So when the big day FINALLY arrives, you want to be prepared for any minor problem, OR, Heaven forbid…major disaster. You need a wedding day emergency kit!
I suggest assigning a trust-worthy female member of the wedding party to be in change of “the bag”. Maggie is going to be in charge of “the kit” at KK’s wedding. She is very organized and is good under pressure. She will doubtless be more composed than the “trusty female” who STARTED tending “the bag” at HER wedding. That was I. I packed so much, I couldn’t find a simple bobby pin. So word of caution… Don’t overpack. KK took over from me when she observed my fumbling mess.. And things were smoother from them on out. If you do choose to have emergency provisions, the following is a list which should include:
Bride’s personal make-up items for touch-up
Fashion tape for last minute adjustments
Band-aides
Mini sewing kit
Advil, or other pain reliever
Tums
Immodium – please God—no!
Tampon –again- No!!
Tissues!!
Hairspray
Deodorant
Castile soap and or baking soda for MINOR spills
Static guard
Wrinkle releaser
Wisp/ mouth wash
Safety pins
Earring backs
Emery board
Encourage the “keeper of the bag” to familiarize herself with the provisions prior to the wedding. In the event an item is needed, she can whip it out in seconds!
