Common questions

What should a wedding day timeline include?

Getting ready, travel, the ceremony, photos, the reception and the send-off, each with a time and who is responsible. Build in buffers so a late moment does not cascade.

Who needs the run sheet?

Your photographer, MC or celebrant, key suppliers and the wedding party. It keeps the day moving without you fielding questions.
