Bridal Essentials for your Big Day
So you’ve got the dress, the suit, the flowers and the shoes, but as any organised bride knows, there is lots more that goes into your wedding day bag. We’ve compiled a complete list of all of your on the day essentials, so you can ensure your wedding goes off without a hitch.
Emergency Kit
Nothing ruins a great day quite like a splitting headache or blistering shoes. Make sure you pack your bridal emergency kit with all the essentials including, pain relief, bandaids, a mini sewing kit, safety pins and stain remover. This ensures you can both look and feel your best all day long.
Sentimental Items
Though the old, new, borrowed and blue tradition may be out the window for some, sentimental items will never lose their place on your wedding day. Be this an embroidered handkerchief, your mothers pearl earrings or a new signature scent, make sure these items are safely packed in your wedding day bag.
Overnight Essentials
It’s easy to overlook your everyday essentials as you pack all the most exciting bits for your wedding day, but be sure to not forget your everyday toiletries like your toothbrush, toothpaste, hairbrush and deodorant. As the night comes to a close, you’ll want these essentials handy for the next morning.
Your Vows
This one might appear obvious, but be sure to print your vows and pack away in your vow book. This goes for any speeches you may do on the night also. You want to ensure you stay as in the moment as possible, so avoid reading your vows and speeches off your mobile phone.
Technology
It’s easy to leave your phone charger still plugged into the wall or that film camera you bought specifically for today in that super safe spot you left it. Be sure to pack all your essential chargers, cameras, and mobiles to ensure the day runs smoothly.
Most importantly, don’t forget to bring your good times and great vibes. This is one of the most special days of your life, so live in the moment and don’t stress. Things can be repurchased, but this day can not.
