How many hours between the ceremony & reception?

Original post by NovemberSue

Our church is at 4pm and the reception is at 7pm. Everything is pretty close. Maybe thats too much time in between. Oh well, too late now. I'm usually running late anyway.

Our mass begins at 4 PM...cocktail hour at 7 PM. It seems like a long time in between until you break it down. Mass will end at about 4:45, receiving line/pics outside of church 'til 5:15 ish, 1/2 ride to reception hall, an hour for pictures before cocktail hour.

It's a nice gesture for someone to open their home for guests to go to between ceremony and reception, but I wouldn't worry too much about it. You're the bride! You're in charge!! I can't tell you how many times we've had to kill time between wedding masses and receptions as guests. Now it's our turn
