This is a must read for anyone getting married! On the wedding day, there are so many things that can go wrong! When I got married, I mirrored my emergency kit based on the kits I made as a Leadership Consultant for Alpha Delta Pi when we installed a new chapter and had a massive initiation! We had a back up of almost everything, and supplies ready for small repairs. For a wedding, you must have this kit ready to go!
If you have a lot going on, make a list of your emergency kit and delegate it to a bridesmaid. She can run to Target and gather everything you will possibly need! Have her go to the travel section where they have mini bottles and sample packs of almost everything you could possibly need!
Here is my sample list of 40 items based on experience and from a few trustworthy sources! Pick and choose what you need. You might want everything listed here, or you just may need a few things.
