How To Make A Bridal Emergency Kit

How to make a bridal emergency kit

Every bride dreams of the perfect wedding that goes off without a hitch. Sadly life usually has other plans. When planning your wedding it is always a great idea to plan ahead for minor disasters so you can enjoy your wedding even with its little hiccups. Any wedding planner or maid of honor should consider making a bridal emergency kit as well. A wedding emergency kit is a small kit with everything you need to fix small disasters so you can move on with your day and it is easy to make your own. 

Start with a base of a nice bag that will blend well with your wedding. Going with bridal white or one of your wedding colors will do the trick. Make sure the bag is big enough to hold everything you need. 

One of the most common issues at weddings is with wardrobes. In your kit add a small sewing kit with thread that matches the wedding and bridesmaids dresses along with black should the men need assistance. Hem tape is a handy way to skip sewing is a hem needs to be shortened quickly. You can never go wrong with extra safety pins. 

Super glue is handy for fixing broken shoes, securing ribbon on bouquets and other small fixes. 

Nail polish matching the bride’s nails and a clear topcoat. This will allow for quick nail repairs as well and using the clear coat to stop snagged nylons from running. 

Place hair supplies in a makeup bag with a brush,/comb, hair spray, bobby pins, and hair ties. This will allow for quick fixes to those beautiful hairstyles the bride and bridesmaids had done. Tip Take photos on your phone of finished styles from each side before the hairdresser leaves so you can fix things quickly without guessing what it looked like in the beginning.

Keep a makeup bag with the bride’s basics like lipstick, foundation, eyeliner, and mascara. This will allow for quick touch-ups so the bride is always photo-ready. Keep a pack of tissues handy for stopping happy tears from messing up her makeup beyond repair. 

Deodorant and the bride’s perfume are always a good idea to keep in your kit. The bride will want to smell fresh all day and that will mean a quick freshen up or two when taking breaks on the dance floor. 

A bottle of water and quick snacks for the bride. It is easy to forget to eat and wear your blood sugar down leading to your wedding. Having snacks on hand will allow you to give the bride a quick fix should dehydration or hunger leave the bride cranky. It can be quickly remedied before it puts a snag in the day. 

Place a first-aid kit in the bag. This should have all the basics including over the counter pain medications, antacids, Pepto for upset tummies, and tampons just in case someone starts a cycle. No one wants to start while wearing a great dress and not be prepared.

Keep a phone charger base with cords for mini USB, type C, and apple devices in your emergency kit to ensure phones can stay charged.
