Okay, finally talked to the photographers! We made a timeline and figured on a 6pm wedding. reception will follow at 7, and everyone should be eating no later than 7:30. is this too late? my mom seems to think it's too late. There aren't very many children who are coming. Is it wrong to assume that adults can feed themselves before a wedding?? If it was me, I'd obviously have breakfast and lunch, and maybe a snack later before the wedding. No cocktail hour. Wedding will be 20-30 min long, quick receiving line. We will tell people to start finding seats by 7. DJ will announce us in and toasts, and people eating by 7:30.
Also, needing advice on wording for invitations. everywhere I'm looking says that adding the groom's parents names even if they are only contributing a little money... because they are helping to "host" the wedding. My mom is saying that because they aren't contributing half or more they dont' need to be on the invites.
Help please!!
