CBD has continued to gain popularity and trend just about everywhere- even down the aisle! With its array of benefits, from beauty, to pain relief, and more, brides and grooms are incorporating CBD into their weddings for a special touch of wellness. Here are a few ways CBD can help on your special day:
Ease Jitters
There’s no denying that planning a wedding is an incredibly exciting experience, but many brides and grooms also find it to be overwhelming and stressful. CBD is becoming a popular option for alleviating pre-wedding stress, anxiety and jitters. Depending on how your stress manifests, there are a variety of natural CBD products, from tinctures to topicals and edibles, that could be exactly what you need to unwind and enjoy your day.
Beauty Treatments
CBD can also help with breakouts and inflamed skin to help achieve your wedding-ready glow. Research suggests CBD has significant natural anti-inflammatory properties. In topical applications, these properties can result in reduced puffiness, redness, and irritation. It is also a potent antioxidant shown to reduce oil production, making it a good acne-fighter as well. There are a variety of face creams and topical products couples can use to treat any bridal bumps and blemishes.Â
Treat Aches and Pains
As a known anti-inflammatory, CBD can also be used to ease any aches and pains that might creep up before your special day. Several wellness specialists have noted using CBD to quell heel pain before walking down the aisle, applying it topically for any strains or aches that might have developed leading up to the wedding, and applying CBD before the reception so you can dance the night away!
CBD Cocktails
CBD cocktails at weddings aren’t just for fun, but also provide an added therapeutic element to their guests. As an alternative to alcohol, the infusion of CBD into a signature “cocktail” can give guests a feel-good sensation without getting tipsy.
Because the interaction between CBD and alcohol (read our CBD+Alcohol blog) is not well-studied, it is recommended you provide some sort of disclaimer for guests who intend on drinking alcoholic beverages infused with CBD.
Party Favors
CBD gifts are a delightful twist on the classic party favor or wedding party gift and give everyone a much-needed calm sense of wellness. As CBD continues to grow in popularity, several cute CBD treats and packaged goodies have entered the market, so you are sure to find the perfect gift for your guests or wedding party to continue the feel-good vibe after the wedding!
Hangover Cure
CBD has been shown to get ECS back on track by restoring homeostasis, or balance, through its indirect interaction with CB1 and CB2 receptors. This gives it the power to relieve hangover symptoms, like nausea, headache and vomiting. Plan on taking CBD the morning after to ease into the next day and keep the party going!
