Wedding day packing - what to bring?

Sylphier, on June 2, 2017 at 12:46 PM Posted in Planning 0 33

I am trying to get a jump on things and pack my 'bridal bag' with all my wedding day items and I wanted to check in here to see if anyone had suggestions for me to add to it in case I am missing something important.

So, my packing list is as follows

- Jewelry [Head piece, earrings, bracelet, necklace]

- The rings

- Veil

- New perfume/lotion [picked a special new scent as I had seen suggested]

- Dress undergarments

- Petticoat

- Dress

- Makeup bag

- Shoes and back up shoes

- Facial cleansers and make up remover

- PJs to get Hair and make up done in

- Nail kit

- Allergy medicine

I definitely feel like I am missing something so suggestions for things to add would be great!

    One thing I kept needing the morning of, but didn't have was a pair of scissors.

    @La Grosera oh gosh I bet that is exactly what I felt I was missing lol! That would have been a major problem since my venue is in the middle of freaking nowhere. You are a life saver.

    @Goldfisch I think I have a moisturizer in my make up kit but thats a great idea I should check, And ooo I hadn't thought of a toothbrush, definitely adding to my list! I'll be eating lunch almost right before our first round of pictures so that could end poorly. haha.

    LICENSE!!!

    And this might sound weird,but if you're photographer is going to take a photo of the signing, maybe a cute pen?

    @24kMagic Oh good idea! I will just toss my whole mini sewing kit in there actually,

    @VC and Celia LOL you know I packed that but forgot to actually list it. Yes can't forget that.

    @Celia also ooo I love the pen idea! We plan to sign during out actual ceremony so definitely will be pictures, a good pen is a great idea!

    @Mke Bride I wear normal glasses and don't have any little clip ons for them but that would be a good idea otherwise.

    @MrsMcK oo yes I need to make sure to pack the tissues!

    @Sooziep123 Oh my garter! I do have a set so I would be sooo mad at myself for forgetting those.

    ARG.....piggybacking on the sunglasses...

    Bring sunscreen; your makeup probably has some, but your arms and your guys (especially those with shaved heads?) need it. I have watched many a bridal party turn color before my very eyes....

    If you are doing getting ready shots, bring copies of your stationary (invites etc) so they can be taken.

    @VC oh I completely forgot about the invitations shots. Yeah can't forget those!

    @Mrs Koalajetski I have most of those things separate already but I do guess I should add some pain medicine and stuff.

    Yes to sunscreen! I was also going to suggest that and a pen. Celia and I are on the same track today. I'm marrying a ginger and also am one myself, so we are always concerned about sun protection lol. I wear glasses and just get sun glasses big enough to wear over my glasses. I look dorky but whatevs. ETA: something to prevent chub rub if that's not already a part of your undergarments

    Mine also includes Band-Aids and Tylenol. I don't want to have to send someone to Walmart over a bridesmaid having a blister.

    I would also pack a razor, deodorant, along with the other stuff you packed and I would pack Tylenol and pepto, meds in case your belly gets upset or with bowel issues!

    Our photographer did "details" pictures beforehand. She suggested having a nice hanger for the dress.
