Long story short I have to find a new wedding venue.
I was reading over the contract on one of the venues that I am looking at tomorrow, and it says the party must end by 11pm and cleanup/breakdown must be done by 12am.
Originally I wanted the ceremony to start by 6pm because that is when it gets dark in February in Ohio. (Probably earlier than that though.)
But that is only 5 hours total time. Is that enough for Ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing? I hate that strong time restriction.
Should I make the ceremony start at 5pm?
