We obsess over the things we all say we need to bring the day of to the wedding but did you really use everything you brought? Did you forget something important or that you thought you needed?
Here's my experience
What I forgot:
Large ceremony sign (this was leaning up against the wall in our spare room and was overlooked when I packed decor for the rehearsal. My husband picked it up from the house day of, but it didn't end up at the ceremony it turned into indoor decor mostly cuz I didn't write the directions either for where it goes).
Invitation (for photography purposes)
Tide to go pen (forgot this on the counter but didn't spill a thing that night!)
Waterproof mascara (makeup artist goofed and forgot this and none of my girls had any. I used her benefit rollerlash and it held up all night! I didn't cry and it didn't smudge or leave black flecks either)
Tips for vendors
What I brought and didn't use:
Makeup (I am a HUGE makeup buff but I didn't reapply all night. I at least thought I'd re-apply lipstick and some powder but nope. The night flew by and really I only went to the bathroom twice all night; all I did was blot my face).
Sewing kit
Bobbypins
First aid items
Ring's carried by the dog (This was supposed to happen but leave it up to boys and it get's done wrong. My dog's tux had a bow ribbon on it that you tie the rings too. Instead of putting the two rings together and just tying one knot with the ends, they tied each ring to each end of the ribbon and one fell off before the ceremony so they vetoed the decision. Basically I could've done it or assigned a bridesmaid to do so if I knew they were going to be so idiotic about it lol 
)
What were your items you forgot or didn't need? I think it could be helpful to future brides to not obsess over what we think are necessities. I am not saying don't bring a sewing kit! But I wonder how many times they are used.
