A Wedding Day Emergency Kit can literally save the day.
Emotions are trigger happy on the Wedding Day.
So prevent last minute meltdowns by packing a simple emergency kit.
A Wedding Day Emergency Kit to save the day.
It’s funny/not funny watching someone already emotionally trigger happy react to a minor blip.
Something as simple as a finger stuck through a pantyhose leg could set them off.
You most definitely want to avoid marriage-day meltdowns, whether the bride develops a hangnail or a bridesmaid simmering about bad hair.
So keep things as evenly keeled as possible by packing this list of emergency items ahead of the wedding day.
Just remember, though, that the whole week before the wedding is back to back events. If anyone dips into the emergency stash during this time, it needs to be replaced before the big day! Better yet, have multiples of everything in the Emergency Kit.
