timeline and sweetheart table help!!

gigilinda87

So there's only 37 days left until the wedding and I will be traveling for 20 of them. I'm trying to get all the little things like the day of time line and seating arrangement done before then. Does anybody have any advice or templates for the day of time line? Since everybody is traveling for the wedding I was going to create folders with time lines and maps for the bridal party and other important-need-to-know guests. I know your supposed to allow extra time for things but I have no idea how long makeup, pics etc takes.also anybody have any etiquette tips for the sweetheart table? who's supposed to sit where? or should i just have the fiance and i sitting there? I'm full of questions so leave as many suggestions as possible!! thanks ladies

Look at the top of this page, where it says THE KNOT BOARDS in blue. Just under that, you'll see a button with a QUESTION MARK. Click on the button. The last section in that list is the section on acronyms used on the knot.

sweetheart table is for the sweethearts, i.e., you and your new hubby. you cna do this, or you can do the traditional head table which sucks becuase you split up dates.  or, you can do a few "head tables" which is what we did.  we sat with our WP and their dates (we only had 2 attendants) and then my mom was on our right at a table with her siblings, and then my in-laws were at a table on our left with the children of their siblings (aunts/uncles did not attend). I was up at 5am, had hair done from 530-730, we left for the church just before 8.  Pics were from 830-1030, 1030 to 1100 we took a breather, and H and our best man went up to greet guests.  Wedding was 11-1215, reception 1230-4pm.
