Emergency Checklist For Your Wedding Day

Being prepared for mishaps on a wedding day is so important. Even a small snafu can really change the course of the day. I created this emergency wedding day checklist so that now matter what the day throws at you, you can be confident that you can handle any situation. The emergency checklist is based off of my own wedding day experience and also the many weddings I’ve had the pleasure of photographing. Some items are so common sense that you’d never think you would leave it behind, like your toothbrush. But I can’t tell you how many of my brides had to use the “finger toothbrush”. Or had to use an office rubber band in place of hair bands. And yes I’ve actually had two grooms with no socks! One even forgot his own shoes as well!

The point of this emergency checklist isn’t to stress you out. But to help you understand that sometimes mistakes happen on the wedding day. With this checklist you can be prepared and feel confident that no matter what happens you got this!
