I love to travel, whether for a destination wedding, conference, or leisure, so naturally, I have perfected the must-haves when packing for your time away. Use my list below as a packing guide when attending your next destination wedding! 

Hand Sanitizer (that doesn’t smell bad) 

Hand sanitizer is a must! No matter your mode of transportation, from an airplane to a car, it is essential to sanitize your hands. And if I have learned anything over the last few years, you need to have one that actually smells good. My favorite sanitizers are from Noshinku. With multiple scents to choose from, there is something for everyone, and they have a sleek design that makes it easy to pack and carry. They are also eco-friendly with refillable containers and pouches. 

Travel Phone Charger 

You know you can’t leave the house without a charger for your phone, let alone for a getaway. I suggest traveling with one that is wireless to make it easier to charge on the go.

Travel Containers

Pack your favorite beauty and skincare products in cute, compact containers from Cadence. These beautiful capsules are TSA-compliant, leakproof, and magnetic to save you space and keep everything together. 

Kindle 

One of my favorite purchases has been my Kindle. It allows me to bring a library of books without weighing my carry-on or luggage. Just be sure to download your books before your trip, so everything is ready to go, and you don’t have to rely on spotty wifi. 

Camera

Don’t rely on just your phone for photos. One great thing about being on vacation is being able to put away your phone, so really set it aside and use a camera to capture memories. My favorite lightweight options for travel are the Nikon z50 Mirrorless or Nikon f100 35mm. 

With these must-have travel items, you will be prepared to enjoy your time away at a destination wedding, whether near or far.
