question about lots of time in between chirch and reception

im asking this for my friend who is a BM and is getting married 3 weeks after me.
her church is at 3 and the reception is at 7 i think.

they are obviously taking pictures after the church but what does the bridal party do? we wont be needed for all the pictures. do we just stay dressed and go wherever they go?

what are you ladies with similar situations doing?

yup - you stay dressed and follow the bride and groom around. That's how it's been done every time I've been a BM - you'd be surprised how quickly the time goes though.

ITA! That's how long there is in between my church & RH. It really isn't that much time at all, it goes so fast, because there is so much going on.

Yup - BP just walks around with the bride and groom.

My ceremony is at 3 and my CH is at 7:30, so this will also be happening at my wedding.

I'm SURE my BP will be hitting the bar, WAVE, at Danfords before the cocktail hour begins.

Yes, bridal party goes with bride and groom for photos in between. It does go quickly! Bring a snack in the limo - I remember starving at my cousin's wedding because I didn't really eat much in the morning!

they go with the bride and groom because they will be in some picture where ever they may be taking them after the church.
