FAQ About Ultimate Guide to Wedding Planning
How do I create a wedding timeline?
Start with the ceremony time: Determine the time of your ceremony and work backward from there to create a timeline for the rest of the day.
Include travel time: Account for travel time between the ceremony and reception venues, as well as any other locations you may need to visit during the day.
Consider hair and makeup: If you and your wedding party will be getting hair and makeup done professionally, include enough time in the timeline to allow for this.
Plan for photography: Allocate enough time for your photographer to capture all the important moments, such as getting ready, the first look, family photos, and couple portraits.
Schedule the reception events: Plan out the reception events such as cocktail hour, dinner, toasts, cake cutting, and dancing, and assign specific times for each.
Be flexible: Leave some buffer time in the timeline in case things run longer than expected or if you need to make any last-minute adjustments.
Share the timeline: Share the timeline with your wedding party, vendors, and anyone else who needs to be aware of the schedule.
