Making a Wedding Day Survival Kit for Your Groom


After one of our brides made a wedding day survival kit for her groom, we decided to do a little feature! After all, it's super cute and adds a little special touch that will get your groom anticipating and pumped for one of the biggest days of his life.

Theresa made this kit for Juan and included not only Reeses Pieces, Lifesaver Gummies, a Ring Pop, peppermints, and a bottle of Woodford, but also included a simple note reminding Juan how long they have been together. 

So, if you want to make something like this, it's definitely a sweet idea to make your groom feel extra special on his wedding day!

How To Make a Wedding Day Survival Kit

This is pretty straight forward, right? All you do is take a few items that you know your groom will love, write a note, and give it to someone that will make sure he gets it!

We recommend picking out something that is specific to his interests. For example, if he loves IPA beers, maybe throw in his favorite. If he likes to play golf, make it golf themed and maybe throw in a few golf tees. You get the idea, right?

Other ideas for things to put in your groom's wedding day survival kit:

  • His favorite candy
  • Flask
  • Cigar
  • A nice watch with a custom engraved note on the back
  • Personalized bottle opener
  • Personalized cuff-links
  • Tie-bar
  • Fun, bright, or classy dress socks
  • Tickets to a game they'd love to go to
  • "Open when..." letters (Open when...we get buy our first house...when we have our first child...etc.)
  • A scrapbook of special moments and memories from your relationship
  • Pocket knife
