The venue I booked only allows me up to 1 hour for my ceremony then immediately following a 4 hour event for cocktail and reception. To book an extra hour would cost me almost an additional $3K so that has to be a last resort if not at all. As I start to plan my wedding more and more, I'm getting frustrated and concerned that 1) I won't have enough time to do everything but mostly 2) the wedding will end too early. Basically I just need reassurance that my timeline is completely normal or at least doable...
