Wedding Day Survival Kit

On your wedding day you may spend the day fearing that everything that CAN go wrong WILL go wrong. If you think this will be you, you had better start the day prepared and make a “Wedding Day Survival Kit.” Ask your maid of honor or one of your bridesmaids to help you put this kit together and be responsible for its whereabouts that day. When constructing your survival kit, make sure you include some of the necessary items:

-Tampons

-Lipstick/lip gloss: It's always nice to touch up

-Bobby pins: for those loose hairs

-Safety pins

-Pain Killers: Advil, Tylenol, whatever your preference, but stressful days can cause bad headaches and NO BRIDE (or groom) wants a headache on THEIR day!

-Camera: for those impromptu candid moments

-Deodorant/Perfume: If being nervous or excited makes you sweat; pack your deodorant so that you don't leave stains on your (expensive) dress. You will also spend the day hugging and talking with people, so you will want to freshen up every so often.

-Deodorant Stain Removers: Check out Gal-Pal! I used it at my sister’s wedding and it was amazing! (www.gal-pal.com)

-Hairspray

-Clear Nail Polish: to help prevent chips

-Tissues: there will always be someone who cries at the wedding!

For the bag in which you will pack your Survival Kit, choose something fun and cute! The bag doesn’t have to be expensive either. Check out Target to see if they have fun bags or check out Vera Bradley for their cute totes! For example, if your dresses are red, pink, or even gold, this might be the tote for you!

Of course you can modify this kit as you see fit, but this should give you a good start. One of the perks of hiring Events Refined to plan and/or coordinate your wedding is that your planner will have a Wedding Day Survival Kit with them so you don't have to worry about anything! If you let us know your favorite shade of lipstick, we will be sure to include that in there as well!

Happy Planning!
