Wedding Emergency Kit

First and foremost, we encourage the use of this checklist for getting ready, but many of the wedding emergency kit items are also good to have on hand during the festivities when surprises arise.

When you create your kit, we recommend also making a small basket to leave in the bathrooms during the ceremony and reception with things like mints, deodorant, a lint roller, floss, and tissue. Your guests will not only be impressed with your attention to detail, but they will appreciate it.
