We started getting ready around 8 am for our 3 pm ceremony, but photographer wanted us ready for 2 pm to do boudoir and bridal party shots.

Everyone was done make up/hair by 12:30 pm so we were able to grab something to eat and chill out before go time! We probably could've started hair and make up at 9 am but that would've been where we were rushed and not ready on time.

10am @ venue (some set up and we’ll have brunch all together guys + girls)
12:30pm hair and makeup ( only myself and MOH getting hair and makeup, MOB and MOG just makeup)

1:00AM Bus Shuttle to the city leaves

1:30AM Bonfire afterparty

5:00AM Bed time for the Groom He had a late night!

We're a long way from confirming this but here's what I'm thinking:

9/10am: hair and makeup start

12pm: photographer/videographer arrive at guys' location for getting ready shots

1pm: photographer/videographer arrive at girls' location for getting ready shots

2/2:30pm: girls head to venue

3pm: guests start arriving

3:30pm: ceremony start

I haven't ironed out times with venue yet but I hoping the timeline is basically:


10am: start getting ready (depending on how long hair and makeup person feels they need, could be earlier)11:00: photographer arrives1pm: leave for horse and carriage first look pics2:30: go to butterfly conservatory 4:00: be back at venue, makeup touch ups if needed4:30: ceremony (pictures after if anyone wants)5:30: walk down hall to reception (more family/guest pictures if they want, photobooth pics here as well if anyone wants some with us)7:00: dinner/thank you for coming speech/2-3 short speeches8:00: cut the cake8:30: first dance then party till 1am

Our venue was one for everything and we took 1 hour for each our families getting ready time and then wedding party. The group shots after the ceremony took a good 45 minutes and with family too. The wedding was 4:30pm and pictures started at 1 for outfits, accessories, suits, accessories, invites, welcome package and ceremony items.

My ceremony starts at 12:30pm and my hair and make up people are coming for 7:00am. I only have myself and three others that need hair and make up but we also need 30 minutes to get to the church and then an hour or so for at home photos.


So I’ll be done hair and make up by 11:00am.
Guests can show up anytime really at the church, most im assuming will come between 12 and 12:20.
I’m hoping to get there at 12:20-12:25!
