Bridal Emergency Kit - What to include

I was just wondering what you should include in the bridal emergency kit...any suggestions. Thanks in advance

Re: Bridal Emergency Kit - What to include

  • Hope this helps!! The Knot posted an article with suggestions regarding emergency kits. Helpful things to put in it could include:

    • Aspirin (or pain reliever of choice)
    • Band-Aids
    • Bottle of water
    • Chalk (to cover up any last minute smudges or smears on your wedding dress)
    • Clear nail polish (for stocking runs)
    • Corsage pins
    • Dental floss/toothpicks
    • Eye drops
    • Extra earring backs
    • Extra panty hose
    • Hair pins/ponytail holder
    • Hand towelettes
    • Hem tape
    • Matches
    • Mini sewing kit
    • Safety pins
    • Scotch tape
    • Sedatives (don't ask!)
    • Small folding scissors
    • Smelling salts (while we don't expect anyone to faint, it has been known to happen)
    • Spot remover
    • Static-cling spray
    • Straws (so the bride can stay hydrated without messing up her lipstick)
    • Tissues
    • Tweezers

    They also wrote that the MOH (or MOB, MOG, whomever will be by your side) should keep these items handy:

    • Breath mints/spray
    • Cellular phone
    • Comb/brush
    • Cash (because you never know)
    • Hair spray
    • Linen handkerchief
    • Makeup (for touch-ups)
    • Mirror
    • Nail file
    • Perfume
    • Tampons/sanitary napkins
    • Granola bars or other easy-to-carry snacks

    • Krazy Glue (for nail fixes, shoe heels, decorations, even jewels)

    • Sunblock

  • I would include benadryl for allergic reactions. As my sister's wedding two years ago, my older sister was stung by a been during the ceremony. I had my own emergency kit that I had made for my sister and was glad there was benadryl.
  • Thanks for this post! Totally forgot!!
