Between planning the wedding details and honeymoon, it’s easy to forget to plan one important aspect of your wedding: your emergency kit. While we hope you don’t have emergencies on the big day, it’s always better to be safe than sorry. I know sometimes things can get overwhelming, especially when the idea of worst-case scenarios or unexpected surprises pop into your mind… but that’s why, it’s always better to be prepared (like a girl scout)!

Check out the infographic below which I came across at Swatchbook Weddings for your emergency kit must-haves. Throw these items into a cute bag and give it to your maid of honor or to one of your bridesmaids to hold onto.

17. SAFETY PINS: Last-minute fix to any misbehaving outfits or boutonnieres!
