    We haven't done a run-through of ours yet, but it should definitely be under 30 minutes. We're skipping a lot of the traditional stuff and opting for a simple and personal ceremony!

    Love it! I think that's a great amount of time! Are you doing any unity ceremonies during it or just readings?

    We’re going to do the sand unity ceremony. Our pastor has some readings and we’re writing our own vows. We have it pretty timed out.

    Over. Our ceremony will be about an hour long. I’m not even mad about it, after attending other short ceremonies, I really like the longer more formal ceremonies better. Maybe I’m just use to them by now.

    Ours is scheduled for 30 minutes but I’m hoping for 15 or so. I hate being in front of people and the ceremony is just a technicality for us.

    Hoping for 30 but fingers crossed for no more than 45 if it goes longer..Jewish ceremonies are quite involved. Rabbi says no more than 30.

    I think ours is going to be about 45 minutes long. We're writing our own vows, which I still need to work on, so who really knows?

    We have the ceremony space with the venue but ceremony is planned out for 30 so hopefully 30? I don’t see it lasting any longer than that but honestly I don’t see it being that long either
