How to Create the Ultimate Wedding Emergency Kit | Free Checklist | The Weducation Series

Yes, you really do need a Wedding Emergency Kit.

How do I know? Well, because I’ve personally been to over a hundred weddings and someone always forgets something. Always.

Actually, it’s happened enough that we now stock our own Wedding Emergency Kit, and replenish it as needed throughout the busy wedding season. We go through a “big supply buy” usually in the Spring, and I’ll tell you, we didn’t start with a list this massive – but now that we have it, we are glad we do. For us, it’s truly a Wedding Emergency Kit – but for most of our couples, these will be things you will need on your wedding day, no matter what – emergency or not.

We keep our kit in a giant black rubbermaid tote, and yes, it takes up a lot of room. But we use it at every wedding, and you’ll definitely use this Ultimate Wedding Emergency Kit at your own wedding, too.

The link for the checklist download is at the bottom – and don’t forget to leave us a comment if you think we’ve forgotten anything!

  • You may have noticed something new around here.  As we align our brands - @gsquaredwedding and @gsquaredsessions we felt that this best match for who we are as people.  The mountain is one we see daily out our front windows - Mt Pilchuck.  And the star - we both love stargazing and find a special magic in the stars (and the moon!).  We are so excited to be rolling out the new GSquared just in time for @mysnohomishwedding  Tour on May 31.
