Emergency Kit

Every bride should have an emergency kit near her at all times during the wedding day. While I don’t want to scare you, it’s very possible that the back of your earring will fall off or you will spill something on your gown.

Have someone you trust and that will be with you all day, gather the items for you and keep them with her during the day, just in case. You want to cover all bases, but you don’t want your friend carrying around a huge bag all day. I broke things down into "must-haves" and "optional".
Must Have on Hand:
Pain medication (Tylenol, Aspirin, etc.)
Band-Aids
Eye Drops
Mirror
Make-up for touch-ups
Hair Comb/Brush
Hair Pins
Perfume and deodorant
Nail polish, file and glue
Scissors/Tweezers
Hair Spray
Extra earring backs
Hand Sanitizer/Wipes
Tissues
Safety Pins
Stain Remover
Spray/Wipes
Breath Mints
Cell Phone
Wallet with extra cash
Camera

For Your Dressing Room:
Curling iron and/or straightening iron
Wrinkle-out spray
Tampons/Sanitary Napkins
Dental Floss
Easy to carry snacks (like granola bars)
Straws
Water
Hollywood Fashion Tape (to keep strapless dress in place)
Extra contact lenses and solution
Mini sewing kit with buttons to match your dress
Comfortable shoes (to change into during dancing)
White Gaffer’s tape (to patch tears in your dress)
