Re: Time line
Here's what I have from a timeline I downloaded off wedding chicks...
Formal Portraits (allow 1 hour - 1 hour 30 min) *TIP* Inform family members and wedding party to stay close after the ceremony. Bride & Groom add bride’s parents Bride & Groom add bride’s parents add siblings Bride & Groom add bride’s parents add siblings add extended family Bride & Groom add groom’s parents Bride & Groom add groom’s parents add siblings Bride & Groom add groom’s parents add siblings add extended family Wedding Party Photos Bride and Groom Photos
_____ Cocktail Hour (allow 1 hour - 1 hour 30 min - going on as Formal Portraits are taken )
_____ Grand Entrance
_____ First Dance
_____ Salads Plated and Speeches *TIP* Serve salads BEFORE speeches. Speeches that run long make for wilting salads and put dinner behind schedule.
_____ Entrées Served *TIP* Serve your vendors as you are served so they can take a break and be back for all of the action! No one likes their picture taken while they are eating so it’s the perfect time.
