    Our ceremony will begin at 4pm and end at 12am although I'm sure people with kids will start to leave around 10pm lol.

    Our wedding is from 3:00PM and the receptions ends at 10pm, which I am happy since I will be super tired and pregnant lol.

    We are aiming for 4pm to 11pm. So 7 hours, shorter the better for me but we’ll see if it ends up being shorter or longer. I’m happy with whatever the duration as long as people are have fun.

    It was beautiful and worked well because I did not want a big fuss just something short and sweet and easy breezy and then that went right into cocktail hour and dinner was at 7pm Smiley heart

    I would say ours was 7 hrs. First person walked in at 5pm and we were out of the venue by 12am. I expected it to run 5pm-10pm but guests came ready to party, it was nice Smiley heart
