So when the big day FINALLY arrives, you want to be prepared for any minor problem, OR, Heaven forbid…major disaster.

You KNOW that no one can do it better than a mother…so as ‘Mother of the Bride’, you should be responsible for “The Mother of the Bride Emergency Bag.”  Remember when your daughter was a little girl?  You had everything in your purse but the kitchen sink?  When she got a little older and you were a “Dance Mom” or “Sports Mom” you had it all – including fashion tape or bug fogger for those “outdoor events”?  Well, your daughter’s wedding day is one of “those days” times 10!  My dear friends, Tammy and Nancy, gifted me with the wonderful bag above, and I can’t tell you how excited I am to load it up.  Following are a few items that are must-haves:

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

Snacks – something with no red or chocolate – what in the heck would THAT BE?!?  🙂

Bobbie pins, white as well as bride’s hair color, in case you need to pin a veil or headpiece

Bride’s purse with her ID, credit card, a few bill, and whatever she may need for the wedding night.  It would be easy to forget a purse in all the frenzy of the day.
