A smart thing to do on your wedding day

Reading BP's weather post made me remember this and I wanted to share with you guys..  My best word of advice for your wedding day:

Make a list of all of your vendors, their contact info, important details etc.  Give this list to your MOH or another bridesmaid you trust to be organized and in charge.  Give your CELL PHONE to this same person.  Put them in charge of all communication the morning of the wedding.  This really came in handy for me when our limo broke down.. No one had to ask me anything, the girl I had put in charge had the list, called the limo company, etc and we worked things out.  The last thing you want is people coming to you asking you a zillion questions because no one else knows the answers.

    That is a great idea, first time I read it in my 20490566 still unmarried years on the knot.

    LOL - NCV - you'll be married before you know it ;)

    Steiff - I did not have a DOC.  My venue is very good with organization so I knew they'd be on the ball with coordinating the florist/band etc (consquently they were awesome with that).    I had a good friend of mine who was not a bridesmaid get to the church early tell people where to go, what to do, and shut the door behind me as I walked down the aisle :)

    Very good. I've been contemplating this more & more as the wedding gets closer, so I'm glad to hear that helped things run smoothly.

    THAT is an awesome idea.

    My MOH is so much more levelheaded then I am.  She can totally handle it.

    Thanks Oods!

    I e-mailed said list to the whole brideal party day-of and gave all our important vendors our best man's phone number just in case.  Came in handy, as our florist ran a bit late; she and best man got in touch very easily, though, and it all worked out just fine.
