A sewing kit. Your wedding attire is going to be in the center of attention, so being

They usually contain a bundle of resources that can easily fix your clothing woes such as needles, thread, safety-pins, and scissors. Rips and tears will be easily mended, along with your worries!
Essential toiletries. Stashing toiletries such as deodorant, perfume, and mints in your emergency kit is definitely a good idea. These products are likely to be in demand throughout your wedding day. From dancing to eating all night, these items will help you and your bridal party stay fresh for all of the mingling you’ll be doing. So spritz on some perfume, swipe on a layer of deodorant, savor some mints every few hours to feel refreshed.

Pain relievers. Don’t let a headache or any other pain ruin wedding day. Consider stashing ibuprofen or acetaminophen in your DIY Wedding Day Emergency Kit along with odorless muscle cream and other first aid staples such as band aids.
