Brides today are always looking for ways to avoid problems and minimize mishaps on their wedding day. A wedding day emergency kit will be your savior, filled with toiletries and other essential items you may need. While this may not solve all your wedding day mishaps, it can at least assist in helping make the best of a situation. Here are our items to put out in your wedding day emergency kit.
Sewing Kit
Rips and snags can happen, especially when you’re moving quickly while getting ready. A needle and thread will come in handy for any gown mishaps. You don’t need to be a seamstress to know how to do a quick repair, so putting one in your emergency kit could save the day for you or someone else. Have some extra thread in the colors of your bridal parties’ dresses so it matches. Add a small pair of scissors for any tags or snags that may happen.
Hairspray and Bobby Pins
Hair emergencies can happen, and your hair and make-up team won’t be around all day. Having hair spray will come in handy for any flyaways. While everyone will have their hair styled before the ceremony, it’s easy for the hairstyle to get messy and hair spray can save the day. Likewise, bobby pins can help put the hairstyle back in shape quickly. Bobby pins are available in multiple colors to match the hair colors of your bridal party.
Snacks
Snacks are an important thing to have in your wedding day emergency kit to help keep your energy up during the long day. While everyone should have a meal before getting ready, it’s possible you or the bridal party may need an energy boost. Healthy snacks that include fiber or nutrients will keep you going until the reception. Healthy snacks such as protein bars are also less messy.
Nail Polish in a Similar Color to Your Manicure
Chips can happen. Hopefully, you have spare nail colors from your manicurist to put in your kit. But just in case you don’t, pick up colors that are close to your manicure. Make sure you add a nail file and topcoat so the nail polish stays in the best condition.
Portable Fabric Steamer
Wrinkles can happen even if you do everything you can to be sure they don’t. A steamer will come in handy if you or anyone else needs something steamed in a hurry. The steamer works on dresses, skirts, and can smooth our collars and lapels.
Lint Roller
Dust, pet hair and loose threads can happen. A lint roller can be used to remove anything you don’t want seen on your clothes on your wedding day.
