Wedding Emergency Kits


Your wedding day is one of the most memorable days of your life—but even the best-planned events can come with little surprises. As a wedding photographer, I’ve seen everything from button mishaps to sudden headaches. That’s why I always recommend brides pack a small *wedding day emergency kit* to handle unexpected hiccups with ease.


Essentials for Your Wedding Day Emergency Kit:


1. Beauty Fixes

  • Bobby pins & hair ties (for stray hairs or last-minute style changes)
  • Blotting papers or powder (to keep shine under control)
  • Lipstick or gloss (for touch-ups after all those kisses!)
  • Small mirror for on-the-go checks


2. Fashion Fixes

  • Safety pins (lifesavers for dress emergencies)
  • Double-sided tape (for securing necklines or straps)
  • Mini sewing kit (just in case of any wardrobe malfunctions)
  • Stain remover pen (goodbye, accidental spills!)
  • Chalk (easily hide stains on your white dress!)
  • Crochet hook (for buttoning all those tiny buttons on your dress)


3. Health Essentials

  • Pain relievers (for headaches or sore feet)
  • Band-aids (for blisters from those gorgeous new shoes)
  • Tissues (happy tears are inevitable!)
  • Breath mints (for that perfect first kiss)


4. Just-in-Case Items

  • Clear nail polish (great for stopping a run in stockings)
  • Phone charger (because you’ll want to capture some behind-the-scenes memories, too)
  • Snacks & water (keeping your energy up is key)


**Pro Tip:** Assign a bridesmaid or family member to be in charge of the emergency kit—this way, you can stay focused on enjoying your day while they’ve got the little things covered. Remember, a little preparation can make all the difference, ensuring you’re photo-ready from the first look to the final dance!
