When I got married I thought my mom was going to be a basketcase all day - she's pretty high-strung - BUT she enlisted the help of all their really good friends so that everyone had a little minor job and she and my dad didn't have to worry about so much during the reception. Keep in mind, ours was rather large (we fed 800 people!) so there was a LOT to do. Those friends did such a great job that my parents had a wonderful time talking to everyone and dancing. Those same friends enlisted my parents' help later for their kids' weddings and everyone benefited! I think that's the key..... enlist lots of help! Good luck!
