Bridal Emergency Kit

It is Murphy's Law that something will always go wrong at the worst possible time in the most important of situations.  Even your wedding day is not exempt from this, so as the boy scouts have always told us, "Be Prepared!"

It is vital that every bride prepare herself a Bridal Emergency Kit, just in case. You never know when your stockings will ladder, when a sudden thumping headache will set in or when your bridal shoes will rub your feet raw!

Below is a checklist of the essential items for your emergency kit, to ensure peace of mind and the minimum of stress on your big day!

What You'll Need:

• A small sewing Kit consisting of pins, buttons, thread the colour of your gown, mini scissors, bob hair pins, safety pins (for everything and anything), sewing tape (for emergency hemming), two extra pairs of your Wedding hosery, dressmakers chalk (for emergency coverups), eye drops, superglue (when all else fails!), and Clear nail polish for possible reams in your hosery (Your nails may snag your nylons).
• Headache pills, bandaids, tampons/pads, eyedrops, lip balm, any prescription medication you may take.
• A mini beauty kit consisting of face powder, perfume, lipstick, mascara, hair pins, purse size hairspray, comb, clear nail polish (for ladders in stockings), purse size fragrance.
• A mobile phone and a complete list of phone contacts of everyone involved in the big day.
• A detailed map of directions to the church, just in case your driver gets lost (and it Does happen, believe us!)
• A favorable biblical scripture or inspirational sayin' to quote to yourself ( if it all gets Too out of hand!)
• Always have some extra money on hand or checks in case uninvited guests arrive to your reception.
• Have an envelope with your contracts on hand to ensure agreed proper and adequate services.
