Event Planner Interview Question:

Tell me about one bad experience you've had, preferably something catastrophic, how did you handle it? Was the event still a success?

Because vendors at HF donated their time and services, we could not guarantee their commitment. One vendor, the face painter, canceled 30 minutes before start time. In order to avoid false advertising, I purchased a face painting kit from a local craft store and found a volunteer to paint guests instead. It worked great.
