What do I do with my train before the ceremony?

I'm very unsure what to do. I will be getting ready at the hotel and then taking a limo bus over to the venue for the ceremony/reception. Do I bustle my train for the ride over? I don't want it to get wrinkled but I dont want it to get snagged either. Do I just have someone (or two someones) carry it carefully?

Advice?

Thanks!

    Uh... my work computer has been nutty all day. I WAS on the "wedding attire" page when I typed this, but it posted here? What the heck? But I'll leave it here, you gals are all very smart so I'm sure you can help =)

    I drapped it over my arm and carried it everywhere. The only time I bustled was for the reception.

    yup same here.  i didn't bustle until the reception (and i bustled halfway through the reception...you'd be surprised how resilient trains are!  people were stepping ALL OVER mine and you could not tell anything was wrong with it in pics...)

    Thanks ladies! Thats what I thought but I wanted to check. My dress is very light so it should be very easy to carry it for a little while =)

    We did pictures, cocktail hour, and then ceremony. I just let it drag around behind me. I really didn't care enough to give up an arm for it! It got really dirty, but no one could tell that day.
