Girls with morning ceremonies

What time are you starting to get ready?

Probably around 5:30 - no later than 6:00.

I've been trying not to think about it

In all seriousness, I have no idea. My mass is at 10:30am. HOw long does it take to get ready? I have no concept of this.

5:00 - 5:30. We're doing pix before 11:30 a.m. ceremony.

Re: Girls with morning ceremonies

I'll do a count from the end, based on experiences my mother and MOH shared with me:

10:30am = ceremony

10:00am = bride must be at church

8:30am/9:00am = photographer will arrive for photos

8:30am = will get dressed

6:30am-8:00am = with hair dresser along with 3 BM getting hair done

5:30am = waking up and showering (except for the hair), then sharing the bathroom with 3 other girls and having a small breakfast.

Does this sound right to all of you?

My hair guy is coming at about 6:30 or 7, ceremony at 11:30 (no formal pictures before). Ugh, why did I agree to get married in the morning, FH and I are NOT morning people.

Re: Girls with morning ceremonies

I based my schedule on when the photographer was going to show up at the house. Our mass was at 11:00, the photographer showed up at 9:30, my hairdresser was there at 7:30 and I woke up around 6:00. This worked out fine for me, I actually got to the church a little bit early.

Ask your vendors what they think, that is what I did, I figured they were the professionals and did this more than I did so they would know best or at least offer suggestions!

Why do you have to be at the church so early? DH was there that early to check on things, but they told me not to show up until 15 minutes before the ceremony was to start.

I don't know, but it's in the contract we signed at the Church. Prob b/c the next wedding is literally occuring 45 minutes after ours, so they need to maintain a flowing time frame.
