Both Parents plus 2-Year-old in Wedding

So, my husband's brother is getting married this weekend. My husband is the best man and I am a bridesmaid in the wedding, and our 2-year-old is a ringbearer. I've been in many weddings, but I've never had to manage a toddler at the same time. We'd leave him home with my parents, but he's in the wedding, too.

Sleeping Area for 1 Year Old Grandchild

We babysit my grandson one day a week and right now he takes naps in the pack n play. He's about 24 pounds so he will soon outgrow it.

Climbing Out of Pack N Play

My 2 yo started climbing out of her pack 'n play on our latest trip. She only got a small bump on the chin, but she was getting into things that could have been hazardous. Other than sitting in her room until she falls asleep (almost 2 hours last night!), how can I keep her in her bed. She has a crib tent at home and is definitely not yet ready for a big bed. I don't want to stop visiting the grandparents and taking other great trips!
