timeline for photos

docjenny0001

Hi All-
I'm working on wedding day timeline and must have pic list. I recall a previous post where someone had laid out time allotted for various pictures with the different groups and I'm trying to the find the link. If anyone knows it or if you posted the photo grouping time list can you send it to me. Thanks.

Here is ours limited ...

10:30-11:00AM: First Look Bride and Groom Pics
11:00-12:30AM: Wedding Party Picts
12:30-1:30PM: Family Pictures
4:00PM-5:00PM Wedding Party/ Bride & Groom Pictures in the flower gardens

ETA: Our photog recommends 3-4 hrs for pictures but I think that depends on how big photos are for you. For me, they made the top of my list for importance.

Here's what our tentative plan is:

10-11:30: Getting ready pics (hair/make up)-At the hotel

12:30-1:15:  Getting dressed pics-At the church

1:15: First Look with FI

1:15-2:00: Pics of just me and FI

2:00-2:45: Wedding Party Pics

2:45-3:30: Family Pics

*All of our pics must be done by 3:30 for our 4pm ceremony.

We did 2 hours and it wasn't nearly enough.  Shan's got a good schedule having different time slots for different people.  We just had "pictures at 2:00" and it didn't go well because us girls weren't ready on time, plus the Photog's lights kept getting too hot, and then people kept wandering off so I wish we had done it the way Shan did and optimized our picture taking time.

Thanks :) My BMs are giving me a hard time .. but I have been a BM in a wedding where we had 2 hrs at 2 locations and we got maybe 4 pictures together ... another where it was 2 hours at one location and still only got 4-8 pictures together (and only 2 poses)
