Essential Wedding Day Emergency Kit: Top 10 Must-Haves for Every Bride


Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!

As you get ready for your big day, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement and overlook some important little details. After hosting hundreds of weddings at the Radisson Plaza Hotel & Suites in Kalamazoo, The Wedding Studio team has come up with the top 10 must-haves for your wedding day emergency kit. Trust us, these essentials will be a lifesaver!


Sewing Kit

From a loose button to a torn seam, a mini sewing kit can be a lifesaver. Pack a few needles, thread in various colors (including white and black), and a pair of scissors. It’s a small kit with a big impact!

Stain Remover

Spills and stains can happen in an instant. Keep a stain remover pen or wipes handy to tackle any unexpected mishaps quickly. This little tool can be a real game-changer for maintaining your pristine look.

Fashion Tape

Perfect for securing a dress that might be shifting or a neckline that needs a little extra support. Fashion tape is a discrete solution to keep everything in place.

Comfortable Flats

Although you may wear your stunning heels during the ceremony, a pair of comfortable flats will be much needed for dancing or even standing. Keep them closeby and switch when needed.

Deodorant and Perfume

 Smelling and feeling good are key! A travel-size deodorant and your favorite perfume will help you stay fresh and feel confident throughout the day.

Emergency Makeup Kit

Throw in a few touch-up items like lipstick, powder, and mascara. Wedding photos will capture every moment, so a quick fix will keep you looking flawless.

Pain Relievers

Wedding day nerves can totally give you a headache or two. Bring along some pain relievers to stay comfy and focused. 

Hair Essentials

Pack a small comb or brush, a few bobby pins, and hair spray in your kit. These will help you fix any hair problems that pop up during the day.

Floss and Breath Mints

Post wedding meal, you’ll want to keep your smile fresh. Pop some floss and mints in your bag for a quick refresher. 

Extra Phone Charger

Your phone will be buzzing with calls and texts all day. An extra charger will be your lifesaver at the end of the long day. 


Bringing along a wedding day emergency kit may seem unnecessary, but it can really save you in the moment. By having the essentials packed, just in case, you’re able to relax and there’s no need to stress out and you’re prepared for anything that is thrown your way! Cheers to a beautiful and stress-free day.

Happy Wedding day!
