You may be looking up what essentials to pack for your wedding day! Grooms, here is the list of essentials you should make sure you have packed for your wedding day! I recommend gathering everything together a few nights before, this will reduce stress on the day of your wedding and ensure that you have all of the essentials.

Leading up to your wedding day, there are so many things to remember as well as many family members and friends coming in from out of town wanting to see you! I highly recommend gathering the following items a few days before your wedding day. Here is a packing list you can go off to help make sure you have everything you need:

• Wedding Rings: Keep them in a safe place or a special pocket in your luggage, even if you are getting ready at home. This way you know where they are!
• Vow Book: If you are doing vows, don't forget your vow book. Some couples have their vows or a story ready by the officiant.
• Gifts: Whether it's a gift for your future spouse or your groomsmen, make sure you set them aside with your essentials that you are bringing with you to the getting ready place!
• Toiletries: Hair products, deodorant, cologne, lotion, razor, shaving cream, toothbrush, floss, toothpaste. If you are staying overnight at your getting ready space don't forget shower essentials such as shampoo, conditioner, body wash etc. Also don't forget a link roller to keep your suit looking fresh!
• Medications: If you take any daily medications don't forget to pack them as well. Also I recommend bringing tums, ibuprofen, Tylenol, eye drops, contact solution, extra contacts and band aids.
• Tuxedo and extras: Don't forget your tux, I recommend hanging it by your luggage that you are packing with everything that you need. Make sure everything you need is together and don't forget the tuxedo rental bag to make sure that the rental place has put everything together. Make sure that you have your jacket, trousers, shirt, plus vest or cummerbund if that is part of your rental. Don't forget your other accessories such as: watch, shoes, socks, tie, cufflinks, underwear and belt.

The Day Of Your Your Wedding 

Don't forget food and drinks, especially water. In a lot of cases groomsmen get together earlier in the day to hang out. Keep yourself and your groomsmen happy with a bunch of food options! To make it easier, you can even have a breakfast pizza delivered to your getting ready spot or you can even opt for a meat and cheese tray! I always ask my couples if they need water or a bite to eat, because sometimes with all of the fun that is going on during the time that you both are getting ready, couples sometimes forget to eat and drink.
