What should a wedding's basic emergency contact sheet contain?

Answer

Direct answer

Include the venue contact, event decision-maker, first-aid arrangements and the correct local emergency contacts for the site.

Add the exact address, access instructions and who communicates with guests and suppliers. Make the sheet usable offline and share it with responsible people before setup begins. Protect private guest health details rather than adding them to a public list. Check numbers and roles for that event; copying an old wedding's contact sheet can create false confidence when the venue or personnel have changed.
