Bride's Essential Packing List

All of the listed items here, even the marriage certificate, have been over looked in the potential chaos of last minute packing, at many of the weddings we have covered.

I recommend you start now, 3-6 months before the big day, by picking up small items and putting them into your special bag.  These small items can really make the difference the morning of the wedding.  Treat yourself to a stress free morning and cover your bases now. Have the bag sitting near your day bag in the corner of your bedroom and add things as you purchase them. They are ALL items that can be thrown in your travel bag at the end of the day and go on your honeymoon for possible wardrobe malfunctions there too!
