Does this look alright? We are not doing, per the FH's request, a first look shoot. We have a 40 minute drive between our venue and the reception area. My girls are going to stay the night at the venue with my in the cabin. The guys will be getting ready there also but in the grooms quarters.
At the ceremony venue:
7-8 Daily devotional (for me) and coffee with the girls
8-2:30 showers and makeup for the 3 bridesmaids, hair and makeup for MOH and myself, mimosas will be involved . There are 5 of us getting ready here. Getting ready photos for bride and groom will be done during this time.
