Hitchhiker's guide to weddings? 14001 views

After the months of planning, the lists, the spreadsheets and numerous phone conversations you might think you have everything organised for the perfect wedding - but somewhere a spanner lurks for your works. What do you do when the unforeseen happens? Breathe deep, keep calm and find a solution - it really helps to have a calm and organsised Best Man or Chief Bridesmaid in these situations.

Welsh bride, Michelle Smith, and her father climbed into a luxury Bentley limo to get to Michelle's wedding at St Gwladys Church in Bargoed. They only got a minute down the road before the car broke down.  To make matters worse the driver couldn't contact his colleague who was driving the second wedding car. The Bentley had come to a standstill outside a local car dealership and the bride's Dad, Mike Williams, was sent in to explain the situation and to try and borrow a car. On his way into the dealership, Mike saw a friend in her Citroen Picasso and hitched a lift for himself and Michelle. They made it to the church - 20 minutes late, and were met by a very nervous groom. From then on though all went well. The couple went on to honeymoon in Dubai and the Maldives.
