Day of Timeline (Hair, pics, etc)

Hi Everyone,
Would anyone be willing to share their day of timeline? Our ceremony is not until 8pm with he reception following. I am wondering how much time I will need during the day to get ready. Basically, I am having make up and hair done, then a shorter strip tour (not even sure how long to make this) with photos of just FI and I. I'm not sure what time to book hair and make-up for, or when to get the limos for the ceremony and photo tour. Any advice? :)

    Mine's in my bio.
    This is a neglected planning bio.
    This is a belated married bio, with no reviews yet because I'm lazy.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284

    8- Wedding
    8:45- Limo back to Luxor for our in suite reception
    9:30 cupcakes, drinks

    Thanks Girls!
    @Aegrish- your timeline looks a lot like what I anticipate mine looking like. I'm wondering if you are getting ready at the ceremony location (the 5:00-6:00) timeslot or in your hotel room... I'm not sure what to do with this since we are getting married at Flamingo, which does not provide a room beforehand (UGH! Should have looked into this when booking). So I kind of feel like we may need to be dropped of at MB (our hotel) THEN back to Flamingo... seems like a lot of running around. BTw- thanks for your timeline, it made me feel more confident in mine!!
