    Oh No! :eek::eek::eek:

    I may be being a bit dense (its not hard) but doesnt witch hazel help with bruises too? maybe try that. All else fails they should be fairly yellowy by then so wont be too hard to cover up.
    I know its hard but try not to worry too much, evrything can be fixed!

    Start applying a cold compress to the area before any substantial bruising starts. That way you can try to minimise it before it begins to darken. This can reduce swelling also.

    Definitely get started with the arnica asap and you should see a difference.

    If the bruising is still present on your big day, or it has turned yellow you can use concealer to disguise it. However as someone else mentioned make sure that this is a type of concealer that wont look white and cakey in your pictures lol.

    What a terrible thing to happen so close to your big day, I hope it improves and that you have a brilliant wedding day. Congratulations :)
  • UPDATE
    Saturday morning I went to the chemist and got Arnica cream and then marched into his work, dragged him away from the car he was working on and dabbed some under his eyes.
    His boss found it highly amusing! LOL
    Yesterday, the bruising seems to be reducing, but I tried him with some of my concealer last night and worst case, we'll be able to use that to cover it.

    I've told him when he finishes work on Tuesday night, he's under house arrest and he's only allowed out to 1/ go for his job interview on Wednesday morning and then to get my wedding present (of course!!!) and 2/ to go to my Nans on Thursday morning to get his hair cut.

    The next time he will be allowed to leave the house is on Friday to go to the wedding lol

    Glad to see you've got it under control now. I know it's difficult to imagine at the moment but I bet you'll have a good laugh at the episode in years to come.

    Well it's his last day in work today so here's hoping he doesn't do anything daft!
    I'm only in work for 3 hours then going to pick my dress up - very nervous! It means it's really happening then!
    Really looking forward to my Mum and twin little brothers coming over tonight, then my Dad comes over on Thursday night.
    Wish my Dad's boss would give him more than just my wedding day off. It means Dad will have to go back for the ferry at about midnight on the wedding day :(

    Wish my stomach would stop tying itself up in knots!!!
