One of the most important jobs we have is to be prepared for everything (anyone else singing this song right now with us? no? just us? ok then) - bad breath, minor hair emergency or maybe a slightly worse stain/tear emergency.
Here is a list of what we have in our wedding day emergency kit so you can make your own, or if we’re helping on your big day, trust that we’re ready for anything!
Safety/Health
Bandages (we like to have both regular and waterproof)
Aquaphore (this size is great for so many things - chapped lips, small cuts, dry skin)
Ibuprofen
Benedryl
Pepto Bismal
Beauty
Hair ties (we have the clear elastic ones, which work for all hair and can easily be hidden)
Bobby pins
Safety pins
Hairspray
Fashion tape (for when you’re showing too much)
Hem tape (for when you’re not showing enough)
Comb
Lint roller or removing sheets (consider this a PSA to always have one with you in life)
Nail clippers and file
Clear nail polish
Mirror
Freshen up
Mentos (because you don’t want to have to spit gum out later, also who misses the commercials?)
Floss
Tide To Go Pen
Contact solution (because someone might have dry eyes)
Tissues (because everyone else definitely won’t have dry eyes)
We also always talk to couples about making sure that they (or the families) provide some snacks - not too messy, include some protein, easy to snack on between activities (or if you’re feeling nervous and a giant sandwich doesn’t sound good). It’s a long day and it’s easy to forget to eat, but we’ll be there to remind you :)
