As a mom I like to prepack all the svashka essentials beforehand. Its also good to go over all the gifts with svashka before its dropped off at he wedding barn. I would prepare a list of the main family members she can keep in her pocket especially if she is unfamiliar with the grooms family. Another way to keep track of the grooms family is to have the groom to whisper to the svashka each time a family member sits for gift giving.

• Svashka apron
• Receipt book
• Pens
• Plate
• Bride to-go bag, including pins, clips, ribbon, comb
• Lestovki, padrooshniki
• Shawl, brooch, safety pins
• Shash, incase grooms side forgets thiers
• Kasinka
• Church scarf & large scarf for bride sale
• headpiece
• Coat/sweater for bride & groom
• Go over all gifts with svashka
