Wedding Day Tmeline for Couples
This Cover of my Wedding Day Timeline is my favorite!!! My sweet friends Logan and Danny got married at the gorgeous Oak Creek Farm, VA!
If you are like me, you know that a Wedding Day Timeline keeps you organized, on time, and, most importantly, SANE during a wedding day! There is nothing like knowing that you’ve given each part of the day its due time and everyone knows what to do and how much time to do it in. While timelines may be a wonderful idea, it can be overwhelming to put them together! That’s where I come in!
I’ve put together for you a FREE download! You can click THIS link to get the download, but first let me share a few tips with you here that I’ve also included in the download.
Helpful Tips to Customize your Timeline
- Start with the ceremony time and work your way backwards in the day.
- Give your photographer at least 1.5 to capture getting ready details, getting ready shots of your and the guys (if the guys are getting ready in the same location). This is the very minimum. Ideally, you should set aside 2.5 hours to allow for someone running late, changes in weather, or just to give yourselves extra time to enjoy the day. I believe all couples should give themselves ample time to get ready and actually enjoy it!
- First look(s) with your fiance, bridal party, parents or grandparents: 35-45 minutes.
- Bridal party photos: 35-45 minutes.
- Family portraits: 30-45 minutes depending on the size of the family/extended family.
- Portraits of just the couple after the wedding ceremony: At least 25-30 minutes. This is very important especially if you opt out of doing a first look. You want to get beautiful portraits of the two of you before you hit the dance floor! Dinner time is best for this portion of the day because it allow you to be relaxed and you’ll return before anyone knows you were gone. They’ll be too busy enjoying the delicious feast you’ve prepared for them!
This day belongs to YOU!!! Take it back by planning it well!
