i spent months preparing my wedding, it was almost completley diy. the night before we set up the reception space, made bouquets and set up flowers, and made all of the food. i felt very prepared.
everyone seemed to have a really good time. i think the best part was the food. it was a winter wedding so we had chicken and biscuits and scalloped potatoes and ham.
that is great that you had a backup plan for that. it sounds like it was great and i bet everyone was very impressed!
