You have planned, organized, and thought out every detail of your wedding day. One thing you forgot about….you!
If you are staying in a hotel for the weekend, you will need to pack for the rehearsal dinner, wedding day, wedding reception and sometimes even the honeymoon. Boy! That is that a lot of bags.
