Wedding Emergency Kit - What Every Couple Should Have Around on Their Day
A wedding day emergency kit is a must and coming up with the perfect things to have with you on your day is important! Accidents happen, and it's always better to be prepared (AND you can keep this in your car afterwards). You'll be a lifesaver so many times for yourself and other people, so the money spent on it won't go to waste.
Having a Wedding Planner makes it easier, because they'll always have an emergency kit with them (you should see ours! It's the envy of all them men, it's such a nice tool kit!). But just in case, we have a great list for you on the must-have items to have in that kit for your wedding day!
Essentials
Aspirin (or pain reliever of choice)
Chalk (to cover up any last-minute smudges or smears on your wedding dress)
Clear nail polish (for stocking runs)
Smelling salts (while we don't expect anyone to faint, it has been known to happen)
Straws (so the bride can stay hydrated without messing up her lipstick)
The matron or maid of honour should keep the following items on hand at all times in a small evening bag for the bride:
Breath mints/spray
Phone, of course
Cash (because you never know)
Makeup (for touch-ups)
Optional Items
Granola bars or other easy-to-carry snacks
Krazy Glue (for nail fixes, shoe heels, decorations, even jewels)
Pipe Cleaner (for those decor details, you'd be surprised how often you need it!)
At Amanda Douglas Events we have a HUGE emergency kit we have with us at every wedding or event. Some of the items we have in our kit (on top of everything that's already listed above):
A Knife (sounds scary but scissors just don't do the trick sometimes)
Feminine Hygiene Products
"Reserved" Signs
Crazy Glue
Every type of tape
Paper & Pens
Goo Gone (Life saver!)
Deodorant (his and hers)
Bandaids
And a few other things we'll keep to ourselves :) Happy Planning! List source
