12 Travel Essentials for a Beach Destination Wedding

Your boo is getting married abroad, and she's chosen a beach for her nuptials. It's a welcome distraction from work life and adds another epic vacation to your travel calendar. Before you board the plane, don't forget to grab the essentials (other than your dress, of course). You'll be traveling in comfortable style with these must-haves — just remember to pack them all!

Ban.do Color Wheel Travel Pillow ($24): When was the last time you caught an international beach-bound flight that wasn't rife with delays and early starts? Be prepared with a neck pillow that will make all of those travel naps much easier.

Paper Art Scissors EMERGENCY bag ($3): Don't rely on an arrival gift and get let down. Bring your own "emergency kit" with everything you'll need to survive the morning after.

Cico's Wavy Striped Round Beach Towel ($48): It's never a bad idea to bring a towel with you. If anything, it will be easer to find your chair when you're coming out of the ocean.

Shop Perfect Ten Bride Squad Swimsuit ($45): Announce your affiliation to anyone and everyone each time you rock this suit. Really though, you're team #love.

  Retro Basket ($24): A good beach bag will let all the sand filter out before you get back to your room. This one does just that and works for day-tripping with the bridal party too.

Anthropologie Rose Gold Travel Adaptor ($36): Most hotels will have standardized plugs, but the last thing you want to do is fry your hair straightener the day of their wedding.

Urban Outfitters Travel Jewelry Box ($24): Your earrings and necklaces are too pretty to be rolled in some underwear and tossed at the bottom of your luggage. This should be a travel staple by now, but in case it's not, grab one ASAP.

Tide To-Go Pens ($7): Do you really want to entrust your gorgeous dress (or suit) to the resort cleaners at the last minute?

Map of London Passport Wallet ($103): Your mom was right. Having your passport, cash, and tickets all in one place when you're running through the airport really is worth it. Especially when you're hitting the duty-free store.

The Container Store Packing Cube Organizers Set of 6 ($60): Having to cram everything into dedicated pouches does have some merits. Not only will it all fit (no more sitting on luggage to zip it), but you can easily find items when unpacking.

Steamline Luggage Artiste Pink Carry On ($780): Ideally you'll ditch the duffel bag and buy some "adult luggage" before your 30th. Invest in a quality piece like this that will last for years and oh-so-many weddings.

Silk and More Blossoms Kaftan ($68): Why use the hotel robe when you can bring one of these luxurious and lightweight ones to lounge around your room in? You can even use it for a cover-up at the pool.
