This handy checklist will assist you in packing those items that you either remember at the last minute or panic because you completely forgot.  You can’t foresee every emergency but you can be prepared for most of them. 

Use a carry-on bag or a gym bag but make sure that it is packed well in advance.  A good idea is to assign a responsible person to take care of the bag on your wedding day, have that individual keep it with them and that way you know exactly where it is at all times.
