A good timeline is generous. It leaves room for a slow first look, a late photographer and the aunt who wants one more photo. This is the shape we start from before we tailor it to you.
Morning
Hair and makeup begin five hours before the ceremony. Photographers arrive ninety minutes before, for details, portraits and the moment you see each other.
Ceremony and golden hour
We aim for a ceremony that ends about two hours before sunset. That leaves time for family photos, a drink with your guests and twenty quiet minutes for couple portraits in the best light of the day.
Reception
Entrances, dinner, speeches between courses, cake and first dance. We keep speeches to three and never more than twenty minutes in total.
