My sister-in-law is getting married in Scotland this weekend and I have a master's degree in carrying everything without checking in (with Ryanair as well), because it's one thing to travel at your own pace and quite another to go to a wedding where you have to bring everything: dress, shoes, shoes for the open bar, bag, accessories… and a little jacket in case it gets cold since we're talking about the Highlands.
Therefore, I want to share the wisdom that this experience has given me by compiling the five essentials that I already have, but that now – lucky you – can buy cheaper thanks to Amazon's Prime Day offers.

Hand luggage backpack
This backpack with the measurements required by low-cost airlines will save our lives hundreds of times. I traveled to Dublin in the middle of winter with an identical one as my only luggage (and my sweaters take up a lot of space). This is more complete because it comes with organizers to make the most of every centimeter per 21.99 18.56 euros.
