Hi guys, so I've been reading everyone else's timelines but it hasn't really helped with my own. My ceremony is at a strange time, 2:00. The reception is immediately following until 5:30. The maids and I are staying in a hotel the night before, and the groomsmen are staying at his best man's house. We have the bridal suite at our venue open to us at 1:00. Basically, we want to get all the pictures finished before 1 and then do a first look and try to get all family pictures done before the ceremony. I honestly don't know how long all that is going to take, and my photographer is very new to weddings, so I want to make sure we will have enough time. She is bringing along another person so they don't miss anything, and we also have someone else offering to take more artsy photos for us as well. I guess I just want to hear everyone's experience with timing the day of. My hair stylist is coming to us at the hotel, and we are all doing our own makeup. Here is a rough sketch I have right now:
8:00- hair stylist arrives
9:00- mom brings breakfast/coffee/mimosas
10:00- photographer arrives
12:00- start taking pictures with bridesmaids
1:00- arrive at venue
1:15- first look
2:00- ceremony
2:30- pictures
3:00- reception
Can anyone give me a copy of their timeline if they are having a 2:00 ceremony?
Thanks!
