I've looked all over and most wedding schedules are your typical schedules for Saturday weddings with the reception and ceremony at the same place. So the bullet points of our situation:
• Friday wedding, full Catholic mass
• Reception venue is 10.5 miles from the church
• We'll be getting ready at the reception venue so we can do 'first look' pictures, bridal party pics, and family pictures.
• We have the photographer for 8 hours and have to shut the music off at the reception venue at 11pm.
Those are the biggest factors I think. Has anyone had a similar situation? Anybody have suggestions?
