The morning of timeline.. SO CONFUSED!!!

Me and my girls need to be ready by 12...I just got an email from my hair and makeup lady that her assistant is going to come at 6:00AM for the girls (there are only 4 getting their hair and makeup done) and she was going to show up at 10:00-10:30 to start my services

Does that sound ok? Will I be rushed if she starts at 10:30? Isn't 6am a bit too early for the girls?

This doesnt make sense to me.

TIA!

ETA: my limo is picking us up at 1:30pm. Photog is showing up at 12

My church is at 3:30 and we are most likely going to start getting ready at 9 am. I do have more girls than you though.

Also remember you want to be almost totally ready by the time the photog gets there.

I think 6 am is fine. Even if there's extra time... it's better because then you won't be rushed and you can get ready calmly and slowly. You don't want to be a rushing bride!!

Well she is not showing up to do my hair or makeup until 10-10:30.. so aren't i going to be a little rushed if thats the case? And my girls are going to be sitting around by 9am all ready?

Depends. Do you want them all ready for your photog to take your getting ready pics? Or do you want them to be still getting ready?
I don't know your pictures timeline.

I dunno im sooo confused I just dont want to feel rushed and at my hair and makeup trial when we did ONE trial for each it took like 2 hours! I dunno. I need to figure it out I guess. But if they get ready early im scared they will look all messy by 2:30 (the church)

thanks for your help hun

Well it seems a little early to me but who knows? Maybe she wants to be done with them by the time she gets to you. But if you figure she takes an hour per girl that would be 9:30 so even with breaks if she finished by 10:00 that seems kind of early. I would say if you don't care about them still finishing while she is doing yours you could DEF push it back a little. . at least an hour or so. .

Her assistant is doing all the girls starting at 6 and she isnt showing up to start me until 10-10:30. I just feel like theres something not right about it

OH I didn't realize your church was at 2:30! Yea that might be a little early. Can her assistant come at 8 instead of 6?

No idea.. I am asking them to come later.. like maybe 7.. and for them to come do me no later than 10. Well see how that goes.

We left my house at 2pm and my MU artist came at 11am and did 4 people (I didn't make my girls use them.) We were totally rushed. I only had about an hour to get in my dress and take pictures. I didn't get half the pics I wanted at the house because we ran out of time.

Re: The morning of timeline.. SO CONFUSED!!!

I don't know if this will help you at allllll but I'm going to get my hair done at 10 am, my make-up is getting done at 12:15 pm. I'm planning on getting dressed around 1-1:15ish. My photographer is showing up at 1:30pm to take some pics and my limo comes for pick up around 3ish for my 3:30 ceremony. Not all my girls are getting make-up done; me and 4 other people are. hair appointments range from 9am to around 11 am and my make-up girl will be at my house around 9:30ish to start make-up.

I feel like I just rambled on and on and on.....i hope I didn't confuse you with my rambling time line.....uggg only 10 days

I knew i was rambling .....That's a good idea 6 am seems sooo early for your girls! They'd have to be up ridiculously early. and a little earlier for you should be perfect so you're not stressed out

It actually sounds right to me. My hair/MU people are saying 1 hour per person. So if you have 4 girls they will be done at 10. You should leave yourself plenty of time so you are not rushed. you need at least 1-1 1/2 hours for hair and MU plus getting into your dress etc.

I have to say, I agree with this...they're probably figuring an hour per girl, at four girls...that's 6:00-10:00, then you kick in at 10:00 and prolly get an hour for each service, so done by 12:00. It's tight...if it were me, and let's face it, it's going to be I'd ask if I could be started by 9:30 just for peace of mind. Really, it s/ucks for the first 2 girls...especially the first one! Is it possible to have two assistants come, then they can start at 8 instead of 6?

Re: The morning of timeline.. SO CONFUSED!!!

I had four girls myself and my mom. We went to a hair place to get our hair and make up done. They had 3 people so we did it in shifts excpet me I had one person do my hair and make up. We got there at 10 and we didnt leave there until 1. My photographer got to my house at 1 so it was a little hectic. The limo picked us up at 3. I def did not have enough time we were very rushed. I hope this helps you just to give you an idea of a timeline.
