Peeing on your wedding day: It’s notoriously high on the “tricky bridal tasks” list—right up there along with worrying about the weather and telling your guests their kids aren’t invited.
And ever since bridesmaids became A Thing, they’ve been expected to help brides wriggle, squeeze and squat their way to a comfortable peeing position at least once during the big day.
But apparently there’s a trick to peeing on your wedding day, no bridesmaids required. Bonus: It only costs about 50 cents, because all you need is a big, black trash bag.
Watch: Women share their wedding day regrets. Post continues after video.
A word of warning: According to Offbeat Bride, the trick works best on fairly poofy dresses that don’t crease too easily.
Kristin Chirico at BuzzFeed also tested it out, and found it worked smoothly on the fit-and-flare (a.k.a. trumpet, or mermaid-style) silhouette. Chirico warns that massive ball gowns may be too big for this method, though.
You actually buy a “proper” version of this, called the “Bridal Buddy”, but if you ask us, you’re just as safe using the trick above.
Voìla! Now go drink prosecco and toast to your bathroom success.
