Bronzer and concealer help!

I'm going to be a mother of the bride in 5 days! I've sorted primer, foundation, blusher, eye shadow, mascara and lipstick.
However I don't have any concealer and think it is probably necessary. Bit confused about it though. Does it go under or over foundation? Heard good things about the Soap and Glory concealer, but don't know if there are better (not too expensive) products out there. Help would be appreciated.
Also bronzer? The Clinique lady used some when I went for a consultation, but just can't decide if it's worth the expense. She put it on forehead, nose, cheakbones, chin and jawline I think. Probably won't get the Clinique one anyway, although both the Soap and Glory one and Rimmel get good reviews. Also do I have to avoid bronzer with any sparkle because of photography? I loved the Soap and Glory bronzer but it did have a bit of sparkle in it.
Can you tell that I'm a bit lost?

For bronzer, see if you can get hold of NYC's bronzer in Sunny - it's a cracking little matte bronzer, perfect for fairly pale skin and cheap as chips. Got mine on ebay for less than £3 delivered.
As for concealer, you can just use an extra layer of foundation under your eyes if you love your foundation. Otherwise, some cheap alternatives are Collection 2000's Lasting Perfection concealer which is great or even better (but may need shipping over from the US on ebay) is Maybelline's Instant Age Rewind Lifting & Brightening concealer (in a tube) - that one's lovely.11th Heaven prizes Number 103

Concealer goes on after foundation. I use Clinique airbrush concealer or Clinique all about eyes.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0
