- Mini sewing kit with scissors, needles, thread, buttons, and safety pins: For those “make it work” moments.
- Tweezers -From stray hairs to splinters, you never know when you’ll need these nimble helpers.

- Bottle of water & Granola bars or other easy-to-carry snacks - Nobody wants a hun-angry bride on their hands!

- Q-tips & makeup remover - Eyeliner mistakes happen. But they don’t have to stick around.
- Blotting papers - For absorbing shine and oil, not your fancy makeup.

- Power Bank and Charger - The bride is stuck in the makeup chair, her phone’s about to die, but she needs to call the caterer. Suddenly, you’re a lifesaver.
