Murphy's Law states that if anything can go wrong, it will, at the worst possible moment. But you can break Murphy's Law on your wedding day by being prepared. By putting together a crisis kit, you can save your time, energy and nerves should something start to go wrong.
To create your crisis kit, decorate a bucket, basket or tote bag in coordinating colors. As you think of all the possible things that could solve your wedding day emergencies, take the items and put them in. Before you know it, you'll be more than prepared.
Here's a starter list of supplies.
- Fingernail polish. One in your color and one clear to fix stocking runs.
- Extra stockings.
- Anti-static-cling spray
- Mirror, brush, comb, hair spray, bobby pins, safety pins
- Deodorant and talcum powder
- Extra blush, waterproof mascara, eye shadow, lipstick, lip gloss
- Spray-on spot remover
- Hair dryer and curling iron
- Sanitary needs
- Cell-phone charger
- Telephone list of all members in the wedding party.
- Telephone list of your photographer, videographer, florist, caterer, limousine service, musicians, etc. Also include your second and third choices of these services in case of a last-minute cancellation.
- Plastic bags for quick clean-ups
- A pair of men's black dress socks, for the groomsman who shows up wearing white athletic socks.
Some of these items are available in travel sizes for convenience. This crisis kit also makes a creative bridal shower gift, or could be a project for the bridesmaids.
