If you have ever attended a wedding or served as a member of the wedding party, you know that things do not always go as smoothly as planned. That is why it is a great idea to pack an Emergency Wedding Kit. You and your bridesmaids will feel more secure knowing that you have your grooming supplies stashed nearby.
Here is a list of items you may want to pack:
Nylons - Don't forget to add a few extra pairs for your birdesmaids!
Clear Nail Polish - Great to stop snags in nylons before it becomes a run
Aspirin, Alka-Seltzer, Antacids, Eyedrops, and Allergy medicine (if necessary)
Masking Tape- To fix hems
Emery Board/Nail file plus a bottle of the nail polish you are wearing
Hair Accessories-Hair dryer, hair spray, brush, comb, curling iron, bobby pins etc.
Safety Pins
White Chalk - Great for covering stains on a white dress
Tissues
Small sewing kit- needles, threads, scissors,
Wet hand wipes
Make-up remover pen (or wipes) to fix smeared eye makeup and lipstick
Make-up - Lip gloss, foundation, lipstick, mascara, powder, blush etc. Put all your makeup plus a compact mirror in a small cosmetic bag for quick touch-ups throughout the day.
Breathmints
Small bottle of water
Healthy snacks such as granola bars in case someone in your bridal party feels weak before the ceremony.
Shoe polish, lint brush,
Cell phone - Don't forget to turn off before the ceremony! You will be busy for the next few hours!
It is a good idea to pack your Emergency kit the day before the wedding so you don't forget anything. During the reception have one of your bridal attendants stash the kit away for easy access
