Avoid starting too early!

It’s not easy to plan an entire day of celebration. Thinking about what your guests can do from morning to night can be challenging. You don’t have to deal with such a dilemma if you schedule your wedding ceremony time in the late afternoon. This is unless you’re planning to have a brunch reception. If you don’t start too early, you relieve yourself from the stress of waking up at dawn to get ready. This will allow you to start the day feeling relaxed and happier as it should.

Make room for flexibility

During your wedding timeline planning, you tend to add as many activities as possible throughout your day. You plan everything up to the last minute in detail, but without taking into consideration any possible delay. We understand the urge to make things happen exactly how you want them to be, but that’s not always the case. You should put some room for some circumstances that are beyond your control. It is best to add an extra 20-30 minutes for each activity in case it takes longer. This way, you won’t be stressed out trying to keep up with your schedule. When you do this, you also give yourself the chance to be present in the moment truly – savor it as much as you can.

Be mindful of your lighting

As photographers, we will always find a way to create wonderful pictures. Nonetheless, having great lighting is an essential factor. For example, the mood of the ceremony setting is directly influenced by the light. For outdoor ceremonies, choose a time later in the day, because, in that way, the sunlight doesn’t fall directly. On the other hand, when it comes to indoor ceremonies choose a venue that has big clear windows so that you would have plenty of natural light. Of course, this varies throughout the seasons, so we would recommend doing quick research to discover when the sun will set on the day of your wedding.
