Between nail appointments, getting a spray tan, visiting with family and friends who are in from out of town and ensuring all your decor and vendors are ready to go, you might overlook some key necessities when it comes to what to pack in your wedding overnight bag. Not to worry, we’ve done the thinking for you! If you’re heading to the hotel the night before your wedding, here’s what you’re going to need:
- PJ’s
- Toothbrush
- Hairbrush
- Your usual skincare/haircare routine items (face wash, lotions, sunscreen, shampoos, etc.)
- Deodorant
- Extra clothes for the day after
- Phone charger
Wedding Day:
- Robe or getting ready outfit – here are some cute ideas if you aren’t sure what to get!
- Bridal undergarments
- Perfume and lipstick (you will want your own lipstick for touch-ups throughout the day)
- Dress steamer – Contact the hotel and see if they have one available
- Make sure to pre-order room service (snacks, bottled water, champagne etc.)
