Have backup gear. Think outside of just speakers and lights. If weddings are a priority for you, what else might be considered backup gear?
The backup gear in this case was a small little piece of fabric. Typically, a piece of fabric worn on the leg of a bride during her wedding day.
After participation was requested of her guests for the garter removal & toss, the bride looked at me with horror as she realized the garter that she’d carefully selected and ordered from Etsy wasn’t actually on her leg as she’d thought. It was still at her Mom & Dad’s place in a dresser drawer.
Moments later… I discretely stuffed my backup garter into her hand and suggested she slip quickly into the kitchen and put it on. Two days later, she gave me the garter she’d ordered from Etsy with the suggestion that I keep it for the next bride who forgets hers. She also thanked me for making the moment happen without anyone else knowing what went on.
