Wedding Day Emergency Kit

What to pack in your day of kit for those just-in-case moments!

It’s your wedding day on the Emerald Coast! You’ve woken up from a good night’s rest, had a hearty breakfast, and you’re ready to start getting ready with your bridal party and glam squad. All of a sudden, the button on a bridesmaid dress goes flying across the room. Don’t panic – your wedding day emergency kit has all of the essentials you need to get you back on track! Our Destin wedding planners are detailing our most requested emergency kit items. Pack these items in a small makeup bag and keep them in your getting-ready bag for your wedding day.
