So
you say you are ready for the most important day of your life,
but do you have your Groom's Survivor Kit?
The kit is very easy to put
together, but you may want to ask
the best man or designated member of the family or
bridal party to take this task on.
First find a savvy, cool place to store these survivor items
for your stress free day. Storing items in places like an
accordion folder, duffle bag with compartments, or light weight
toolbox will work, but you can be creative and come up with
an item that can be used after the big day!. Whatever you
decide on, make sure it's something durable that will withstand
multiple handlers.
