You’ve planned everything down to the minute—from the aisle walk to the first dance. But as every married couple will tell you, something will always go slightly off-script.

Enter: the Wedding Day Emergency Kit. Think of it as your bridal party’s magical survival pouch. A bag of solutions for everything from “my lashes are falling off” to “why is it suddenly raining sideways?”

We’ve created the ultimate checklist just for Singapore weddings—because humidity, hawker sauce stains, and emotional aunties are real.


🎒 First, What Bag Should You Use?

Use a roomy pouch, packing cube, or makeup bag with compartments. Assign a bridesmaid (aka Chief of Damage Control) to be in charge of it. Trust us, this person will be your behind-the-scenes MVP.


💄 Beauty & Makeup Touch-Up Essentials

  • Blotting paper (it’s Singapore—your T-zone will glisten)
  • Compact mirror
  • Lip balm or lipstick (especially if kissing is involved 💋)
  • Eyelash glue
  • Hairbrush or travel comb
  • Hair ties and bobby pins
  • Setting spray
  • Mini deodorant
  • Perfume mini or roll-on
  • Tissues (for happy tears or random nosebleeds)

🧷 Fashion Fixes

  • Safety pins (for dress malfunctions or boutonnieres that won’t stay put)
  • Fashion tape
  • Mini sewing kit (don’t laugh—someone will need this)
  • Extra pair of earrings (for the bride or that one bridesmaid who loses everything)
  • Flat shoes or foldable slippers
  • Stain remover pen (yes, for sambal accidents)

🩹 First-Aid & Health

  • Panadol
  • Plasters for blisters (especially after photoshoots at Botanic Gardens)
  • Eye drops (for contact lens wearers or dramatic criers)
  • Antacid or charcoal pills
  • Sanitary pads or tampons (even if no one is due!)
  • Insect repellent wipes (especially for outdoor solemnizations)
  • Cooling patches for sudden heat exhaustion
  • Anti-hangover gummies – Just in case someone had “one too many” during gatecrashing, tea ceremony toasts, or the pre-wedding party the night before.

These gummies are packed with vitamins and made in Singapore, making them the perfect discreet little recovery helper. One before the champagne toast = fewer regrets later.


🍫 Food & Hydration

  • Bottled water
  • Straws (so the bride doesn’t mess up her lipstick)
  • Snacks like granola bars, crackers, or mints
  • Fisherman’s Friend or Strepsils (for post-ceremony voice loss)
  • Breath spray or mints (you’ll thank yourself)

🗂 Miscellaneous but Life-Saving

  • Phone charger or power bank
  • Copy of the wedding day timeline
  • Printed contact list for all vendors
  • Extra angbaos (yes, really—your cousin might “forget” hers)
  • Pen (for signing anything, including emergency receipts or guestbook pages)
  • Wet wipes or baby wipes
  • Ziplock bags (for wet umbrellas, used tissues, or rogue confetti)

Bonus Tip: Assign Roles

  • One bridesmaid in charge of the emergency kit
  • One groomsman to carry snacks and water
  • One overly-prepared friend with a Mary Poppins bag—there’s always one

Final Thoughts

Your wedding day should be unforgettable—for the right reasons. This emergency kit won’t prevent every mishap, but it will turn most disasters into minor hiccups.

Rain? Blister? Wine stain? Crippling post-hens-night fatigue?
