Your wedding day is an unforgettable occasion, but it’s essential to prepare for unexpected emergencies, especially when it comes to your cherished wedding dress. 

At Once Worn Bridal, we empower brides with expert advice to ensure their dress remains flawless throughout the day.

 

Emergency Kit Essentials: Pack a bridal emergency kit with safety pins, needle and thread, scissors, and double-sided tape. Consider our “Bridal Survival Kit” for comprehensive preparation.

 

Steaming or Pressing: Arrange for professional steaming or use a handheld steamer with caution to remove wrinkles without watermarks. Hanging your dress in a steamy bathroom can also help.

 

Transporting Your Dress: Use a garment bag to protect your dress during transportation, especially if it has a train. Have a steamer handy for touch-ups.

 

Hanging Your Dress: Use a sturdy hanger and place a clean towel underneath to prevent dust transfer. Keep pets and children away from the dress.

 

Handling Stains: Blot stains gently with a cloth; use baby powder or cornstarch for quick fixes. Our kit includes a magic solution for temporary stain coverage.

 

Repairs on the Go: Pack a sewing kit for quick fixes like button replacement or seam reinforcement.

 

Emergency Alterations: Prepare for last-minute alterations due to unexpected changes in weight.

 

Styling Tips: Have a bridesmaid film a video of final fitting instructions to manage the bodice, train, or any convertible elements.

 

Avoiding Makeup Mishaps: Dress up after makeup application to avoid stains. Ensure hands are clean before touching the dress.

 

Extras for Your Kit: Include a lint roller, extra earring backs, breath mints, and tissues for added convenience.

 

Our Bridal Survival Kits provide everything needed for stains, static, repairs, and styling. For more details, contact us at info@oncewornbridal.com.
