Remember that the specific items you need to pack might vary based on your personal preferences, the cultural and religious customs, the location of the wedding, and the season. It's a good idea to start packing a few days before the wedding to ensure you have everything you need and to give yourself time to add any last-minute items. Also, consider designating someone like a bridesmaid or a close family member to help you manage your belongings and ensure that everything is taken care of on the big day.
