback to keep improving our boxes for future brides to be.

Each month, we deliver a newly themed Ring Box tailored to where you are in your wedding planning process. From the second you say “Yes” to the magical moment you say “I Do,” and even as you drive off into the sunset for your honeymoon. As a small family-owned business, we handpick every item in each box, so it’s perfectly curated to deliver what you need when you need it most. We fill each Ring Box with 5-7 full-size products, bringing together a fantastic selection.

Treat Yourself with our Themed Boxes

They’re packed with goodies that are a good mix of practical and fun, specially timed for each of these unique wedding moments, and all aimed at helping you celebrate and be spoiled as a bride-to-be.

We’re all about unboxing some fun, so here are some great ideas for how to be pampered and celebrate this amazing adventure together:

Show Off Your Ring

Let the fun begin as soon as you open your “I Said Yes” box with a super soft tank that’s perfect for announcing your engagement and get those ring selfies going. Use your new ceramic “Mrs.” ring dish to keep that sparkler safe and sound when it’s not on your finger. Then grab your countdown calendar and get ready for more excitement!

Go Wedding Dress Shopping

Plan to go dress shopping with the people you love who will also give you honest but tactful feedback. We’re talking moms, sisters, and besties. Hand them our dress voting paddles to say yes or no to your looks, and put the champagne on ice for when you’re ready to say yes to the dress. Savor these days focused entirely on you and making sure you look stunning for your wedding.

Turn your Home into a Spa

Slip into your silky “Bride” robe, put your matching scrunchie on, and ask your fiancé to give you a massage. Light some scented candles, dim the lights, and put on a meditation playlist to set the mood. Prefer to have your bridesmaids over instead? Grab some nail polish and treat each other to Manis and Pedis.

Dress Head-to-Toe in Bridal Gear

If there was ever a time to be extra, it’s your wedding. So, why not revel in it?! Flaunt your new status in head-to-toe gear from The Ring Boxes. We’re talking rocking your Bride hat, “I Said Yes” shirt, Future Wifey socks, Bride tumbler, and Mrs. earrings ALL. AT. ONCE. Trust us; it’ll make you smile.

Stock Up on Your Beauty Rest

Wedding planning can be exhausting, so it’s important to prioritize at least 7 hours of sleep each night. Sip some chamomile tea from your “Mrs.” or “Officially Off the Market” mug, and curl up to your favorite book or TV show. Spritz some lavender onto your pillow and slip your “Bride” sleep mask over your eyes for a relaxing night of rest.

Be Showered with Love

Having a bridal shower is an excellent lead-up to your wedding day to build the excitement until your walk down the aisle. Decorate the room with balloons and our “Bride-to-Be” cake topper. Wear a cute white dress or jumpsuit and accessorize with your bridal hair clips, jewelry, and other goodies included in your Bridal Shower themed box.

Relax with Some Retail Therapy

There’s no greater jewelry shopping than shopping for your wedding bands together. Grab your partner and head to your trusted store. Be sure to bring your “Today, We Picked Our Rings!” milestone card and stash some jewelry cleaner wipes for later when you need them.

It’s Time for a Bach Bash

Get the pre-game started wearing your “Wife of the Party” tank and sipping from your twirly bride straw. Let your girls put on bachelorette-themed pins and temporary “Bride Tribe” tattoos from our Bachelorette Box. Then slip your bridal sash on, pose for photos with our props, and head out to party.

Write Your Vows

Take some downtime before your wedding day to write your vows, and it’ll help you focus on what is most important. Grab your diamond pens and vow booklets, and write down your thoughts. Speak from the heart and let your unique love story guide you. Celebrate once you’ve gotten the words on paper; the next time you read them aloud will be at your wedding ceremony!

Bag Up Extra Goodies

Plan for some fun at your wedding by packing yourself some goodies in your “Mrs.” tote bag. Fill it with special things for you and your partners like your favorite snacks, prints of your favorite couple photos, or an instant camera. When you need a break on your wedding day, reach for this bag.

On The Big Day

Slip your cutie an “I Can’t Wait to Marry You” note and read the message they left for you to get the day off to a perfect start. Then rock your best bridal gear for getting ready like the sparkling studs included in our “Big Day Essentials” box. Unzip your extra special bridal garment bag and wow everyone in your wedding dress.

Exit in Style

Take your wedding exit to the next level by decorating your getaway car and planning for rice to be thrown or guests to line up with sparklers. Don’t forget to affix The Ring Boxes “Just Married” car decal to the back of your car too.

Jet Off to Your Honeymoon

Pack your overnight bag with all the great finds from your Honeymoon Ring Box like matching luggage tags, “Just Married” Straw hat, “Happily Ever After” travel bag, “Woke Up Like This #Married” shirt, and more. You’re all set for a fantastic getaway filled with photos you’ll treasure forever.

It’s too easy to get caught up in to-do lists after your engagement, but we think treating yourself should be at the top of that list. That’s why The Ring Boxes exist, to pamper brides like you every single month up until the big day. 

And if there’s a groom in the picture, we even have a special edition box to treat him to some wedding goodies of his own. We hope you let us be a part of this amazing journey! We can’t wait to spoil you.
