Wedding Day Must Have’s
Not to toot our own horns (toot toot), but we have been doing this for years, and have just about seen it all. Here’s a list of our bus have items and tips for the big day that can be easily forgotten!
¨ Pair of scissors
¨ Phone charger
¨ Clothing tape
¨ Sewing kit
¨ Tide-To-Go pen
¨ Kleenex
¨ Baby wipes
¨ Safety pins
¨ Extra bobby pins
¨ Deodorant
¨ Band-Aids
¨ Lip color for evening touch ups
¨ Steamer for dresses
¨ Speaker for playing music
¨ Check all clothing and accessories for tags that need cut off
¨ Straws are great for sipping – preserving your lip color
¨ Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, bring snacks
¨ Break in your shoes beforehand – we recommend wearing them around the house in the months leading up to the big day. If you are unable to do so, consider sole patches/cushions for more comfort when wearing heels
¨ Lastly, don’t lock your legs when you’re standing at the alter – that never goes well
Tips for your Wedding Day
Some tips and tricks to help your big day run smoother
Start Early:
Begin your day with ample time I always say whatever time you plan on starting your wedding day back it up by an hour or two. We often fall into routines, but on your wedding day, you're stepping outside your usual patterns. This is a day filled with high stress and heightened emotions, where things can become quite chaotic. You will be thankful for the extra time.
Eat and Hydrate:
Have a nutritious breakfast and stay hydrated throughout the day. Assign someone to ensure you have snacks and water nearby.
Stay Organized:
Keep all important documents (contracts, vendor contacts, marriage license) in one place. Designate someone to hold onto these documents.
Communicate Clearly:
Ensure everyone knows their roles and responsibilities. Establish a point person for coordinating logistics and addressing any issues that may arise.
Enjoy Special Moments:
Take moments to pause and savor the day with your partner, family, and friends. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so embrace every moment! Planning extra time in your schedule will free you up for special moments.
Delegate the Clean-Up:
Arrange for someone to oversee the clean-up and return of rentals after the reception. This allows you to leave the venue worry-free.
