The Bridal Emergency Kit

by Stacy Ochsman

dscf0111.JPGThe bridal emergency kit is the pillar of the wedding day. Chances are that the bride and her bridesmaids will be getting dressed together, away from the house, or already at the country club or church. This is really the last moment in the entire wedding process that anything can go wrong. If it can? It will.

Hence, the Bride’s Emergency Kit.

We recommend that the kit include the following:
Toothbrush and toothpaste
Band-aids
Mouthwash
Mints
Safety pins
Sewing kit
Hand lotion
Emery boards
Neosporin
Tylenol or Advil
A bottle of water
A package of crackers
Kleenex
Spray-on stain remover

… and anything you think your bride or bridal party may need.

This is a great gift idea that one of the bridesmaids can put together for a bride, or, a group of girlfriends can share this from wedding to wedding.

    Saw the post title, had to comment - I’ve been MoH several times, and white/ivory chalk comes in handy, depending on the color of the bride’s dress. You use it to touch up the dress should it get besmirched. :)
