Wedding day survival guide

'We're married' by lemonjenny

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a Federal Agency concerned with, 'preparing for and responding to public health events' has published a Wedding day survival guide on its blog.

The guide advocates three main steps in surviving the wedding day: Get a kit, Make a plan, and Be informed. In a slightly tongue-in-cheek fashion, the CDC guide says that 'planning for a wedding isn’t that much different from planning for a disaster.'

The common sense guide suggests items to be included in an emergency kit and keeping an eye on the weather - be it tornado warning, bushfire alert, flood or torrential rain advice, saying, 'A little rain on your wedding day is one thing; a severe weather situation is another.' Like a boy scout, the CDC advocates that it's best to be prepared for whatever's coming.
