Dealing with period bloating

So I have been planning my boyfriends 21st birthday for the past few months now. We are going to a club and I picked out a slimming dress I am so exited to wear. However (as ladies’ luck would have it) my period is due the day before the party. (My period is completely regular so I know I’ll definitely have it at that time). Anyways I during the first few days of my cycle I get HORRIBLE bloating (I look like a balloon🎈) so I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions to minimize the bloating? I’ve already tried raspberry tea and heating pads. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!!!
