Emergency Kit

You've planned a flawless wedding and believe with all your heart that it will go off without a hitch.
You family has thought about and planned for any eventuality. However, should "Murphy's Law" show up, the wise bride and her wedding consultant always have an emergency kit available!
What should go in your kit? These are the basic items we recommend for every kit. Add your own items as you see fit.

• A small sewing kit. At a minimum, be sure it has thread to match your gown, the bridesmaid dresses, the mother' dresses and the tuxedos. There should be a variety of needle sizes, small scissors, and a collection of extra buttons for your gown (if appropriate) for shirt fronts, safety pins and hemming tape just in case.
• A roll of Flash tape (double sided sticky tape). This is used to keep low cut necklines in place, among other handy uses. You can find Flash tape at Aliber's! 
• A small medical supplies box. This should include aspirin or Tylenol, Tums or other antacids, band aids, breath mints and some Pepto Bismol tablets. 
• A box of personal grooming aids. Include a hair brush for touchups, hair spray, (used for both hair and for eliminating static cling on fabrics), bobby pins, hat pins (for securing boutonnieres), you make up, mouthwash, deodorant
• Rolls of scotch tape and white gaffer's tape (you should be able to get at a local hardware store) These are to be used on emergency fabric tears and on bouquets if they come undone. Also bring a couple of sticks of white chalk to cover up stains on your white gown. 
• Other miscellaneous items include: a lint brush, a pair of ballet slippers or flip flops for when your feet scream "take off the heels!", a small hand towel and wash cloth, a couple of ziplock bags, Kleenex and a bed sheet to cover the floor of the dressing room to protect your gown as you step into it. 

Knowing that you can cover most emergency situations should give you peace of mind. Of course, when you are prepared, emergencies are less likely to happen! It is also a nice gesture to put together a basket of some of the above items and place them in the bathroom for your guests, in case THEY have emergencies!
