church problem

so we went to meet with the priest and our day was booked!!! we wanted 4 p.m but there is another couple for that time, The best he could do is 2p.m. This is a friday and our ch doesn't start until 7p.m. What time is everyone else having there ceremony and ch??? I've been so upset about this i feel like all of my planning has been ruined

By the time your ceremony and receiving line are done it will probably be somewhere around 3, 3:15. You need time to take photos anyway. Don't worry about it, I've been to many a wedding where I had to kill time in between, this is so not a problem.

See if your hall will open CH a little early or set up a hospitality receptionf or guests who arrive early. It'll be fine, promise!!

Awww Michelle! don't think thay way I think it the ceremony is at 2pm wouldn't bad at all 'cause it'll give u more time for pics, or how about using another church? Our CH/Reception starts ar 8:30pm on a Friday and the ceremony is at 5pm we did it like this so it'd give us enough time for pics 'cause we wanna have them taken in Old Westbury Garden.

thanks for that! everyones been telling me the same thing. just wanted some fellow brides advice

we really love this church, we also wanna take pics at OWG, but i feel like 5 hours in between is too long. I'm going to ask the douglaston manor if they can extend the ch from 6:30 -8:00.

i know i was not even thinking the church would be booked!

Seeeee I told you not to worry!

I dont think 3 1/2 hours in between is a long time....were gonna take pics during that time anyway so everyone else will just have to find something to do in the mean time!

Everything will be fine!

Did the priest ever call you back? and what did DM say?

IT'S NOT 5 HOURS IN BETWEEN!!! When will th ceremony and receiving line end?? Like I said, it's going to be like 3pm, so that's 4 hours and that's not unreasonable. In fact, I wish we had more time in between cause I'm afraid we're not going to have enough time for all the photos we want to take before and at the RH.

Like the other ladies, I think this will work to your advantage. I purposely made my ceremony for 1pm, and reception at 6. You and FH will want to spend a few minutes alone just enjoying the moment, and now you will have time to do that.

STOP STRESSING MICHELE! lol

it will be better this way you said OWG sooo beautiful i didnt know we were going there! Im excited! lol

Honestly you WANT it that way! By the time you have your mass and take photos then get to your venue it will be later than you think. Then you will want to take pictures at your venue as well or anywhere else. Think about how your hubby could see you for the FIRST time as you walk down the aisle! What a magical moment. I would say book it at 2. You'll see its so much better!
