A Bride's Emergency Kit contains items that may be needed on short
notice, such as being able to repair a ripped hem or replacing a ripped pair of nylons. With "Kit" in hand, you'll be well prepared
for these small "emergencies".
To start, purchase or sew up a small cloth bag. Decorate the bag
with some ribbons or other type of decoration to make it more festive.
Include the following in the kit:
* 1 pair of pantyhose
* 1 small sewing kit (a needle & various colors of thread)
* 1 small bottle of clear nail polish (good for nails or stopping runs in nylons)
* 1 small bottle hairspray (get sample size bottles at drug stores)
* 1 small package of wet wipes
* 1 lipstick (try to get small samples from a cosmetic department or from an Avon representative)
* 1 package of Certs or gum (to freshen breath)
* 1 small package of Kleenex
* 1 small container of Aspirin or other headache medicine
* 1 small bottle of foundation or foundation powder (for touch ups)
* 1 small pair scissors
* 2 or 3 Band-Aids
* A few safety pins in assorted sizes (for fallen hems, seam splits, etc.)
* A few hairpins
* A couple of tampons or napkins
Being prepared with this small kit can make a big difference in
your frustration level should something unexpected happen, especially when your attention is focused on other important
details. In fact, why not create one for each of your female attendants? I'm sure they'd be very appreciated!
