So My Sunday Wedding... Freaking Out!(Spinoff to Gap)

Original post by VCanizalez

I am starting to become so discourage that I am doing my Ceremony ON Sunday at 2:30...
(I cant choose earlier bc there is a Mass that ends at 1:30)
BUT....
Since I am having a Full mass i should be done around 3:30PM... Then pics at church & receiving ln So i guess we should be out of Church by 4:30...

SO FAR Cocktail HR starts at 5:30...
and TRUST me I am SOOO regretting This =-(

I think this will leave me NO TIME for PICS at all!!!!!!
NOTHING
I originally wanted Gantry Plaza Sta park bc I wanted the city background, but i cant bc of the time... Now I want the Beach and I dont think its a good idea bc Im scared that TONS of ppl will b at the beach...

SO my first INSTINCT is to Move the RH Time to 6:30....
BUT MY WEDDING IS ON SUNDAY WHICH MEANS PPL WILL WORK ON MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF I MOVE MY RH TO 6:30 I THINK PPL WILL LEAVE EARLIER N LEAVE ME N FH ALONE THERE =(
What would you do?

If you were my guest and my Ceremony was at 2:30PM & Cocktail Hr at 6:30-7:30 & Partyyy 7:30-11:30...
WOULD you stay til like 11:00pm/11:30 & enjoy My Special Day with me?
OR
WOULD Leave early (9:30) Becasue I AM SO DUMB on wanting a Wedding on Sunday!?
OR woudl you NOT come to the Ceremony & just come to the WHOLE reception?


PLEASE RESPOND... I AM FREAKING OUT AGAIN...

Thanks Chica! Yes I had in mind to do cake til later on too....
Hopefully it works out good ...

Gracias...

Wow 1am?!!! wow .... das good!



Yea, we booked with a Viennese hour, and then pushed everything an hour later so Pastor April would be available to marry us. But I think of it this way - we dont have to go nuts with an afterparty this way! We can all just go back to the hotel and chill out in the suite!

If you end up getting a lot of people leaving early, call me and I will come eat some cake!

FH was VERY against seeing me before the ceremony - but was not willing to give up CH....it has to give somewhere....I know it's not really a tradition with Jewish families to not see each other - (FH is Catholic) we usually take pictures before ceremony but do a mini ceremony where FH will turn around and see me for the first time - photographers will catch this all - I know you want the drama of FH seeing you for the first time coming down the isle - but sometimes you have to compromise - your guests will have the honor of seeing you for the first time...if you want to be there for the CH - which goes VERY quickly I would put this aside and do the pics before ceremony - V something's gotta give or else you'll drive yourself crazy!!!!!



Yes I know... Thanks chica but unfortunately, I guess I have to drive myself crazy, there is just NO WAY we will see each other before the Ceremony. We are both agains it.. its not tha tI am the only one against it, but FH too...
We want to follow this tradition....

I dnno what I'll do...

I think you should listen to all the girls and stop underestimating yourself - you have family and friends that love you - even though I know you don't believe that! We love you and would stay to the end!!!!!




Thanks Chica!!!! I wil stop :)

PPl who LOVE me will be there rit? =)

We have the same exact gap on Saturday, 2:30 ceremony, 5:30 CH. the day before you.. If we're a little late to RH, too bad. IT's not going to start without us.

The day will go as the day will go. Too bad. People may have to wait a little bit.

How far away do people live? How far will most of them have to drive home after the reception?

I'm having a Sunday wedding..get this 4:30 ceremony!!!

6:30CH 8-12 reception.

I think the most important people will stay. I also sent out STDs and sent out my invitations early so people have plenty of time to take the next day off.

Also, are all of your guests 90? 11pm is not that late, exp if they don't have to drive more than an hour to get home. I wouldn't worry.

I don't think the beach would be crowded at all , esp late afternoon so late in Sept BUT I would choose Hall's Pond park since it is close to the RH so you have more time to get the pics you want and spend less time travelling IMO.

I would not skip the receiving line AND skip the CH, since that will drastically cut down on the opportunities you'll have to greet each guest, but it might be ok since you mentioned you are having a small wedding, so it will be easier.

Veronica,

Keep the time line you have, simply take out the receiving line.
You are going way ahead of yourself. Don't stress it out. Trust me you will have enough pictures.




THIS!!!

I know this is a personal choice but I prefer pictures over a receiving line and I changed mine from a mass to a ceremony. ...def allows more time with pictures

What if you don't do a full mass? then you will be done 30mins earlier

Sorry, it will NOT be possible....
That is a VERY important step in our life...
I guess bc we are Active Catholic we want to do it the right way (for us)
