Back-up Plans

With all the planning going on, has anyone made back- up plans for their plans if something happens?

For instance limo breaks down or gets 'REALLY ' lost. Bridemaid gets sick, your shy one bridesmaid. Spot on their dress? I know some ladies have a coordinator to help with these problems. What about those that dont?

I know should the limo break down my FH's uncle has a HUGE Jeep that can hold either party if need be.

For stains should some thing happen, somone told me carrying chalk (white) is good to mask small stains. I havent heard anything for make-up

Re: Back-up Plans

I don't know... those kinds of issues don't really seem like a big deal to me.

Limo breaks down: we get our butts in the car and drive. If we're in the limo at the time, we use our cellphones to call friends/family to come get us.

Bridesmaid gets sick: she doesn't walk down the aisle. If she's supposed to walk with somebody, they walk alone. No big deal.

Spot on the dress: soak it, use some shout wipes, if it doesn't come out, it doesn't come out, and life goes on.

I guess it's just not in my personality to get worked up over these things.
