That's what I was thinking!

any medicines that you take even semi reg. Sinus, allergy, inhalers
I might add a pair of pantyhose/stockings
If your church doesn't have a vending machine you might want a bottle of water and a snack
perhaps a back up deoderant stick (just in case you forget to put in on in the 1st place

That's not a kit, that's a whole suitcase!!
I'm dying of curiosity- what's the pocket knife for? In case one of the BMs gets out of line?! LOL

I'm really not sure what it could be used for. I searched a lot of different kits and most of them had a knife in them.
I don't wear pantyhose/stockings so I won't need them
You all don't even want to see my list for my main bag. I say I don't have to use none of the stuff but I'm just scared I will need something and not have it. I know my luck something always goes wrong.

A lemon
2 pennies
Copper wire
So you can make a battery MacGyver,  , I’m just kidding. I always believe in being prepared so I will probably have a large emergency kit too. The only other tings I thought of was the clear nail polish and a snack but they have already been suggested. Oh, what about Q-tips I’m not sure if you do this but I get the little eye buggers out of the corner of my eyes with them so I don’t mess up my eye makeup.

My SIL and her friends have a big case that is the emergency kit that gets passed from bride to bride. She's going to be my personal attendant so I'm thinking that I won't have to come up with much because she'll bring along the giant case that's ready to go.

It's even got a check list inside so if you use something, you can mark it off so you remember to refill for the next person. It's pretty sweet.

I actually have some trade in ideas, instead of a clippers I'd bring a nail scissors and safety pins versus strait pins. Strait pins would hurt if you used them to say pin your bra down.

Chacha, once again, we're thinking the same thing! I was reading the list and thinking, WOW, what McGuyver could do with all that! I have no clue what a bride would do or need with half of that stuff?!
