Timing Questions

Since I am knew to this who getting married thing, I have a couple of logistical questions...

1. How long before the ceremony should I get my hair and makeup done? I do not have a bridal party so I do not have to factor them into the timing.

2. I would rather take our pictures in between the ceremony and reception (kind of old fasion that way). How long should I leave for pictures?

Thanks in advance

what time is your ceremony. You figure about three hours before your ceremony, you should get hair and makeup done, think about travel, distance, etc.

In between ceremony and reception, I would say, at least two hours, it depends, if you get married at the rh then an hour, if not more, build in travel, etc.

Welcome and Congrats! It all depends what time is your ceremony & are they going by you to do your hair & make-up?

For pictures you can also have some down during the beginning of cocktail hour- if you arrive a bit early- that way it wont take away from your reception.
