BRIDE'S EMERGENCY KIT

To create your emergency kit, decorate a basket in coordinating colors. As you think of all the possible things that could solve your wedding day emergencies, take the items and put them in your basket. Consider having a "personal attendant" to help you and your wedding party dress before the ceremony. She or you will need the following items:

• Fingernail polish: one bottle in your color, one in your attendant's colors, and one bottle of clear polish to fix stocking runs
• Extra stockings
• Extra comfortable white shoes
• Anti-static cling spray, spot remover
• Mirror, brush, comb, hairspray, bobby-pins, safety pins
• Deodorant, talcum powder and feminine hygiene extras
• Extra blush, powder, waterproof mascara, eye-shadow, lipstick, lip gloss
• Facial tissues, washcloths in plastic bag
• Bottle of white-out (yes the kind you use at work)
• Hair dryer and curling iron
• Sewing kit with thread to match formal wear & all gowns
• Iron or portable steamer
• Telephone list of everyone in the wedding party
• Money for last minute errands
