Wedding Day Timeframe . . .

How long between your ceremony and CH?

Do you have a plan for what your guest will do in between or will they be on their own? (given your ceremony is not at your RH)

Anyone know how this 'normally' works if you have a gap?


I have a 330pm full Mass, CH starts at 630, people will have at least an hour to kill so it has me thinking . .

church 3pm (full mass)
CH 7:30pm.
they are about 30-45 minute from each other

i think alot of people will just go home and change to their formal clothes, or those staying in the hotel will go back there. RH will be offering tropical drinks and champagne to those who arrive starting at 630 tho.

we are not doing anything else special!

Since we had so many out of town guests and feared the transportation issue, we decided to get married at the RH, with cocktail hour to follow.

Sorry I am not much help

church is at 5:15, doing a full mass, the priest says he will have us out by 6, 6:15 the latest (he also did my brother's mass and we were out of church by 6)

CH hour begins at 8, RH is about 20 min from church. my mom will give my aunt the keys to her house if people want to go back for a few minutes, but they can pretty much go straight from one to the other.
