  I say at least 4 hours. Example:
  
  3-3:30- Ceremony
  3:30-4:30- cocktail hour
  4:30- Bridal party intro
  4:40- B&G intro
  4:45- B&G first dance
  4:50-6- dinner
  6-6:30- dancing
  6:30-6:45- toasts
  6:45-7- cake cutting
  7-7:30- dancing
  7:30-7:45- bouquet & garter toss
  7:45-8:15- dancing
  8:15- last dance
  8:30- exit

  Ours will be 3 hours, with a cocktail hour. 

  
  

  4-4:30- Ceremony

  4:40-5:50-Cocktail Hour

  6:00- BP intro

  6:10-Our intro

  6:15-Our first dance

  6:20-7:00-Dinner/dancing- jazzy light music

  7:00-toasts

  7:25-cake cutting/dessert

  7:30-8:00-dancing (including FD/MS dance) 

  8:15-bouquet and garter toss, dancing 

  8:45- last dance

  9- exit

  
  

  It just depends on how much dancing/partying you'd like to have, and how much your vendors are charging. My DJs cheapest rate included 3 hours (won't be playing during cocktail hour) and we decided not to have him stay around for an extra hour before or after.

  Ours is going to be about 4 hours. It will probably go over...big drinkers in attendance

  
  I wonder if Prince William and Kate are registered at Target?

  Ours is about 3-1/2 hours. We have time stipulations at our venue: ceremony starting no earlier than 6pm...everyone off premises by 11pm (county regulations) and DJ needs 45 minutes to pack up.

  Ours is going to be 4 hours, with an after party to follow at the hotel (I rented a private bar/bartender).  We have some serious partiers.
