Need help with times

Ceremony probably around 4:30 -5?

Are you guys having to set up the venue and the decorations also?

View Quoted Comment We'll add little touches but they decorate.

View Quoted Comment That's not to late? I've always been to places where the ceremony is at like 1.

I've never been to a ceremony that started that early but ultimately do you plan on being there till 12am because if you do an early start that seems like a long day for your guests and you. If you start at 4:30 your ceremony would be till 5 then you can go do your pictures and what not and then have dinner by 6-6:15.

Our ceremony is starting at 5PM and our reception will be until about 11/11:30PM, I feel like that should be plenty of time, 6-6 1/2 hours is a pretty sufficient time for the wedding i think.

View Quoted Comment Well that's us planning till 12am we have to pay for every hour after 10. So do you think if we have the ceremony at 430 and the reception ends at 11 that it's plenty of time?

Oh okay so if you have to pay are you willing to pay? I have my venue from 12pm-10pm. We are starting our ceremony at 4 and everyone needs to be our by 10 so no I don't think it's too late. but 4:30-11 is definitely plenty of time.

View Quoted Comment We'd be willing to pay for 1 hour 2 hours are pushing but we could do it. I just dont want the reception to short or to long. We're just trying to find a perfect time

I think 4:30 would be a perfect time if you want to end at 11.

Plus it'll give your groomsmen time to shower up and get ready.

View Quoted Comment Okay! Thank you so much!

Anytime, welcome!

Our wedding started at 4:30 and ended at 10. It was perfect. We had an after party at the bar afterwards for anyone that wanted to attended. Hair and makeup started at 8:00 am. 4:30 would give the groomsmen time to get off work and get to the venue to get ready.

View Quoted Comment Never thought to have an afterparty!

View Quoted Comment Our venue selected the times for us and my husband thought it would be a nice thing for those that wanted to hang out with us more that we wouldn't have to pay more for the space.
