Have an escape plan.
I mean it. Bride an Groom should ahead of time decide on a approximate time to leave the reception and how. I stress approximate NOT exact time.
Otherwise you get caught up in all the fun and could miss your train/plane or whatever for your honeymoon.
Plan ahead of time how much your maximum alcohol intake is going to be and then reduce it by at least one drink, stick to that nothing sucks more then being drunk on your wedding night. It's also part of that special day so enjoy it, you can get drunk another day.
Expect that SOMETHING will go wrong, don't stress on it though. That way when the caterer face plants the cake or the best man drops the ring trying to hand it to the groom you can laugh about it (umm later if it's the cake, just pickup the ring and get on with it).
genuinegirly mentioned keys, have a spare set handy just in case. I once saw a wedding where the groom locked his keys in his car, the wedding party waited a hour or so till CAA showed up and unlocked the car (I was very popular when I finally showed up and unlocked his vehicle. Bride, Brides Maid and both mothers kissed me even though I was covered in dirt an grease.)
