Your big day is fast approaching, and you're on the cusp of starting a new chapter with your partner. As you meticulously plan every detail of your wedding, it's easy to overlook one crucial aspect that can make all the difference—your wedding day emergency kit. While everything may seem picture-perfect, life has a funny way of throwing unexpected situations our way. That's why having a well-equipped emergency kit is an absolute must-have for any bride or groom. In this blog post, we'll explore the essential items to include in your wedding day emergency kit, ensuring that you're ready to handle anything that comes your way.

  • Sewing Kit: A sewing kit with mini scissors and safety pins can save the day in case of a minor wardrobe mishap. From loose buttons to small tears, you'll be prepared to mend any unexpected clothing issues. Stick-on instant hemming tape is another useful item to have on hand for any quick fixes.

  • Hair Accessories: Bobby pins, hair ties, and hair spray will keep your hairstyle intact even during the wildest dance moves.

  • Personal Care Items: Don't forget essentials like breath mints, medications (Advil, allergy or others), band-aids, super glue, clear nail polish, and tampons to be prepared for any discomfort or emergencies.

  • Beauty Must-Haves: Include eyelash glue if you're wearing falsies, travel-sized lotion, oil blotting sheets, Q-tips, static guard, and a small brush or comb to keep your look on point.

  • Fragrance + Makeup: Pack a sample spritzer of your face perfume and carry your preferred lipstick, lip gloss, and/or lip balm as well as a finishing powder for touch-ups throughout the day.

  • Comfort Items: Prepare for dancing and changing shoes by packing flip-flops or flats, sole inserts, and solemates heel protectors.

  • Snacks + Hydration: Having a healthy snack and water at hand can prevent any "hangry" moments and ensure you stay hydrated throughout the day.

  • Personal Grooming: Don't forget an emery board, hand/body lotion, sunscreen, and face mist (if relevant).

  • Miscellaneous: Incorporate a crochet hook if your dress has buttons, shoe polish, spare shoelaces, eye drops, insect repellent and bite ointment (if relevant), hand sanitizer, and a small personal fan for comfort.
