Ahhhh! Should I change my ceremony time?!
Have you talked to your photographer about it? They might be able to give you some experienced advice!
He said that it was PLENTY of time since we have such a small BP and they know our venue really well. I trust him but am getting nervous haha I think I just would love to eat at the CH and have to come to grips with that not happening because even if we were there we would have to do the mingling make our rounds and wouldn't be able to just eat lol
Most reception halls will set up CH food in the bridal suite for you guys!
Gotta confirm this!! Notice all I care about is eating?! This diet is killing me hahaha

Definitely check with your RH to see if they will bring your CH food to your bridal suite. FH and I decided not to go to CH so we can eat. We figured if we went down to CH then we would just wind up mingling and never eating. My RH also has tv's in the bridal suite so we can spy on the CH

Time
FH and I are pushing it but he refuses to take pictures before we're married. we also don't want a lot of posed photos so that helps! we are getting married at 6:30pm and having an hour and a half long cocktail hour and we plan on spending that time taking pictures. the first 45 minutes with the bridal party and the second half without. then just enjoying the ceremony.

FH was against a reveal at first, then he realized we'd miss CH, quickly that turned around. I was not going to be smiling for the camera knowing my giant shrimp cocktail was being eaten by everyone but me!!

Time
We have our church ceremony at 230 and our CH will begin at 630. The mass should be 45-60 min, and the receiving line should be another 30. The venue is amount 45 min away so that leaves a little over an hour and a half of photo time before CH. I don't mind eating into CH a little bit but I would love to make at least half it it - the food looks too amazing to miss!!

Our ceremony is at the church at 2:30 and CH doesn't start until 6. We'll have plenty of time for photos, which is good because I don't want to miss CH. But at the same time, I feel bad for everybody who has basically 2 1/2 hours to kill. We're going to give everybody a list of things to do in the area.
