Don’t Worry, it’s in the Kit!
Anything can happen on the day of your wedding! Is your lipstick fading? Forgot to shave? Are you thirsty but can’t drink anything because you don’t want your lipstick to come off? Is your phone dying? Did the groom or groomsmen lose a sock? Wouldn’t it be splendid to have an emergency kit? This handy-dandy emergency wedding kit can solve your problems in a heartbeat! Also, this is one of the perks of hiring a wedding planner. Every wedding planner will have all of these items and even more! They are professionals and are always ready to tackle any kind of emergency.
There was an incident that happened at Jessie and Laurie’s Pink Wedding that Cloud 9 Weddings & Papers planned on May 18, 2017 at Evergreen Lake House. One of the dresses was missing the eye of the hook and the eye. Not to worry, Cloud 9 Weddings & Papers always has an emergency kit! We were able to fix the problem and no one even knew what happened.
