Planner’s notes
- 1
Mass ends near 4:00 p.m.. We keep church photos to twenty minutes so the court reaches the reception before the guests.
- 2
The vals is rehearsed twice with the chambelanes, the last time on the venue floor the day before.
- 3
Our production crew loads in at 12:00 p.m., so light, drape and the dance floor are finished before the florist sets the last table.
- 4
Photo coverage runs 10 h 30 min. Most packages are eight hours, so we would start the photographer at 2:45 p.m.
