This list is by no means a comprehensive list, just a list of the minimum things you need in an emergency kit.  Feel free to add anything you feel you will need on your wedding day.  Just don’t overload the bag to the point where it will be a real burden for the bridesmaid who will be carrying the bag.

Hopefully you’ll never need to use any of these items on your wedding day, but rest assured you’ll have piece of mind knowing that they’re close by you.  And if any unwanted surprises occur, then you’ll be well equipped to deal with the problem. You can then quickly get back to enjoying your special day. 

You can purchase a special bridal bag to hold these items, but that’s not necessary…especially since you will not be the one carrying it.  You can save time, money and effort by using a simple bag.  Ask a bridesmaid to be in charge of keeping the bag by her side at all times.  You should choose a bridesmaid to hold the bag rather than a groomsman as the bridesmaid will be with you at all times, especially before the ceremony and during the photography session before the reception. 

Wedding days are usually filled with chaos. From making sure the vendors are doing their jobs, to making sure the wedding favors are in place, and making sure everyone knows their roles and responsibilities, it’s easy for a bride to be overwhelmed.  With an emergency kit, you can ensure that you can also handle any surprises that come your way.
