One More Thing: Don’t forget your emergency kit

By Herald Staff

You can spend an entire year planning your wedding day down to the letter, but unless you have a fairy godmother, there’s no way to guarantee that the day will be perfect.
According to “Bride’s” magazine, a little preparation goes a long way towards ensuring that wedding day mishaps don’t get out of hand.
If you organize an “emergency kit,” and keep it stashed nearby at the ceremony and the
reception, coping with certain last minute dilemmas will be a breeze.
Bride’s suggest you start with a pretty basket, decorated to match your wedding theme, then include the following:
•Needle, thread, buttons and safety pins.
•Spot remover.
•Extra lipstick, powder, blusher, eyeshadow, fragrance.
•Comb, brush, and hairspray or gel.
•Tissues and cotton balls.
•Personal care items.
•Pen and note paper.
•Telephone numbers for your caterer, minister, organist, photographer, florist, bandleader, car service and each member of the wedding party.
•Extra stockings for you and your wedding party.
•Nail polish — color, to match your fi ngernails and clear, to keep stocking runs from
spreading.
•Extra pairs of glasses or contact lenses.
•Aspirin, adhesive bandages, allergy pills and any prescription medicines you or your
groom might need.
•Extra copies of all passages that are being read during the ceremony.
Keep in mind that the most important ingredients of all: patience and a sense of humor. They’ll turn any mishap “mountains” back into molehills.
