Planning the Perfect Wedding, Part 10

Even the best of event planners sometimes get caught with the unexpected. Having the ability to think fast and be able to mobilize the troops in a hurry is a knack that the best planners have. But what happens to the couple that doesn't hire a wedding planner? They aren't going to suddenly jump off the altar and chase down a missing DJ. They don't have the time to check the cake delivery to see if their wedding cake is set up right, and they sure don't want to be trying to track down down an extension cord because the caterer's hot box won't work in the space allowed. For all of their earlier planning and dreams, you certainly don't want to see the day go by the wayside because of other's mistakes.

Having one or two people to be your eyes and ears throughout the day is one plan that is a must. This person should not be an immediate family member (they are busy celebrating with you!), but rather a very trusted and responsible individual that has the ability to make decisions very fast. They will have your best interests at heart, representing your visions and desires for the day.
They won't push their own agenda, won't be selfish with their actions, and will care for all of your guests as if they are their very own; in short, a "wedding-day guardian angel."
