- Stain Remover to the Rescue:
First things first – stains happen. Whether it’s a rogue glass of red wine or a smear of lipstick, a stain stick or these wipes are your best friend. A quick dab and voila! That pesky stain is history, and your wedding day outfit is back to looking fresh and clean. - Sewing Kit for Quick Fixes:
Let’s face it – wardrobe malfunctions are bound to happen. That’s where a sewing kit comes in handy. Whether it’s a loose button or a popped seam, a few quick stitches can save the day and keep your outfit looking picture-perfect. I can’t tell you how many times a pair of tiny scissors has saved the day. - Safety Pins for Everything:
Safety pins are like the duct tape of the wedding world – they can fix just about anything. From securing a loose hem to taming unruly bra straps, having a handful of these bad boys on hand can save you from all sorts of wardrobe woes. Plus, you’ll use these WAY beyond your wedding day. - Pain Relievers for Headache-Free Fun:
Let’s not forget about the dreaded headache that sometimes comes with all the excitement of your big day. Keep some pain relievers on hand to nip any headaches in the bud and keep the party going strong. Liquid IV is our other suggestion. STAY HYDRATED! - Band-Aids for Blisters and Boo-Boos:
Dancing the night away in those fabulous shoes can sometimes lead to a few blisters. Keep some band-aids in your emergency kit to provide some much-needed relief and keep you on your feet until the last dance. - Snacks for Hangry Emergencies:
Last but not least, don’t forget about snacks! A hungry bride or groom is not a happy one, so keep some granola bars or other portable snacks in your emergency kit to keep those hunger pangs at bay.
