You’ve booked the venue, finalized the menu, picked out your dream dress, and nailed down the guest list. But as your wedding day approaches, it’s easy to get caught up in the big picture and forget about the tiny but very important details that make everything run smoothly. Those last-minute tasks may seem small, but they can have a huge impact. To help you breathe easier and avoid any unexpected “oops” moments, keep reading for some last-minute wedding details you absolutely shouldn’t overlook!
Emergency Kits Aren’t Just For The Bride
You’ve probably already heard about packing a wedding day emergency kit, but we’re not just talking about a couple of bobby pins and lip gloss. You’ll want to have items on hand for all sorts of scenarios. Think of adding things like fashion tape, stain remover pens for surprise spills, a mini sewing kit for buttons and zippers, and pain relievers for sudden headaches. Also consider essentials like deodorant, hair ties, mints, bandages, and even a few safety pins. And don’t forget the groom and bridal party. That’ll probably need a few items too.
Vendor Tips, Payments, And Contact Info
In the whirlwind of the wedding day, the last thing you want is to be dealing with payments or logistics. Prepare labeled envelopes ahead of time with tips and final payments for your vendors, and hand them off to a trusted friend, family member, or wedding coordinator. It’s also a good idea to have a printed list of vendor contact information and arrival times, just in case there are any hiccups. If your florist is running late or your driver needs directions, you don’t want those calls coming to you while you’re sipping champagne in a robe.
Meals And Snacks For The Wedding Party
You’d be surprised how many couples forget to eat on their wedding day. Between hair, makeup, and photos, it’s easy to run on adrenaline and forget you haven’t had a bite since breakfast. Make arrangements for lunch or snacks for you and your wedding party while you’re getting ready. Something light, easy, and non-messy like wraps, fruit, or granola bars, can make a huge difference. Also check with your caterer to make sure your vendors are taken care of such as your photographer, DJ, and planner. They are with you for hours, and they’ll work better when they’re fueled.
Signage, Decor, And Plan B Logistics
You may have the big decor pieces set, but what about the little things? Directional signs, welcome signs, and table numbers can easily be overlooked. Have someone do a quick walkthrough to ensure everything is placed where it should be. And if you’re having an outdoor ceremony or reception, don’t forget to double-check your rain plan. Confirm any rentals, umbrellas, or backup spaces and make sure your coordinator knows the go-to plan if weather takes a turn.
