Celestial Seasons makes a Tea called Wellnes Tea, it has zinc and ecinacea and it tastes yummy. It also soothed my scratchy throat and helped my itchy eyes and nose when I was coming down with a cold a few days before I had to fly to my friends wedding.
Get plenty of rest and drink fluids! If you can take a product at night like Nyquil to help you sleep, that should help your body heal faster.
Oh and one more thing, Halls vitamin C drops, they sooth your throat and give you germ fighting vitamin C!!
Hope you feel better!

Take Tylenol cold and flu medicine, or another variety of cold/flu meds, go the the Dr. if you can, and stay in bed and rest until the last possible moment. Sleep can be the best medicine. Lots of fluids. Good luck!

Don't take too many meds otherwise you'll be loopy during the wedding. Drink lots of water, take some Emergen-C and take a hot bath. The steam will loosen the cold.

Emergen-C and sleep!!! I always take Emergen-C when I feel a cold coming on, it has tons of Vitamin C and others to help your body fight off whatever is making you sick. You may need anti-biotics if it is a flu, but they wouldn't help you in time for the wedding. Good luck!

Get drugged up! I'm talking Sudafed, Tylenol, Robotusin. Call in sick, and stay in bed! Get yourself well! Eat good, healthy food, and drink only water.
And remember... even if you get sick, you only need to pull it together for, like, 3 hours. You just have to get through the wedding and reception. You can do it!!!
Feel better.

mucinex works great - it's a little expensive but it will definately do the trick You will be fine in 2 days... take that, drink a lot of liquids (preferably orange juice), and get as much rest as you can

Go buy Airborne and Echinicea. Load up on liquids, don't go out if you don't have to and don't work out. Get a neti pot and clean your sinuses with saline.
get lots of rest.
