What is an emergency Kit?
It is a wee bag/box filled with some of the things you might need in an emergency on the big day. Traditionally the maid of honour is in charge of making up this little kit but you can make your own or ask your mam to get one organised for you.
All you need to get started is a cute wash bag or a tote. I have made a list of some of the items that I think are most useful on the day. This can be altered in any way that you feel would best help you.
I always carry around a very small bag when I photograph a wedding for the most common emergency situations.
